Both of the selection is for women but they do have some selection for men and children as well too . Price here were pretty sky high but there were some unique clients as well too. You might find some accessories as well but overall it was just an okay store to check out.

Service- Subtle, low-key friendly. Stellar…read more Selection- Great variety, Men's, Women's, Sm. kiddos. Accessories, housewares, tchotchkes. Varied. Lady working said Friday's can be mark down day for some sellers. Saturday is changeover day. Though- changeovers can happen at booth owners discretion. How it works- I am a newbie, first timer so I am still learning. Each booth has a different consignor, but some consignors have multiple booths. Interesting mix of vintage, funky, contemporary looks. Not a lot of formal stuff, some business casual, some casual, some jumpsuits etc etc. A lot of fun to browse. Value- Um, yeah.

You need to come back tomorrow". The customer she was checking out repeated the statement even louder when I didn't immediately leave. The open sign was still posted. I was stunned. I was turning to leave but the owner took another opportunity to say she was closing. I was back in my car at 4:57 pm. It is safe to say - I will not return to this store. I am a local resident - I will be happy to take my money to any business but this one.

I spend summers here in Traverse City and love to support local businesses. Every year for the past…read more3 years, I have stopped in here but never really found anything I liked. What I do always find is overpriced items marked "FIRM" which makes me feel like a thief for even considering making an offer and a salesperson who can barely look at you let alone smile. Today was my last time stopping in. I'll drive a mile down the road to The Red Dresser on South Airport Road which is filled with amazing finds and always friendly faces.

This is my favorite boutique in Traverse City! I love everything in the shop, from their…read morehand-crafted jewelry, unique clothing (mostly for women, but do have a small selection for the fellas), shoes and home furnishings. They include a mix of antique pieces, which work perfectly with contemporary designs. I love the chandeliers they had throughout this most recent visit. As soo as you walk in, you can't help but fall in love, it mixes all items seamlessly, providing fun spaces, and one of a kind pieces. I've purchased a couple of jewelry items both visits, and while I would basically buy anything in the shop, it is rather pricey. But, if you are looking for pieces that truly are treasures that can be handed down, or unique items, as well as items that will last for years...then splurging isn't so bad!

*sigh* If you would have told me 5 years ago that I'd be giving Ella's anything less than 5 stars,…read moreI would have been shocked. Alas... I have been a faithful Ella's shopper for...oh man, a long, long time. 10 years at least. They used to be in this tiny, tiny place and while they did have some pricey, vintage and vintage-inspired clothes, they also had a substantial amount of real vintage, reasonably priced, *amazing* stuff. In particular, I recall that they always had once rack of adorable vintage blouses and none of them were over 30 bucks. I have an incredible lightweight black wool jacket from the 30s that is one of my all-time favorite pieces and I can think of at least three other items that I bought years ago and still adore. A few years ago or so they moved into a huge, beautiful space, still on Front Street. (Side note: I really wish they hadn't gotten rid of their old logo. It was beautiful and what they have now looks like something from Photoshop 101.) Like I said, the space is beautiful and they did a great job on the interior design, but....man, I can just not afford anything in there anymore. And I pretty much literally mean that. The bountiful rack of under-$30 blouses has been reduced to maybe 5 or so only "OK" items. Everything else is very expensive and a lot of it isn't vintage--just the same stuff you see in a lot of these high-end, plastic-y, tourist-trap "SoHo" boutiques that cater to women under a size 10. Don't get me wrong--a lot of the clothes are still beautiful and they do still have a formidable vintage section. Also, they sell Frye boots which I really, really love. I'm just disappointed to see the turn toward catering to tourists and townie yuppies with money. Something else--the staff is stylish and nice, but *way* too pushy. I hate when people try to sell me things when I'm just looking around. Also when they make me feel bad for not buying anything. I still have a place in my heart for Ella's and I still go in every time I visit T.C. I also do recommend checking it out--it is very beautiful and worth looking at! I just wish I could afford to do more than look.
