Art Effect

Frommer's Review

Classifying this wonderfully eclectic Armitage Avenue shop is no easy task (the owners refer to it as a "modern day general store"). It's got everything from aromatherapy oils and kitchen mixing bowls designed by cookbook author Nigella Lawson to handcrafted jewelry and gag gifts, not to mention a whole room devoted to hippie-chic women's clothing. The merchandise has a definite female slant, with a vibe that's young and irreverent rather than fussy, but the laid-back, friendly sales staff makes everyone feel welcome. The wide, unpredictable selection makes this one of my favorite browsing spots in town.
