Occasional Shops might be the best-kept-secret in the retail world.  Started as an alternative to the traditional retail store, occasional shops are only open certain days each month, making it an “event” whenever they open their doors!  Each shop generally has its own “vibe”, but most follow a few of the same rules – the merchandise changes each month, a bunch of people are responsible for making it happen, and they try to provide as many ideas as they do affordable finds for all who visit.
