I liked being able to shop in peace and the prices are dirt cheap, so I was willing to live with that. I'd strongly prefer this shopping experience to having people following me around and "helping" like I was going to steal something. The store was clean(ish) except for a really weird fish tank sort of smell and well organized. I found exactly what I was looking for right away. When I needed to try some clothes on, I visited with the crew at the front registers and they helped in between ordering lunch (and hearing alllllll the specials and options) and making personal calls at the register, but still... it was FINE. Everyone was still nice and helpful. the world did not end and I still saved a ton of money. I'm happy with my purchases and I'll be back!

The selection has drastically changed but not to where if you're looking a quick outfit to a cookout or club. There was rarely anything suitable for work attire. To be honest it's a hit or miss when shopping here. Maybe they should ask what the people are looking for instead of having clearance sales on items that should be donated to Goodwill or trashed. I'm guessing they are still in business for their targeted customers.

It isn't cheap, but a lot of it is artisan-made. The Gallery is located inside the hotel, it's a mix of a gift shop and a gallery. The Gallery itself is down some stairs in the gift shop section and also near some windows on the same level as the gift shop. They always have rotating artists. In the past, the downstairs part only had art up, but it now looks like they're putting up some things to sell as well. It's free to visit, so if you don't want to buy anything that's ok. The people who work here are always super welcoming and kind. I highly recommend stopping by.

This was one of the first stores in the area to carry reproduction Miriam Haskell jewelry. The owners also produce a few of their own items including pop-art-ish plates with silhouettes on them and tote bags featuring prints of old Richmond postcards. I've also seen funky cameras, felt handbags, earrings made from recycled tin and a selection of note cards and stationery that always makes it hard to leave without something. Most recently I'm in love with the little reusable cloth sandwich and snack bags featuring bold patterns; the glass water bottles and wine glasses that are made to resemble their plastic counterparts; and the wooden "Not Plastic Cutlery" that comes in packaged in a cloth napkin. The fun selection makes this a great place for buying gifts or just treating yourself. If you're there to shop, make sure you check out the front of the store and the room in back behind the main gallery display. There's lots of good stuff waiting for you.
