What can I say! I found Parisian heaven in this cozy boutique! What a pity that my phone died so I…read morecould not take pictures of every single thing I loved there. Almost every piece of jewelry, of clothes, shoes, kitchen decor, notebooks...I am obsessed collected of all things with Eiffel Towers on them. This fun obsession of mine started when I commented on Facebook how much I liked the shape of the Eiffel Tower and how iconic this tower was for Americans as it appears in so many souvenirs or objects, the most inimaginable possible. Then, suddenly, everybody started gifting me the coolest trinkets and my collection of Eiffel tower necklaces, earrings, shirts, tops, etc etc started to grow. So...needless to say every time I see a store like The Posh Moon all French inspired I have the need to enter and get something. In this case, since I was accompanied by the boyfriend and probably he got tired of all my omg so cute, look at this, check this out, i love it love it...he got me a very French beret (fuchsia bien sur:), a foulard with the Eiffel tower printed and a picnic tablecloth with another Eiffel tower and positive message written in French. All super adorable like this pale blue painted store run by 2 no less adorable ladies (one gave me a lucky coin, if I don't win the lotto, I will still go back for a mini dose of Edit Piaff and charming things.

You can always catch either of the gals at the shop. This is a must go to spot if you are looking for a unique piece or pieces to add to your wardrobe. What I love best about Crow's Nest is the personalized service and care you receive from them. There are so many ways to make them accessible to your any of your needs. They are really in the game when it comes to social interaction. The shop is consistently bringing in new inventory. You're not going to find just anything here. There is a lot of thought behind the items in this shop. You can find medium to more expensive ones. You can find Rails, Heartloom, LNA, Ragdoll, and even their own brand 92 West. There is an array accessories too to compliment any outfit. They also have a great sales section. One of the things I love the most is their pampering lines. You can find cozy slippers, heatless curlers, luxurious skincare and even some makeup. This is a small shop but local treat for both the community and anyone visiting.

Tidepool has a made excellent use out of front yard too- oftentimes when I've gone there's been a very sweet man selling African mud cloths and baskets.
