I'm sad to leave this review, as I've been shopping here for years and love this place…read morehistorically. I went in yesterday with my boyfriend and was so excited to show him the shop. The business owner, presumably, was stationed at the front of the store. The gentleman proceeded to stare us down for the entire time we shopped in the store, so much so that both my partner and I were made to feel quite unwelcome. I thanked him before we left and he just continued to stare. We did not appreciate it.

Alice and Amelia, Magazine Street (West Riverside area). When I look for nice New Orleans themed…read moregifts -- usually for friends and family unlucky enough to be stuck at home in the freezing Northwest -- Alice and Amelia is certainly my go-to shop. I find it has a large selection of curated, fun, useful and affordable gifts, not the kitschy, tourist junk so common in souvenir stores and supermarkets. If there is something you want, but don't see, ask for the owner, Joann. She will be happy to work with you. (BTW, Alice and Amelia are Joann's delightful granddaughters). Alice and Amelia, on Magazine Street, highly recommended, Five Stars.

I had two key words to go off of: tea and candles. Hmmmmm.... I had my friend Eric tell me about The Collective Shop a few months back when he bought some prints and I obsessed about them at his house. I was told it had recently opened on Magazine Street (this was around Halloween) and it was not only #blackowned but #womanowned and #opentoall ! *sold* I had this ace in my pocket for a while now but wanted a reason to shop for someone else, besides myself, and have a proper visit to explore and shop. I'm notorious for buying gifts for myself then as I'm in my car realized that I needed to shop for whatever the occasion was for. The shop is so stinking cute and is about 2-3 blocks away from Drink Beauty. Honestly, I love taking a stroll on Magazine Street and just basking in the ambiance. Once I found the cute little shop, I made my way in and fell in love at first sight. Had the chance to meet Alysia, one of the owners and she showed me around. I had asked her if they offer shipping and they do if you hit a certain threshold. WINNING I mentioned about my secret mission and wanted to make sure this could be sent incognito. She was super awesome and handled the details once I provided the address. I even left the items there since I needed computer access to her address. They have their own loose leaf tea and were super informative on which ones work with alternative milks and best for chai lattes. What won me over though were their #vegan candles which Alysia and Toni make in-house! I took a few sniffs and selected my fave two scents. The smaller ones were $8 a pop and the larger ones were around $14. You can find tons of knick knacks around here and make sure to ask which items are made in-house. Really loved my experience here and this shop implements COVID-19 safety practices! I snagged my secret santa gift for a little over $30 and left with a huge smile on my face. I hope CM Anne F. likes it just as much when it arrives to her doorstep.

The young woman at the counter never offered assistance and proceeded to move in front of the door entrance as if people were going to shoplift and she needed to position herself.

I remember LOTS OF color and lots of beauty. This store has that too!! There are SO many cute and affordable gifts in this store. I got my son a wooden glider plane because even though he's 10 he still LOVES making paper airplanes and flying them. I also got him a change purse, one of those cute sandwich plastic coin purses we all had as kids that says "candy money." I bought quite a few cards there and I got myself the line a day memory journal, which is the "One Line a Day," for 5 years. For ME. Everything about this store is curated so well. Adults have plenty to choose from: Fred items, funny and kitchy cards and beautiful gifts. They also have so many beautiful tissue papers and gift wraps and bags. Not to mention that the store ITSELF is beautiful! I really need this woman to come and design a space for me. Because it was so beautiful, well curated. Asthetically pleasing, and inviting. I will be back if I'm in NOLA again. Otherwise PLEASE visit this adorable store!!

Was disappointed today, my go to shop for gifts. The item I went to purchase happened to be on…read moresale, last month I purchased but full price. Of course, I was delighted. Unfortunately, when I asked about gift wrapping I was told sale items are not eligible. I offered to pay extra, I was on the way to a party. I was refused, put in a plain bag, no tissue. When I mentioned in the future about charging I was told, my boss has owned this shop 20 years so I'm not telling her how to run it. Really? As a customer for years and only suggestions, not appropriate response. So, instead of at least putting in a bag with their logo for advertising I had to buy a gift bag and they didn't get any recognition. Common sense should prevail.

This is one of those shops that I can't believe I haven't reviewed, as I've stopped in here for…read moreyears. They have plenty of moderately price jewelry and housewares and doodads that make great gifts...if you have the girly sorts to purchase for. Another I like about this shop, it's not packed to the roof with stock. You can actually peruse without being overwhelmed and move without fearing that you're going to take out a shelving unit of glassware. WHEW. The staff has always been helpful without being push and there is often free wine while you shop (BONUS). Sometimes I hit the jackpot and sometimes not. The upstairs (ok 3 steps) back room is a separate business so be prepared to use your card twice if you want merchandise from both spaces.

The Beautifully decorated for holidays, and friendly service takes this little gem to the top tier of hotel gift shops. You can find lovely and unique items here easily. Prices got from moderate to high end. They carry several local pieces/designer items and have a nice selection of these things on hand. Even if you're not staying in the hotel, this is still a nice place to stop and shop. Especially during the holiday season when it's fully decked out with several exquisitely decorated Christmas trees. Absolutely beautiful!
