I always stumble by here when I’m visiting my friend who bartends nearby…
Boutiques are all about curation, and they do that well here, offering a unique collection of affordable jewelry, gifts, hats and bags.
One of those great little places that you pass by and mean to stop in. This one is worth stepping into…
Stays open late.

Supercute accessories boutique that’s actually AFFORDABLE.
I stopped in on a Sunday afternoon — it was quiet, uncrowded, and they were playing jazz music. What most caught my eye was the line of charm necklaces: I tried on a silvertone high heel shoe on a long chain that looked better on the hanger than me… but it was only $ 15, and interestingly-​wrought! Other necklaces were from $ 10 – 40, depending on size and complexity.
They had a number of ballet-​themed charms, and the one I eventually picked out was a gold vermeil romantic tutu on a gold chain for $ 30, which I found eminently reasonable. I mean, it was reversible! And the detail! The tutu had a scoopneck in the front and corset lacing in the back!!! The gentleman who helped me checkout, Ki, told me he had made that one himself, and showed me his section. :)
The store seems to be a co-​op or collective of sorts, where various artists have space to showcase their creations and take turns to man the store. Not everything is as affordable, though much is beautiful — I fell in love with a silk scarf that, alas, was $ 165, and noticed some fascinator headpieces for $ 98 — but it is nice to know that there is a good selection of stuff that *is* — and if you’re less cheap than I am, then hey, your options are even greater!
If you’re looking for a special gift for someone, this is a good place to check out. You never know what you’ll find, and it might even be within your budget, whatever your budget’s sized at! I’ll probably make it a point to stop in every time I’m in the ‘hood, just to see.
