| - I wandered into Charming Charlie's and wandered out with a small bag of a couple of useful things. This store was described by an employee as a fashion boutique for women, which it definitely is. The items - inexpensive jewelry, clothes and accessories- are arranged by color. This is useful if you're in a hurry and want to buy a scarf to match an outfit or a gift in your friend's favorite color, but for a browser like me, this arrangement had the effect of making me feel like I'd seen the exact same item before- just in a different color.
You can find earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, handbags, scarves, hats and cute blouses, among a few other things, in this packed, but neatly organized, space. The music was upbeat and fun -I caught a good Sheryl Crow song on Soundhound that I will be adding to my music collection.
I left with some earring backs and one of those purse-holder doodads you use at work to hang your bag at your desk or cubicle. Useful, and inexpensive. There seem to be a lot of these types of stores around Las Vegas. This one doesn't stand out for me except for the divide-by-color concept and fun music, so that was cool. But because it's tucked away in a corner of Tivoli Village, I will probably not remember to come here often.
