It'll probably fold within a year. Clothing stores don't make it on Hillsborough Street. Students don't have the money for boutique clothes and the people who do have money won't come to such a seedy location.

Actually, raleighboy, Tough Love's prices are really reasonable...lots of the items are definitely within a student's budget. Some of the t-shirts Jen mentioned are around $10 I think? I'm one of the local designers and my clothing sells for between $20 and $50.
