Charming Charlie – Cincinnati

This location is pretty consistent with other Charming Charlie locations in the area. My only critique is that they need to have more staff working during peak hours. I was in this location on a Sunday afternoon, two weeks before Christmas and there was only one person working the register while her manager restocked shelves. The line began to get longer and longer while the one cashier rang people up. That poor girl… it would’ve been nice if her manager jumped in to help not only her employee but us customers in line.

I love what Leigh said about this being a «Claire’s for grown ups.» And it’s exactly that. Filled with costume jewelry which seems to be the trend lately. A lot of it is too goddy for me, but you can find some staple pieces of you dig.
The clothing is boutique style only a few styles and sizes of each piece. Prices are exactly on point for what you are paying for: wear it once or twice for $ 20 bucks until it falls apart.
If you need a quick colorful necklace for a wedding you’ll wear once — this is your place. If you’re looking for something of quality to wear that won’t turn your wrist green skip this spot.

Good selection at decent prices. Not big into jewelry but as accessorizing is a necessary evil for me this is a good place to go. Staff is helpful as well.

Oh Charming Charlie… you’re so charming.
GREAT place for buying gifts. Everything is so FUN! This store makes you feel alive.
I went here with my mom frequently and we would buy bright colored jewelry, sunglasses, purses, and clothes.
I love that the store is color coded.
Everything is decently priced and you can always find sale items.

This is a fun accessory store, all set up for easy browsing. There are sections grouped by colors that feature jewelry, scarves, watches, handbags, and other accessories. They also carry some shoes and clothing. There is a little kids section and a clearance section in the area close to the registers. The staff here is friendly and welcoming. Fun (and tempting!) place to look around.

This store is charming indeed. I absolutely looove how they have the store section off and color coded!
Everything in this store is very trendy and very current. It’s inexpensive too, and if you catch a good sale you can go crazy! I walked around trying on hats, rings, holding up hand bags, and putting together outfits I thought my sister should buy and the girls working in the store were cool about offering suggestions or helping me find pieces that might make it pop.
This store kind of reminds you of that kitschy teenage-​y store in the mall, but Charming Charlie is definitely for adults who want to be trendy, but not covered in glitter and Hello Kitty.

Charming Charlie is a pretty nice place to get cute, cheap, color-​coordinated accessories and interesting wardrobe pieces. It’s especially good if you’re not planning to keep these accessories for years to come, as the quality is questionable. If you keep these expectations, you’ll have fun shopping here.

I absolutely LOVE this place! Very trendy and cheap! At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but as I was browsing, I noticed that they have their jewelry categorize. I walked out with earrings and some necklaces for a great price!
I haven’t had any break on my yet, but I would recommend this place, there are so many varieties and styles to choose from.

If I had written this review on Saturday right after my visit it would have definitely been 5 stars… however…I am writing this on Monday morning, after wearing a pair of earrings that I purchased on Saturday, and the earrings, may they RIP, are now broken. I went to Charming Charlie for the first time on Saturday, I found an awesome pair of earrings for only $ 6! I decided to wear them out Saturday night. Well, about an hour after having them on, I saw that one of the earrings had fallen apart and were on the floor next to me. Oh my utter shock and disappointment. I was very impressed with the layout of the store, the available itemes, everything! Except the fact that my earrings broke the same day that I purchased them. Not sure if I will go back now: o (

If you could give a store a steroid to make it awesome… this would be the place. I had a serious case of the «ooh shiney’s» and had to touch everything. This place put me under it’s spell as soon as I walked in. I felt like an addict before I’d even taken part of it’s special fashonista concoctions. The glance was like a free trial to get you hooked immediately. I mean seriously. every accessory you can imagine. Earrings. check, necklace. check…scarf…how in the world do I wear this thing? double check… I found a shirt and 3 pairs of earrings and a giant chunky gaudy, but awesome necklace for $ 16. WHAT???
To seal the deal on your addiction, they put the registers in the BACK of the store. that means that you have to walk through the whole place eyeing that amazing stuff before you’re even allowed to pay. Oh that shirt I picked up that was already marked down to $ 10. yeah. now it’s $ 5.
They had shirts, shoes and accessories in every color and I was just in awe. It’s like the adult girl version of a candy store or something. If my friend had dragged me out of there before I’d purchased anything I swear I would have thrown myself on the ground like that kid in the candy store who didn’t get her treat and screamed my face off.
Now she probably would have friend broken up with me and I would have been extremely sad, so I guess it’s a great thing I found so many great deals and didn’t make an idiot of myself or lose my friend by doing so.
If you have a hankering for some new girlie stuff, or a special night out, you MUST go here. That’s right. I said MUST! It is not an option and if I find out you had a date night that longed for a new dress and sparkly necklace but didn’t check out Charming Charlie’s. I will Unilocal break up with you. I don’t know, but I’ll figure it out! So instead of causing us both the immense pain, just check this place out. You’ll be super glad you did!

This store is completely cute. I walked in and felt like I’d was in a posh dressing room that was about to transform my look from Plain Jane to Fashionable Diva. From the fun music to the adorable lighting fixtures, it is a place that I don’t mind spending some time in.
I was expecting just a slightly larger version of Claire’s, but this place was much more than that. It is packed full of accessories– necklaces, bracelets, earrings, purses, shoes, scarves, sunglasses, even nipple covers for those tricky tops. You need it to go with an outfit? It is within these walls. There are even a number of clothing items interspersed throughout the store, so that you could theoretically build your entire outfit here.
Things are mostly grouped by color, which makes finding the accessory you’re looking for quite easy. And the prices are super reasonable so you can buy both the coordinating necklace AND bracelet! :) (Or, you know, just save money, but what fun is that??)
The only part of the store that seemed disorganized and out of place was the clearance clothing section. Items were just grouped by size and hung on roller racks shoved askew in the back corner of the store near the registers. Not appealing and not shoppable.
The next time I’m looking for that perfect inexpensive piece to complete a look, Charming Charlie will be my first stop!
