MAY 9, 2020 --- I miss you all! And I miss my store and although I can’t wait to get back to it in person, I just don’t feel quite ready... Can’t wait to have you back in the shop, but in the mean time, have you shopped our website?! $5 shipping, on island delivery and in addition to being able to shop by size and item type you can even look through collections like “Summer 2020” and “Lilly Pulitzer”.

MARCH 16, 2020 --- For the safety of our customers, consignors, and our community, Wish will be closed at 80 Thames Street, but will remain open online. Although we don't usually have groups of 10 or more etc in the shop, my primary concern at this time is to be a responsible member of our Newport community and help to flatten the curve. Hope you are too!
Now, on a lighter note I'll be posting new spring inventory on instagram and for sale right here on our website! FREE and SLOW shipping continues along with the option for Post-Corona Pick Up. We've also added Free Local Delivery (once per week contactless delivery if you live on Aquidneck Island).
Gift Cards are for sale as always.
We ask that you keep our small local business in mind along with all your other favorite small and local restaurants, beauty specialists, and retailers. Hopefully we can all make it out of this thing in business and ready to serve you when the time comes!
Stay in touch via Instagram and Facebook,
Hope to see you soon, I miss you all already!
