Cute name and cute clothes. I was in Ankeny and wanted to find a gift for a friend. Clothes that…read moreyou can't find at chain stores. Something original and with personality. I found that and more at this store. When I walked in I was immediately in awe and knew this was exactly what I was looking for. I will admit, I was almost certain that prices would be over the top, but that's not the case at all. The prices were more than reasonable for these original pieces and some made right here in Iowa! I believe the clothes size ranged from newborn to at least toddler, maybe a bit bigger, I didn't inquire. Besides clothes they had other fun gifts as well. I encourage you to support small businesses and this one is a definite must if you have a child or any children in your life.

I always loved walking by the huge stuffed animals in the windows when I lived in Ames! They have classic toys from the 50's, to modern stuff kids today would dig! Great selection of stuffed animals, books, nut crackers, games, toy cars.. you name it they got it! They also do a fantastic job of wrapping those Christmas gifts for the little special ones in your life! The store is a fantasy world of fun, for all ages and I highly recommend stoping in here if you make it to Ames ever!

I love that they do size fits with every item and Amanda Binder is like the "average woman" she likes things loose in the midriff and likes pants that cover her butt. They have sassy items that are great for gifts. They have items for women it all ages: juniors, 20s-80s! Their kids clothes are adorable too. There is NOTHING I do not like about this store!! They are now carrying natural makeup, soaps, and lotions. I personally love everything, they also do fun giveaways on most lives and offer a discount for joining their text club and for downloading their APP! There is no better feeling than supporting a locally owned and operated business!

Staff did not acknowledge our presence or offer to help. All three stayed at the register area discussing their school projects and weekend plans. Customers had to tell one another which dressing rooms were still in use and which were no longer occupied (with all the rejects still hanging in the way of the next shopper). I've never heard Christian music in a clothing store before, and it was taken aback at the effort to indoctrinate retail customers rather than have an environment welcoming all shoppers. We did find a few pieces worth purchasing, and one pair of Italian-made pants that were so awesome I wore them out of the shop.
