Gem's Novelty is kind of a mish-mash of various things. They sell all kinds of clothes that don't really fit in any particular category; long skirts, cocktail dresses, formal dresses, t-shirts, kaftans, and scarves. Then they have an entire wall dedicated to handbags, another section for jewelry, and various little knick-knacks on the front counter, like keychains and hairties and hairclips.
To be perfectly honest, most of their formal dresses are tacky, as is their jewelry and handbags, and knick-knacks.
Just about the only things I found to be in good taste were the casual clothes, like scarves, and long skirts, and the kaftans. The kaftans were actually quite nice, I may go back and buy a couple.
And cheap, too! Everything is cheap enough as it is, AND they have sales frequently. It's worth a look around, at least. read more
