Wasn't enticed  by the name/sign/window display, but the owner beckoned me in (and was super nice to my kids) and I actually saw a bunch of things I liked.  Comparable to LUCKY EXCHANGE, but maybe a little more mature.  Good prices, nice things, lovely owner.  I'll totally go back to shop.  I really hope the village can hold some retail!

Anyone else gone in yet?

What old space is this store in?  Do they have men's?

It's right next to the space they're clearing out next to EAV Thai and Sushi.  I think its most recent tenant was some sort of computer repair place

Hi EAV, I'm Christine, co-owner of Eclectic Gal Boutique.  I want to thank you all for your support since our opening in March.  For those of you who haven't been in the store yet, we are a woman's boutique with a strong focus on vintage clothing, shoes and accessories, but we also carried contemporary consignment pieces, home furnishings and jewelry made by a local artist (my business partner Shahnaz).  We try to feature items that are as unique as the customers who by them and carry sizes 0 through to plus sizes at very affordable prices. 

We should have a sign up in the next few weeks, but there's always a dress form outside of the store.  Come check us out!

Our hours of operation are:
Tuesday-Thursday 12pm-5pm
Friday-Saturday 12-7pm
Sunday-Monday CLOSED

During business hours, call 404
Out of hours, call 1(888)515-4332
We are also on Facebook: Eclectic Gal Boutique and Twitter @eclecticgalshop
email: christine@eclecticgal.com  Website COMING SOON!

Christine is just about the most enthusiastic, engaging person I've met! We looked through the whole store today. The kids tried things on and she was super sweet to them as well as to me. There are some absolutely beautiful pieces of clothing and jewelry in her store. If vintage is your thing, you'll be in heaven. If only I had somewhere fabulous to go so I could get one of her sparkly dresses.   :laugh:

I hope your store is a raging success, Christine!

Thanks for the kind words.  My partner Shana and I love what we do and love EAV.  A lot of ladies tell me that they drive by all the time and love the windows, and when then come in they are not disappointed!  So if you haven't stopped in yet, please do. Local support is so very important for us non food and beverage businesses in The Villiage.  We look forward to seeing you soon!

I stopped in the other day. Both gals were very nice and friendly. I didn't buy anything but I was very interested in a blingy holster type thing they had. I'll be sure to check it out for new merchandise when I'm in the village. I wish them well.

I bought a super cute white dress a few weeks ago! Have had many compliments on it.

Oh man, I'll be in as soon as I get my semester paycheck. I love thrifting/vintage shopping in the village.
