I love this store, from the rugs on the floor, the antique's throughout the store displaying the goods (all the while doubling as merchandise themselves) to the colors on the wall; this place reeks of style, and oh did I mention IT'S ADORABLE! You can't help but have fun shopping for local and handmade jewelry and accessories, clothing (Men and Women), furnishings/gifts, and antiques.
Tim + Thom Alterations and Designs will fix your current wardrobe malfunctions, or replace them with off their rack styles, as well as an ingenious concept: custom clothes! That's right if you don't fit whats on the rack, they'll make one to fit you (or something as close as they can replicate.) They have a good selection of active wear, casual and formal wear, dresses, skirts, shirts, and the best Men's pants in town.
Katy Schmaty features a collection of local, handmade jewelry that is versatile enough to suite your every need. From beerings and buttons to more glamorous high end pieces decked out with precious, and semi-precious stones. Prices range from $6-$300 with a focus on the low to mid range.
You And Me also offers a wide assortment of Vintage Enid Collins box bags, partner Jim Vereide prides himself in finding and restoring these boxes to their original form. Using parts from only Enid Collins originals, Vereide will find old boxes beyond repair and reuse their embellishments for boxes he finds that are worth salvaging. Some of these bags can be quite collectible and despite the market for Collin's bags online, Vereide tries to offer the lowest prices at You And Me in hopes of finding long term homes for many of these here in Minneapolis.
The whole shop has tons of fun decor, and they'll sell any of it to the high bidder. They don't have prices on anything but the jewelry (accessories) and clothing, since these are their areas of expertize and focus. But they like the idea of a revolving ambiance, and aren't shy to move stuff out for the right price. Expect to find dressers, mirrors, chairs, hutches, gun cases and more in addition to some more unique custom furniture pieces created on site at where else, but You And Me.
