Rhody Gem: Tall Tumbleweed Modern

What it is:

A brick-and-mortar shop stocked with clothing and accessories, locally made jewelry, and beauty products.

In the heart of Riverside Square, Tall Tumbleweed is housed inside the first floor of a long two-level mixed-use building. Look for the wood front door!

What makes it a Rhody Gem?

Owner Amelia Olson describes her shop “as a patchwork quilt of small treasures,” with a constant rotation of vintage and modern size-inclusive clothing. “With a magpie’s eye, we make gift buying and personal style cohesive in a warm, welcoming, and vibrant space. We think getting dressed can be a fun, radical act of political expression and self love! If you’ve ever felt like a misfit in a traditional boutique setting, you’ll feel loved and at home in our Riverside shop,” says Olson. “Getting dressed is a feeling, and we are reimagining the experience of shopping by encouraging folks to try on clothing they’ve been told wasn’t for them or their body type, profession, or lifestyle. Clients quickly become friends, and we know that when we serve the community we’re in, we all feel and look more beautiful, empowered, and liberated.”
