“This is a space of fashion, art, music, beauty, creativity and inclusiveness.Julia is brilliant. I've spent years looking for a stylist or the point of view in medicine. Her goal is to create hair that stands on its own. Style if you please, but not that you must. She believes her work must be beautiful on its own, and it is. She digs into your hair type, face, what you want and she pushes back with expertise that is right. Incredible.”
“I had 2 dressers, a night stand & a mirror. Some of these items were handed down from relatives in their 80s, others from my childhood. I did not want to contribute to environmental waste. These items were solid & fuctional, but not solid/perfect wood & actually brought a heavy energy to my space. Now, every time I dust, I smile extra big. I'm so grateful my personality & values are reflected in these pieces! It brightens my room & I feel sooo happy to know I kept these out of the landfill. Thank you for your excellent communication, for moving them upstairs for me-definitely worth the payment for them to deliver. I appreciate Brass Tacks & HIGHLY recommend!!Why buy new when you can make custom, functional art?In my room, they look like the colors I picked (see the grey/blue & pink/purple color in the picture)”
“The absolute best secondhand designer store in Dane County. Everyone is incredibly nice, the prices are amazing, and they sell items from luxury designers that you won’t find anywhere else in the area. One of my absolute favorite stores.”
“Visited last week looking for an adjustable height desk for my home office. I'd never been here before so I didn't know what to expect. They had a great selection of new and used options, all priced very reasonably. Customer service was fantastic too! Will definitely return for office furniture needs in the future.”
“I love the treasure hunt of bin stores. This one is no different! Great! Needs a bigger parking lot but lots of great deals here but yes, you’ll have to dig through bins and find the deals. But, it’s worth it”

410 State St, Madison“Infinite compliments on everything I’ve ever bought here!! Always the cheeriest, most helpful (HONEST) staff who know how to turn a single piece into a LOOK ? ”
“Extremely cute shop with a very curated, organized, and awesome selection of vintage clothes. Plus, and this is hard to find, I thought the prices were very reasonable given the clothing items themselves. I find many vintage places charge super expensive prices, but this was pretty reasonable. Plus, the items that were for sale were really nice, so that was cool to see. The vibe is also super fun and retro. Again, I wish I lived closer to this spot! I'd come by wayyyyy too often.”
“I do not agree with Selena's comment. I have been a customer at Style Encore for years, and they have always treated me well. I am Hispanic and I have never felt racism from the staff who works there. Even the owner, Diana, speaks Spanish with me, sometimes I even teach her new words, I think your comment can do a lot of damage to the business and personally, that business has brought me many good things 100% recommended to the entire Latin community”
“I easily found a good quality dresser for a great price that just needed a sand and paint. Customer service was great! The guy working helped me figure out if it would fit in my SUV and then helped me load it. I was lent a dolly and some moving blankets too.”
“I was blown away by the incredible selection of gently used clothing at unbeatable prices. Not only did I find stylish pieces that fit perfectly into my wardrobe, but I also scored some amazing deals that I couldn't resist. The store is well-organized, making it easy to browse through racks of trendy clothing and accessories. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to assist without being pushy. Plus, the concept of buying and selling gently used items is not only eco-friendly but also budget-friendly. Whether you're looking to refresh your wardrobe or make some extra cash by selling your gently used clothing, THIS Plato's Closet is the place to go. Highly recommended!”
“Beautiful shop with a lovely selection of well curated items. Prices go down as items remain in the store, so there are some bargains to be had. It's a wonderful place to find some unique and marvelous furnishings and decorative items for your home in addition to smaller charming takeaways.”
