Charming Charlie – Ridgeland

I buy ALL of my jewelry from here! I always spend close to $ 100 bucks just on jewelry here. Their clothes shoes and purses are cute! I love how everything is color coordinated. You can’t go wrong here.

If you want cheap jewelry and accessories, this is the place for you.
If you want to be treated with a modicum of respect, however, I would recommend that you stay away. I’ve never had particularly kind service here but today took the cake. The start of the checkout process was something of an interrogation involving every bit of personal information they could possibly ask for. They asked for things repeatedly and asked me to double check everything (lots of mistakes). After that, running my card was something of a fiasco, the first two times it didn’t work at all even though it went through the whole process (I’ll have to check for excess charges now).
To pile insult upon tedium, the manager helping with the transaction looked at me and said «well you’re a testy one aren’t you?» If that were ever an appropriate thing to say to a paying customer who had complied perfectly with your Byzantine instructions, I’m sure everyone would agree that it is incredibly tacky to say after the payment has been received.
It is my deepest regret that I did not get the name of the short white lady manager.

Love their selection — you can always find something go with any outfit! Also love that I can find a great purse for under $ 30.

Charming Charlie’s is in the Renaissance shopping center in Ridgeland — that new shopping center that everyone is flocking to because Northpark is becoming kind of «thuggish.» Much like what happened to Northpark when Metro became too «thuggish.»
Anyway, Charming Charlie’s sells cute dresses, jewelry, handbags, shoes, hats, sunglasses, and other accessories, all organized by color. For some reason every item I saw in there (no matter what it was) kept coming up at $ 24.99. I don’t know about that. Most of the rings in there were priced at $ 9.99 and their necklaces were priced around $ 17.99.
Everything in there was very classy. I walked out with a $ 204 bill. I recommend this store if you’re looking for something nice to wear to work or to wear out on a Saturday night. Very cute things.
