“It’s ok to {heart} Houston” -boasts a best selling t-shirt that sits proudly on display at Hello-Lucky, a fun boutique located in Houston’s trendy Heights historic district. The boutique opened its doors back in January 2008 by Teresa O’Connor. O’Connor is a designer who not only sells her wares, but also embodies her Earthy aesthetic into her shop as well. “My goods are made from reclaimed fabrics, reclaimed leather, vintage finds, raw brass, mixed metals and American made t-shirt blanks. All my t-shirts are printed with water base ink by moi. I hand print cards and print on reclaimed western shirts, jackets etc.,” she explained. She is also a firm believer in showcasing brands that are American made, locally handmade and Fair Trade. She offers amazing and creative products from about twenty-five brands,including: Lisa Chow, Rene Cruz, Teresa O’Connor (Hello-Lucky), Melissa Bauman, Joann Park, Freddie Barrett, Anita Hassan, Rogelio Rendon Material, Elaine Bradford, Melissa Juvan, Martha Hernandez, Frances Trotter, Carole F Smith (aka McCheeks Mayhem), Tupelo Grease Co., Christine West, Chris Mahler, Angie’s Sweatshop, Monique Weston, Stephanie DeLeonardis, Ames Bros., US Rags, Vinca, Feto Soap, Monica Pope’s Text Tees.

I enjoyed my time peeking at all the treasures that are being sold at the shop and Teresa was very friendly and helpful. I loved the Monica Pope tees, as well as the wooden jewelry by Vinca, the “Lucky” necklace made from recycled license plates by Teresa O’Connor, jewelry created with antique found objects by Monique Weston and Stephanie DeLeonardis, cute little rings with vintage doll-size tea sets on them and some of the vintage knick-knacks that are lying around. Prices vary, from a $2 button to a $1,200 painting…but there’s something for any budget. Definitely stay in the loop on in-store trunk shows and other events via their Facebook page.
