This year is going to be a big one because, well, it’s our last one. After the Sidewalk Sale in August, we’ll be merging the Shoe Hive (on Fairfax Street) into the Hive’s location at 315 Cameron Street - and won’t have the awesome courtyard. This sale is a little bittersweet for me, and the deals are going to be major!

Since it’s officially summer and the Fourth of July is almost here we wanted to help everyone spruce up their summer accessories. Starting June 27, all straw accessories are 50 percent off! Shop online or in store at The Shoe Hive, check them out!

We've now hit that mark -- where we've moved the layout around a bit, know where all our items are stored, when the mail arrives, etc. --  and we're ready to celebrate our Grand Opening on Upper King! Join us this Saturday to toast to the journey and the strength of community.

The one item that folks come in looking for the most from April through July is: white jeans. To help everyone out with this summer staple we are having a White Denim Sale, June 24 through June 30. All white denim will be 20 percent off online and in store. 

In lieu of summer camp for adults and to prepare you and your kiddos for their own amazing camp experience, our stores have decided to spend July bringing a dose of camp to Old Town. We’re calling it Camp Stone Soup!

I’m sharing my favorite spring shoes since they are all marked down to 50 percent off. I mean, these shoes are the good stuff – made by master crafters in Italy!

Highlights include a full drink and food menu with shareable plates. Megan shared that we should expect, “a great mix of cocktails – dirty martinis, espresso martinis, sangria and lighter cocktails for the summer.” And of course, plenty of neon, rainbows and iconic art for those photo opps!

To kick off this summer and celebrate the passing of another school year, we’re throwing a little party at Pippin Toy Co. on June 12 from 1pm to 4pm. The fun will start with crafting and milk and cookies.  

Over the week we have featured our favorite items from The Shoe Hive and The Hive. Now it’s Yellow Jacket's turn, and it is with great sadness that I have to announce that it isn’t just the start of the spring sale; it’s our Going Out Of Business Sale.

Madeline picked some of her favorite pieces that she can’t believe made it to markdowns, along with items that already found their way into her closet this spring. Check ‘em out!

I had walked by Ms. Moxie’s Moonshop more than a few times and was always curious about what was inside. The name kind of intrigued me, too. Did they sell crystals? Was it a hippie shop and did they howl at the moon?

The debut of AIP BESPOKE brings a quarterly suite of bespoke and custom experiences ranging from design-your-own accessories and hand-painted monogramming to made-to-measure tailoring and custom footwear from some of South America’s most elite polo boot makers.

It's fun, it's a whirlwind, it's intense and it's exhilarating all at the same time. We don't want to leave, yet we're so happy when we return home.

We host lots of parties and events, but we’ve never hosted one that’s just to say "thank you."

I have been in business for just over 20 years now. Since the beginning, I have been blessed to have the best customers around!

We always get lots of dads bringing in kids to shop for mom, and I’ve noticed over the last 20 years that jewelry is always an easy pick

Instead of bourbon and brats for men to shop for the women in their lives, we are doing milk and cookies for kids to shop for the mothers in their lives. It’s a kiddos-only party!

We have a great lineup of fun things just for kids. Considering our clientele, we broke up the fun just a bit, with plans geared toward younger children in the morning and slightly older kids in the afternoon.

“I don't sleep, I’ll be up at 5:30am, in the office by 7:30am, and up till 1am that morning,” said Brandi Yee of Spring2ACTion, Alexandria's annual 24-hour giving day.
