Bloom

Bloom, a curious and rather lovely boutique situated in the Northern Liberties neighborhood. This store is jam packed with beautiful clothing, and one of a kind eclectic jewelry featuring an array of over 70 artists! When walking into the store, it’s much like coming into an artist’s studio. Everything is neatly curated, displays are kept fresh and everything is color coordinated. I’ve shopped at both the Northern Liberties store and the Newark store, and have always had wonderful experiences dealing with employees and finding the right item. Definitely my favorite boutique in the city :)
P.S They’re also dog friendly!

Two years in a row, bloom was the perfect place to Christmas shop, great little boutique with amazing little and big items, clothing, bags, candles, everything you could possibly imagine ! I love it ! The other thing I really love is the warm feeling of the store, this location is way better than the store in the piazza ! I am glad they moved to a nice place that suits the merchandise they sell ! Last but not least is the girl that runs this store, she is such asset, always smiling and welcoming and truly lovely to talk with !

i absolutely love bloom! i typically go in here looking for a gift and can’t help but come out of the store with something for myself too. i could spend hours looking through the variety of hand-​picked items: eclectic jewelry, pretty home décor, fun clothes & cute, fun gifts. it’s not exactly inexpensive, but like i said, i’m usually there for gifts — for my mom, brothers’ gfs, friends, everyone. the owner is great too– she’s always welcoming and never pushy. i haven’t been to their new location on 2^nd st yet (they moved from the piazza), but in the last spot, everything in the store was beautifully displayed, clean and a great place to get ideas if you’re not sure what to buy someone. if you’re in nolibs, don’t miss this spot!

This is my favorite boutique in the city. It’s relatively small, but jam-​packed with carefully selected whimsical-​yet-​chic clothing, housewares, and accessories. The staff is superb. They are attentive without being pushy and really know the brands and styles they carry. I highly recommend it.

Went exploring in Northern Liberties with a friend of mine who was visiting in Philadelphia. We came upon Bloom, and boy what a fun treat that was! The store is not very big, but it is jam-​packed with delightful designs and funky frocks you just can’t wait to try on. I put on a fedora that I came across, and when it was time to leave the store I simply could not take it off my head! So I had to buy it, clearly! As soon as I walked out, I got two or three compliments on my new hat! So fun.
When you don’t know what to get for the woman who has everything, come to Bloom, and you’ll be sure to find something unique and fun that she’ll love.

Bloom, a rather curious boutique with exceptional selection and meticulous presentation. This isn’t your usual slopshop, and yes it is more weighted towards women’s fashion, but I truly mean this when I say there is something for everybody.
Last year, I did all of my Christmas shopping for the fine ladies in my family at Bloom. I plan on doing the same this year. I am a person who marvels at truly unique and original ideas, especially in areas where the unique and profound no longer seem to reside. With brand names becoming more and more generic (I mean seriously, what is the difference between the clothes at Hollister, American Eagle, and Abercrombie?), Bloom screams INDEPENDENT from every piece of clothing and human peripherals that line its racks and shelves. Beautiful New York fashions as well as local flair make this location just as amazing as the original Bloom in Newark, Delaware, as well as completely unique to the environment it occupies in Northern Liberties.
I smile upon the day Bloom takes things to an entirely new level and begins to offer more in the line of Men’s fashion. If that day comes, I would expect the execution of such a concept, would be as flawless as the store is today.

Walking into Bloom on Sunday, I had no idea what to expect, but I was surprised to find that the tiny shop was stuffed with clothes, accessories, soaps, candles and other little trinkets. I saw about a million great stocking stuffers during my short visit. I’m still thinking about the sequined business card holder I saw and wishing there was someone on my Christmas list who could use it.
I didn’t end up purchasing anything, but I did walk away impressed by the selection. I will definitely stop by again the next time I need a cute gift for a friend or my sister.

This boutique is one of the best I’ve ever been into. From clothing to décor, perfume to journals. this store has it all. Everything is unique but not on a level that makes it un-​shoppable. Literally there is something for every type of girl. Some of the clothing in the store is higher end brands, as well as higher end prices (some not all) With that being said everything is also of VERY high quality. There are tons of things here that you will most likely never see anywhere else. It is Well worth checking out/​falling in love with.

This store is a dream come true for any girl (or guy) who loves art, has a sense of humor and an eye for beauty! The whole store is stimulating and filled with fresh and curious things. The atmosphere is wonderful, the employees are well educated and genuinely nice and helpful. Everything is high quality. Everything I’ve purchased in this little boutique has held up wonderfully and is much more unique and less expensive than the competitors have priced the same merchandise. Simply put, this is my favorite store ever :-)

The clothing at Bloom is so cute, absolutely gorgeous selections all around, but entirely overpriced. I was at the Piazza on a Sunday for a film festival and I couldn’t wait for the little shop with such beautiful window dressing to open up.
After lunching at PYT, I made my way over. I was attracted to a number of items but found them all to be outrageously priced. I know the brands and I know I can find them for cheaper elsewhere (Tulle, BB Dakota, etc.), so why is it so pricey here? Do the hipsters in the neighborhood have huge bank accounts to spend on this stuff? Anyway, I couldn’t leave without buying something little, because everything here is too cute. I purchased a long silver necklace made of oversized round links. It’s cute and I’ve worn it a couple times already. Does this place ever have a sale? I would love to pick up a few dresses but alas, $ 100+ for a Spring frock is just way out of my price range. Back to the consignment stores with me!
Parking is FREE in the lot near Piazza. Worth checking out the general area here, a few cute shops and good spots for eating!

Once upon a time, I was hosting a table at the Piazza and it was FREEZING. I walked into Bloom with high expectations and those expectations were met! I needed a transitional spring sweater that matched my dress… tall order, I know. The shop person was incredibly helpful. She pulled out things from the back for me to try on, and was honest in her criticisms. They had so many unique styles that weren’t too hip or too mainstream. I will certainly be back for a more comprehensive shopping experience in the near future!

The first time I walked into bloom, I found the coat that I could only envision in my dreams. In terms of products it’s a fairly standard boutique mix — carefully picked clothes, bags separated by color and style, trinkets (flasks, ornaments, small plush animals), and accessories (sunglasses, tights, scarves, etc). There are some nicer boutique clothing pieces (e.g. currently, a great brown oversized blazer, a gorgeous gold/​off-​white velvet nye dress, really nice ivory light winter jacket, and many others). There’s a fair amount of variety in the clothing (most boutiques I’ve been to carry only a couple of brands/​designers) both in terms of where it comes from, style, season, color, etc.
There’s a mix in pricing ranging from some more expensive gear down to a nice dress for $ 40 – 50. They have on hand some great gifts like great smelling candles, beautiful ornaments, tokyo milk perfume, and hand knitted gloves. The highlight of this place, however, is probably their handmade jewelry. They have some beautiful rings from an artist in California, lots of options in terms of monogram pieces, some more costumey-​cheap-​play type jewelry, and some beautiful and elegant earrings.
I’ve found the woman who has been working both times I’ve been in to be helpful and really easy going. I read about them this evening and it sounds like the owner originally opened her first ‘bloom’ location in Newark, DE about 8 years ago and just opened this as a second location (she went to college in Philly) on Black Friday of this year.
p. s. you get a cute green reusable bag that says i love bloom with your clothing purchase.
