Yesterday, Friday November 8, 2024 I sang songs written by author/musician Heather Buchanan and Tracy Kash for Heather's newest novel titled, VICTORS. It is about Black musicians who went to France to help fight in World War I. Ultimately, they were largely responsible for our victory and when they weren't fighting they were playing music, sharing the new jazz sound which influenced not only Europe but the world. My dress, purse, fan, long strand of pearls and headpiece, all purchased from the Peacock Room in the Park Shelton were a smash hit! And as always the ladies who work there had exquisite eyes for helping me put the perfect look together. This place is a gem! Thank you again! Dr. Angela Celeste May

My mom purchased the most special black cape/jacket, beautiful black leather heels, and the perfect Patricia Nash woven basket bag that I can't wait to borrow this summer. The staff is genuinely friendly and helpful! One woman in particular was so fun as she jumped from group to group. The prices reflect the special pieces they offer, but it's still a great value.

The thing I like the most is that they are curated from small businesses.

Follow on social media for updates on events and offerings. Tip: you can buy online for shipping to your home or pick up in store. It's great for those who like to shop online. Me included. Detroit Monopoly was my favorite online order. Pleasant staff. Lots to choose from with affordable pricing.

We didn't have to look far, as Rozwell was lying on a display table right near the entrance! He is so cute and sniffed our hands and got a few pets. I didn't bug him too much as he seemed content to just nap. We learned that he is 20(!!!) years old and there is another shop cat that we didn't see. Moving on, this store is super cool. They have tons of interesting things including lots of crystals, clothing, accessories, gifts, jewelry, and more. The shop also has their production facility in the back. I wonder if they do tours! They are known for using actual manhole covers in Detroit to make prints on clothing, which I think is really cool and would make a great souvenir for any Detroit lover. I had a blast looking around at everything and loved some of the vintage prints on shirts, as well as what I assume are original designs. This is a great shop for finding a gift for the coolest person in your life, or for you, because you are cool. We bought a bag of Kitty Town coffee to take home and I'm excited to come back the next time I'm in town.

Let me start by saying that I'm not a fan of the style that Glitz & Ears has which is why I went…read morewith 3 stars and not 4. The name of the store is exactly what the store provides. Glitz and glam is the theme! Lots of bedazzled products right and left that you may need some sunglasses upon entering. The store itself is large and has lots of different products. From costume jewelry, shoes, purses, clothing, and more. This is a perfect store for a homecoming, prom, or other special event and you need some bold and fancy jewelry. I wouldn't say that the store is good for staple pieces or every day wear. As I mentioned the style is very glam. Dare I say it falls on the gaudy side? A few pieces here and there are great to buy, but if you bought every single piece and wore it at once, I think it would be a bit too much and too loud. Again, unless that is your style then go for it! Staff are usually friendly. Their exchange and return policy isn't that great. However, I was able to return a Christmas gift that I received and was able to get store credit on a gift card. They also have a rewards program. But be warned if you pay with a gift card and your out-of-pocket cost isn't high enough, then you can't get loyalty reward points for it. A tiny area is in the back for clearance. They also have dressing rooms to try on clothing. Overall it's a fun store to visit, but depends on your taste and what exactly you are looking to buy.

Nothing is really high end but a printed t-shirt $55 minimum.... Reproduced hand tees at that... for vintage that lives up but reproduced?! No. I love the style here and the merchandising was incredible but damn. The sticker shock never stopped. I checked so many tags as I loved more than I didn't. The employee didn't greet us or smile... no eye contact. Which was odd. Seemed the assumption was we weren't the typical clients. Nothing size inclusive and even things labeled size Large... was not. Sad and disappointing honestly. Love the shop but go with a full wallet and small waist line

I walked in and gasped, I had 5 dresses to try in 2 minutes. The first one I tried I fell in love with. The most beautiful dress I have EVER seen. I quickly found my second dress for the rehearsal which Rachel picked out. I would have never have tried it myself and I immediately felt beautiful in it. All of the staff worked so hard to make it a wonderful experience. I am 60 and my body is not what it use to be. I was so discouraged with the dresses on the market that made me feel dumpy or showed too much skin. The staff helped me feel wonderful and I have the right to look beautiful whatever your body is. I left with a new attitude of dressing thanks to them. The store is absolutely stunning. It is worth the effort. I also think the prices were not outrageous as the quality and workmanship is wonderful. What are you waiting for? GO NOW!
