Orient Expressed

The shop is so beautiful as is the owner. Found exactly what I wanted and shipped it home.

Been a patron for years ( 13 to be exact, as that is the age of my oldest child) even when I moved out of state for work. Recently went in with my daughters to purchase some things while we visited on vacation and Lisa greeted us. I absolutely adore the ladies in there!! Which is why I was shocked to see negative reviews! They have the most adorable children's clothing and items! My youngest daughter wanted to walk out with the entire store while my teenager was fond of the embroidered toiletry bags.. if we had space in our vehicle we would have taken one of everything!! The items are affordable compared to similar shops... but this place holds a special place in my heart.

I'm surprised by all the negative reviews. This has been the go to place for embroidered and smocked clothing for kids for generations. I haven't been by in forever because all the littles in my family had grown up.BUT! they do have more than kids clothes so if you need some towels or other things monogrammed then this is your place. I stopped in to buy something for the soon to be one great-niece! And found something very cute. Along with beaucoup Mardi Gras stuff that i was tempted by. Don't sleep on their sale rack! Great bargains can be found.Staff was helpful and friendly. Parking is on the the street.

They have beautiful kids clothing and nice accessories. Their embroidery service is great and fast. The people there are really helpful. It's a great New Orleans gem.

When I stopped by this small store at Canal Place I was pretty disappointed. They only accept cash, do not gift wrap, have a small selection, and lastly, the sales person was no help and stayed in the small room in the back.

I ordered an item and when delivered it was messed up. I called and was told they would get back with me. I waited two days and had to call them. They asked for the item to be returned but I had to pay postage. I tried to return to store twice , but they were closed when the hours indicated they should have been open. The Customer service is horrendous.
