Editorial Review for Blackmail – by Tom Palmer

In Short
Since opening her small shop dedicated to everyone's favorite non-color, owner Gail Chovan has carefully filled it with both vintage and new clothing. Attention to timeless glamour rules over trendiness at Blackmail. Beyond the fur-trimmed capes and beaded flapper dresses lie a meticulously selected collection of menswear, jewelry and home decor. Most decades of the past 120 years are represented; prices vary with age, quality and rarity, yet most items are within a student's reach.

I really enjoy shopping at Blackmail. I also enjoy checking our their window displays, so creative. I find great buys for men and women. I wish their hours were extended, that is the only draw back. Great place for unique finds. I've purchased many items at Blackmail.

Pros: Super Cool

Cons: Parking and traffic, hours of operation
