Judging by the storefront, you might think brightly colored Tano handbags make up the bulk of what Loom has to offer, but a few steps inside reveal an eclectic collection of gifts for anyone on your list like Kobo candles, Panier des Sens lotions, and Gianna Rose Atelier soaps. Toward the back of the store, hipfant accessories like Built NY totes and modern dolls by Pretty Ugly and Zid Zid pile together in a colorful clutter. A perfunctory selection of jewelry and watches appears at the cashier counter, where shoppers can also indulge their impulses on smaller buys like letterpress note cards by Snow & Graham. — Terry Selucky
