Encore Boutique is a women's consignment store filled with well-made and high-quality brands, and…read moreeven some designer brands. They have a good range of sizes, but you'll definitely be more successful if you're a size large and under. Prices are fair for the quality you're buying. For example, I bought a Talbots shirt for $22 and an April Cornell cotton dress for $26 (retail $64). Note for those with motility issues: there is a lower level that's only accessible by stairs (shoes, sales section, and vintage is located down there).

Well, I was so happy that I did. After a dress, 2 pairs of boots, sweater, hat....later I was super happy with all my purchases and I have tell you that I spent less then $100. There are two sides of this store there is the store to the right & the sale side on the left. I shopped from both sides and was happy to do so. I hope eventually they do online sales so I can shop there some more!!

She also has a vintage section, consignment section and of course the awesome Sale rack. It's on the second floor of a building on Main street..so you can see everything in downtown and that helps to give Collaborations its charming feel! The prices in the store range from inexpensive to high priced and everything in between!

Customer service was outstanding. We tried the mystery bag offering as well and were very pleased with the items we received. We got quality pieces for a very reasonable price. 10/10 recommend for parents wanting to save on kids clothes.

Good Things is a gem and always a must-stop for me when I'm bopping around White Bear Lake! Every…read moretime I pop in, I find something new--whether it's cookbooks, cards, puzzles, kitchen gadgets, jewelry, clothing....you name it. The selection here feels endless in the best way. Allow yourself some time because the store is pretty big. I especially love coming here when I need a gift or something Minnesota-based as they always have unique, MN-feeling items that hit the mark. It's the kind of boutique where you can happily wander and browse for A WHILE. I haven't had much interaction with staff beyond checkout, and I've noticed they don't typically come out onto the floor--at least not during my last couple of Thursday visits during Marketfest. That said, checkout has always been smooth. Highly recommend if you're in the area and love a good browse through a thoughtfully selected mix of finds! Also, highly suggest joining the rewards program and checking out the clearance section while you're here... there could be some great deals tucked away!

We stopped in to the Good Things store while visiting White Bear Lake on Monday morning. This is an…read moreamazing store! I would definitely call this a "must see" boutique. There are 3 parts to this store and you owe it to yourself to experience them all! I started in the style area, which is the clothing part of the store. This is an upscale women's apparel store, with habitat, Liverpool, Johnny Was, and many other upscale brands. All of it is beautifully curated and displayed. You will have fun browsing the racks. The sales associates were super helpful and knew exactly how to interact with people--making customers feel welcome, but not pressured to buy. Downstairs, there is an amazing sales area. Don't miss this gem! Bargains galore and beautiful things! I'm sure it changes regularly. Then stop at the cafe and have a coffee, pastry, or freshly baked cookie. All the treats look and smell delicious. The staff was very sweet and service was prompt. After that, continue shopping at the Good Things gift shop. This is a top notch gift shop the likes of which I rarely see. It is brimming with themed displays for almost every interest or occasion. If you can't find a gift here, you may never find it! Seriously. You can wander in this shop for an entire morning and still not see everything. I hope you stop by Good Things. It's a fabulous shop. Locally owned. Go there for your next gift.

I love the wide selection, quality of the products, reasonable prices, and current styles. On top of that, the management and stylists are awesome! Everyone is so sweet and helpful and I always feel very welcome. Maurice's is my favorite store, so I visit multiple locations when on vacation or at college. This location stands out as being the best location I have shopped at. Keep it up, ladies!

There are rows, upon rows, upon columns, upon corners of selection. If you want to build a costume from scratch they have ample choice. If you need advice on your items they have solutions. If you want a spectacular cape, they have them. Halloween costumes to renaissance costumes, they have it all. The costume I walked away with was better than anything I could have imagined myself grabbing- not to mention, they allowed me to look until I found exactly what I needed to walk away with. The owner is quite enthusiastic, as you would hope a costume and magic shop owner would be. Great value! 10/10 experience!
