The experience. Retail therapy is a very real thing, going into a store where you can leave everything at the door and let your mind happily and freely wander. Creativity and excitement collide and you all of a sudden have the perfect something: an outfit for your baby, a gift for your friend, decor for your home. You leave better than when you entered, and that is a positive experience I want to give our community. 12391 Kingsride Ln, Houston, shopiris.com
