Confession: I am a home decor/cute stationary/ jewelry junkie. This adorable new shop in Downtown…read moreNewberg offers a variety of products I desperately need. I am an avid shopper and have frequented similar stores all over the US, so it is with great confidence that I can say Pulp & Circumstance is one of the best. It is lovingly and beautifully curated by co owners and friends Jennifer & Ashley. I was doing business in the neighborhood and noticed they were finally open (I peeked in their window last week) and today is their grand opening. The store is located inside of a beautiful Victorian house that has been expertly transformed into about 1,000 sq feet of retail space. There are three major rooms that house a variety of items including but not limited to: fresh flowers, air plants, succulents, books, at least 100 (very cute, often letterpress) cards, stationary, baby gifts, jewelry, candy by the pound, jewelry, mirrors, art, etc. Best of all some of the wares are from local artists and businesses. Many of the items here I have never seem before, and I easily spent a hour familiarizing myself with my new go to place for gifts, small home decor items and cards. Does it sounds like the owners here are my very best friends? Well they are not (yet). Today was the first time I met these two remarkably charming and welcoming gals in my community. I am looking forward to future chats about the happenings in the Berg (we traded information about what other businesses are coming to town including a bakery and restaurant this summer). I picked up two mirrors, a postcard, a camping cookbook, a Father's Day card, a wedding card and a thank you card set. And I will likely be back tonight for their official grand opening party with my husband. Pretty please come shop here and support this brand new business which I suspect will quickly find great success and a loyal cult following.

The space is like an Art Installation with dark green cavernous walls, and potted house plants and succulents in the window, beckoning the curious passer by's to enter. From the street, it's dark, and you might wonder whether it's open, but the door is open. It's right next door to the UPS Store near The Trainer's Club and Nicoletta's Table. Upon entering this shop, you will notice many New Age gifts and treasures. There's many hand picked rocks and stones, unlike any I've seen in Portland. I dare not say more about the discriminating treasures you might find here, except perhaps you must come and immerse your senses in hand made artisan smudge sticks and vases. Imagine entering an Art Installation filled with sparkly and energetic treasures that you can purchase for your own home.

The employees were polite and mostly just worked on whatever projects they were doing while still greeting people and answering questions. I'd recommend this place to anyone to check out if you're in the area, I know I'll be back soon too!

Just a year after my first review, and I've come to love Paloma all the more…read more A fun point I missed in my original review is: Paloma has been around forever... Well, at least my whole lifetime(+), and that's a while at this point ;). My relationship with Paloma, has changed from a shop where I looked at pretty things, as a little girl with my grandmother - to a staple. Paloma is my go-to place when I am seeking something special and unique for the loved ones in my life. Paloma never lets me down with their expansive collections of accessories, bags, locally made jewelry, and high quality US made clothing lines, such as: Cut Loose and Tianello. Being rather petite, the clothing at Paloma is not always available in my size. However, the pieces I have bought for myself, are some of my favorites. On the other hand, the jewelry is where I really go a bit overboard for myself. I can't resist the exceptional selection of handmade rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings. At first glance you may think Paloma to be a stuffy boutique, but the shop gals are ever so helpful, and friendly. I had worried bringing my kids into the shop would be frowned upon. This is not the case. I've discovered I am welcome to bring the kids in with me. Paloma even has a basket full of toys to keep the little ones busy. In my case, this means I make it into the shop much more frequently than I did before. One last thing: Paloma is an active supporter of community it serves. They support us, and I love to support them by continuing to shop local in their store. 2017 #5
