I'm so happy I have the option to shop online and have it shipped to me in Florida! The woman who works there, Carol, is so friendly and caters to everything I need. She seems to always know what goes with each outfit I describe to her. Not only that, my kids love the jewelry, as 14 year old girls should. I think they would spend all my money there if they could! I highly recommend coming here for all your accessory needs, and for a breath of fresh air with some good conversations! Love this place!

Im so in love with this shop I been here 3 or 4 times and I love it. They offer lots of different styles and not everything is for everyone, the down side is that what I was asking for like the tatoo Bralette and the sandles in black size 9 and also the letter "A" necklace piece they didn't have my size or they didn't have in store, but I didn't leave empty handed, everything here is so easy to find and extremely organized and the staff is so sweet. I especially love the way this shop is laid out its very roomy and airy its just great all around can't tell you how much fun I had shopping in this store.

It is easily my favorite boutique ever, and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way! The owner, April, has a true passion for fashion, and the store is consistently up on recent trends, all while staying true to herself (and her clients.). The prices are always right, and there's wine. Big fan over here!!

The owner, Deb, is such a gem and she instantly makes you feel welcome when you step through the door. The clothes are amazing quality, yet still affordable. I love that I can wear one piece in several different ways; this is a great boutique for closet staples. I also really appreciate that I can place an order online and pick it up (sometimes it's hard for me to shop in person because my toddler is generally in tow). Wanderlust also has a charm bar where you can make your own jewelry. Great for personalized gifts!

I have been wanting a Longchamp Le Pliage Original Mini Pouch for over a year. I knew there was a…read moreLongchamp store at Woodbury Commons and I decided if they had the one I want (all black) I was going to pull the trigger. A salesman greeted me seconds after I walked in and asked if I was looking for anything specific. I told him and he showed it to me and I said I'll take it but I'm also going to look around. He said he'd pull one from the back and have it waiting up front. He also offered me still or sparkling water. I accepted since it was a scorching August day. Love my new mini pouch and can't wait to wear it! There was no savings off retail here but the selection of Le Pliage sizes and colors was vast. Also very friendly service!

After lots of searching, I settled on a dress I felt would work for me even if it wasn't perfect. Two days before the wedding, a friend suggested an alternation that would transform it into the perfect gown but I knew it was too late. I called every tailor I knew but no one was willing to help. With 24 hours to go, Abby returned my call. She opened her shop and within an hour, had the alterations done. She could have charged me anything but only charged for the hour's work! My son picked up the dress and handed it off to me at the rehearsal dinner a few hours later. The dress was beautiful and the next day was great! There are no seamstresses left like Abby. No wonder she has such a great reputation.

In a time when we are surrounded by giant chain retailers and automated, fast fashion, places like…read moreBeetle and Fred are a true gem. I stumbled upon this shop after doing a little research looking for local yarn shops after moving to the Hudson Valley. I didn't know what to expect, because I've been to some small yarn shops that were not all that friendly or inviting. The shop is conveniently located right on Main Street, Beacon. It's a great area to talk a walk around, especially on the weekends (Farmer's and Flea Markets on Sundays!). Parking is ample, even on weekends. I've always been greeted warmly at Beetle and Fred. The staff is always so friendly and offer great advice and recommendations. I never really did much sewing before visiting, but the shop offers an amazing selection of top quality fabrics at fantastic price points. Can you get cheaper fabrics and yarn, etc? Sure, go to any giant chain retailer. But will it be of the same quality and design? With phenomenal service to back it up? Absolutely not. They also offer some noteworthy local classes and workshops - be sure to check their website for a schedule of upcoming events! Beetle and Fred is always a stop when I'm in the area - even if I walk out of there with nothing, it's always a pleasant visit. Whether you're interested in learning a new hobby, or a seasoned veteran, I would give them a 5/5. I would definitely recommend to both beginner and experienced fiber crafters alike.

It is a very adorable shop for the crochet hobbyist, embroidery enthusiast, and avid seamstress dressmaker. Books are available for purchase, but I do not believe there are any beginner instructional step-by-step books with photos or sketchs. I believe the books available for purchase are theme, advanced stitches or how to make hats, scarfs, and gloves possibly for profit as personal gain. There are also a small amount of embroidery tools of thread and including small 4 inch wooden circular embroidery hoop. Oh! In my youth I embroidery as a amateur craft which was a very laborious task, ergo I abandon the craft. I have the large 14 inch circular wooden embroidery hoop from the former F. W. Woolworth Company. There is a small selection of ribbon velvet, grosgrain, organza but I was seeking double-sided satin ribbon of .25 inch. There is a small selection of buttons. I believe classes are available in the rear of the shop. It is here at Beetle and Fred my party of six were greeted for good customer service. We entered on a whim freely roamed and browsed for brisk walking in continuation of our Hudson Valley region one day excursion. Hone your craft well!
