My kids were doing a bit of shopping and then ended up picking up a couple of items and I spent most of my time chatting with the one woman who worked there. They did enjoy some of the clothing but couldn't find items that they liked in their size but there were some really nice items in the counter that got their attention. They both checked out some really cool necklaces and we also looked at flasks and lighters. My youngest found a hat that they just loved and took a picture of the label on it with the idea that they would check it out online at a later date to see if they might buy one. Friendly employees who were very helpful and lots of good stuff. This one is definitely worth shopping in.

Located on Walnut off Broadway, it's a small shop that offers women's and men's clothing. There's a mix of eras under one roof and I noticed they have a good selection of men's clothing, which sometimes is a struggle for the guys who like vintage. When I went this time, there was a smaller selection of women's clothing, but most of the pieces seemed to be in fair condition. Spotted a vintage Dior jacket, but decided to not grab it. I'd guess that most of the clothing at the time that I went was from the 1970s-now. Mostly I saw tops, tees, and jackets, along with vintage denim. Parking options include street parking and parking lots where you pay by the hour. I went with the latter as it was more cost effective when I compiled my list of shops to visit in the same area. I recommend going that route because most of the shops are on the main streets and it's easy to reach them by walking.

Posies for Lulu Vintage

Another vintage shop that came up in my search for Asheville vintage clothing shops to visit on my…read morerecent trip. It is on Walnut St. and is on the corner, across from Moonlight Makers. You can either park on the street or park in one of the structures or lots nearby. We parked in the structure across the street and walked to all of the shops in the area. The shop is well-curated with unique pieces from a variety of eras and different styles. Everything is arranged by color and item type on the racks. The tags try to include the era for the piece, any damage present, and the price. There was a long pleated tartan skirt with a contrast color tartan on the inside of the pleats that I tried on for laughs. It was beautifully made, but the length was not for me and the price was a little high for my liking. Still, it was fun trying it on and seeing the other items available in the shop. There are a few men's items up front, but it mostly sells women's vintage clothing and accessories. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. I'd consider stopping by again to see what was new.

I've walked by Posies for Lulu a countless amount of times while wandering around downtown…read more While killing sometime waiting for my beautiful wife this past weekend I stumbled in to this delightful boutique. There's something super charming about this space. I was surprised by how open and spacious it is. Tall ceilings and massive windows make this spot quite a breath of fresh air rather than the typical stuffy feeling you can experience at a vintage store. Mentioning vintage stores, I find that there's often a lack of choices for men, but whoever is doing the buying for this shop is definitely dedicated to making sure there's a generous selection of stuff for the gents. There was an ample amount of things for me to rifle through, and a great distraction! I found an absolutely awesome blazer, and a number of vintage belt buckles that are going to be making their way on to my last minute Christmas list. Oh yes! Accessories. Chotskies. How do you spell chotskies? I have no idea... but this shop has a large variety of them. Interesting little objects from eras passed. Prices seem fair... the items are of an excellent quality, and everything seems like it's curated. Almost a sort of gallery feel. Although it took me years to actually walk into this place, I have a feeling I'll be visiting it again more often in the future.

There's clothing, decorations, foodstuffs, barrels of candy, toys, souvenirs... I spent so much time on the first floor I didn't even go down to the lower level so I have no idea what's even down there.

Bring the whole family -- the kids will enjoy the large toy and candy section -- and I didn't even look at the large Mast-branded jams, jellies and jarred food section because I wouldn't be able to fit them in my suitcase.
