skinnyskinny is pretty darn thrilled to announce a great new addition to our blog: Store of the Week! In these weekly blogs we’ll be featuring one of the fabulous stores who carry our products. They’ll tell us all about what makes them unique and give us a taste of what life is like in their cities and neighborhoods. We hope you enjoy!
To kick things off, we didn’t stray far from home. Say hello to Allison and her beautiful store, TEICH.
TEICH is located at 84 East 7th Street in the East Village of New York City, NY 10003.
skinnyskinny: Tell us what you love about your neighborhood. What makes it special?
Allison: There are so many reasons why I love the East Village, (quirky shops, great bars, the Tompkins Square Park dog run) but my favorite is the food. We have the best pizza in the city: Stromboli for cheap slices, Veloce for Sicilian, and Motorino for a Napolitano experience that will blow your taste buds away. Craving a burger? Black Iron Burger is amazing! Vegetarian? Organic Grille or Counter. My all time favorite lunch spot, however, is Café Mogador. I eat there at least twice a week!
skinnyskinny: Tell us a little bit about your store, what makes it unique?
Allison: Everything I sell is made in NYC (or close by), including my own handbag line (also called TEICH). I carry 14 different local jewelry designers, one sunglass line, and skinnyskinny!
skinnyskinny: What are your customers like?
Allison: The diversity of my customers is unbelievable. I get tourists coming in from all over the world. It’s a great feeling to send them off with a unique NYC souvenir. I also get a lot of stylish New York women who appreciate the work of emerging designers.
skinnyskinny: What is your favorite skinnyskinny product?
Allison: I love the soaps. Each one is so delicious! People always comment on how yummy my shop smells. I’m also a big fan of the jasmine body oil.
