In the charming Bridge Road district of South Hills in Charleston, Eggplant sits unassumingly in a small, quiet plaza. But inside, a world of color and whimsy await.When you step into Eggplant, you’ll be struck by the vast collection of Vera Bradley—one of the largest assortments of the popular brand in the state. Perhaps even more surprising are the other delightful product displays throughout the store, filling every nook and cranny. The front of the store is elegantly decorated with silver Mariposa serving pieces and crystal stemware on tables draped with bright linens. A repurposed dresser shows off dinnerware on top while its open drawers tease shoppers with fun, embellished napkins that peek out. The latest trends in jewelry and accessories, displays of bangle bracelets, Smathers & Branson needlepoint goods, and scarves call for your attention, while the children’s section—stocked with adorable clothing, toys, and décor—beckons kids with a six-foot, smiling giraffe.Eggplant’s impressive array of products and services grows each year, and it’s no wonder the shop is a favorite for area brides-to-be.
