Ragin’ Daisy

Great little store selling unique, vintage jewelry, clothing and art work. Lots of rockabilly and day of the dead inspired stuff. The two sisters that run the shop are super friendly and always have dog treats ready behind the counter. Good selection of vintage men’s western and Hawaiian shirts.

Ragin Daisy is a fabulous store, packed full of fun, unique items and I wish I could make it in there more often and that I had more cash to spend there! I recommend this store to people almost daily in real life (I work nearby), so I’m well over due in posting a review of them on Unilocal.
Whether you have a quirky sense of style yourself, or are just looking for a little something special to make a more mainstream look pop– this store is for you. They have so much cool stuff!

Nasty employees, I do NOT RECOMMEND. Walked into the Ragin’ Daisy today, checking out their selection of interesting/​trashy clothes and such, and toward the back is a pretty display of ruffled pantalettes (i.e. short pantaloons). Because a friend of mine would love them, I took a picture. Well, my goodness! One of the women working there snapped loudly at me «You can’t take any pictures!» and gives me a hideous why-don’t-you-drop-dead glare. I immediately turned and apologized profusely, said that I didn’t know, so sorry, blah blah blah. And… nothing. it’s as if I’m not there. I get no response. So I looked for some sort of sign and saw a small one hanging near the back that said «No cell phones — no photos». I couldn’t leave fast enough and outside also found another small sign amongst several hanging outside. Ok, fine. But why don’t you try out practicing courtesy? Customer service? Maybe some mood stabilizers? Things like that rarely get to me like that, but this time I was really offended.
Eh… Plus, there’s nothing exactly exciting or unique there. Nothing that is going to threaten national security. Glad I didn’t buy anything!

Love-​Love-​Love this store!!! Been shopping here for myself and hubby for years. Great deals, Great ladies, Great shop

Great place!!! I stumbled upon this store just leaving Trashy Diva a few doors down. I feel like the prices are a little too high for my taste. And I live in New York City where everything is totally overpriced. I bought a pair of beautiful black flower earrings for $ 15, which I thought was worth it.
Some prices for the items in this store is a good price, while the other high prices for the items I don’t think is worth it. But over all, I really liked the lady working at the register (maybe she is the owner). I thought she was very polite and nice. And I really like the store. I definitely recommend this store for buying gifts to your friends back at home. It’s Cute! :)

Um I don’t understand all the negative reviews! The townies here really think that their taste in boutiques is so great! Who cares. This is a cute small place with a few great items. Its overpriced. Its the city! Deal with it! As far as customer service goes, its a boutique! In the french quarter. This is not barney’s ny! Get over yourselves. Do you really expect a walking tour of the 600 sqare feet of space! This store is cool and the people are sweet.

Oh yeah! My all time favorite store in the quarter. The most wonderful selection of glittery things, vintage fabulousness, cute kitsch, and great pieces of Classic Hardware and Hotcakes jewelry. The owners are amazingly sweet, and I must say they both have the most mesmerizing eyes on Earth! But I digress… accessories are what separates us from the beasts, so get to the Daisy, now!!!

Ragin Daisy is the best! I dont know what day Mallory walked in there, but i walked in and was greeted immediately by the girl behind the counter who introduced herself to me and went out of her way to help me find what i needed. I have ordered outfits from them on a rush job and they sent the stuff to me super fast — and even threw in earrings to match my outfit! I travel for a living and love to shop. I have shopped in the best cities in the world, Milan, Stockholm, Paris, London. NYC and Ragin Daisy is right up there with the best of them. Their store is original and kitschy and they are wonderful when it comes to customer service and really go the extra mile for their customers. Mallory must have gone in the wrong store!

Great shop with cool wares! Amazing selection of vintage clothing in fab condition. I especially loved the high quality vintage leopard coats.
Perfect for quelling your vintage clothing fetish! Also they have a lot of cool chotchkes and fun jewelry items. Mens stuff too!

Ragin’ Daisy saved my Halloween! I was walking around town a few days leading up to the big holiday when I noticed a lot of MEN/​Trannies wearing the same costume as I brought. Booooo
I was starting to feel frumpy and being a big girl I knew I had very few options… i dropped in to «fleurty girl» and quickly turned out, this is the kind of place where I could shop in the earring department only.
I walked a little further and saw ‘Voluptuous Vixen” which turned out to be a lot of ponchos and various forms of hiding out under fabric.
Feeling nearly defeated I found a storefront with beautiful petticoats out front. It was «Ragin Daisy» I walked in to a magical wonderland of options including the CUTEST lacey bloomers that fit my hips! The ladies at the counter were totally nice too and gave us some absinthe gum balls. I can not wait to return to nola and show my friends this store.
If I could ask for anything at all it would be for more more MORE selection :)
Thanks for helping me feel girly for halloween.

This place is super awesome. There needs to be more little shops like this one in NOLA (especially coming from Chicago!). I love all the punk rock items there are. I just wish there was more Cupcake items ;) I’m definitely bringing my friends here when they come to visit!

I have loved this store since the Jefferson Street Days and am glad to see the girls open up shop in the Quarter again! It was cool having them as neighbors when they were on Wright Street in Pensacola, but this store is way too cool to stay in a small town. There is always something curious to find, and you don’t have to get icky mall germs all over you to get it! If you like funky clothing and unique accessories, the Daisy has everything from vintage to vinyl!

This place had a great mixture of fun and funky housewares and stationary, locally made fashions, and vintage clothing. The employee who was there when my friend and I stopped by was very friendly, and while they don’t have dressing rooms they do have a full length mirror where you can slip the dresses over your head and get an idea of whether they will fit or not. I bought two very pretty vintage dresses in near mint condition for only $ 30. I only wish I would have had room in my suitcase for the purple poodle watering can. A side note: this might seem weird but this place smells amazing, I don’t want to wash my dresses or I might forget the smell! It is like a mixture of old ladies house, lavender, and some particularly pungent flower.

Hands down, one of the best and most fun/​awesome stores in the FQ ever! They have tons of neat jewelery and clothing from local artists, plus tutus and other cute accessories you would have to search for everywhere to find. The two sisters that run the store are the nicest and most helpful people. This is my favorite store, and if you are visiting the Quarter, this is a must go and see PRONTO!
This store has awesome clothes, and whenever you are in search of a unique and totally awesome outfit, accessories and all, Ragin Daisy is the place.

ECSTATIC to have Ragin’ Daisy back in my life for all things girly. I used to frequent the shop when it was Uptown, now it is right around the corner from my work in the Quarter.
From Tutus to barrettes, vintage dresses to make-​up, this is your place. I even found a watering can that I must go back and get pronto because it is too embarassing to water your plants out of an old milk jug. Especially when you can have one shaped like a Lucky Cat or a frog! Another bonus, the women who work here are so friendly (a rarity in the retail underworld) and remembered my face from YEARS ago. Wow.
Need a costume, or maybe gift for a lady in your life? She’ll love you if you come on down to Ragin’ Daisy.

Oh, Ragin’ Daisy had the perfect leopard print coat that actually FIT! I wish I would have bought it, but I knew it wouldn’t fit in my suitcase for the trip back home. Regret!!!

I have to say if you are looking for a cute boutique in New Orleans, you should probably look elsewhere.
Although the store does have a few cute items, the staff made our trip to the store a waste of time.
Sarcastic, condescending, and apparently unable to get off their cell phones to offer us any assistance, the staff made my trip to this store a nightmare.
I truly love New Orleans, and I’m proud to say that many of the stores in the city have wonderful sales associates who are kind and willing to help you when you need it. Other boutiques in the city don’t view their customers as an inconvenience.
If I had been a tourist, I feel that the staff’s rudeness and sarcasm would have ruined my view of the city. Thankfully, I’m a local and know that there are plenty of better stores in the city where you can find the same items for cheaper.

Ragin Daisy RULES! Best one stop shop for all things fabulous!
From vintage clothing, not only in good condition, but prices where you can afford it! Good for guys and dolls!
Loads of beautiful jewelry, some one of a kind!
If your new to New Orleans and want to experience southern hospitality at it’s finest, along with a store chock full of unique gifts to buy everyone you love, and treats for yourself. this is your place.
Plus, the owners are as sweet as pie!
Come in and see why both visitors, and locals all love this awesome shop!

Most fun you can have in NOLA sober! This store is full of kitch and glamour, rhinestones that make our inner-​cowgirl sing and punk rock t-​shirts that will make you want to punch the crap out of your significant other. I love this place.
I had my eye on this t-​shirt I really really really wanted. Then my daughter – a blossoming 12 year-​old fasionista found a hot pink crinoline skirt with red lace trim. What did I do… I put down my shirt and bought her the skirt. She work it out that night with jeans and a t-​shirt. We could have gotten both, the prices were awesome, but we were on vaction and I was trying to limit my clothing purchases.
Yep, I’m the coolest mom ever. But it was easy since I was in the coolest shop in New Orleans. They had more than just clothes. They had all kinds of decorative stuff, jewelry, I mean if it’s cool it’s there. And the service was AMAZING. It’s like everyone there is just cool and waiting to hang out and help you find stuff.
If you are in NOLA you need to be in Ragin Daisy!

OMG, this store is SO cute! When we walked by, they were closed, but we made sure to go back, and so glad we did. The store owner was super friendly, answered our questions (store related and otherwise), and helped point out things we might be interested in.
They carry fun and funky gifts and accessories, vintage clothes for men and women, and all kinds of unique finds, including a bra with vintage doll faces on the cups.
Attention all Burners, if you happen to be in the French Quarter before heading to the playa, make sure you stop in here. Great finds!
