I hope she finds one that suits her as well. Not only does this shop feature Maria's beautiful jewelry but she also takes consignments from other designers and features a host of fun, funky, earth-friendly items. I have bought gifts for myself and a host of family and friends here over the last 6 years. If you can get in before the doors are shut, almost everything is 15-30% off. I hope the next chapter is great.

Stopped in on a trip to New Orleans to check out this little shop. It was a great experience and…read morewas treated really good by who I'm assuming was the owner. Lots of really neat hand crafted merchandise. I bought a ring made out of old parts of a NASA space shuttle and my wife bought a nice handcrafted candle. Was a great experience!!

Good service. Fair prices and some hidden gems. Very fun store to shop for cool vintage items.read more

Incredibly well curated, high quality vintage with first-class service! I don't usually venture to…read morethe FQ, but had to feed my vintage clothing obsession, knowing that this shop is associated with New Orleans' beloved Trashy Diva brand. This place was an absolute treasure trove of beautiful clothing and accessories. Y'all, this is not your average "Talbot's from the 90's" stock that many "vintage" stores contain (and yes I understand that 90's qualifies as vintage these days!) This is the place to go for a show-stopping special occasion dress from the 1940s, with intact jeweled buttons and a peplum detail at the waist. Or a flowing silk robe from the 1920s with a bold print of fans and florals. Or a beautifully carved sweater clip to accompany the fur-collared cashmere from 1950s. You get the picture! Now, this shop will have a higher price point than your average dig-through-the-rack vintage, because literally every piece is a gem. That said, the pricing is incredibly fair for what you are purchasing! I will treasure the pieces I bought from my visit last weekend, and can't wait to return! I also want to add that the shop employee Kim was just top notch! She was knowledgeable of each item and a joy to talk to. This place is a MUST VISIT for any vintage lover!!

Every piece was absolutely gorgeous, and felt amazing to the touch. They had so many beautiful pieces, from bras and undies, to corsets, teddies, and garters. Every piece was unique and intricately designed, with most having a vintage twist to them. I saw pieces that reminded me of flappers and others that reminded me of old Hollywood.

Felt called to make a second stop, and my shopping experience was lovely. Kay and Sean made great conversation, and helped me find a cute top & zodiac necklace.

It's a fun, trendy boutique-- think outfits that are perfect for a fancy birthday, sexy party, or you're just a bold, strong independent who don't need no man and want to look super fly everyday. They carry brands such as Wildfox--- have a nice selection of pasties to wear alone or under some of their more sheer selections. In the back of the store, there's often a sale going on. I usually hit up the sale section, because some of the stuff is overpriced for the quality of what you're getting. I got an awesome cheetah jumpsuit, super sparkly mini dress, and a sexy lil bikini--- all on sale for less than half of the original price. This place is located in a fun shopping section of Magazine St. too, so lots of other retail as well as dining options available!

Was disappointed today, my go to shop for gifts. The item I went to purchase happened to be on…read moresale, last month I purchased but full price. Of course, I was delighted. Unfortunately, when I asked about gift wrapping I was told sale items are not eligible. I offered to pay extra, I was on the way to a party. I was refused, put in a plain bag, no tissue. When I mentioned in the future about charging I was told, my boss has owned this shop 20 years so I'm not telling her how to run it. Really? As a customer for years and only suggestions, not appropriate response. So, instead of at least putting in a bag with their logo for advertising I had to buy a gift bag and they didn't get any recognition. Common sense should prevail.

This is one of those shops that I can't believe I haven't reviewed, as I've stopped in here for…read moreyears. They have plenty of moderately price jewelry and housewares and doodads that make great gifts...if you have the girly sorts to purchase for. Another I like about this shop, it's not packed to the roof with stock. You can actually peruse without being overwhelmed and move without fearing that you're going to take out a shelving unit of glassware. WHEW. The staff has always been helpful without being push and there is often free wine while you shop (BONUS). Sometimes I hit the jackpot and sometimes not. The upstairs (ok 3 steps) back room is a separate business so be prepared to use your card twice if you want merchandise from both spaces.

If you are into beads, and you are in NOLA, this is your place to go. Located on Magazine Street,…read morethis business is easy to find. Like many of the business along Magazine, this one is situation in what once was a house. Just letting you know this, so you know what you are looking for. Once inside, you will be overwhelmed by the amount of beads they offer, in addition to a lot of other items that the person who enjoys making jewelry will need to create their craft. There is truly tons and tons of beads and other items in this shop. In addition, you can also find pre-made pieces of jewelry. All of which are beautifully handcrafted. Meaning, it is a great place to buy that gift for that special person in your life or for yourself. One thing to keep in mind, once inside this business, due to all of the items they have to offer and all of the customers who love this shop, you may find it to be a little be crowded. That's just something to keep in mind, as you can feel pretty cramped inside, if there's a lot of shoppers. Overall, this is one of the best bead shops around. Definitely worth the visit.

OMG! So OVERWHELMING! You have to walk up steps. The store looks like you're stepping into…read moresomeone's home. When I stepped through that door into this magical place, I was overwhelmed. Too many beads to look at. This place is stuffed with beads. All kinds, but everything is organized. There is a method to the madness. Staff recommend that you grab one of the small baskets that include small plastic bags and a pen. You place your selection in the baggy and write down how much it costs on the outside of the baggy. There are strings of beads hanging from the walls. Beads and clasps in bowls and dishes of various types, shapes, and sizes. A large assortment of chains, cut to desired length. Everything necessary to create your own custom jewelry. There were some serious bead shoppers in the shop. One of the ladies was assisting a mother and daughter duo the entire time I was looking around. They were still there when I made my purchases and exited. I purchased the cutest miniature tea cup and saucer and a faux pearl in a shell. There's even a back room where things have already been made. The staff are friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable. The back of the business card: Beads; jewelry; findings; beading supplies; classes; repairs; charms; kids and adult parties; custom designs; wedding jewelry.

This day they were having a warehouse sale and soooo many items were $10 - $20. Too bad for me the items I really like did not fit me. I was surely ready to spend more coins!!

This is so great for a midsized girl like me that is sometimes a large, sometimes an XL. Most boutiques don't carry XL. I also appreciate that there are midsize mannequins so I can visualize how the clothes might look. The prices are also really reasonable! Think like $30-50 per item. Some other stores nearby are like $300 an item. The lady working was very nice but not intrusive, she let me browse at my own pace but let me know she was there if I needed anything. I'm definitely coming back next time I need to treat myself to something cute.
