UPDATE MARCH 2017 Since their move south a couple blocks to…read morethe spot across the street from the newish Mickey Finn's, Serendipity seems to have really upped their game. They are a favorite place to stop on First Fridays, when I can hardly get in the door! And the stream of new and fun fashions and accessories is non-stop. Service is friendly and personal, too. Still one of my favorite stops. This is like shopping in a dear friend's great closet. Although the store is tiny, the variety always surprises me, and the service can't be beat. I find interesting items I find nowhere else, and while their prices are consistent with other stores, their sale items make them more affordable. There is even a comfortable place to sit! I have purchased tops, purses, outerwear, scarves, jewelry, and other items. Easy to miss since it is north of Casa Bonita and before the train tracks, up a couple of stairs. But with such a uniquely-vintage location and terrific items and service, it is worth the extra steps. Easy parking right in front, or in the copious parking lots around the corner on Lake Street. No I do not work for them - I am just a huge fan and want to be sure they stay in town!

The staff there are so lovely, with their fashion input and their styling expertise. You can tell they love their jobs! They got so excited with me when we built two outfits that I could use for my on-site interviews. Each piece is modern, stylish, and I appreciate their expertise. The cardigan was a last-minute piece at the cashier when they brought it to me and said it would look good and amp up any jeans and tee I wear, and it fit well with my two outfits. They've made me feel so confident and feminine with these pieces, and I look forward to coming again!

I have also worked with another person who works there and she was equally as amazing. I now have 5 or 6 pieces from there and they are in regular rotation in my wardrobe! I always try to stop by to see their new stock and Karen just chooses the best selections that really suit so many styles. You can also score some great deals there from the clearance racks! I have found a few amazing pieces that I almost feel bad about since they were worth so much more than what I paid for them. Def check this place out and shop local :)

I've been to this thrift store before and have never had any complaints, but unfortunately this…read moreexperience was disappointing. I completely understand that coming in about 10 minutes before closing isn't ideal, and I was fully aware that the store closed at 6:00. I had no intention of staying past closing time. However, from the moment we were walking in they immediately turned Half of the lights off, and we were immediately told there were "less than five minutes" left, even though there was clearly more than five minutes until closing. After that, we were repeatedly reminded that they were closing. I understand giving customers a reminder, but I don't need to be told over and over again when I'm already aware of the time. What really bothered me was that at 5:55, an employee told us that they were closing, even though the posted closing time was 6:00. At that point, I knew I only had five minutes left and was prepared to leave by 6:00. It just felt like they were so adamant about getting us out that we were made to feel unwelcome for simply walking into a business while it was still open. If customers aren't supposed to come in during the last 10-15 minutes, then the store should have an earlier last-entry time posted. Otherwise, customers who enter before closing should still be treated respectfully.
