The busiest day of the year for the shop is the Branford Festival day when newcomers discover this gem. Sales associate Alyssa Merrick told me the shop is known for its costume jewelry and special occasion dresses including this Nanette Lepore two-piece for $58 with the tags still on (see photo). The couture section boasted a Bill Blass knit top for $28, numerous St. John items and a crazy pair of Moschino slacks. Anyone with a size 6 foot will make out like a bandit in the shoe department. Owner Mern Palmer-Smith says that a huge summer sale is imminent in order to make way for the influx of fall items.

The clothing is high quality and very unique. Every time I go, I've gotten at least one thing, like skirts, shoes, jackets, and a variety of very fun pants.

I'm very happy to see that they're now fully open for business and everyone cooperated wearing masks and having a plastic barrier at the register. I just wish they had an online boutique!

Lo and behold, I did find a pair that I really, really liked on Tuesday. I went home and tried to find them online, but to my luck I couldn't find them anywhere. When I came back on Thursday and was approached by a sales associate asking if I needed any help and I told him the exact pair that I wanted. He bent down and looked in the drawer where all of the new fresh pairs were kept. He takes out a pair and says oh these are them, and I said "no, I'm sorry they're not, they're not the right color." He said, "yes they are, they are the same model number as the one you just showed me." (Rodinara MK5009). I told him that through my research I noticed that there are four pairs they go under this model number, but they are just different colors (Silver, gunmetal, rose/pink, and gold). He said, "oh well, we just go by the MK4digit here." You could tell he was getting slightly flustered because it was apparent that I was more knowledgeable in the product that he is supposed to be selling to me. Thankfully not too long after, we found the exact pair that I wanted and I went up to the register. During checkout, I felt extremely rushed. I understand it's supposed to be a quick transaction, you know, the usual swipe your card, sign, etc., but it just seems like he couldn't wait for me to leave so that he can move onto the next potential customer. Nevertheless, the store is incredibly clean, welcoming, and thankfully stocked.

Still not cheap, but more reasonable than if you were to buy the bags at Nordstrom. And we all know what it means when you get a purse at a discount price...it means you can now afford to buy the matching wallet! Now that everyone and their sister owns a Coach bag, I've moved on to MK. I don't always find something I like, but sometimes I hit the jackpot. The staff obviously work on commission, because they fall over each other trying to help you. Which works out well for the customer because they are so eager to please. Last time I was there, buying a lovely spring bag, an employee simply overheard a conversation I was having with my husband and ran over with a wallet that doubled as a wristlet. Exactly what I was looking for! You can't beat that. Make sure to stop by the management office first for the AAA coupon book, and you'll save a little more.
