Liebling is my favorite clothing shop in Burlington. I don't have many pieces from the shop…read morebecause the clothing isn't exactly Vermont-esque and it can be expensive. That being said, if I were still living in a city, I would dress from head to toe in Liebling-style garb. Vermonter Kara Alnasrawi opened Liebling a few years ago. Kara is an ex investment banker who met her husband in Germany (thus the name of the shop). She saw a gap in women's fashion offerings in Burlington and decided to open a clothing shop with items she would wear. I'm so glad she did, because I share her taste in fashion. The brands Liebling carries have clean, simple lines, are made of high-end materials and indeed offer "casual luxury" like it states on the store's website. Sweaters are cashmere, denim is Japanese, shirts are made of silk or fine brushed cotton. The cut of the clothing is flattering but understated. I'm a big fan. Still, in a state where 90% of the inhabitants shop at TJ Maxx and similar bargain stores, I wonder how this shop stays afloat. Regardless, I'm so glad it's here to remind me of other places and lifestyles. Designers include Helmut Lang, Rag & Bone, ALC, Raquel Allegra, Mother Denim, NSF, Goldsign, Inhabit, etc. And the store is now carrying Isabel Borland Jewelry. I went to college with Isabel and I love her aesthetic!!!! I'm so pleased Liebling is carrying her. Her jewelry complements the clothing perfectly. The few other women's shops in town that compare to Lieblling are Monelle (Nantucket-style clothing, lots of whites and navies, stripes, nautical cuts, cotton, linens, and some fancy dresses. Casual elegance); Whim (a bit more trendy, less classic than Monelle, less luxurious than Liebling. More in lines with Ecco); Ecco (trendy mid-range brands) and Jess Boutique (hard to describe, more flowy and mature with prints, not my bag but a lot of people love this shop). The only men's shop that is comparable in the Burlington area is Michael Kehoe. Burlington isn't exactly the fashion capital of the northeast. ;)

This is a curated vintage collection, beautifully displayed, a marriage of old and new, offered alongside Molly's own sophisticated jewelry line. Molly designs and fabricates each piece of jewelry with equal attention to form and function. Her work is smart and sophisticated. I came to browse for a few minutes, but ended up spending lots of time looking at her work. It was impossible to leave without buying a pair of her fabulous earrings. The shop itself is bright and lovely. And while it is not cluttered, I kept finding new and interesting things I did not see on first inspection, This is a great spot on Pine Street to find a thoughtful gift for someone you love, including yourself!

No greeting, no interest in me as a customer whatsoever. I wasn't alone. Another woman about my age had to chase down a sales person to help her find a sweater in the color she wanted. We looked at each other as what appeared to be the manager fawned over one woman trying on dresses for a wedding, and the other devoted her attention to their "favorite customer" who had come in after we had. I finally said to the other ignored customer, "I must look like I'm not here to buy clothing." I was looking forward to getting some help putting together a wardrobe, and trying things on after a year of online shopping. It's not that hard to get Halston. I'll stick with online - the customer service is better.

I had plans of hitting the waterfront and saw this vintage store was on my way from the coffee shop I'd posted up at, so I made a point to wait until it opened to check it out. I was not disappointed! While the shop itself is a little small, it's very well-stocked and curated. Being a designer, I really appreciated the color coding of the clothing racks. It felt easy to peruse versus the feeling of being overwhelmed you might encounter in other vintage stores that sorta pack the racks in. I was surprised at how reasonably all the clothing was priced. They also had a really good selection of accessories and smaller items that would make good gifts. Whenever I travel, I make it a point to visit a local vintage store and this definitely left a good impression on me. There were a few things I wanted to try on, but didn't for fear I'd fall in love and buy. I sadly overpacked for this trip and knew I didn't have much space left in the suitcase. However, now I know that this is a spot to return to when I'm back in the area. Hopefully, much sooner than later.

I was in Stowe for a January wedding, but squeezed in some time to visit this store when I saw it…read moreon the Go Stowe website. There's a lovely selection of real vintage pieces, faithful reproductions, and vintage-style clothes from modern brands packed into this small store, and the price range is very reasonable (especially since everything is very high quality). The clothes are great, but the owner is who really made my experience awesome. Sometimes I feel self-conscious when going vintage shopping, but she was so friendly and encouraging that I quickly let go of feeling shy and tried on a whole pile of clothes. I had so much fun trying on different pieces that my "quick visit" went on for quite a while, and turned into the highlight of my day. I went in thinking that I'd maybe find one dress, and I left with three! I can't recommend this store enough. The next time I'm up near Stowe, I'll be sure to visit again.

Common Deer happens to be one of them. Probably a nightmare to locals, but a pure dream to any and all tourists! I saw nightmare to locals bc locals complain constantly about the types of little stores that are all over their downtown areas. We have quite a few here in downtown Boise. Locals complain constantly about the tourists. Funny how locals everywhere..whether in Burlington or Boise will complain about tourists all while forgetting how much $$ tourists pump into their economies. I absolutely love supporting little stores like this. Small local shops are the absolute best. Sure, prices will ALWAYS be higher, but chances are you will find something at these stores you'll never find at another. If a touristy item...finding a unique is even better. Common Deer is one of those special places. You will certainly find some incredible little things here, Knick Knacks, souvenirs, maple syrup (now that's plentiful all over Vermont haha), candles, etc . I know, they all sound like things in every store like this. I'd like to think that...yes of course, you'll see some repeat things...especially in VT t-shirts, but each store has something the other doesn't. Common Deer is absolutely worth checking out! If you are visiting Burlington, there's a 99.9999% you will go in. It has a very inviting vibe to it. The outside does a great job...drawing you in. You'll love it! Thanks for reading, YelperCommonerDeers! Cheers!

There was a plastic cuff bracelet that wrapped in a knot that caught my eye, but at $33 or $36 dollars it just wasn't worth it. There are some cute hats in the ~$30 range. There were some plush robes available that were proudly displayed as being "Oprah's favorite robe!" Very squishy. Very expensive (about $140 I think). But some people may find it worth it, and if so, Hydrangea Too is where you can find it. Most of the jewelry looks pretty cheap, honestly. There were some interesting pearl necklaces and earrings though but again, overpriced. Lot of charms, horoscope-themed and otherwise. Some scarves, wallets and plush baby toys. In the end though, Hydrangea Too was another store that was more for browsing than actual buying. Having seen what's available, I don't see myself making a point to come here again when I'm in Burlington. Plus points for very friendly service though!
