    Very small store
    Emily Y.

    Absolutely lovely store on Ninth street, can't believe I've been walking past it all this time. Having read many positive reviews on Yelp I decided to wander in with a friend; as we were two of three people in the store the shopkeepers spent a lot of time with us explaining the items that were currently included in the Winter Sale. Much cute merchandise to be found here, from notebooks to bookbags, from clocks to clothes, little stuffed animals and gifts and novelty items galore. I bought a nice gray scarf for $8 though I had my eye on a purse with a French motif that turned into a backpack until I realized it was $60, so be warned: not all the prices are low. Also, since the store was so small, I felt that it was hard to have a private conversation, so expect the store helpers to chime in during your conversations. In any case, fun location to check out and browse through.

    Yaaaaaas!

    I can't believe how great the ladies are that work here. We walked in and felt immediately welcome. I was wearing a Bob the Drag Queen shirt and the lady behind the register started riffing with me about the show. Obviously, she became an insta-friend! On top of the super service, they have great jewelry, accessories, and small gifts! Check them out, I dare you to leave without buying something!

    This store will make you giggle aloud while shopping. The first thing I saw when I walked in was a set of cat butt magnets. And, of course, I immediately thought of three people to buy them for (but I resisted). There are other humorous magnets (those Ann Taintor ones with retro women's pictures and pithy sayings), books and gift items throughout the store, which also sells clothes, shoes (Naots, in particular), scarves and incense.

    Kids are unwelcome. Your child may enjoy some of the small toys but please DO NOT bring them in to shop.

    Frankly, I expect to be treated well if I am going to spend money in a business. The owner/manager/buyer? had an unpleasant attitude.
