I stumbled upon this charming vintage store today, and I couldn’t be happier that I did. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by an atmosphere that feels like stepping back in time. The space is thoughtfully curated, with an impressive selection of clothing, accessories, and home decor from various eras. What stood out to me most was the quality of the items. Everything looked well-maintained, and you can tell the owners have a passion for finding unique, timeless pieces. I found a beautiful leather jacket from the 70s that fits like a dream and even spotted a few rare vinyl records I hadn’t seen elsewhere. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, happy to share stories about the origins of certain pieces and even give styling tips. It’s clear they genuinely love what they do, which made the experience even better. If you’re a fan of vintage or just love discovering one-of-a-kind treasures, this place is an absolute must-visit. I can’t wait to go back and see what new gems they’ve added!

Walked by this store today in the mall with my son, I was outraged to see the workers harassing and arguing with a group of children. Its a shame, especially because one of the workers was wearing a veteran hat, meant to symbolize serving and protecting the country, but instead this scrawny green haired gentleman wearing it, honestly a disgrace, raising his voice and “verbally assaulting” the group of young gentleman. Honestly despicable and disgusting how an individual like this can get a job that requires talking to people, kids especially

Owner Response

Hey Jeff sorry to see hear that but we were actually filming a skit for our Instagram no one was being harassed or “verbally assaulted” we appreciate your concern If you have any issues please call the store to directly speak with the owner
