Charming Charlie – Houston

EXTREMELY upset to hear about Galleria’s loss of one truly AMAZING store. Charming Charlie is much more than just and accessories store with affordable prices and amazing choices. It also features spme pretty awesome clothes (many high school gals shop here for their balls, some may even pick an item of two for their prom). Their party dresses are cute as cute can be and prices seldomly reach 50 $. The store is color-​coded, making finding the perfect accessory for the outfit you have picked intuitive and practically NON-​time consuming.
Their shoe collection practically has promotional sales year long and, though it may not be Carrie Bradshow’s Manolos, you can find your next pair of 4″ stiletto heel pairs.
This mall has lost one truly amazing, spacious and intriguing store. Hoping the new location (s) will proce as great for the store and its aficionados, i wish CC’s new adventures the best of lucks.

Charming Charlie is one of my favorite boutique stores. When I was 14, the first store opened and every girl and her mom fell in love with its large selection of inexpensive, fashionable jewelry and accessories. Now I love that they have everything color coded and have added clothing too. When I can’t find something to match an outfit, this is the first place I come to. This particular store is my favorite location, all the employees have been friendly, the fitting rooms are nice and clean, and the store is big and has a wide selection.

good quality reasonable priced jewlery.

Really great sale going on right now. Buy one get one free on sale items. Friendly staff and good selection.

Gosh I love this place!
Everything is color coded. Gold here, silver there, coral there, turquoise here. It makes it easy to shop. Need a gold necklace, go to that corner, need a black bag, go over there.
Creative designs, great assortment. Scarves, hats, purses, every pieceof jewlery a girl could ever need.
Super friendly and helpful service. I bought a ring and within a week I lost a stone in it. When I came back to buy a replacement they not only helped me find the exact one (two weeks later) but also comp’d it as and «exchange» how nice is that?!
WIth service like that you know these guys will be around a while! Love you Charlie!

During my travel season, I visited one of these stores whenever I could find one and got a LOT of Christmas shopping done well before the holiday season grew near.
Charming Charlie might as well be a drug for an accessories fiend. With everything sectioned off by colors, walking around the store equates to walking along a rainbow of accessories, including everything from cocktail rings, necklaces, earrings, clutch bags, bracelets, watches, scarves, flats, rain boots, sweaters, and even carry-​all bags that can fit laptops. The ladies at this store are super friendly, and the location itself is a nice size (though I’ve been to one in GA that had a bigger selection).
The ladies working let us know that their online store is up and running, and they should be constantly adding accessories on there to match what they offer in stores. Additionally, new stores are popping up nationwide, so there might be one closer than you think!

My experience in «numeric-​form»…
1. I like that sections of the store are color coordinated.
2. Jewelry is inexpensive. A bit more pricey than Sam Moon or Harwin St. but not by much.
3. Great handbag selection! No designer handbags, all are quirky/​cute/​plain/​trendy. While some are $ 24.99, I tend to always accidentally gravitate toward the ones that cost around $ 39.99. Dang it.
4. So much inventory to browse, so could be overwhelming.
5. I’ve shopped at multiple Charming Charlie’s, but this particular one always greets me with a big/​loud welcome :)

This place is like a HUGE Claire’s store, a little more grown up.
All of the accessories are organized by color, which is great if you are just trying to run in and buy a few things. It is hard not to spend less than a half hour in here.
The jewelry is cheap, and the rhinestones might come off some of the stuff if you will wear it every day. However, it is a little better quality than 21 For Love. This is more for if you have a special occasion, night out or a trip you are going on and you want a little something something.
If the quality was a smidge better I would give it 5 stars.

think of this place as a claires boutique, for grownups! everything in here is so pretty and sparkly, they have jewelry for ANY outfit. their prices are outstanding– however, buyer beware, it’s just cheap jewelry, and i’ve had a few pieces not last long. But if you go with that in mind… and watch your spending… charming charlie can be a girls best friend!

Charming Charlie opened a new Store in Naples, Florida. I shopped there during the first week of opening. I loved the store, and made a purchase this was on 8÷7÷10. The charge went on my debit card… On 8÷24÷10 my bank processed the same amount on the same date to a? Uniondale SD (Chain) in Uniondale, NY US… when I contacted my bank to check they came back later and said it was a valid charge. I then went to my banks Fraud Dept. and placed a complaint, that was on 9÷1÷10. Then as a fluke, I called Charming Charlie’s and was told that it was a double charge. I swiped my card once, does not sound right to me. I then cancelled the Fraud Complaint since the store said it was taking care of the oversite then. It is now 9÷10÷10 and still no credit. This has taken up 1 month of my time researching this. I really do not know what to think now, nothing like this has ever happened to me before… The 4 stars are for the great merchandise, but for being above board a
minus 4

Huge selection, pretty jewels, perfect if you are cool with the fact that your $ 12 necklace is going to break in a month in a half. No really. I don’t think I have ever purchased anything that has had any kind of long term shelf life. Very cute, a little on the expensive side, especially for three time use jewelry. Although, those three times, you do get compliments. Just sayin’…

It’s no secret I have the same boner for this place that others seem to have.
This location is just as dreamy as the other two I’ve visited. It also has that time-​capsule effect, in which you come out of the store to find that it is two days later.
I almost deducted a star. almost, only because I have a huge pet peeve involving employees when I visit any business. That pet peeve would be employees talking smack to/​with each other in front of customers. As soon as I see co-​workers not able to act like they are at work and aware of their surroundings, or losing their cool with each other (as happened in this location), the place loses a little bit of ‘charm’. No pun intended.
BUT I will stick to all five stars since this was an isolated incident. Every single time I have walked into Charlie’s the employees are very well-​mannered and helpful.
Still love ya, Charlie!

This place is dangerous… for your wallet!
It is huge and has every accessory you could dream of. I felt like the proverbial kid in a candy store. Believe it or not, I went to get a specific item and now cannot remember what that item was. Nor do I care. It was awesome!
I am definitely not as fashion savvy as I would hope to be, but I am trying to fix it. I am also notorious for not wearing jewelry or accessories. I am trying to change it, so I owe Charlie so much for helping me in this quest.
The store is located in the ground level of the Galleria near the food court and across the walkway from the Visible Changes location.
It’s about twice as large as the Hedwig Village location, and is arranged by color. Each color has a kiosk-​ish booth and rack of clothing. I could easily stay in there all day. In fact, if I win the lottery, I will go here within the first week of receiving money.:)
It is quite clean, reasonably priced, has QUALITY stuff, very helpful staff ladies, and more than enough space for you to linger and move around taking your time shopping without bothering others. Necklace and earring sets are (on average) $ 13ish, earrings are $ 5-​$ 8, purses are anywhere from $ 20-​$ 50, and tons, TONS more. My advice is if you want to celebrate something in your life, go here!

I’m still a fan! I went to Charming Charlie on a regular day (i.e. not the grand opening) and it’s still great. They have a good selection of clothes, accessories and shoes all coordinated by color and style. I can’t wait to go back!

I attended the grand opening party here last night and I am really excited about how awesome it was!
First of all, the event/​party was a lot of fun… tons of food, wine, gift bags and shopping, of course.
The employees were all really friendly and helpful and working really hard. There had to been a few hundred people in there… maybe more.
Any type of accessories you need, you will find here… necklaces, ring, braclets, earrings, belts, shoes, purses, clothes, hats, sunglasses, candles, x-​mas deco and gifts and SO much more.
Everything is arranged or organized by colors. There is a section of green, section of pink, section of animal print, etc.
So, that makes it really easy to find what you are looking for.
Everything is decently priced. And from past experiences at other CC locations… they will have specials and discounts often, so you can get some great deals.
The clothes are super cute… everything from casual solid color t-​shirts, to dresses, leggings, and cute, dressy tops. There are flat shoes, flip flops, house slippers, boots and heels.
The purses they have are AMAZING… hundreds to chose from… all different colors, sizes, styles, textures…
There really is something for everyone here! I will definitely be spending alot of time and some money here. And also I will be getting most of my x-​mas shopping done here :)

I also attended the grand opening of Charming Charlie’s last night and I think I’m officially in love. I was lucky enough to receive a swag bag chocked full of nice freebies, as well as enjoying all the food and wine there was to offer. Oh and course meeting the man himself, Charlie.
Now, I have been going to Charming Charlie’s since it’s first store opened on Harwin, but this is the Super Wal-​Mart of all the other Charming Charlie’s locations. The store is located in the old FYE music & video store space and it uses every space. When walking in, it can a bit overwhelming on where to begin, so my advise, make sure you have time so that you are able to browse through everything the store has to offer.
Like the other Charming Charlie’s, every little accessory you can think of is coordinated by color, which makes it so easy to find something that will go well with your outfit. This store however, has colored –coordinated accessories sectioned off in their own rooms as the sales people like to call them. With this location being the largest in Houston, there’s a variety of items to choose from ranging from bracelets, wallets, sunglasses, necklaces, rings, purses, ect., which really puts Claire’s and their sister store, The Icing to shame. There were so many cute pieces and items that I wanted, but would go broke in the process because there’s no way I could buy nearly every item in there.
Am I going back anytime soon? Heck yeah, but this time I’ll come in flats so I can prepare myself for the journey of finding cute jewelry and inspired by bags (lol) ahead of me.

I attended the grand opening of Charming Charlie’s flagship store in the Galleria, boy was I impressed. Not only does this store have every accessory imaginable, they also have great clothes! This location is huge and stocked with trendy accessories including jewelry, handbags, gifts and more. I was really impressed with the clothes, really cute stuff at reasonable prices. I didn’t see one thing in the store over $ 34!
Most of the clothing and accessories are organized by color schemes which makes shopping so much easier, especially if you are looking for a particular color outfit or jewelry. For the grand opening they had plenty of food and wine on hand plus door prizes and makeup demos.
All of the staff were very friendly and eager to help. I will most definitely put Charming Charlie on my list of stores to hit up when I’m at the Galleria!
