Locally-based Internet shops upgrading to brick-and-mortar digs just might be the next big fashion trend.
Last year we saw e-Bay favorite Meat Market Vintage open shop on Mill Avenue. Now, Etsy stores Ouma and Mignonne Handmade have opened Cleo & Clementine in the space next to Melrose Pharmacy that was formerly occupied by Blueberry Deluxe — another boutique that went from online to IRL, but ended up back in the digi realm.

With Ouma owner Monique Martinez-Sandoval and Jennifer Wood of Mignonne Handmade at the helm, the boutique (which houses the designers’ studio space in the back) will fill the Valley’s very-empty indie bridal void with handcrafted dresses starting around $100, headpieces from $22, and ethereal accessories.
When news happens, Phoenix New Times is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
Not only are nuptials-preppers catered to, but Cleo & Clementine also carries party dresses, casual accessories, including fun stuff from Leah Goren, and everyday jewelry.
