Assuming the name stands for its location -on the corner of Monroe and Division street- it is in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids and easy to find accross from the Civic Center and the police station. Currently, it hosts several clothing and accessory shops as well as a shoe store, floral design area, an ice cream shop (with amazing homemade cones!), and a soap & candle type shop. Because of its nature, shops rotate in and out so make sure you check in often to see whats here. On my most recent trip, I checked out Blu- Goodwill ' s fashionable new and used women's clothing shop for some great deals. I also explored the soap and candle shop for yummy smells. They have one particular candle called 'the queen of farts' that had me cracking up! Don't worry- it did smell good!

I like classic pieces and was happy to see some at Covet. The store is full of super cute items, like rompers and dresses with cutouts, which seem to be very popular lately. I did find several dresses that I would consider more classic styles, including a wrap dress that I got for $30! It's airy and comfortable and great for all the hot weather we've been having. I love following Covet on Instagram, where they often post their new items and styling ideas. I don't consider myself super stylish, but Covet is a place to find something you feel comfortable and confident in. I love that this store is woman owned and local - it's nice to support a small business rather than buying something on Amazon. I loved seeing inclusive sizing and models on their Instagram! There was a great sale rack when I went in, and I saw prices in different ranges. They also have jewelry, gifts, and accessories like sunglasses, sandals, hats, and purses. From now on, any time I'm on Cherry Street, Covet will be a regular stop for me!

This clothing shop repurposes old clothing and reworks it into one-of-a-kind pieces. Many of the items have been upcycled and made to be unique. This place also sell curated thrifted items that have been untouched by time. If you are a vintage clothing aficionado and/or someone who appreciates creative clothing, then this shop is for you. Everything about Second Vibess is carefully considered and placed just so. That's why I love this store -- you can tell that a lot of thought has been put into every single item that's displayed. The clothing is arranged in an artistic way around the store, interspersed with fun accessories and artwork. The shoe section has just the right number of shoes, arranged neatly. There are live plants everywhere, and some of them have names (like Keanu Leaves). This is lovely store to walk around and explore. This is mostly a women's clothing store. In fact, I don't recall seeing any clothing for men or kids. But that's OK, because sometimes, women just need a store where they can find eyelet prairie blouses, apron dresses and Mrs. Roper muu muus. This is that place.

If one orders online and has to return an item, how is that item handled based on the fact that one was unlikely wearing a mask at home while trying it on? Do parasites or communicable diseases not count at home?, and what if a client had covid? You'd never know so how absolutely ridiculous your statement is. And 'extending this expectation to clients' again is a load of malarkey. That's a roundabout way of communism at play. 'Do it our way or you will be denied service' Perhaps you should review CDC recommendations again. Heir Fauci has stated from his own mouth that masks do nothing but placate the wearer. Ummm, yeah. Anyone who has a lick of common sense can figure this was a scam. Too bad for you Nordstrom Rack, you've lost a bunch of customers because of your politically correct/woke policies. I find it very telling that your stores, at least the last two I saw, were low in stock of most items. The stores seemed bare. Maybe it's a sign that the silent majority is done with your BS

The staff were friendly as well! If you're looking for season specific pieces or cheaper pricing this is not the place for you.

I'm not sure how often the vendors rotate, but it's always fun to stop in and check things out. I especially love the Public Thread bags and accessories, the Polish pottery, and all the interesting art. There are signs everywhere letting you know that if you break something, you buy it, so be careful. I have purchased gifts here for myself and others and hope it sticks around for a long time!
