Came into The Black Cat with some serious mainstream thrift/vintage store fatigue. I love to shop secondhand, but the overinflation of prices these days, the lack of quality, and absence of vision has made shopping difficult. So what a truly refreshing experience this was! Emily’s picks are truly beautiful and marked very fairly. The collection is so well thought out, the atmosphere is cohesive, and Emily is such a delight! You can tell her heart is really in it from the way she’s curated her collection, her knowledge on each piece, and her warmth towards customers. If you’re looking for 100% wool, cashmere, cotton, linen, etc, In beautiful, romantic styles, you are going to have a very rewarding shopping experience here. I will be back again and again! PS.

I love this little shop! It's so thoughtfully curated with beautiful antiques and it's just such a nice space to wander around and find some unique pieces for your home. I bought a beautiful working typewriter from the 40s/50s and a framed map of Spain. Everything is so clean and lovingly displayed. You can tell the owner, Emily, puts so much time and attention into finding quality pieces and displaying them in a beautiful storefront. I'm so glad to see a business like hers...
