Gretchen Hulse, the designer and shop owner, has been…read moredoing beautiful clothing for over a decade now, and I own pieces from the early days through last Thursday (my latest trip to her store). She does craft shows, too. Her slogan for the clothes is, "The clothes we love to live in," and it's really appropriate. There are pants, dresses, skirts, all kinds and lengths of tops and tunics, gorgeous outerwear (I bought one winter coat from her about nine years ago, and I have worn it --literally--all over the world, and it never fails to get all kinds of compliments.). Gretchen's clothes are beautiful and well-made (made in America, too), and they wear forever and ever. Her prices are fair, and when she has a sale--WOW! I have taken my sisters and my friends to her craft shows and her store, and all of them love her clothing and wear it. We love to live in Crescent Moon clothing!

I stumbled upon this furniture and home goods store on accident, the day after Thanksgiving. While…read morehoards were waiting in line at big box chain super stores, I had the pleasure of shopping in a well-curated store with attention to detail and customer service in spades. I wanted EVERYTHING that was in the store (settling on a Midcentury Modern desk w/ accompanying chair). There are several chairs, sofas, side tables and cabinets to choose from...and enough light fixtures, glassware, framed art and pillows to customize to your aesthetic. Don't miss the chance to stop in this great shop. The incredible prices and beautiful collection won't be around for long, as I'm sure this place will explode with buyers soon. It's even perfect for small gifts for your loved ones! I dare you to leave empty handed.

The owner is so creative and artistic and there is always something to find, even as a hostess gift. My only suggestion would be to adjust the pricing on some of the items to sometimes make them a little more reasonably priced. If you are in west chester you really should check them out. You will be very glad you did. If I had a large interior design project I would complete it with many items from this store. Well curated collection. Worth a visit, worth being a customer

My best friend had been to multiple bridal salons and found a dress and overskirt combination that…read moreshe loved but couldn't seem to pull the trigger. As we live in different cities, we decided to find a meeting point half way so that I could help her try on some dresses and give my input in real time. Another friend of mine recommended Van Cleve as she had actually found her dress there last summer. We knew that they had the dress there that she had so far narrowed it down to and we thought it would be a great way to try it back on and make sure she loved it the most. Shelley was the perfect sales consultant for what my friend needed! She had a great read of her personality type and style from the moment we met and was just firm enough without being pushy (which I thought would be all left up to me so I appreciated it!). My friend actually did not plan on purchasing a dress that day, wanting to sleep on it, but ended up saying yes to the dress! Shelley walked us through the showroom and pulled some great options, after trying on a few my friend put on the dress she loved at the past salon and kept saying she absolutely loved it (especially with the overskirt that Shelley had pulled to try on with it). Shelley was so great at asking what she loved about it that she actually realized that there was a dress that would be a better fit to her body and a higher quality material who's designer would be able to make the customizations needed to incorporate every detail of the first dress that she loved. We were so happy with the final results and it was the first dress that had the bridal party/bride/MOB all in agreement that it was absolutely perfect. So thankful for Shelley's expertise!

2 Friends recently relocated to its new location from 536 Burmont Road, where it shared quarters…read moreand parking with Burmont Hardware and Rex Dry Cleaners (both excellent). Yelp limits a user's categorization of a shop like this one to "thrift stores" but this is less a thrift shop than a high end consignment and gift business with remarkably affordable prices. Yes, you read that correctly: Owner Joanne Rebold is very intentional about her inventory and very price conscious. She understands that moving stock is more important than storing it. That's rare these days, isn't it? The premises are remarkably clean, beautifully well organized and appointed and appropriately lighted. At the front of 2 Friends you'll find an excellent selection of women's, men's and children's clothing, and arranged for convenient browsing. What you won't find at 2 Friends are ripped stitches, tears or moth holes in anything Joanne sells because she's meticulous about condition. To the left of the entrance stands a lovely (and often asked about) china cabinet full of crystal, dishware and fine porcelain. Among today's takeaways were a Beleek china bud vase for twelve (!) dollars, typically priced at $65.00 to $75.00 elsewhere (check Rubylane if you don't believe me). Now, take a deep breath, backtrack and read that sentence again. This sort of shopping find is rarer than hens' teeth on the ground these days. Dig a little more deeply into the china cabinet and you'll find full sets of designer dishware (Pfaltzgraff stoneware, Royal Worcester tea sets), cut crystal (today's visit turned up sparkling Waterford and Wexford sets) and Royal Danish holiday pieces all elegantly presented and priced to sell. Keep walking through this immaculate store and you'll pass designer handbags, vintage women's hats from the twenties and thirties (I counted no fewer than a half dozen cloches, smartly displayed), jewelry, brass, flatware, toys and on and on. You never know what you'll find so stop by often. Joanne's stock changes daily and her consignment traffic is high. What sets 2 Friends apart from so many other neighborhood consignment shops is that Joanne offers high tea for groups in an ever-evolving, ever improving back room. The 2 Friends "tearoom" is already booked weeks in advance for reading groups, local women's organizations and product demonstrations so be sure to make your reservations early because her calendar is filling up quickly. Parking is a little bit of a challenge because meters line the lot out front. However, there's ample free parking a hundred yards past the store on Woodland so keep heading west until you find a spot. 2 Friends is tucked into a row of stores flanking the Drexel Hill Post Office and set in the business district of historic downtown Aronimink. If you're planning a consignment junket to the Main Line remember to add 2 Friends to your itinerary. You won't be disappointed. This is a local treasure owned and operated by one of Upper Darby's leading lights. Brava...
