I was fortunate to be visiting on the day after summer markdowns, and discovered about 80% of inventory was discounted. I especially appreciated the unique jewelry and purses, but was impressed by the shoe selection as well. Clothing sizes are solidly in the misses range, so be prepared mentally to not find clothing in the range referred to as "women's" sizes. The staff person working was exceptionally helpful and I left with a pair of one of a kind quill earrings that left me swooning.

I love Plato's next door, and as I've gotten older have found more items that fit my more mature style at Style Encore. My mom and I enjoy shopping here. The items are reasonably priced for good quality secondhand: I got a pair of Old Navy sandals for $6 and a pair of like new Nike tennis shoes for $30. My mom got three tops, all ranging from $6-9 and super cute + in great condition. I love how organized the store is, the frequent 70% clearance items, and the quality of brands. You can always find high end shoes and bags here! In my opinion, this Style Encore is leagues above the Clothes Mentor and other stores we have in the Twin Cities as far as cleanliness, quality and price.

I swear that I'm walking into a Portland Oregon shop (like Tanner or Machus) when I see the unique collection of leather goods, outdoor accessories (like Filson) and associated fashion (like waxed jeans from Red Clouds Collective of Portland). It's fun to look around and imagine the possibilities. They have their own leather shop in the back and they will do custom orders. I asked that take one of their passport holder designs and add a "flap and snap" feature to keep it all together better. That was done, mailed, and in my hands within a couple weeks.
