Owner is a month or more behind in accepting clothes to consign

Abbey Reller

This place is a gem! I stop by whenever I can to see what they have. They carry great brands -- everything from J.Crew to St. John! I got a classic red Burberry dress from here for just $80! Store is clean and employees are just lovely!

Nathalie Reshard

Good mix of clothing, everything was quality. Found an awesome skirt.

Amy Flynn

Stopped in today on a whim and found some beautiful pieces. Will be back for sure. Customer service was exceptional as well.

Elizabeth Risley

An amazing shop with great selection and deals! One of my favorite shops. My family asks me to take them when they come visit.

Holly Greig

Go there - you won't regret it.

Deb B

Great store! I often consign there and usually get a fair price for my items. Gayle and her team are always very nice although they get busy during certain hours. I have found a lot of really unique items there I will treasure forever. Like any other consignment store sometimes inventory is amazing, and other times it’s just OK. But that’s the reason to keep going back.

Kendra Julion

Great clothes for those who enjoy the challege of searching for great pieces. Found 2 pair of $2 jeans that are usually priced around $100. Beautiful jewelry collection and great options for shoes.

I really love this place, I have found some amazing pieces here and i also consign with them. Business is robust! The owner is not rude, but people often think so. I think she may have a lil nervous energy and pet peeves like she gets nervous when a line forms and she hates it when the counter gets messy; otherwise she is really cool. The employees are amazing! Super helpful, down to earth and mad nice.

Maria Ventura

Muy linda ropa bajo precio

Rachel Claire Lupberger

Good selection of clothes, but poor customer service. Had to wait 30 mins for a changing room because two girls were using the changing room while also looking for clothes throughout the store.

I love, love, love this store! I've been consigning and shopping with them since 1989. They always have wonderful items to choose from and I only bring her my best to consign.

The owner Gale is a very beautiful and friendly woman who has a nice consignment shop consisting of a lot of high-end merchandise where you can find good things at reasonable prices

Margo Brasil

This is one of my favorite Consignment shops. Inventory changes often, prices are fair, atmosphere is relaxed. Certainly bargains to be found here.

Meg Kuhagen

Great selection, reasonable prices, friendly staff - gem in Eastern Market.

Sarah VanB

High end clothing. More of a boutique than a thrift store. Not enough space and the customers were rude.

Maria J.P. da Silva

Gently worn and vintage clothing, shoes. Bags, fashion jewelry etc. Bargain prices.

Ruth Swaby

I both consign and buy at this wonderful " one of a kind" boutique. Small it is, but cozy, convivial and full to the brim with unique pieces. The greatest prize is the welcoming, friendly staff - the service is consistent with that found only at high end couture boutiques. Well done everyone, keep up the great work!

K. Chou

The owner and all the salespeople were so gracious and helpful. Prices are very reasonable. I found tons of stuff and wished I had more time to spend there. I will definitely come back the next time I am in town.

Winnie Yagan

This place is a hidden gem. I have to say that most of what I wear comes from this store. I have been coming here for so many years and they have the best deals in DC and the garments are all in 'Like new" condition. The store has changed hands in the past year, I like both the previous and current owners and the employees are nice. No one following you around and making you feel uncomfortable. Unlike other stores that I won't mention you can get your garments back if they do not sell. I come here for the deals and service so f you are looking for a spiffy space with sparkling lighting fixtures etc then this is not the place for you.

Samantha Eastman

Ugly clothes and too expensive to be a consignment shop

Tiff Kerr

Too expensive

Ebonie

Cute women's clothing store. They have career (business jackets, blouses), dresses, and causal clothes. Perfect for those who like to mix and match their outfits for a unique look.

Janet Purnell

Little $$$ but have a $2.00 bin with real good items
