I really want to love this place knowing how much I shopped here when it was run by the original owner, Connie. The long, gray haired woman who is usually there when I've been in always has a snobbish attitude, acts inconvenienced when I've asked about sizes (note: they don't do sizes, they do bust/waist sizing) and she's just downright cold and aloof. Despite buying something every time i've been in, the lack of grace & mere "thanks for stopping in" is completely absent from this woman.

The advertised rummage sale drew us in! It was a sidewalk sale and it looked promising. Sadly, we were disappointed when many of the items outside in bins and tables were broken or damaged. I saw a cool vintage dress in a bin with a broken zipper for $18. Really? And that was 75% off the original price. I was also interested in a cameo bracelet, it had a broken clasp - $3? No thanks... it should've been $1 since you'd have to go to a craft store and spend several bucks on the repair. I know it's vintage but if it needs repair, the price should be dirt cheap. Inside, while the shop was neatly arranged, it was expensive. I'm glad we popped by for a gander, but I can't see myself returning. For vintage/retro clothes and jewelry, try the thrift shops or goodwill. Check out the awesome mural in the side of the building!

Lot of really cute stuff for women and men. Most of it is for sized small people. Prices are expensive. Staff is friendly and helpful. Shop is small but clean.
Take them your items. They may or may not buy them from you. They're pretty picky, which is not a bad thing.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Maat E.Fort Lee, VA2101Feb 14, 2021
Some Beautiful pieces
However the salesperson was very strange. It was off putting. Please do some vetting and select better employees. Her personality is not fit for human interaction. I hope to never see her again.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 19, 2019
I've been coming here for awhile since it's right across the street from my house and it's a treat! You can find vintage clothing in great condition for a fair price, take it home and breathe new life into it. Plus, no one else will be wearing it. The owner is personable and will be happy to help you find what you're looking for and more. She can give you great recommendations. You never know what you'll find and that's the fun!

Definitely a fan of the inventory- the shop is impeccably curated which is honestly nicer than digging through rack after rack of stuff in a larger store, and almost all of it is in excellent condition [vintage being what it is, sometimes stuff is worn or damaged, par for the course]. The prices are mostly pretty good, though they are still high enough you won't think you've stumbled into some sort of fantasy realm. The staff always seems a bit distracted while I'm in, though, and I'm not sure if it's timing or what. I thoroughly enjoy shopping here, however, and will ultimately likely give them pots of money.
Their mural outside is probably also my favorite in the whole city, so...Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ashley P.Philadelphia, PA37749112Jun 20, 2019
Stumbled upon this place during my 1 day stop in Richmond on my way to Charleston. Beautiful pieces. One of the best selections of vintage I've seen in awhile. And the woman managing the store was such a sweetheart. We really appreciated her hospitality. Definitely worth a stop!

What a great place! Not only did they prioritize health and safety, they were also sweet as can be. They have an incredible collection of gorgeous vintage clothing and accessories and it was very reasonably priced as well. I went in on a whim just to browse and walked out with my new favorite accessory. The kindness of the staff as well as the very fair pricing makes this one of my new favorite places.

Halcyon is by far the best vintage store in the area, if not the country. Connie has curated the collection to perfection. It is impossible to stop in without buying something.
The staff is so helpful and will answer any questions you have about different pieces, including good ways to style it in a way that is flattering and not dated. There is honestly no place like Halcyon. You can't help but smile after spending time there!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
