    Those socks on the bottom left?  They're mine now.  Heh.

    I've gotten into trouble on two separate visits to D Pru; I check out and then I find other things I want to buy! What a charming shop at Audubon Park! I haven't even gotten to the beads yet because I find so much more there I want to take home. Jewelry, clothing, etc. It's all for the wonderful taking here. A small shop you may miss on your next visit but take a moment and support the "little guy" as vendor. The prices are almost as appealing as the merchandise. I look forward to my next visit and I hope your first is just as much fun!

    Gorgeous pieces to make!

    I never thought that I'd find another store like the jewelry store in I encountered in Brooklyn! Oh how ecstatic I was when I stumbled upon Dear Prudence. Nestled in a simple strip mall in Winter Park, Dear Prudence is a blessing in disguise. As a fashion designer, my absolute favorite store concept is the DIY (obviously.) I like to take control of everything and it is spectacular how Dear Prudence makes it so easy. The concept is simple, choose your gems and they will make it for you. They have everything from necklaces to rings to earrings and low and behold, they even do wire wrapping!!!! Come with ideas or inspiration because there are MANY choices and your inner Aziz will become overwhelmed. The prices are great. Most of the charms and beads for about $1-$5. There is a $5 set up fee, but it all ends up being EXTREMELY affordable for beautiful custom made jewelry. The artist that helped me was a delight. She was extremely patient and helpful. She did tell me that they are trying to transition away from the concept, so come and design while you can! I will DEFINITELY be back. Apart from that, they have a great selection of clothing and accessories. The entire back of the store is a trendy boutique. It is a one stop shop!

    I loved this little bead/gift shop and will be back the next time I need a gift or decide to pick up the artsy hobby of beading. It was full of creative ideas and neat items ready to be purchased. Portal greeting cards (the ones with the photographs) were on display along with many delightful home accessories such as luggage tags, wine glass charms, car charms, candles, incense, picture frames and great scarves. Being that we live in Florida, the scarves weren't too heavy yet very stylish and wearable. The purses and jewelry on display were my favorite items to look at though. Reasonably priced and very chic, I could have taken them all home with me in a second. The sale shelves were stocked too if you needed to stick to a budget. This is also where I noticed their collection of the ever-popular toy, Webkinz. As far as beading goes, they have devoted the back portion of the store entirely to this activity. Four or five tables are setup for special beading/jewelry-making parties or for private lessons. Women's only gatherings along with birthday parties are held here and food and wine brought in. They will even help you create your first item without having any experience if you happened to come alone. And to promote their earrings, they do piercings for $15 with the earrings included. It's an overall adorable, cozy and quaint place chocked full of special items. I know times have been tough but you could spend under $20 and buy some special items for yourself or a loved one.

    See all

    It seems like every time I go to Nordstrom Rack, I'm on a time crunch and can never spend as long…read moreas I'd like shopping around. I could honestly spend hours browsing here, but I do need to be looking for something specific in order to have success. I love to shop here for shoes and clothing brands that I love at more affordable prices. Most recently I was looking for leather loafers for work and shorts for summer. I was able to find both! I got some very comfortable Cole Haan loafers and a couple pairs of athletic shorts/skorts, plus a pair of jean shorts. They had some really cute pajamas as well, but I used self control and did not purchase them. I also love to shop here for toddler shoes for my son. They have discounted Adidas, Converse, New Balance, etc. in his tiny size and they are just adorable.

    It is quite unfortunate that this store is so close because they have such great stuff in there. My…read moreposters are in pain just thinking about it. The staff are so nice and the selection is good. The store looks very nice and well put together. They have very good items at a great price too. The variety of items they carry makes shopping a breeze so just beware for your wallets. I went in with the intention of only getting a pair of shoes and an outfit or two and ended up with 4 pairs of shoes, some clothes, and some random things. I am a shoe connoisseur and I had a lot of fun going through the shoes there. I will be back embarrassingly soon.
