penny lane — Local services in Traverse City

Penny Lane has just the kind of vibe you'd imagine upon hearing the name! The location is great if you're downtown on foot, but parking can be a pain sometimes. I suggest finding a side street a few blocks away if driving, it is a short pleasant stroll to front street through a beautiful neighborhood. I love the booth consignment model at Penny Lane, it makes it feel easy and casual, like you're shopping individual closets that are all unique! If one isn't your style, just check out a different booth-they are restocked frequently and change every week. Prices are set by consignors so they can be all over the place, but I've never seen anything priced delusionally high- the majority of things are very affordable and great quality. I love the mix of Men's, women's, vintage, and handmade ♡ I don't always find something I can't live without, but I always have a great time visiting and seeing what's new. When I do find something I want it's always something I know I'll never want to part with! If you're shopping on Front St, Penny Lane is a must stop shop! I swear it feels like the sun is always shining inside...

Penny Lane is a super cool spot that offers a variety of styles and sizes, due to the nature of its consignment process; each consignor has their own stall, offering a quick description of their offering via a postcard at the top of each stall (eliminates the need to dig for goodies, if that's not your thing), which means you may end up with a variety of things in a single stall (old vintage, new vintage, currently trending, athletic wear, etc.) and a specific array in another (ex: hand-dyed vintage silk slip dresses). Not just any old thing can be consigned, however. Jenna, the owner, oversees what comes in, ensuring items are in good condition and fit the overall vibe of Penny Lane. Both men's and women's (with a touch of childrens-wear) apparel, shoes, bags, accessories, and other fun items. The shop is thoughtful decorated, clearly organized, clean, and interesting. Highly recommend. Thank you for my tartan wide leg vintage pants and chunky crop sweater Jenna + consignor...

FAVORITE PLACE IN TRAVERSE CITY. Cool vibe, wonderful artists with amazing items for sale in their own booths, owner is friendly and helpful (even when under the weather and politely wearing a mask for the customer's sake). I ran into a booth renter while onsite and it was delightful to let them know that their booth was one of the first booths I stepped up to. It's a fresh, lovely take on resale and when introduced to my friend group, made 5 more life...
