For example, I saw a ladies blouse with cute pink flamingos on it, a baby sleeper with cute sheep on it and some cute dishes with Mr. and Mrs. on them. While the items here are endearing and they have many fun patterns and colors, I think a little bit of Mud Pie in the wardrobe or the home goes a long way. Mud Pie is a chain and the store definitely has that corporate feel to it compared to the other locally owned shops in the Outer Banks Mall.

Eric and Robert are so fun and friendly, very no-BS guys who tell it to you straight. They made the class super fun and we were always laughing. Given the time of year, there were only 3 of us in class so it was nearly 1-on-1 instruction. I learned so much! I came back the next day to pick up my mirror and was stunned at how beautiful it came out! Y'all got me into a new hobby! Thank you for such an awesome class!

I stumbled upon Absolutely Outer Banks a handful of years ago and I was impressed with the selection of locally made arts and crafts. Ever since, this is my go to spot for legitimate and tasteful Outer Banks souvenirs. In addition to locally made items they also have some vintage items and even some new items for sale. One item that this store specializes in is really cool resin windows that are unique and exude happiness. Absolutely Outer Banks has artwork in all mediums and in all price points. They have jewelry, wood signs, candles, prints, glass work, textiles, metal work, etc.  On my most recent visit I enjoyed looking at a vintage pin ball machine and eyeing up the beautiful array of Fiestaware. There is plenty of opportunity for ooohhhing and ahhhing.  The owner is super friendly so that adds to the overall great experience. Absolutely Outer Banks is centrally located in Kitty Hawk in the former spot of a bank.

The large store/market is home to all sorts of trinkets, antiques, thrifted items and unique works of art. As you walk throughout the space each pocket and corner is filled to the brim with all sorts of gems. They have a large selection of women's clothing-- pants, dresses, sweaters and some really special vintage clothing items. You can also find shoes, handbags and jewelry. There are several different vendors all offering items within this one spot and there is really something for everyone! Bakeware, dishes and mugs from the 60s and 70s and loads of books and home decor. The prices are reasonable and if you look hard you can find some real steals! (Some of my best have been: a Dooney & Bourke bag for $40, Madewell t-shirts for $2 a piece) The staff here are always friendly, helpful and welcoming to visitors and those of us who are coming from out of state. Highly recommend a visit- but beware! You will need way more time than you think to see all that there is to offer in ReStyle Market.

It's all in the Silver Lining. On this day of days, we stopped by to see what the store had to offer. I saw one dainty little necklace that could be for a young girl or baby, but did not by it. I have no kids or nieces worthy of such a gift. Besides, they have grown out of the cutesy fartsy faze already. Nevertheless, the work someone did on the peices of art did not pass my eyes without appreciation for the fine details. The staff were polite, but not overly enthusiastic about us being there. It seemed to me at least they enjoyed each other's company than the guests arriving in their store. Nevertheless, I will keep this place in mind for my next book, or find a better location.
