Eva B: Where Consignment meets Boutique and Owner Brings Chic
Eva B--Best Consignment Shop in the City 07/27/2007 Posted by loveconquers
Last winter after being introduced to Eva B Consignment--I took the liberty to shop away--at what I like to call my favorite one-stop shopping consignment in the world. Eva B Consignment is very unique place to shop, for the woman who is looking to stand out in the most unique way. What makes this place so different, rich and unique, is the style that she brings to her establishment. Exotic, competitive, rich in color style and fit, is the best way I can describe some of the items that she hand picks--and consigns. If you have not had the opportunity to stop by and check out this store--take the time, you will not be dissipointed. Her friendly and welcoming nature will lure you in and the quality of her clothing, accessories and high-end shoes, sandals, beautiful vintage jewerly, designer dresses, that feel as if they were tailored to fit your body...will keep you coming back for more and more like me. Frequent customer.
Pros: Vibrant, Amazing Merchandise to choose from, Owner Engaging
Cons: For the Quailty of her Merchendise, a larger space would do

Boutique Metamorphasis
Today was a wonderful day, for many reasons:
One. I had an opportunity of seeing a dear friend - whom I have not seen in a long time. And dually while visiting, I was treated as a valued customer - pampered at her chic consignment and growing boutique with the most elite shopping experience alive, an experience that is always liberating.
After 7 months - she desired as, to catch up and connect. So today, not having much on my plate to consume, I decided to drop in and surprise her in a way she would indeed remember. I find that the the shop houses so many great moments for the two of us, moments of connecting both emotionally and spiritually, moments of sharing laughter and tears. After thinking, I noticed the time.
It was almost six o' clock, I thought to myself: "I don't want to just show up and risk the chance of missing her," so I called. I called and posed as a customer; it was the first reasonable thing that came to mind. So i did. I called and asked, "what time do you close?" Her reply was, "I close at 6p."
Considering it was 6p at that very moment, I asked squeaky voiced as I held the tip of my nose shut, "Is there was any way you could remain open until I make it in ... I shared fairy tale of how I was in a few days ago and saw a few really nice pieces, I desired to purchase and would definitely ... before I could finish she said, "Can you get here in thirty minutes?" I said yes, yes of course, maybe fifteen." She said, "Come, I'll be here."
Much like Eva, the kind of woman who's consideration for others surpasses any one's I've ever seen; one who seeks to give her customers a full 360 shopping experience, adding fashionably sound, genuine advice, a personal sense of flair and assistance. I was not surprised, but I will say I was eager to get there.
Twenty minutes later, I arrived. I walked through the door and she froze. her mouth dropped. She smiled. "Sasha ... " she uttered as she shook her head. I closed the door gently and said, "I guess I am going to have to make a great big purchase, considering you stayed open for me." As it dawned on her that I was in fact the "customer" who called requesting for her to stay open a tad bit longer, she whimsically stated, "You ... " with a contorted facial expression that read, I am going to get you.
I smiled with a I'm here face.
Excited I made it. Excited she stayed. I love Eva. I love her drive, her yielding personality; she's so warm and creative; so crafty and business oriented.
The greatest consignment/boutique store owner I've met, ever.
To give you a picture, I'll say this: Our night began at 6:32 p. It ended roughly two hours later at 8:32p. Primarily because I had a business call to return. Other than that I would have still been in the shop, conversing and shopping, enjoying Italian pastries and feeding her poodle, Gucci dogie treats. Stopping by Eva B, never fails to inspire me - at this time in my life, this visit took me to the a new dimension: a Boutique Metamorphosis I like to call it. I say that because my experience visiting the shop causes on different levels an involving conspicuous similar to the biological process where an animal undergoes a relatively abrupt change, developing and structuring into a woman ... I have and am growing.
The handpicked pieces that I got that evening ... I am so proud of. It's like a treat one is given when they least expect it. Treats filled my bag to the brim.
And I left Eva B with of host of internal inspiration as well. The decor: It was my pleasure to witness the construction of this beautiful shop of hers. Perfect paint lining the walls, assorted with welcoming hues of pink and green, full-length, small sized, metallic, mirrors strategic placed around the shop. New Pieces: Vintage dresses and skirts sectionalized; designer jeans - brand new, capri, wool, cargo and pants in every style imaginable, Bell-bottoms trousers, satin, sleek skinny legged pants -- Shoes: pointy- toed and stylishess sandals, for every occasion. Racks of sweaters jeans and other items marked down - to nearly free.
For me, Eva's meticulous presentation of the multidimensional array of jewelry she sells from fresh water pearls to Judith Jack marcasites - the multitude of signature pieces she hand picks and consigns from customers and, now adding to that list boutiques alike are breathtaking.
The rave and rant for me has much to do with the amazing pieces that I always, find without looking. I mean, it does help to have such a talented buyer such as Eva, as not only the owner of this shop, but also a friend, who knows my style as well as her merchandise - and together combines the two: a fashionista in eyes. Because of her, I stop, shop, converse, connect and metamorphosing in one stop at Eva B's Consignment Shop.
A Blessing it is.

Letters to Shea
Shea!
Woke up at 7 a. Just knew I was going to talk to you.
after an hour of working diligently to connect via skype - having missplaced my credit card, searching for that. Was in the trash outside. lol. Girl, I got through and heard the gentleman at the front desk three times, As I was screaming Shea Rose, please. He kept repeating the welcome to the hotel address. Then it dawned on me, as you said I need a head set. "Good job Sash," I thought. Consistent, I reached back and grabbed head phones of Soliny's and again I could hear the gentleman, but he couldn't hear me. Boooooo! The great news is I have the account activated and money available to talk, just didn't work out for today.
I have the day off and am heading to NYC with Jessica and her husband. Just knew I'd hear your voice this morning 10:16 a - here anyway, so much so, I even tried calling you from my cellular phone. Certainly looking forward to the opportunity to hear your lovely voice, Shea, as soon as I step foot back into Broad Street, it's on lady! You and me - Skypin it.
Love you so ... My prayers of peace, tranquility, love and new revelations are with you.

Freedom
Your Presence
Much like the presence of God,
In your presence I have found peace –
The [very] peace that passeth all understanding
A peace I've dreamed of, which is certain and warm and sincere.
Where radiant energy lives and livens my spirit,
Where exposure is used for healing, to develop and to hone my inner woman.
Your presence, this peace, is unparallel to anything I have ever experienced on earth.
Creating an overwhelming synergy – lifting my heart's desires
And making me whole. To God be the Glory.
The truth in your presence is free, reality is harmonic, visions come alive, and senses are awakened.
It is in your presence much like our Father's – where I am blessed and free
And truly desire to be.
