I stopped in here at the suggestion of a friend when I was looking for a new pair of jeans. I…read moretotally would have walked right past it if I wasn't told to come here, because I just assume everything on the peninsula (other than food/drinks) is "tourist pricing". I'm so glad I stopped in! They had a variety of designer-brand jeans at discounted prices and the assistant was extremely helpful. When I struggled to find some that fit "just right", she brought a few pairs and even suggested that I try a smaller size--I guffawed (really? that's flattering she'd think I'd fit into THOSE, but hahah, yeah right!)--well, they ended up being PERFECT, and I walked out with those jeans in my hand. I'll totally be back!

This is a funky little shop. Most of the shops in the Old Port now are pricey but Expressly Trends…read morehas brand name jeans and clothing for really affordable prices. It can be hit of miss so sometimes you go in and find nothing and other times you go in and love everything. It all depends on what they are able to get in stock so you have to give it a couple of chances before you write it off. They have AJ jeans which are my favorite and they are usually around $300 but sometimes you can get them for as little as $40 which is amazing. I have also found Frye boots there for $50 or so. The women who work in there are super friendly and super helpful as well so it always pleasant to go in there. Whenever I am shopping in the Old Port I try to stop in there first to see what I can find before I go spend a fortune at the other high end boutiques downtown. If you are local check back regularly because you never know what steals you might find. :)

It's gone through a change in ownership since my last review. While some of the items have changed, most has remained the same. The inventory has definitely grown and there's not as many "local Maine" items as there was. But it's all high quality, hand picked special things that need to find a home in your house. I just know whomever does the shopping to stock this store, is living their absolute best life when they go out on the hunt to source their products.

A few steps up and we opened the door to a Pandora's box of goodies! Cool vibe with good music to accompany your shopping adventure. Cashier and one other person walking the floor and available for any questions you may have Not looking for anything particular but one never knows what treasure they will find here. Clearly marked racks made finding sizes and designs easy. Prices were good, some items were priced well below what I anticipated while other pieces were spot on worth wise. Everything I looked at was clean and in good shape, ready for a new home. Really though the purple furry jacket would have been the cats meow for his GF but we passed it by. I'm sure someone will give it a good home

Incredible and organized selection with so many TOP notch finds…read more Also, FINALLY a vintage store that is organized by size. I can't even begin to name how many pieces at other (non size organized) stores that I've fallen in love with and realized would not fit me. As a final thing that's sent this into 5 stars- it has been a long time since I've been to a vintage shop with such a high level of size inclusivity. As someone who has fluctuated in size throughout the years (yet my love of vintage remains), being able to shop in the xl - plus range was an absolute dream. If I lived in the area, I would be there on a biweekly basis because I just know I would keep finding incredible things.

A lot cheaper than chain furniture stores that claim to sell refurbished or reused items as furniture, cart tables etc. They also have some nice jewelry and art. It is two store fronts full of stuff, nicely arranged. Staff isn't in your face. Hard to walk around with so many items, but it is worth it. My son loved playing with the large gongs they had. Just a fun store.

They make everything by hand, or it's imported from other artisans. I first stumbled upon them while searching for some local cortado glasses. We found the perfect ones at Ember and still use them weekly -- they're our favorites! We've returned a few times, and the staff is always kind and welcoming. Our last find was an oil bottle dispenser. We had wanted a special one for a while, but couldn't find the "right" one until we saw one at Ember. I hope they stay in business for years to come!

Even though we didn't buy anything, she helped us find a great local lobster restaurant, giving us three choices that locals prefer. Super nice lady! The goodies inside that I was most interested included a miniature tea set that said "Delft Pottery" on the bottom, some very old and tiny spoons, and pretty pocket watches. My uncle was looking for watch fobs, which she didn't have, but if you give her time, I bet she'll add them to her collection... I collect antique dolls and toys, and there were few of these items in her collection, but she did have a neat little trike from the turn of the century. It was just not what I was looking for at the time. Since the little shop didn't have exactly what we needed, I'll give four stars, but I want to say that the kind and friendly attitude of the lady running the store is worthy of five stars! Thank you, Megan A. for your kind advice on lobster restaurants!
