Charming Charlies
i'm in love
i just recently found out about the store and went to the new one in Carle Place - OMG.
So much jewelry, so many shiny things! cute shirts, cute matching statement necklaces, matching earrings, funky bracelets.. and the best part is its all really inexpensive!
I got a few really cute summery tops (all for around $25 ea) and necklace/earring sets for $13 each.
i'm soooo excited to go there again!

Re: Charming Charlies
To be honest I have never heard of this store before then someone mentioned it here in regards to costume jewelry. I am not a jewelry person at all so I never looked into it. But when you said they have clothes I went to look at OMG! Their clothes are JUST my style Love the dresses. And the tops. I see they have one in Bayshore Mall. I might have to check it out.
How do the sizes run on the clothes?

I have been going to the one in Chicago for a few years and was so excited when they started opening around here.
Just don't join their mailing list -- you will get 50 emails a day!

I'm one of the ones who mentioned it, I love that place! I'm a big costume jewelry person, but I went on Friday and tried on some clothes for the first time. I bought a really cute top and a dress. I tried on a bunch of things and found it ran true to size.

This is so random! I went there for the first time in Detroit and LOVED it but I couldn't stay because my kids were being a PITA. So happy to hear there is one in CP!

I think it's all over the place. I bought 2 shirts and a dress. Dress was small and true to size imo but got shirts in med and one I should have sized down to a small.

I shopped in this store over the winter. Shirts were a little on the big size.

Wait til you go in the store.. its set up as a giant color palette so all the blue pieces are together, silver, green, red, gold etc.. i almost died i was so excited Sizes seemed to be pretty true, not small at all.
yes, its cheap, so yes you get what you pay for, but overall the quality didn't look nearly as cheap as some other places i've seen.

OMG i must go now. DH will hate this!!! LOL I don't mind things that aren't top quality for stuff like this. I am big on quantity when it comes to clothes for the summer, so if i can get a season or 2 out of it, I"m happy. The cheaper it is, the more I can buy!
