For adorable unique accessories, this is thee place to get them!…read more They have TONS of really fab costume jewelry at reasonable prices. I love big chunky jewelry and they have a whole wall devoted to necklaces, bracelets and earrings. The prices range from $10-50 depending on how fancy schmancy you want to get. They also carry fun hair accessories, pretty scarves and purses. The majority of the store is actually clothing, although it seems that most of the apparel is for older women. I wasn't too into the clothing BUT it's great for fashionable older women. If you dig, you may actually find some really fancy dresses for a wedding too. I would absolutely buy up some fun clothing for my mom here. Shop local kids, there's some great finds here!

I always struggle to pick out a gift for my wife at all the important holidays. Julie set me up with Pandora charms a couple years ago and I haven't had a problem since!
