Some well-known brands. I gotta come back and scoop a leather jacket when the weather cools. This shopping trip I scooped up a fun sheepskin steering wheel cover. My grandma had one when I was young & it was nostalgic finding one for myself. Super soft & keeps my steering wheel from getting too hot to touch in the Summer. Also got the most wonderful smelling candle. I'd say this is one of the better boutiques downtown has to offer. As for service, I was pleasantly helped by a nice Asian employee. Knowledgeable and helpful. The owner (I assume was the older woman) seems a bit more reserved...she shoved my sheepskin into a small bag with my candle. Probably would have been nicer if she could have put tissue around it and given me a bigger bag. You kinda need to be a "people-person" if you're in retail. Just a thought...even so, I'm sure I'll return.

There are so many shops to poke around in and MM's is where I found myself on this trip spending some of my money! It's basically impossible to walk by without going inside... there are so many interesting things in the window display. This time a tshirt caught my eye and I was able to walk a few more steps before realizing I'd become fixated on the shirt would need to buy them as gifts. So I turned around and in I went! The store is nice and warm! The woman helped me find the shirts in the sizes I wanted and while they were more expensive than I am used to paying ( $35 for a kids t shirt) j couldn't help but love the print. Plus Nevada city isn't cheap, so you know what you're getting into... it also feels nice to shop at a local business... given I do all my shopping online. I recommend you take a look inside and see if you find your own little treasure!!!
