With an eye to detail and comfort, the owner must be listening to her clientele: the selection is excellent with a range of price points--but you won't break the bank! You can find basics in those workhorse colors which are the basis of every smart dresser's wardrobe. From there, Details has lovely colors, distinctive styling and accessories galore. If you want to build a capsule wardrobe for travel, this is a brilliant place to start. You'll also find wonderful Brighton handbags, shoes and jewelry. And did I mention comfort? It's great that clothing in the 21st century is all about comfort, but in many mass merchandise stores that means cheap and slightly sloppy. The clothing at Details puts a modern face on comfort without sacrificing your dignity. You'll look polished and substantial without looking like you've given up! I'm going back--again and again.

The population is just over 1000 but this lil town is host to over 80 small and family owned businesses including award-winning restaurants, art galleries, hair/spa services, a historical society, museums, unique shops and boutiques. This little water town has really cool events year-round like the Summer Riverfest & Craft show, the Fall Arts & Craft show, the Holiday Market & summer concerts. Occoquan has lots of parks & trial accessible by foot, bike & water. There are also lots of water activities like kayaking. The Town of Occoquan is constantly voted the #1 Tourist Destination in Prince William County each year & I love to get haaappy in Occoquan - any hour - sitting on the riverfront, listening to some live music. Cheers!

You'll find some vintage shops (may be a good place for antiquing ), the local store/grocery type place (they make their own ice cream) , a couple restaurants (which by the way is why I was in Occoquan), the town hall, small boat ramps along the river and maybe a few other things a small town would offer. Like I mentioned, it was the eatery (one in particular "The Secret Garden") that got me there and it was darn good. I will look forward to my next visit and meal.

We were visiting Occoquan on a Monday and just happened to venture into this store and we're glad we did! My wife and I are expecting our first child and Gift and Gather had a really cute selection of onesies, bibs, small dolls, etc. When we entered the store, we were quickly greeted and welcomed into the store. Parking was easy and they had street parking right out front. Aside from cute baby stuff, they also had handmade/locally sourced soaps, gifts, shirts, etc. They had some items featuring dogs and things like that. They had a selection of fine tea and also really nice shaving/razor sets for men. Some really great gift ideas. As we finished up our visit and checked out the lady made some nice lunch suggestions, other stores she liked, and events coming up in Occoquan. She also did a really nice job of wrapping our purchase and tissue paper and a nice bag --a huge plus if you're shopping for a gift. We will definitely visit Gift & Gather next time we're in Occoquan! I added some photos (note they are from the business's Facebook page).

Brenda was very nice and helpful, listened to what I said I wanted in my ring and didn't try to up sell me a larger diamond (like.every.other.jeweler tried to). She was able to find a ring just perfect for me, even though it is not a popular style right now (not a halo, cushion cut, blah blah blah.) The ring my fiance ended up buying had been in the case for awhile (not in style, remember?) and she said the price that was listed she would honor, even though the price of gold had gone up (score!) Same thing goes for my wedding ring. No one has what I want in stores (two tone with milgrain edging on a plain band) so Brenda suggested that we have one custom done and helped me realize exactly what I wanted, and that I didn't have to settle for what is popular right now...and it is not costing a fortune just because it's "custom." Brenda and Jerry's Occoquan Jewelers have been fantastic to work with. Not pushy, listen to your request and don't try to up sell you like everyone else does! They have been in business for 30 years or so, and I can see why. This is not your mall jewelry store-come in, you wont be disappointed!

I didn't catch her name but the lady who works the desk is extremely welcoming and helpful as well. You need a decretive piece of wood art with a snappy little quip about wine or alcohol, they've got it. Perhaps you want something that displays your or someone you knows patriotic fervor, it's here. Or you may like a new dish or two as a centerpiece that strikes up conversation at your next get together, well then, you guessed it, it's waiting for you. There's no reason not to check this place out. Have some brunch at the Secret Garden Cafe then take a foot-tour of this amazing town, and pop in to see this place in all its glory. Enjoy!

I…read moreregularly patronize Urban Posh, NazBro, and So Bohemian, often monthly, and have always appreciated the welcoming atmosphere these businesses and store owners provide. This past Tuesday, while buying chocolate at NazBro, I noticed the bridal shop I have walked past for several years had an "Open" sign displayed. In all the years I have ever visited Occoquan, the store has NEVER been open. I decided to stop in to learn more. Before I could even get both feet through the door, a woman abruptly shouted, "I'm with a customer!" Her tone was so startling and unwelcoming that I immediately turned around and literally ran out of the store. The customer and I made brief eye contact and she too, seemed alarmed my the response. There was no greeting, no business card, no explanation of an appointment policy, and certainly no invitation to return. As a stylist currently sourcing eight bridesmaid dresses for a client, I was genuinely interested in exploring what this business had to offer. Unfortunately, that opportunity ended before it began. What made this experience especially disappointing was the stark contrast to the warmth and professionalism I consistently receive from Omar at NazBro, Kim at Bottle Stop, and Nathalie at So Bohemian. I understand the demands of running a small business and giving clients your undivided attention. However, being busy (at that moment she was NOT even actively engaged with the customer-she was standing behind the counter and the customer was looking at dresses) does not excuse being discourteous. A simple, "Welcome! I'm assisting a client, but I'd be happy to help you schedule an appointment," would have made all the difference. First impressions matter. Customer service matters. And every person who walks through your door is a potential customer, referral, or business opportunity. Small business owners, do better. Professionalism is never an option.
