What a beautiful gem we wandered into on our walk home this evening. I’m so thankful my partner and I walked in here to explore; we left with such a lovely story to tell. You can see Violet’s heart and soul in the store and we can’t wait to be back to see the new things she adds. Thank you Violet for the warmest welcome to Sunnyside! We appreciate you so much. Sincerely, Kayla and Alejandro

Bliss is hands-down my favorite shop in the city. Everything is well-curated, very fairly priced, and ethically sourced. The owner, Violet, is an absolutely lovely person who has been in Sunnyside for years, and her shop has become an important part of the community. It’s my go-to place for gifts, accessories, and unique clothing and home goods.

Bliss is a special place just like the neighborhood it is in!! The selection is fun and unique. If you are lucky enough to go in when the owner, Violet, is in then you will feel the warmth and energy she puts into the shop.
Thank you so much Emilie for taking time out to share your positive experience of the shop! I am so grateful for your kind words.

One of my favorite places to shop in NYC. She has such a fun assortment of real vintage and vintage-inspired pieces, cute accessories like hats, socks, sunglasses, and hair bands/clips, and little trinkets/tchotchkes. The owner Violet is so sweet too! She clearly takes a lot of pride and puts a lot of effort into her shop—she even does all of the window displays herself. I’m proud to own a few really cool accessories and a really beautiful hand-dyed silk dress and matching shawl that I purchased here. Never had a negative experience here, it’s all good vibes!
Thank you so very much for taking time out to write about your positive experience! I am so happy you like the shop!

If you’re looking for clothes, a gift, (for others, or even for yourself!) or even some nice stuff for home, make sure to check out Bliss. I don’t know how Violet does it, but she always has a well-curated selection of goods that range from food, tea, pantry, drink mixes, housewares, to clothing, jewelry, books, toys, and accessories. I’ve found button-up shirts for myself there, socks, bags, and so much great various and sundry goods for all ages that I make it a point to visit her store if I know I need something. She stocks a lot of local, handmade, and ethically made/eco friendly goods as well as a rotation of limited-edition flavored chocolates by Raaka and so much more; her shop is always changing so no two visits will quite be the same. Stop by and stop by often, you will be amazed!
Aww thank you so much Anthony! I’m so glad you enjoyed the shop and grateful for you taking the time out to share your positive experience! Really appreciate it !!

Thank you so much Myrna for taking time out to share your positive experience at the shop! I am so so happy that you find the shop to be a special place ! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

So kitschy and adorable it hurts. I want to hug this store. It's CHAOS but filled with pickles and muppets and essential oils and vintage clothes. Everything is handmade or vintage like the name says and fair trade, equitable pay, all the good stuff like stuff should be. I bought 2 rings and lovely complex essential oil blend.
Aww thank you so much Carolyn! I’m so pleased you loved the shop and store hugs are always welcome!! Thank you for taking the time out to share your experience! 💜💜💜
Monica Martinez
The best shop in Sunnyside (and they’re dog friendly!) My pup and I never walk out of there empty handed —she’s always devastated when we walk by and the store is closed. So many amazing gems at Bliss. Could not recommend it more!
Thank you so much Monica! We are so lucky to be loved by Sunnyside Pups! Thank you so much for sharing your positive experiences! I am so very glad you love the shop!!
