Haven: Sanctuary of Style

I have been shopping at Haven for several years now, and consistently, the personalized service and amazing selection of clothing and accessories have surpassed my expectations. Claudia Fowler and her staff are always cheerful, upbeat, and really have an amazing sense of style. What's so great about Haven is that the clothing there is very unique. It is not typical or run-of-the-mill. Each piece of clothing or accessory is very individualistic, so your own distinct personality can shine through with what you choose. I will shop at Haven for myself and my daughters for as long as they will have me! more

not only is this a second rate H. Audrey, but the owner seems to be averse to serving the ""common"" people of Nashville. I find the attitude in this store a bit on the arrogant side and the fashion to be random and chaotic at best. I would recommend shops with a more customer friendly shopping atmosphere and a better gauge on current fashion like H. Audrey, Habit, and Perfect Pair. Pros: across the street from Iron Gate Cons: last season more

If you love Lucky brand and Free people - you must visit!!!! This is not the Lucky brand stuff you see in their mall stores - much more original!!!! Very cute, Soho, Boho, yeah. Skip the mall and internet and go!!! Pros: Very friendly and helpful - never pushy or fussy more

You'll feel like you are in SoHo when you enter this amazing store in downtown Franklin. It is filled with treasures for your wardrobe and home. I love the new candles, and they always have jewelry pieces I've never seen anywhere. All my good stuff comes from here. When I wear a Haven piece, especially my crown earrings and military pants, I get constant comments. ""Where did you get that ... "" - I send everyone I know to Haven. You won't be disappointed. The staff is fabulous, helpful but never pushy. Haven is my favorite place to shop for one-of-a-kind gifts. All my friends want something wrapped in that cool burlap bag! Pros: Beautiful, one of a kind pieces for home and wardrobe Cons: don't go if you don't plan to buy more

The store owner/stylist, Claudia Fowler has such a unique, organic style that radiates in the store's etheral atmosphere! Fowler hired a set director to design the store, so I would say go just to see the beautiful deer antler and moss chandelier. She has found some really great lines that I can't find anywhere else in Nashville. I left with this amazing leather trumpet-sleeve jacket by Mike&Chris. The store also has funky dishes from D.L. and Company, beautiful candles from Modern Alchemy and gorgeous Cole Bastide glassware. I love this store! Pros: ambience, service and unique merchandise Cons: you will always find something you HAVE to have! more

I just went to downtown Franklin and was very pleasantly surprised when I walked into Haven! They have all different lines and some of the best pieces I've ever seen! The atmosphere is very welcoming and comfortable, and great music!! Don't pass it by!! Pros: Unique clothing Cons: There aren't more of these stores! more

Hands down the best high-fashion finds in Nashville! They also have an amazing funky jewelry collection. I felt like I was in a boutique in New York, but without the rude attitudes. Everyone needs to check it out! It was also great shopping for clothes with the owner, who also happens to be a professional stylist. She helped me put together an outfit for a first date. I knew when I left the store that I would look great that evening! Pros: amazing selection and great service! Cons: I live in Nashville so driving to Franklin was far, but definitely worth it! more

Such a breath of fresh air to come to the Franklin square! With clothing by hip designers usually found in NYC or LA, fantastic gifts and friendly, professional service, Haven is one of those rare boutiques that combines big city chic with small town appeal. Owner Claudia Fowler's taste is always impeccable and you are sure to find something that catches your eye. You will find items for all budgets, guaranteed to be unique and stylish. Please stop by and check it out...you will not be disappointed! more
