I just wanted to rap to y'all about my groovy experience at Whiskey Grade. So I had never been to…read moreVan Aken District before but my daughter had a client to meet so I tagged along and decided to take a stroll around the area. I grabbed a smoothie @Nature's Oasis and then headed back down the walkway, I was surprised to see that they actually had groovy stores that I would shop at. Anywhoo I decided to walk into WG because it's my vibe and man was I inspired. The decor, styling and overall vibe was my speed. Tom, the owner promptly greeted me (because y'all should know by now, I love superb customer service) and talked to me like we had been knowing each other for years. His laid back demeanor was groovy and welcoming even though I didn't purchase anything. Note: if you're an xs like my daughter and I, you may not have much luck but the prices are reasonable.

MOIO is a touch of sophistication (new boutique) in the historic Cedar Fairmount district in…read moreCleveland Heights. I walked into this space, gasped, and said to the owner - "This is the best thing to ever happen to this space!" This retail space had so many stories and looks from being a boutique to being a photo studio to this new refined era. It feels like whispering a secret sharing this review because the boutique just opened and is intentionally not advertised. Even people in the neighborhood haven't all found it but you just did. Ambiance: High ceilings, chic exposed concrete look, neutral drapes, expert staging, and ritzy feel. You instantly feel transported to SoHo (maybe Rick Owens concrete minimalism space). Locally I can only compare it to the stark elegance of RH (Restoration Hardware). It's really a marriage of a boutique and gallery. There is a lounge area with couches and chairs for you to unwind while making purchasing decisions. The fitting room has a huge stunning mirror to evaluate your fit. It's simply gorgeous. Merchandise: As you enter the boutique you'll find men's merchandise to your left and women's merchandise to your right. Women's sizes go up to L. Some of the brands that can be found in the store are Silk laundry, Mijeong park Marle, and St Agni. The clothing is well curated with pleasant feeling fabrics - silks and soft fabrics. The owner suggested considering unisex look and checking out the men's collection. You can certainly find a dress for your night out in Cedar Fairmount. Clothing is around $100-200 at least based on the tags I've looked at. There are a few jewelry pieces and accessories in store. Home decor is on the shelf in the center of the store and few items are strategically placed around the store. You'll find ceramics, the thinned glass, vases, candles, and more. Most articles are worthy of display in your home. Art coffee books are also scattered around the space like Auguste Rodin's art. Most artifacts have little stories about their exclusivity and European origin. You'll find plenty of distinct pieces to spoil yourself or other people in your life. They are pricey but every object seems well curated, high quality, and hard to find elsewhere in the wild. Service: The owner is very friendly and introduces you to the space. Beverages are offered to customers. The guests look like they're from the pages of Vogue. I definitely should have dressed up to shop here. Neighborhood: The neighborhood where the boutique is located is known for its dining and new-ish wine shop. All are within walking distance in the same commercial district. I loved the lavish feel of this boutique. I love well executed interior design, which is clearly seen here. Personally, I wear plus size so no clothing was for me. If it was, I'd be all over neutral silky dresses and blouses. I hope to visit this boutique and shop here for home decor in the future.

This past week my brother-in-law was in town from California and was looking for a place to buy suits that were of reasonable price you know good value for your money.

Long story short we made the trip to Warren - he got two suits and accessories the staff at Howards recommended a great place for lunch and the rest is history. thank you, Howards we will be back.

Long story short, crisis avoided and I thank them for that. I will definitely be back soon. They do great work!

My family and I happened upon this shop on a previous trip and, peeking through the windows adoringly at all the lovely fabrics and baubles, made a note to return. We finally got our chance to visit a couple weeks ago and were absolutely delighted by the selection of fabrics and notions. They have many contemporary fine fabric designers and styles from which to choose in addition to high quality threads and various notions you may need for different projects from garment construction to quilting to other household crafts. They stock quite a bit of Liberty of London fabrics, high-end cottons that feel like buttery silk, which would make for some dreamy apparel, as well as many contemporary and fun designs in all sorts of bolts and rolls. Their independent patterns selection was also awesome with an entire wall for garment-project inspiration from Deer & Doe, Colette, Cashmerette, Closet Case, Grainline Studio, Liesl + Co, Megan Nielsen, Merchant & Mills, and others. I was instantly inspired to get my sewing machine running again in hopes of finishing some projects I'd already planned along with new ones catalyzed by this shopping trip. They also feature some sewing craft kits; embroidery and stitch art kits, supplies and hoops; and a selection of yarns and such for the crochet and yarn enthusiasts. I only wish I were closer to the store (or that it was closer to me) so that I could visit more frequently and perhaps also attend some classes. As it was, I left with some beautiful fabric including a discounted remnant of the lovely Liberty cotton and a new t-shirt pattern I'm looking forward to trying my hand at. I hope to return for more patterns, fabrics, and perhaps find a project in which to incorporate some of that lovely ribbon by which I was absolutely mesmerized. Just when you think it can't get any better than having some new raw materials and a dream of a garment to take form, they wrap up your purchase in paper and tie it with string!
