Somethings are just better in person and Jezebels is one of them (Disney as well and yes it definitely compares). We might be avid online shoppers but at times finding the perfect brick and mortar store is a better way to go! We are huge fans of small businesses and want to showcase one that we personally love! You might recall seeing the name in some outfit details and get annoyed because you can't find it online, it's because it's a gem in Central Florida! Jezebels is an amazing vintage inspired and rockabilly/pinup store where you can find things from large brands like stop staring to smaller local people! One of the things that makes this place stand out from any other is the atmosphere, when you walk in you are immediately engulfed into a dream place filled with beautiful clothing! Even the dressing rooms are themed! Jezebels is tucked away in Historic Downtown Ocala, Florida. It is nestled on a corner of the main downtown area commonly referred to as the "square". Jezebels is a local family owned and operated boutique that is a delight in an otherwise plain town!

Prepare to be amazed
Now what Jezebels lacks in accessibility it makes up for in its AMAZING selection of things to choose from. There's something for everyone here and we are not exaggerating. What first caught our eye about Jezebels was that it appealed to our pinup/retro loving sleeves. The display windows are adorned with the most adorable outfits and accessories. It became our little safe haven, the ONE store in Ocala that didn't only carry brands we liked but fit the look as well. Jezebels is definitely a breath of fresh air among the normal, mundane stores in this small town. It offers a fun selection of clothes, accessories, petticoats, bathing suits, bags, shoes, gift ideas and even house hold decor. You can spend hours browsing this quaint little store because it packs quite the punch with its wide array of items to choose from. (We still haven't tried on everything or explored every display section and we live here haha). When we say theres something for everyone we aren't joking, we tried on a few different array of outfits from various brands and styles to show how incredible the selection really is. For our fellow pin up dressing gals or lovers of fun prints they carry some well known brands like Voodoo Vixen, Tatyana, Alice Moon, Heart of Haute, Retrolicious, and Hell Bunny just to name a few. Now if you don't believe us, we'll just have to show you! Keep scrolling to see the magic that is Jezebels!

We hope you enjoyed this installment of Retro(near) Orlando, it has been awhile since we've done one of these because truth be told there aren't many stores around here that get our style quite like Jezebels. It's definitely the pearl of the sea here and we hope that if you're nearby or in the area you'll go check it out. Jezebels may not have online access but it makes up for that with its adorable store front, packed with so many different options you could spend all day there and not see the same thing twice. You know that saying the best things come in small packages? Well that's certainly true about Jezebels (and lil ol Paola, but you already knew that right?). They are having quite the sale currently so we HIGHLY recommend you go take a look inside, you never know what you'll find! If you've got an area you'd like us to visit or any comments, questions or concerns feel free to comment below and as always we'll reply as soon as we can !
As always thanks for reading, may your days be filled with pretty dresses, dapper clothes & alot of happiness.
Paola & Kirsten xx
