This is a family run shoe store in Ashland and after my visit I wanted them to adopt me. I have a…read moremajor shoe weakness anyway, but I got amazing multi-generational service from several members of the family this weekend. When the daughter talked about the latest shoe designs she saw at the International Shoe Show, I got a little misty. You know that commercial on TV about the "Mystical Island of Shoes." I ended up with a new pair of sandals from a company called Zumfoot, which is an off-shoot of Birkenstock, since they were running a great promotional sale. I've stopped by this store for years since they carry some of my favorite lines including Dansko (now Sanita), Keen, Naot and Beautifeel, but now I might even take advantage of their free shipping offer and order shoes on-line (http://www.lithiaparkshoes.com/prostores/servlet/StoreFront). They usually have a cat in residence at the store, so you can say hi to Lolita while you browse. The only reason for the four stars instead of five is that during my subsequent visits they rarely have items on sale or just a very small assortment. While I love the personal service, it is too easy not to pay full retail elsewhere.

My personal experience with this women's clothing/accessories store was watching Gayle look at and…read moretry on various items that piqued her fancy. And after a short while, I assured her that she should take all the time she wanted and that in the meantime I would wander around downtown. Gayle looks pretty fabulous in most everything she wears, so I wasn't worried about having to validate any of her wise choices. However, she does need to take me shopping, because perhaps on a few levels, I don't have a clue. From my perspective, Earthly Goods is a very attractive store that consists of a main floor and 2 mezzanine areas. There were also a couple of nice "male seats" available along with reading material. Gayle liked the selection, along with many of the styles and how they looked on her. However, she was not quite ready to "pull the trigger" on any of her choices. I have a strong hunch that we'll be back.

Big Mistake. Big. Huge. I have to go shopping now." I also had a two year old in tow. The bathroom policy is the stores, I think, and not the salespersons. I have tried to supporth this local business even though many people I know will not shop there because of the salespeoples snarky and condescending attitudes towards people they think are "tourists". I will not be shopping there anymore. Everything there can be found online. I think many people will follow my lead based on the huge response the post above received on Facebook.

It wasn't a fun shop to look around and "window shop"- I feel like the person working was slightly on the Assertive side of things and I didn't feel comfortable browsing, and looking around. But, at the stuff I was able to glance at before I was hustled out the door, seemed like good quality run stuff.

I'm not sure when they moved to their 2 level shop on Main street, nor do I remember what was here before. Afterall, Gayle and I have been coming to Ashland every year (except COVID) since 2006. I found a nice short and nice fitting sleeve button down shirt for 40% off and a useful Fjällräven travel pouch. There was more to consider, but that will have to wait for the next trip or closer to a future ski season. Store staff were more than helpful in leading me onward.

FUN STORE!! There's soooo much to look at. Also, there's a…read moredownstairs part of the store that's just full of costumes. The employees there were very nice, but there are only two of them with this big store. I understand that it's a very touristy kind of place, but I wish I brought more money.

So I was interested to visit the new 'costume shop' in the Railroad District that opened this summer to see what they had in stock. Renaissance Rose offers a variety of themed costumes you can rent or purchase. They have packaged costumes similar to what you'll find around Halloween at other retailers, but also some more interesting pieces. At this point their website seems to be pretty basic, so hopefully that will expand in the future. After visiting both stores, I think the main location still has the broadest selection of items for purchase. Especially wigs, hosiery and accessories. But, if you are looking for a more unique rental, then the costume shop is worth a visit. I was most interested in the hair pieces near the back of the shop.
