I bought my first locally made dress from them last month and I adore it!!! I saw a post on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/artsandlettersspringfield) about some of their newest stock and loved the look of a dress by Alicia Mae. So I rushed to the store, because it needed to be mine! I tried it on and to my dismay it did not fit the way I wanted :( I was quite disgruntled until Laura and Meg told me they could get in direct contact with the designer! I'm so use to the "if the store doesn't have it, you are out of luck" mentality, that this was a completely new and exciting concept! FANTASTIC! So the wonderful ladies of Arts & Letters got me in contact with Alicia Mae and the very next day I was getting measured for my very own custom dress! HOW COOL! The dress was very affordable, very well crafted, I got to pick out the fabric, fit my body like a glove, and all three ladies were so easy to work with. Go support local art and all the hard work of these lovely ladies!

It's a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Springfield. After work I usually look forward to stopping in to just relax, browse books and admire all of the crystals, stones and gems. ( I work a few blocks from their location). I always feel I can trust in the store's advice and reputation as a Crystal shop. I enjoy the friendliness of staff and their knowledge. All of the staff members are very patient and strive to help you with every facet of your shopping experience. I absolutely love their Crystal Collection!

Like most stores of this type, they have a ton of tacky junk and a few surprisingly cute things for a buck. I always find something that garners compliments and is of decent quality given the price. This makes it a fun place to pick up accessories for 1-2 seasons that you don't feel guilty tossing in the donation pile later. As for the more expensive items in the store, like camisoles and big plastic purses...I can't tell you who buys that stuff but it's not me.

Recently bought a turquoise necklace piece that looks good with pretty much everything. I have lots of pairs of jeans from them and they fit so nice. And I have gotten my fair share of tshirts, sweaters, blouses over the years too and love every item. Such a treat every time I go in because I don't just leave with cute new items, I also leave feeling cared for by the team. The absolute best boutique in Springfield, hands down.

Their proofing process is hands-on and personalized -- you're communicating with a real person who interprets feedback (like, "can that font be less narrow?") and adjusts the proof accordingly. They're old-school -- great on the phone and via email during business hours. Always friendly and professional. Prints arrive in a timely manner, and packaged well.

This is a fairly new, great little intelligentsia-friendly bookstore. Walking in at first, I…read morethought maybe the inventory was low and the shelves hadn't been put up yet, as I'm used to used book stores that have piles of books everywhere with boxloads of garage sale crap that one has to wade through like to find diamonds in the rough. I usually get a kick out of that feeling until a half-hour later when the weight of utter futility has set in and I realize, indeed, I'm not finding anything decent and I learn what it must be like to live in a Soviet-style dictatorship where someone has cruelly banned the Vonneguts and whatnot. That type of materialistic capitalist hoarding hasn't set in at this bookstore, and least not as-of the date I went last. They looked to specialize more in classics, notable modern authors, and well-reviewed contemporary works. Out of all the used book stores I've been to (a fair amount), this one is the furthest left on the quality-quantity balance, and that's not a bad thing. Prices seemed reasonable and the books look to be in good condition. Staff seemed chill and it sounds like they accept store credit if you have good material to give them (I have convinced myself that the bartering for property rights in material goods is for ironic purposes only). If you feel any comradeship with those with liberal arts pedigrees or are just one of those folks who needs more than potboiler books of the petit bourgeoisie, this place would be an excellent option. Party approved.
