Bye bye Baby...Baby, bye bye...Kids Clothes 50% Off Through Sunday

LAST CALL. After a very fun year, we have decided to discontinue the kids department here at Revival. All of our kids clothes are 50% off the original price. The sale is through Sunday February 12th and then all items will be gone!

The customers are adorable and we will always have a special place in our heart for tiny hats shaped like cupcakes.

So bye bye baby...hello SALE section!

Revival February Fun-A-Day:Day 1!!!

The Feb. blahs got you down? This month is a cold in-between month, whose weird 28 day structure simply means there are two fewer days to make rent. Spring can seem no where in sight. The low temps, then the high temps, then the snow, then the slush and mud....

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!

Well, screw that, we refused to remain cold and bummed. Based on this neat-o event in New York my friend introduced me to. (Click HERE for more details), each day we are going to post something that makes us smile.

Day One!

This AMAZING 'Put A Bird On It' Vintage Tote($18)! Great condition and what we would call 'A very special tote bag.' Smile! Hopefully, your face will freeze that way.
