I am usually drawn to shops like PHM and I cannot believe that I've not been here for a visit since…read moremoving to the area 2 years ago. I am SO glad I popped in after brunching at The Peppermill for some retail self care therapy because OMG. There's something here for everyone. The CBD products had me flocking to the back wall to try a few items as I was looking for a balm for a sore shoulder. Love the zodiac Zodica collection and I def got me some Cancer items (lotion and perfume) as well as gifts for my goddaughter. Love the retro wall too. If you're in SGF, don't hesitate to pop in here because you'll fall in love the way I did.

I originally heard about The Pretty Hot Mess way over a year ago when they were located on Warren…read moreStreet in Glens Falls, NY. Recently, PHM relocated to a much larger space and has increased inventory tremendously. This is a true small business that has become successful within a couple of years through hard work, tenacity and solid business acumen. I have purchased several items from PHM for myself and as gifts for family. I tend to lean towards the essential oil blends and some of the CBD products - but there are tons of other items to choose from including clothing, books, yummy candies/snacks, protein/sports powders...even cool stuff for pets. My personal favorite essential oil blend is called "Calm Your Ass Down" (yes...I love the names of these products as well). This blend smells awesome and I use it with my pre-bedtime routine (it's a small roll-on that I dab behind my ears and on my wrists). I've also used it on especially stressful work days. This particular blend does not contain any CBD, but many other options do. I'm a big fan of CBD products in general - as long as they're high quality and the source is known. The owner of PHM is adamant about quality and purity in her products (as many of these she brews herself). Other CBD products are also available from PHM - I really like Luce Farms (a Vermont based company) and she carries several of Luce's items. Two of the other essential oil blends that Angel (that's the owner's name) sells/makes (that I've used) are: "Not Today" and "Joint Juice". Everything works as advertised and really helps with my pain relief/preventative care. I will mention - again - that PHM is truly a "boutique" that's jam packed all kinds of really interesting items. Almost everything is available for purchase via website or app (yes...there's an app for that!). So, if you're like me and living like a hermit, order stuff and ship it to your home. One more thing - Angel and PHM get involved with local community matters and are always giving back in different ways. It's been fun and exciting to watch the growth of this local small business. Visit the website and read Angel's backstory - interesting stuff.

This past weekend my youngest daughter and I drove up from…read more Western Pennsylvania to visit my eldest daughter (and finally pick up the rest of my belongings). Always find myself remiscing because the house my eldest daughter lives in --- it belonged to my Grandparents. Such an enjoyable visit with Janet --- I agree that her items are easier to find and even though the space is saller than across the street. Very knowledgeable about the items she is selling and helpful to both daughters as they both picked up a different version of the stone. Even though my cdaughter s are both in thir mid are in their 40s --- I had to laugh because of the look of wonder in their eyes and unbeknownst to either one - each chose an opal. That was my Aunt Mary Ann's favorite gem. Janet is so hospitable, friendly, informative and accomodating. On the way home from Hoosick Falls, my youngest began to hint about the next time - HA!

We turned the corner off what seemed like endless Farm roads and all of a sudden A TOWN... There was a giant sign that said Home - Made jewelry 20% off, and kidding I asked "Wanna go in" to which she said YES, so we pulled over, parked and went in. We literally spent an hour with Janet in the shop, SHE IS GREAT!!! We continued to talk about Janet for the rest of our girls weekend, that I could spend a weekend with her and hear her stories & just be in her presence! I was very happy to see all the diverse items that she promotes and inspires in the middle of what might be a less than liberal area, She sells and donates the proceeds of Haitian art back to the Haitian communities. She had SO MUCH jewelry in her shop and if you would mention something she INSTANTLY knew where it was on a random table. You could spend all day in there and still not see all she had. My sister liked one thing and instantly she made it into something else. She was just great & I want to hang out with her & hear her stories! She was a great soul and really had beautiful items! She is moving across the street and we told her we would definitely come back next time we are in town.

I have been to other Eddie Bauer locations and yesterday was the first time I've ever been to this one in Lake George.

It was pretty busy and there was a long line to check out, but I'll definitely try this location again when I need to either buy another gift or treat myself to something new.

Due to a medical condition I suffer from ice cold feet and this was heavenly! Go take a drive if your not too far. Very cute shop. I love shopping at family run boutiques!

Since I usually shop in Beverly Hills, I would not consider this boutique "high end" ie you won't be finding Chanel and Louboutin here. But it is definitely "higher end" than a fair amount of boutiques in Saratoga. Some designers they feature are: Alice + Olivia DVF Vince Citizens of Humanity Rachel Zoe Gold Hawk William Rast Elizabeth & James Michael Lauren Gentlefawn Art of Henri Alkemie MiH Left on Houston What I love: Local designer goods--unique, one of a kind, made from the heart. I also love the hats. The hats for racing season are outrageous and so fun to look at and try on! What I like: the quality of the clothing here is pretty good. They also have bathroom they allow patrons to use, thank god! The bathroom is standard and clean. Service: I only met two women who work here. One is the owner, she is very helpful, knowledgable, and efficient.... although she is not the warmest of people. The other woman is very sweet. Prices: prices are reasonable for the brands they are carrying. Overall would I come back? Perhaps, if the atmosphere would be a little more warm and welcoming.
