Charming Charlie – Harvey

Love Charming Charlie. This location is pretty good. I can always get a parking spot right in front of the door which is nice. I don’t find that they have quite as much stuff as the Elmwood location, but I can usually find exactly what I need. Staff is kind of a hit or miss…

I love this store! As my daughter is going through Mardi Gras balls and parades I find everything I need for her here and cheap! Also love their purses and and wallets!

Such a CUTE store! It’s basically a Forever 21 type store that is focused more on jewelry and accessories than clothes, although they did have some cute tops.
I like that everything in the store is arranged by color. There was jewelry that was grouped by: orange, green, pink, clear, etc. They had a really cool sale section that was «buy one get one free» and some of the stuff was super cheap ($ 8 or less!). I didn’t buy anything this time, but I will definitely be back next time I am in the market for some jewelry that has a little «flash» to it.
My favorite section was probably the tiaras! Yes, I will definitely be picking one up when my birthday rolls around. Heck, it might not even take that long! Sometimes a girl just needs to wear a tiara, you know? They also carry a nice selection of evening «clutch» style bags.
It’s nice that the Westbank finally has a cute accessories store.

I gave this place 4 stars because I feel for women this is accessories galore. I’m not big on accessories, but this is a great place with selections for an occasion. So if you ladies have a gala or party you need to attend but no jewelry selection this is the place to go get it on a budget.
I’ve seen customers come in with coupons also, so sign up for their email services and you’ll get tons of emails about specials going on. Forewarning though, this place is dangerous for your bank account.
I’ve been cautious about my spending so it’s quite easy for me to peruse and leave with no purchases, but a shopaholic is different. You could walk out spending well over 100+ within a matter of 30 minutes or less.
The selection is quite various and they split it up into colors or print I suppose too. The bags in my opinion aren’t exactly worth it. From the few I picked up they were worth a little over 50. I’d rather put that money towards a bag more worth it. But don’t be discouraged by my opinion. If it makes you happy got for it by all means.
I’ve picked up quite a few things in store that I wanted like scarves and key chain accessories. But like I said I had to control myself before I walked out 100 bucks poorer!
Guys if you want to take your gf, wives, nieces, or siblings shopping I’d steer clear of this store unless you want to be stuck there for hours. She’d take forever going through everything and probably asking for you opinion. *hint hint*

New Store… Westbank expressway… Ample parking… Friendly staff…
Charming Charlie rocks!!! Love it!!!

It’s like Claire’s Boutique on steroids! You’ll find various styles of costume and trendy jewelry in any color. Each color section also has a small selection of clothes and purses similar to the styles you’d find in a boutique. Go there when you have time to browse because it’s likely you’ll get caught up in all the options!
FYI, a new location recently opened in Harahan at the Elmwood Shopping Center right across from the new Theo’s and Pinkberry.
