The store isn't overwhelming to navigate through considering how much stuff is there. I believe the items are all reasonably priced, but regardless it does feel goof to support a local business and local creators. I don't think I ever left empty handed, there's such a variety of items to choose from. If you're in the Ghent area I highly recommend stopping by, especially if you're shopping for the holidays!

This used to be the spot of White Rabbit when it was a consignment shop but now this classy decor and ladies clothing and accessories store. The style inside is very classy but fabulous with high color, lots of print, sequin and lace and edgy items from some smaller, high-end designers. I loved the Michael Aram section with some beautiful dinnerware, frames, candles and other accessories for the home. It's pricey but everything in here is unique and it was a fun browse. I found several wonderful items of clothing, some home accessories, and some items on the sale rack in the back that were good price.

I was just roaming around looking at stuff at this store when I came across a very beautiful set of candle holders. These weren't just any regular candlestick holders, they're waterford crystals. At first I didn't have the money so I came back a few months later and just my luck, they were still there! What can I say, I have great taste in things. They were waterfords so of course they were above a C-note, 189 to be exact, 250 brand new. Ms Lana and I worked out a reasonable deal because I had to go back to my duty station in Japan soon. The end result was that I left with a beautiful set of candlestick holders for my wife and I! Thank you Antique Design Center for helping make our candlelight dinners beautiful again.

Shop local like you mean it and you won't be disappointed at Texture!…read more After many years, Texture has relocated out of the quaint house on Baldwin Avenue to serve its customers in a more convenient location just a few blacks down on Colley Avenue. The new location is nestled next to Running, Etc and across the street from Blair Middle School. It boasts ample street parking with a convenient side parking lot for customers as well. A beautiful store-front window is always displayed to perfection bringing window shopping to life during your stroll down Colley Avenue. A charming sidewalk chalkboard sign greets you before you even enter the store. The handiwork on the sign is done by a local artist which speaks to the nature of Texture. As you enter the shop, you will find it proudly supports local artists of Coastal Virginia from Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg, and more. I'm always impressed by the jewelry, hand designed greeting cards, pottery, and accessories that the owner finds for the store. She or any other "Texurette" will happily tell you about the origins of any item. The ladies who work in the shop (Texurettes, as they are fondly called) are always friendly and helpful if you are looking for something particular. They offer complimentary gift wrapping in adorable gift bags tied with ribbon. Every time I give a gift in a Texture bag the recipients eyes light up! You will find a price range for every wallet. I have bought $2 hand soaps, hilarious dishes towels for $10 as well as beautiful jewelry in the higher price range. Texture is one of those local shops who truly supports local as well. I love both that they give back to the community and support local artists. It is definitely the ideal place to find a gift for any occasion. They have a baby boutique with one of a kind baby gifts, vintage inspired puzzles, funny gifts such as socks and dish towels, coastal decor, jewelry, handbags, pottery, candles and more. I'm not sure how the owner did it, but the move to their new location only brought more of that local charm with them to Colley Avenue. They are still serving up friendly southern greetings to every customer while making their new shiny store feel ever so welcoming. Kudos!

I even remember them putting on fun workshops. The vibe is witchy but so cool. The owner and customer service is top notch like a long lost friend where you just pick up where you left off last time you spoke to them.
