I work in sustainability so the concept hit home and have no problem investing in quality or designer items, but when we walked in, the blonde associate looked us up and down and didn't greet us. We were the only ones in the store, so I made a point to smile, say hello, and ask how she was doing - but she was dismissive and rude. She didn't offer to show us anything or engage at all, so we left without making a purchase. I bought a Prada bag instead - Best of luck to you.

Not many stores were open; but thankfully this one was, and we found a few cute things on sale. They have women's and men's clothing and a small selection of accessories and gift items added in. The woman working was very friendly, and helpful....but not pushy. It was a great shopping experience.

My fiancé ended up buying a Johnnie-O button down that was advertised as 30% off. When we got home, he decided to look at the Johnnie-O website because he loved the shirt so much and wanted to order more. We were shocked and disappointed to see that the original price of the shirt straight from Johnnie O was less than what we paid at Southern Way WITH 30% off ($95 on sale at the store ($125 regular) versus $80 full price from the brand site). It's extremely disappointing that a local store is marking up their clothing that much. We spend a lot of time in Highlands as we have family in Lake Toxaway, but we will not return to Southern Way after this incident.

You have to be over 21 to go past the little gate and sit in one of the three chairs.) The bar serves beers, cocktails, and coffee type drinks. I didn't order a beverage this time, but if I'm ever back, doing that is on my to do list. The guy behind the bar was really nice, and he worked the regular cash register too. The prices are pretty fair, I don't think I saw anything I considered outrageous. It's a good shop to browse about and pick up some trinket souvenirs. It's bright and clean if a little cramped in the space. In addition to that, there's jewelry, clothing, artwork in the form of statues, stickers and wall art.
