My one and only reason to come to this shopping center is to go to Stein Mart. I have gone to several of the other stores that make up this shopping complex but I wish there were better desirable shopping options other than what's currently located here. Overall , this shopping center is clean and there is a big parking lot available to accommodate many people. One plus side is that there are other shopping, restaurants, coffee shops in the area. Vestavia City Center is located in the heart of Vestavia so it's in a centralized location!

My favorite stores here include Belk and Sephora.

I was obsessed with apple butter as a child and saw they had a signature drink with it as an ingredient. This was a no brainer for me to order and I'm glad I did. "The Eve" - toasted apple butter latter with caramel drizzle. I got mine iced. My Mom said she didn't want anything, tasted mine after we walked away and had us turn around so she could order something for herself. She ended up ordering "The Joshua" - shortbread latte with milk and honey and cookie crumbles. Hers was too sweet for me. She loved it though.

Great area that is still growing and developing.

They continue to expand, there is an Aldi as well as a few other places to shop. New construction is currently going on. Fast food options as well. From what I understand an Amphitheater is coming to this area as well (signs are actually currently in place indicating that it's coming soon). Really great expansion in the Hoover area. Looking forward to seeing what else they add in the coming months.

And finally, there are plenty of parking spaces in front of the store, which makes things convenient. If you haven't already, checkout Irondale Pickers.

I, along with several of my friends had inquired about the consignment process, and had heard that this business allows you to bring in your clothing, and they keep what they want and donate the rest without asking you if you want it back or not (as in returning your items is not an option). Once you take your clothing to them, you receive NOTHING back. If I want to donate the clothing, then I will take it to the place of my choosing and get the tax deduction for myself. That being said, that's their choice to make, and I respect their decision. However, when my friend group and I called up to the Clotheshorse to inquire if this was their policy, the owner answered the phone. I cannot tell you how rude and condescending this man was. I was simply asking if this was the store policy and he informed me that "Yes, and if you want your stuff back, you can take it somewhere else and when they return it, you can take it home and keep it FOREVER." I told him that all of the clothing that I would bring to consign was expensive and name brand boy's clothing like Vinyard Vines, Polo, Burlebo, etc. He literally laughed and said "Yeah, we don't really even really take Vineyard Vine anymore...so....." You would have thought I was scum on his shoes from the way that he spoke to me. It absolutely infuriated me, and I can't imagine treating my customers in this manner, ESPECIALLY as the owner. The girls that work at the store are very friendly and the manager- Amber is truly wonderful. The male owner needs to refrain from answering the phone or speaking with customers. He is definitely a repellant. Hands down the worst customer service from an owner that I have ever experienced.

The eclectic antique collection and selection is mind blowing, because there isn't a vacant spot anywhere in the house. There were all sorts of vintage glassware, crystal, dishes, shaving mugs, books, hand tools, hats, jewelry, window frames, lamps, paintings and on and on. It will take me more than one trip to see and process everything in the house. And lucky me because today - everything in the house was 25% off - everything. The Gentleman Owner is a most interesting person to meet as he shared the history of the house when I asked him when the house was built. I did make a small purchase today, but that's only because I'm still trying to process everything that I saw and what I want to purchase on my next visit. I will always value my trip to On A Shoestring Trading simply because I had the opportunity to meet the Owner. Such an experience! And there's enough free parking in front of the store, but you could park and walk from the nearby restaurants. I hope you will visit this place someday soon!

Some might call that "antiquing" I just call it liking to look around old, antique-y places and such. This place is no different. There's literally stuff packed in every corner of the main level, the upstairs, the somewhat basement level as well as outside in the yard. There are plenty of windows, doors, shutters and other woodworks for re-purposing if you're into that. Most are fairly priced by comparison to other places. Overall however, the store can be a bit expensive in it's pricing. Also they only take cash or checks as forms of payment so if you're headed over here, be sure to take one or the other. Overall, great shop!
