My go-to gift shopping destination for everyone (including myself). 5 star gifts, 5 star service,…read moreand 5 stars for being local. Shop here for a gift for anyone on your list, have it wrapped, sneak in something for yourself, and you're good to go. (Insider tip toward the bottom)
***They also have a location on Metairie Rd. that is more convenient for me, but no Yelp page for that newer location yet. That said, I love both locations equally. They both have easy in/out parking situations, rotating inventory, and helpful staff.
While most people probably think this to be a store for women, I have definitely found gifts here for men (that bar ware selection is impressive and the themed socks are winners every time!). Their selection for children is full of books, toys, and clothes - so great for any occasion. Over the years I've stopped in for gifts for grads, congratulations, baby showers, children's birthdays, colleague & client birthdays / thank yous, family birthday / celebration / anniversary, all things holiday, all things Mardi Gras, and weddings.
INSIDER TIP: Yes, they have very expensive items, but they also have gifts starting at $5. Stop at the counter, let them know your price point, who you're shopping for, etc., and they'll walk you around the store giving you ideas. They are GREAT for ideas. They know their selection, and they're super helpful. They even wrap gifts by request. One-stop-gift shopping at it's best!
When they first opened years ago I heard about them from a coworker. I stopped in for a gift for a 1st birthday (which was a huge hit), and I was pleasantly surprised by their selection for wedding, kitchen, kids, bar ware, serving ware, clothing accessories and jewelry. Now, years later, they've only added to the amazing selection with one-of-a-kind local accessories (Saints, LSU, Mardi Gras, Snowball, etc), purses, suitcases, ornaments, art, socks, ties, and even more in the categories they started out with... the list really does go on and on with something for everyone. My gifts are always well received, and people always want to know "where did you find this?" It's taken me so long to write a review because it's hard to give away my secrets, ha! Seriously, though, I tell everyone to shop here. They even have an online store for added convenience. Love seeing how well they've grown and looking forward to shopping here for years to come!
