I used to work here, and I still love it and the merchandise! Leaf is amazing and fair to her employees, and my coworkers were hardworking, welcoming, kind, friendly, honest, and helpful! Thanks for a very positive work environment. And I will be back to shop there when I’m home for the holidays!

I like coming here to check out the affordable items they have, and currently with a 30% off clearance going on, some of the items really are a great deal. Unfortunately, I didn’t find anything to purchase yesterday, or maybe that’s fortunately, but the lady working there wasn’t pushy for a small store and let me browse in peace. So as the name suggests, the jewelry is vintage or at least older, and the clothes are new. They sell jewelry holders, bags, purses, candles, and other various items.

I adore this place. They have wonderful things, and offer layaway to make things affordable. Everyone is always super nice as well.

It took weeks and weeks of walking by this store front for me to finally walk in. A beautiful spring/summer dress was calling my name, and at $ 48 how could I refuse? The feel of this boutique is classy meets artistic. I poked about everything else in this little shop: dresses, hats, jewelry, bags… I want about 70% of the merchandise in this store. The lady working behind the counter was nice and helpful– she even snagged my size off of the display mannequin seeing there were only larger sizes on the rack. If you’re a gal looking for new clothes or accessories, definitely drop into this place.

Even though I have eschewed buying new clothes this year, I love this store. The eclectic mix of antiques, fun dresses, interesting accessories makes it feel like a treasure trove. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, offering just the right amount of help. I had a fun mother-daughter shopping experience here and they frequently have fabulous sales. Interesting clothes I have not seen elsewhere!

This is my favorite store. If you want to get me a gift certificate make it for here. I have had several pieces of jewelry bought here including my engagement ring X2.(Thanks to a heartless thief.) Regardless, I always stop here to see if a similar item has appeared. I have bought several shirts here. They have really nice stuff, and I would like to visit their other location on Martha’s Vineyard. I have a feeling that it would be worth it.

First thing about vintage: it’s not a vintage store. Vintage sells new clothes and jewelery/accessories, some of which are vintage influenced. Second thing about vintage: It’s fabulous. Vintage has a great, eclectic selection of clothes and accessories that have a pretty, feminine aesthetic. The jewelery selection is strong. They have a wide range of styles and it’s easy to find unique pieces. The reason I docked a star is that its greatest strength is also its greatest weakness. The prices and styles can vary a lot from piece to piece and season to season. You might see very reasonably priced dresses hanging next to blouses that cost three times as much, and there are youthful styles mixed with really matronly pieces. This isn’t objectively a bad thing, but it does mean that you can’t always know what to expect(besides gorgeous jewelery). It’s worth noting that when they have a sale, they _really_have a sale. At the end of the season, there will sometimes be a discount on nearly every article of clothing in the store.

Love the jewelry. I am hit or miss on the clothes. Have bought some fabulously unique pieces but sometimes they are too out there and expensive for me because I love a bargain.

I adore this place for having a variety of really cool accessories and gorgeous clothing. I don’t love that the clothing often comes with a boutique price tag, but that’s the nature of the store. And I’m the kind of girl who buys cheap basics in the clothing department and then wears loads of ridiculous costume jewelry on top of it. I’ve bought a really cool snake cuff bracelet here for a decent price, considering the size and quality of the piece. I also bought a cheap strand of beads here that I wear a lot. I’m complimented on both pieces every time I wear them. The service is excellent. Every time I’ve gone into the store, even when I leave without buying anything, the folks running the place are very friendly and helpful. At one point, I discussed possible outfits with which to wear my shiny new snake cuff with the shopkeeper and she gave me some great ideas. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Coolidge Corner, searching for something other than Gap.

An amazing place with a drool-worthy selection of jewelery — both costume and fine. I got holiday gifts for my mom, sister, and best friend here… and then I came back after Christmas for the sale and got myself a gorgeous piece too! The clothes aren’t for me — but I’m more than happy to stick to the accessories. Give them a try!

This shop is quite cute, but I’m really writing about the jewelry and the girls who work here. They are honest, sweet, and very helpful. After visiting Eva B next door and dealing with the bitchy attitude of the woman who worked there, these girls were a refreshing change. I love that they have the Pilgrim jewelry line as well, one of my favorites! They have a huge selection of jewelry and a great range of costume to moderately expensive choices. I’ll be stopping in here again soon!

Shopping for inexpensive cool jewelry, funky bracelets and killer earrings? Definitely do come in! Shopping for clothes — they do have them, but the pieces are very reminiscent of Eileen Fisher or DKNY — kind of for older women, sort of vintage, but just expensive, kooky, but not too cool things(dresses and tops mainly). I got a couple of knit winter hats there — really nice! Cool chunky watches.

This is such a cute store. It’s close enough to where I live that I wander in all the time just to look around. 30 trips and only a few of them included purchases, so they clearly don’t mind you browsing or bother you in any way. In fact, they are quite friendly and helpful. The jewelry is beautiful, and they have wonderful gift items, like handbags or pocketbook mirrors. The prices are kind of high but as another reviewer mentioned, they do have sales pretty often. For a cute little boutique in this area, the prices are still pretty good — better than Mint Julep.

I fell in love with this place when I accidentally stumbled upon it. It’s a little hard to find since it’s ½ underground, but it’s worth the look. They have a great selection of vintage, funky, and modern jewelry with an emphasis on local designers. They also have a shop in Edgartown. I got a beautiful lucite, diamond and crystal necklace here that was priced very reasonably.

This place is an awesome find – they have both elegant vintage and funky new jewelry and accessories. The vintage jewelry can be a bit pricey, but they have sales often enough that it’s managable. In addition to the jewelry they stock fun little gift items like those themed soaps and chapsticks from BlueQ( ). They also have clothing, though it seems to be designed more for the older Brookline clientel. The staff is always extremely nice and they’re very knowledgable. They have never been pushy, and they’ve always taken the time to explain the background of any of their vintage items. It’s in Coolidge Corner kinda tucked in between an art gallery and a pet accessory store, and it’s easy to walk right past it. Take the time to find it – it’s totally worth it.
