CLTCH Charlotte
On a block dominated by antique and thrift stores, CLTCH diversifies Plaza Midwood’s retail offerings with a slick new shop on Central Avenue. The boutique, owned by Lesa Kastanas of Soul Gastrolounge and The Diamond, personal stylist Linda Martinez and makeup artist Scott Weaver, features a curated collection of unique accessories and one-of-a-kind collaborations with local labels.

The name, clutch, is described as “exactly what you need when you need it.”

The store is filled with men’s and women’s jewelry, bags, books, accessories and other “collectible objects of desire” and also serves as a gallery for displaying and selling pieces from local and national artists.
Price points are approachable (think $10 earrings and $30 bracelets) but higher end custom pieces are also available. Co-owner Scott Weaver has provided artistic and creative direction for collaborations with different makers and showed off some custom cufflinks and a custom leather wallet he designed.
In addition to the main shop, there’s a fitting room and lounge in the back for Linda’s personal styling consultations as well as pro vanity lighting for Scott’s makeup clients.
The store is located at 1512-A Central Avenue and is open Fri & Sat 12-9p, Sun 12-5p and Mon-Thurs 12-7p.
