Location - 1 Horatio Street (at 8th Ave)

Darling is a boutique that lives up to its name, with window displays full of breezy dresses and an interior stocked to the ceiling with a mix of trendy pieces and vintage must-haves, you are sure to find something for every season. Piles of accessories fill every nook and make you feel you've stepped into a closet begging to play dress-up in. Hats, scarves and purses hang off mirrors, with colorful casual wear and trendy evening wear framing a table toppling with jewelry and accessories.

Great pieces for all body types can be found by Tulle, Luna, Autumn Cashmere, BB Dakota, Velvet, Kensie, Susanna Monaco, Max and Cleo, and Heartloom.  Dresses ranging from trendy minis to draping jersey can be found from $50-$300+ and tops from bohemian to tailored range from $30-$200.  In the winter months, they have a huge assortment of coats and jackets with everything from jewel-toned peacoats to fur-lined bombers ($70-$350).  Despite Darling's large stock of clothes, they out-do themselves with their abundance of accessories.  Scarves can be found piled and draped during all months of the year ($30-$150), as well as headbands, hats and purses, including rows of colorful clutches (around $80).  Jewelry in both gold and silver vintage and plastic trendy costume can be found hanging from decorative branches next to classic lingerie with feminine ruffles and lace.

The staff is friendly and energetic and happy to help fill any wardrobe hole.  Don't miss heading downstairs to the basement where there are more dressing rooms, a rack dedicated to vintage finds from the 1950s-1980s, as well as a full wall of sale items that are constantly updated and reduced.  Darling also hosts many events where pieces such as the Little Black Dress are celebrated with promotions and cocktails.
