Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies	'
	Note 1 — Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
	Kirkland’s, Inc. (the “Company”) is a specialty retailer of home décor and gifts in the United States with 324 stores in 35 states as of February 1, 2014. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Kirkland’s, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Kirkland’s Stores, Inc., Kirkland’s DC, Inc., Kirkland’s Texas, LLC, and Kirklands.com, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
	The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
	Changes in estimates are recognized in the period when new information becomes available to management. Areas where the nature of the estimate makes it reasonably possible that actual results could materially differ from amounts estimated include, but are not limited to impairment assessments on long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, inventory reserves, self-insurance reserves, income tax liabilities, stock-based compensation, employee bonus accruals, gift card breakage, customer loyalty program accruals and contingent liabilities.
	Fiscal year — The Company’s fiscal year is comprised of the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Accordingly, fiscal 2013 represented the 52 weeks ended on February 1, 2014, fiscal 2012 represented the 53 weeks ended on February 2, 2013, and fiscal 2011 represented the 52 weeks ended on January 28, 2012.
	Cash equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit in banks and investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase.
	Cost of sales and inventory valuation — Cost of sales includes costs of product purchased from vendors, including inbound freight, receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, outbound freight, inventory damage and shrinkage, discounts associated with customer loyalty programs, payroll and overhead associated with our distribution facility and its network and store occupancy costs. The Company’s inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, net of reserves and allowances, with cost determined using the average cost method with average cost approximating current cost. The Company estimates the amount of shrinkage that has occurred through theft or damage and adjusts that amount to actual at the time of its physical inventory counts which occur throughout the fiscal year. The Company also evaluates the cost of inventory by category and class of merchandise in relation to the estimated sales price. This evaluation is performed to ensure that inventory is not carried at a value in excess of the amount expected to be realized upon the sale of the merchandise.
	Vendor allowances — The Company receives various payments and allowances from vendors, including rebates and other credits. The amounts received are subject to the terms of vendor agreements, which generally do not state an expiration date, but are subject to ongoing negotiations that may be impacted in the future based on changes in market conditions and changes in the profitability, quality, or sell-through of the related merchandise. For all such vendor allowances, the Company records the vendor funds as a reduction of inventories. As the related inventory is sold, such allowances and credits are recognized as a reduction to cost of sales.
	Property and equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the expected lease term, typically ranging from five to 10 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, and improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses on the disposition of fixed assets are recorded upon disposal of the related asset.
	Cost of internal use software — The Company capitalizes the cost of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Capitalized computer software costs consist primarily of payroll-related and consulting costs incurred during the application development stage. The Company expenses costs related to preliminary project assessments, research and development, re-engineering, training and application maintenance as they are incurred. Capitalized software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated life of three to 10 years upon being placed in service. For fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded approximately $3.0 million, $1.6 million, and $623,000, respectively, for amortization of capitalized software. The net book value of these assets totaled $18.8 million and $18.5 million at the end of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. At the end of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, property and equipment included capitalized computer software currently under development of $1.9 million and $314,000, respectively.
	Asset retirement obligations — The Company recognizes a liability for the fair value of required asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) when such obligations are incurred. The Company’s AROs are primarily associated with leasehold improvements which, at the end of a lease, the Company is contractually obligated to remove in order to comply with the lease agreement. At the inception of a lease with such conditions, the Company records an ARO liability and a corresponding capital asset in an amount equal to the estimated fair value of the obligation. The liability is estimated based on various assumptions requiring management’s judgment and is accreted to its projected future value over time. The capitalized asset is depreciated using the convention for depreciation of leasehold improvement assets. Upon satisfaction of the ARO conditions, any difference between the recorded ARO liability and the actual retirement costs incurred is recognized as an operating gain or loss in the consolidated statements of income. As of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, the liability for asset retirement obligations was approximately $253,000 and $241,000, respectively.
	Impairment of long-lived assets — The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances dictate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. This review includes the evaluation of individual underperforming retail stores and assessing the recoverability of the carrying value of the assets related to the store. Future cash flows are projected for the remaining lease life. The Company calculates the fair value of long-lived assets using the age-life method. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the difference, if any, between the assets’ fair value and carrying value.
	Insurance reserves — Workers’ compensation, general liability and employee medical insurance programs are predominately self-insured. It is the Company’s policy to record a self-insurance liability using estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported or paid, based on historical claims experience and actuarial methods. Actual results can vary from estimates for many reasons, including, among others, inflation rates, claim settlement patterns, litigation trends and legal interpretations. The Company monitors its claims experience in light of these factors and revises its estimates of insurance reserves accordingly. The level of insurance reserves may increase or decrease as a result of these changing circumstances or trends.
	During the fourth quarters of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded adjustments related to positive changes in its actuarial estimates for workers’ compensation and general liability reserves. The adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 resulted in a year-over-year benefit of approximately $150,000 ($91,000 after tax) or $0.01 per diluted share. The adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 resulted in a year-over-year benefit of approximately $900,000 ($578,000 after tax), or $0.03 per diluted share.
	Customer loyalty program — The Company has established a loyalty program called the K Club, whereby members earn loyalty points in return for making purchases in the Company’s stores, including the e-commerce store. Attaining specified loyalty point levels results in the issuance of discount certificates to the customer. The Company accrues for the expected liability associated with the discount certificates issued, as well as the accumulated points that have not yet resulted in the issuance of a certificate, adjusted for expected redemption rates. This liability is included as a component of accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet and the changes to the liability are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of income.
	The Company has also established a private-label credit card program for its customers. Customers in the private-label credit card program who enroll in K Club are eligible to earn double the points of a regular loyalty program member. The card program is operated and managed by a third-party bank that assumes all credit risk with no recourse to the Company. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company terminated the relationship with a previous third-party bank private-label credit card service provider. As a result of this termination, the Company reversed the remaining $1.2 million accrual related to the previous loyalty program. This reversal was recorded as a credit to cost of sales. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company switched to a new private-label credit card provider.
	Deferred rent — Many of the Company’s operating leases contain predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals during the initial term. Additionally, the Company does not typically pay rent during the construction period for new stores. For these leases, the Company recognizes the related rental expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease commencing with the date of initial access to the leased space, and records the difference between amounts charged to operations and amounts paid as a liability. The cumulative net excess of recorded rent expense over lease payments totaled $9.8 million, of which $1.2 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses, and $8.6 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet as of February 1, 2014. As of February 2, 2013, $985,000 was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $8.2 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet.
	The Company also receives incentives from landlords in the form of construction allowances. These construction allowances are recorded as deferred rent and amortized as a reduction to rent expense over the lease term. As of February 1, 2014, the unamortized amount of construction allowances totaled $36.5 million, of which $6.2 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $30.3 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet. As of February 2, 2013, $5.7 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $31.1 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet.
	Revenue recognition — The Company recognizes revenue at the time of sale of merchandise to customers in its stores. e-commerce revenue is recorded when orders are shipped and title passes to customers. Net sales include the sale of merchandise, net of returns and exclusive of sales taxes.
	Gift card sales are recognized as revenue when tendered for payment. While the Company honors all gift cards presented for payment, the Company determines the likelihood of redemption to be remote for certain gift card balances due to long periods of inactivity. The Company uses the Redemption Recognition Method to account for breakage for unused gift card amounts where breakage is recognized as gift cards are redeemed for the purchase of goods based upon a historical breakage rate. In these circumstances, to the extent the Company determines there is no requirement for remitting card balances to government agencies under unclaimed property laws, such amounts are recognized in the consolidated statement of income as breakage revenue. The Company recognized approximately $1.1 million, $970,000, and $1.1 million in gift card breakage during fiscal 2013, fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively.
	Compensation and benefits — Compensation and benefits includes all store and corporate office salaries and wages and incentive pay as well as stock compensation, employee health benefits, 401(k) plan benefits, deferred compensation benefits, social security and unemployment taxes.
	Stock-based compensation — Stock-based compensation includes expenses associated with stock option grants, restricted stock grants, and other transactions under the Company’s stock plans. The Company recognizes compensation expense for its stock-based payments based on the fair value of the awards. The expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the vesting period within compensation and benefits in the consolidated statements of income. See “Note 7 — Employee Benefit Plans” for further discussion.
	Other operating expenses — Other operating expenses consist of such items as insurance, advertising, utilities, property taxes, supplies, travel, card processing and other bank fees, losses on disposal of assets and various other store and corporate expenses.
	Store preopening expenses — Store preopening expenses, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are expensed as incurred.
	Advertising expenses — Advertising costs are expensed in the period in which the related activity first takes place. These expenses include costs associated with specific marketing campaigns, e-mail communications, paid search and other digital advertising, social media, public relations, in-store collateral and signage, and other expenses related to the in-store experience. Total advertising expense was $9.3 million, $6.7 million and $4.9 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	Income taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between the financial statement and the tax law treatment of certain items. Realization of certain components of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the occurrence of future events. The Company records valuation allowances to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount it believes is more likely than not to be realized. These valuation allowances can be impacted by changes in tax laws, changes to statutory tax rates, and future taxable income levels and are based on the Company’s judgment, estimates, and assumptions regarding those future events. In the event the Company were to determine that it would not be able to realize all or a portion of the net deferred tax assets in the future, the Company would increase the valuation allowance through a charge to income tax expense in the period that such determination is made. Conversely, if the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future, in excess of the net carrying amounts, the Company would decrease the recorded valuation allowance through a decrease to income tax expense in the period that such determination is made.
	The Company provides for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties, if any, based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. To the extent the Company prevails in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, the Company’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected.
	The Company’s income tax returns are subject to audit by local, state and federal authorities; and, the Company is typically engaged in various tax examinations at any given time. Tax contingencies often arise due to uncertainty or differing interpretations of the application of tax rules throughout the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The contingencies are influenced by items such as tax audits, changes in tax laws, litigation, appeals and experience with previous similar tax positions. The Company regularly reviews its tax reserves for these items and assesses the adequacy of the amount recorded. The Company evaluates potential exposures associated with its various tax filings by estimating a liability for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step requires estimation and measurement of the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be recognized upon settlement.
	Sales and use taxes — Governmental authorities assess sales and use taxes on the sale and purchase of goods and services. The Company excludes taxes collected from customers in its reported sales results. Such amounts are reflected as accrued expenses until remitted to the taxing authorities.
	Concentrations of risk — Most of the Company’s merchandise is purchased through vendors in the United States who import the merchandise manufactured primarily in China. However, the Company believes alternative merchandise sources could be procured over a relatively short period of time.
	Fair value of financial instruments — The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.
	Earnings per share — Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period presented, which excludes non-vested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of stock equivalents outstanding during the applicable periods using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options to purchase stock were exercised into common stock and if outstanding grants of restricted stock were vested. Stock options that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would have been antidilutive, were approximately 439,000 shares, 642,000 shares and 288,000 shares for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	Comprehensive income — Comprehensive income does not differ from the consolidated net income presented in the consolidated statements of income.
	Operating segments — The Company has determined that each of its stores is an operating segment. The operating performance of all stores has been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s operating segments are aggregated for financial reporting purposes because they are similar in each of the following areas: economic characteristics, class of consumer, nature of products and distribution methods. Revenues from external customers are derived from merchandise sales, and the Company does not rely on any major customers as a source of revenue. Across its store base, the Company operates one store format under the Kirkland’s name in which each store offers the same general mix of merchandise with similar categories and similar customers. The Company believes that disaggregating its operating segments would not provide meaningful additional information.
	Reclassifications — Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year classification. The Company has separately stated the state income taxes receivable and federal income taxes payable in the consolidated balance sheets. State income taxes receivable of $446,000 and $832,000 for fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively are included as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Senior Credit Facility	'
	Note 5 — Senior Credit Facility
	On August 19, 2011, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders named therein (the “Lenders”), replacing the Credit Agreement entered into in 2004. The Credit Agreement increased the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility from $45 million to $50 million and extended the maturity date to August 2016. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 175 to 225 basis points with no LIBOR floor. Additionally, a fee of 0.375% per annum is assessed on the unused portion of the facility.
	Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, borrowings are subject to certain conditions and contain customary events of default, including, without limitation, failure to make payments, a cross-default to certain other debt, breaches of covenants, breaches of representations and warranties, a change in control, certain monetary judgments and bankruptcy and ERISA events. Upon any such event of default, the principal amount of any unpaid loans and all other obligations under the Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. The maximum availability under the facility is limited by a borrowing base formula which consists of a percentage of eligible inventory and eligible credit card receivables, less reserves.
	Also on August 19, 2011, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Security Agreement with its Lenders. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company pledged and granted to the administrative agent, for the benefit of itself and the secured parties specified therein, a lien on and security interest in all of the rights, title and interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets to secure the payment and performance of the obligations under the Credit Agreement.
	As of February 1, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the facility and there were no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility, with approximately $32.5 million available for borrowing.

Employee Benefit Plans	'
	Note 7 — Employee Benefit Plans
	Stock-based compensation — Stock-based compensation includes stock option grants, restricted stock unit grants, and other transactions under the Company’s equity plans. Total stock-based compensation expense (a component of compensation and benefits) was approximately $2.8 million, $2.7 million and $3.1 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	On June 4, 2013, the Company adopted the Kirkland’s, Inc. Amended and Restated 2002 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”), replacing the plan adopted in July 2002. The 2002 Plan provides for the award of restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and stock appreciation rights with respect to shares of common stock to employees, directors, consultants and other individuals who perform services for the Company. The 2002 Plan is authorized to provide awards for up to a maximum of 3,500,000 shares of common stock. Options issued to employees under the 2002 Plan have maximum contractual terms of 10 years and generally vest ratably over 3 or 4 years. Restricted stock units granted to employees vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, and are convertible into common stock on the date of vesting. Options issued to non-employee directors vest immediately on the date of the grant. Restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors vest on the first anniversary of the grant date.
	As of February 1, 2014, options to purchase 1,285,792 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 2002 Plan at exercise prices ranging from $2.03 to $19.06 per share. As of February 1, 2014, there were 236,000 RSUs outstanding under the 2002 Plan with fair value grant prices ranging from $10.93 to $15.79 per share. Shares reserved for future stock-based grants under the 2002 Plan approximated 1,249,336 at February 1, 2014.
	Stock options — The Company allows for the settlement of vested stock options on a net share basis (“net settled stock options”), instead of settlement with a cash payment (“cash settled stock options”), if so desired by the holder. With net settled stock options, the employee does not surrender any cash or shares upon exercise. Rather, the Company withholds the number of shares to cover the option exercise price and the minimum statutory tax withholding obligations from the shares that would otherwise be issued upon exercise. The settlement of vested stock options on a net share basis results in fewer shares issued by the Company.
	As of February 1, 2014, there were 1,070,321 outstanding in-the-money options. The aggregate intrinsic value of in-the-money options outstanding and options exercisable as of February 1, 2014 was approximately $9.1 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during fiscal 2013, fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 were $9.51, $5.79 and $7.54, respectively. The intrinsic value of options exercised was $2.6 million in fiscal 2013, $0.4 million in fiscal 2012, and $1.3 million in fiscal 2011. At February 1, 2014, unrecognized stock compensation expense related to the unvested portion of outstanding stock options was approximately $2.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.
	Stock option activity for the year ended February 1, 2014, was as follows:
		Number of			Weighted			Weighted Average
		Options			Average			Remaining Contractual
					Exercise Price			Term (in years)
	Balance at February 2, 2013		1,417,906		$	11.07
	Options granted		200,000			15.79
	Options exercised		(317,114	)		11.08
	Options forfeited		(15,000	)		13.43
	Balance at February 1, 2014		1,285,792		$	11.77			6.3
	Options Exercisable As of:
	February 1, 2014		890,802		$	10.71			5.4
	The fair value of each option is recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period. The Company has estimated the fair value of all stock option awards as of the date of the grant by applying the Black-Scholes multiple-option pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly subjective in the determination of compensation expense. The weighted average for key assumptions used in determining the fair value of options granted in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 and a summary of the methodology applied to develop each assumption are as follows:
		52 Weeks Ended			53 Weeks Ended			52 Weeks Ended
		February 1,			February 2,			January 28,
		2014			2013			2012
	Expected price volatility		0.65			0.56			0.65
	Risk-free interest rate		1.46	%		0.77	%		2.1	%
	Expected life		6.3 years			6.3 years			6.3 years
	Forfeiture rate		5	%		5	%		5	%
	Dividend yield		0	%		0	%		0	%
	Expected price volatility — The expected price volatility is a measure of the amount by which the stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The Company uses actual historical changes in the market value of its stock to calculate the volatility assumption as it is management’s belief that this is the best indicator of future volatility. The Company calculates daily market value changes to the date of grant over a period beginning one year following the Company’s initial public offering date. An increase in the expected volatility will increase compensation expense.
	Risk-free interest rate — The risk-free interest rate is the U.S. Treasury rate for the week of the grant having a term equal to the expected life of the option. An increase in the risk-free interest rate will increase compensation expense.
	Expected life — The expected life is the period of time over which the options granted are expected to remain outstanding. The Company uses the “simplified” method found in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 to estimate the expected life of stock option grants. Options granted have a maximum term of ten years. An increase in the expected life will increase compensation expense.
	Forfeiture rate — The forfeiture rate is the estimated percentage of options granted that are expected to be forfeited or canceled before becoming fully vested. This estimate is based on historical experience of similar grants. An increase in the forfeiture rate will decrease compensation expense. The Company’s forfeiture estimate has a minimal effect on expense as the majority of the Company’s stock option awards vest quarterly.
	Dividend yield — The Company has not paid a dividend on its common stock for each of the last three fiscal years. The addition or increase of a dividend will decrease compensation expense.
	Restricted stock units — The Company periodically grants restricted stock units for a fixed number of shares to various employees and directors. The RSUs granted to directors become 100% vested on the first anniversary of the grant date. The RSUs granted to employees become 100% vested on the third anniversary of the grant date, provided the employee has remained in continuous service with the Company through that date. The fair value of the RSUs is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The Company granted 104,000, 94,000 and 89,000 RSUs during fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair values of the RSUs granted during fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $15.79, $10.93 and $12.33, respectively. Compensation expense related to RSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for RSUs during fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $1.3 million, $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. As of February 1, 2014, there was approximately $1.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to RSUs which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
	RSU activity in each of the periods indicated was as follows:
		Shares			Weighted Average
					Grant Date
					Fair Value
	Non-vested at February 2, 2013		247,000		$	14.22
	Granted		104,000			15.79
	Vested		(111,000	)		17.3
	Forfeited		(4,000	)		15.7
	Non-vested at February 1, 2014		236,000		$	13.44
	Employee stock purchase plan — In July 2002, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). Under the ESPP, full-time employees who have completed twelve consecutive months of service are allowed to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations, through payroll deduction, at 85% of the fair market value. The Company’s ESPP is authorized to issue up to 500,000 shares of common stock. During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, there were 19,478, 30,545 and 29,204 shares of common stock, respectively, issued to participants under the ESPP, with approximately 51,654 shares remaining under the original authorization.
	401(k) savings plan — The Company maintains a defined contribution 401(k) employee benefit plan, which covers all employees meeting certain age and service requirements. Up to 6% of the employee’s compensation may be matched at the Company’s discretion, subject to statutory limitations. For all fiscal years presented, this discretionary percentage was 50% of an employee’s contribution subject to Plan maximums. The Company’s matching contributions were approximately $383,000, $446,000 and $402,000 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company has the option to make additional contributions to the Plan on behalf of covered employees; however, no such contributions were made in fiscal 2013, 2012, or 2011.
	Deferred compensation plan — Effective March 1, 2005, the Company adopted The Executive Non-Qualified Excess Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). The Deferred Compensation Plan is available for certain employees whose benefits under the 401(k) Savings Plan are limited due to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s matching contributions to this Plan were approximately $62,000, $65,000 and $60,000 in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

	In July 2009, the Company entered into a Vendor Agreement with a related party vendor to purchase merchandise inventory. The vendor is considered a related party because its principal owner is the spouse of the Company’s Vice President of Merchandising. During fiscal 2013, the Company’s purchases from this vendor totaled approximately $29.7 million, or 13.7% of total merchandise purchases. During fiscal 2012, the Company’s purchases from this vendor totaled approximately $28.1 million, or 12.7% of total merchandise purchases. During fiscal 2011, the Company’s purchases from this vendor totaled approximately $25.1 million, or 12.0% of total merchandise purchases. Included in cost of sales for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 were $29.1 million, $26.7 million, and $22.5 million, respectively related to this vendor. Payable amounts outstanding to this vendor were approximately $1.8 million as of February 1, 2014, $2.2 million as of February 2, 2013, and $1.9 million as of January 28, 2012.

Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 01, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Fiscal Year	'
	Fiscal year — The Company’s fiscal year is comprised of the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Accordingly, fiscal 2013 represented the 52 weeks ended on February 1, 2014, fiscal 2012 represented the 53 weeks ended on February 2, 2013, and fiscal 2011 represented the 52 weeks ended on January 28, 2012.
Cash Equivalents	'
	Cash equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit in banks and investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase.
Cost of Sales and Inventory Valuation	'
	Cost of sales and inventory valuation — Cost of sales includes costs of product purchased from vendors, including inbound freight, receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, outbound freight, inventory damage and shrinkage, discounts associated with customer loyalty programs, payroll and overhead associated with our distribution facility and its network and store occupancy costs. The Company’s inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, net of reserves and allowances, with cost determined using the average cost method with average cost approximating current cost. The Company estimates the amount of shrinkage that has occurred through theft or damage and adjusts that amount to actual at the time of its physical inventory counts which occur throughout the fiscal year. The Company also evaluates the cost of inventory by category and class of merchandise in relation to the estimated sales price. This evaluation is performed to ensure that inventory is not carried at a value in excess of the amount expected to be realized upon the sale of the merchandise.
Vendor Allowances	'
	Vendor allowances — The Company receives various payments and allowances from vendors, including rebates and other credits. The amounts received are subject to the terms of vendor agreements, which generally do not state an expiration date, but are subject to ongoing negotiations that may be impacted in the future based on changes in market conditions and changes in the profitability, quality, or sell-through of the related merchandise. For all such vendor allowances, the Company records the vendor funds as a reduction of inventories. As the related inventory is sold, such allowances and credits are recognized as a reduction to cost of sales.
Property and Equipment	'
	Property and equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the expected lease term, typically ranging from five to 10 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, and improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses on the disposition of fixed assets are recorded upon disposal of the related asset.
Cost of Internal Use Software	'
	Cost of internal use software — The Company capitalizes the cost of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Capitalized computer software costs consist primarily of payroll-related and consulting costs incurred during the application development stage. The Company expenses costs related to preliminary project assessments, research and development, re-engineering, training and application maintenance as they are incurred. Capitalized software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated life of three to 10 years upon being placed in service. For fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded approximately $3.0 million, $1.6 million, and $623,000, respectively, for amortization of capitalized software. The net book value of these assets totaled $18.8 million and $18.5 million at the end of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. At the end of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, property and equipment included capitalized computer software currently under development of $1.9 million and $314,000, respectively.
Asset Retirement Obligations	'
	Asset retirement obligations — The Company recognizes a liability for the fair value of required asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) when such obligations are incurred. The Company’s AROs are primarily associated with leasehold improvements which, at the end of a lease, the Company is contractually obligated to remove in order to comply with the lease agreement. At the inception of a lease with such conditions, the Company records an ARO liability and a corresponding capital asset in an amount equal to the estimated fair value of the obligation. The liability is estimated based on various assumptions requiring management’s judgment and is accreted to its projected future value over time. The capitalized asset is depreciated using the convention for depreciation of leasehold improvement assets. Upon satisfaction of the ARO conditions, any difference between the recorded ARO liability and the actual retirement costs incurred is recognized as an operating gain or loss in the consolidated statements of income. As of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, the liability for asset retirement obligations was approximately $253,000 and $241,000, respectively.

	Impairment of long-lived assets — The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances dictate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. This review includes the evaluation of individual underperforming retail stores and assessing the recoverability of the carrying value of the assets related to the store. Future cash flows are projected for the remaining lease life. The Company calculates the fair value of long-lived assets using the age-life method. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the difference, if any, between the assets’ fair value and carrying value.
Insurance Reserves	'
	Insurance reserves — Workers’ compensation, general liability and employee medical insurance programs are predominately self-insured. It is the Company’s policy to record a self-insurance liability using estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported or paid, based on historical claims experience and actuarial methods. Actual results can vary from estimates for many reasons, including, among others, inflation rates, claim settlement patterns, litigation trends and legal interpretations. The Company monitors its claims experience in light of these factors and revises its estimates of insurance reserves accordingly. The level of insurance reserves may increase or decrease as a result of these changing circumstances or trends.
	During the fourth quarters of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded adjustments related to positive changes in its actuarial estimates for workers’ compensation and general liability reserves. The adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 resulted in a year-over-year benefit of approximately $150,000 ($91,000 after tax) or $0.01 per diluted share. The adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 resulted in a year-over-year benefit of approximately $900,000 ($578,000 after tax), or $0.03 per diluted share.
Customer Loyalty Program	'
	Customer loyalty program — The Company has established a loyalty program called the K Club, whereby members earn loyalty points in return for making purchases in the Company’s stores, including the e-commerce store. Attaining specified loyalty point levels results in the issuance of discount certificates to the customer. The Company accrues for the expected liability associated with the discount certificates issued, as well as the accumulated points that have not yet resulted in the issuance of a certificate, adjusted for expected redemption rates. This liability is included as a component of accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet and the changes to the liability are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of income.
	The Company has also established a private-label credit card program for its customers. Customers in the private-label credit card program who enroll in K Club are eligible to earn double the points of a regular loyalty program member. The card program is operated and managed by a third-party bank that assumes all credit risk with no recourse to the Company. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company terminated the relationship with a previous third-party bank private-label credit card service provider. As a result of this termination, the Company reversed the remaining $1.2 million accrual related to the previous loyalty program. This reversal was recorded as a credit to cost of sales. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company switched to a new private-label credit card provider.
Deferred Rent	'
	Deferred rent — Many of the Company’s operating leases contain predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals during the initial term. Additionally, the Company does not typically pay rent during the construction period for new stores. For these leases, the Company recognizes the related rental expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease commencing with the date of initial access to the leased space, and records the difference between amounts charged to operations and amounts paid as a liability. The cumulative net excess of recorded rent expense over lease payments totaled $9.8 million, of which $1.2 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses, and $8.6 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet as of February 1, 2014. As of February 2, 2013, $985,000 was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $8.2 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet.
	The Company also receives incentives from landlords in the form of construction allowances. These construction allowances are recorded as deferred rent and amortized as a reduction to rent expense over the lease term. As of February 1, 2014, the unamortized amount of construction allowances totaled $36.5 million, of which $6.2 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $30.3 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet. As of February 2, 2013, $5.7 million was reflected as a current liability in accrued expenses and $31.1 million was reflected as a noncurrent liability in deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet.
Revenue Recognition	'
	Revenue recognition — The Company recognizes revenue at the time of sale of merchandise to customers in its stores. e-commerce revenue is recorded when orders are shipped and title passes to customers. Net sales include the sale of merchandise, net of returns and exclusive of sales taxes.
	Gift card sales are recognized as revenue when tendered for payment. While the Company honors all gift cards presented for payment, the Company determines the likelihood of redemption to be remote for certain gift card balances due to long periods of inactivity. The Company uses the Redemption Recognition Method to account for breakage for unused gift card amounts where breakage is recognized as gift cards are redeemed for the purchase of goods based upon a historical breakage rate. In these circumstances, to the extent the Company determines there is no requirement for remitting card balances to government agencies under unclaimed property laws, such amounts are recognized in the consolidated statement of income as breakage revenue. The Company recognized approximately $1.1 million, $970,000, and $1.1 million in gift card breakage during fiscal 2013, fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively.
Compensation and Benefits	'
	Compensation and benefits — Compensation and benefits includes all store and corporate office salaries and wages and incentive pay as well as stock compensation, employee health benefits, 401(k) plan benefits, deferred compensation benefits, social security and unemployment taxes.
Stock-based Compensation	'
	Stock-based compensation — Stock-based compensation includes expenses associated with stock option grants, restricted stock grants, and other transactions under the Company’s stock plans. The Company recognizes compensation expense for its stock-based payments based on the fair value of the awards. The expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the vesting period within compensation and benefits in the consolidated statements of income. See “Note 7 — Employee Benefit Plans” for further discussion.
Other Operating Expenses	'
	Other operating expenses — Other operating expenses consist of such items as insurance, advertising, utilities, property taxes, supplies, travel, card processing and other bank fees, losses on disposal of assets and various other store and corporate expenses.
Store Preopening Expenses	'
	Store preopening expenses — Store preopening expenses, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are expensed as incurred.
Advertising Expenses	'
	Advertising expenses — Advertising costs are expensed in the period in which the related activity first takes place. These expenses include costs associated with specific marketing campaigns, e-mail communications, paid search and other digital advertising, social media, public relations, in-store collateral and signage, and other expenses related to the in-store experience. Total advertising expense was $9.3 million, $6.7 million and $4.9 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Income Taxes	'
	Income taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between the financial statement and the tax law treatment of certain items. Realization of certain components of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the occurrence of future events. The Company records valuation allowances to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount it believes is more likely than not to be realized. These valuation allowances can be impacted by changes in tax laws, changes to statutory tax rates, and future taxable income levels and are based on the Company’s judgment, estimates, and assumptions regarding those future events. In the event the Company were to determine that it would not be able to realize all or a portion of the net deferred tax assets in the future, the Company would increase the valuation allowance through a charge to income tax expense in the period that such determination is made. Conversely, if the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future, in excess of the net carrying amounts, the Company would decrease the recorded valuation allowance through a decrease to income tax expense in the period that such determination is made.
	The Company provides for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties, if any, based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. To the extent the Company prevails in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, the Company’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected.
	The Company’s income tax returns are subject to audit by local, state and federal authorities; and, the Company is typically engaged in various tax examinations at any given time. Tax contingencies often arise due to uncertainty or differing interpretations of the application of tax rules throughout the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The contingencies are influenced by items such as tax audits, changes in tax laws, litigation, appeals and experience with previous similar tax positions. The Company regularly reviews its tax reserves for these items and assesses the adequacy of the amount recorded. The Company evaluates potential exposures associated with its various tax filings by estimating a liability for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step requires estimation and measurement of the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be recognized upon settlement.
Sales and Use Taxes	'
	Sales and use taxes — Governmental authorities assess sales and use taxes on the sale and purchase of goods and services. The Company excludes taxes collected from customers in its reported sales results. Such amounts are reflected as accrued expenses until remitted to the taxing authorities.
Concentrations of Risk	'
	Concentrations of risk — Most of the Company’s merchandise is purchased through vendors in the United States who import the merchandise manufactured primarily in China. However, the Company believes alternative merchandise sources could be procured over a relatively short period of time.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	'
	Fair value of financial instruments — The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.
Earnings Per Share	'
	Earnings per share — Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period presented, which excludes non-vested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of stock equivalents outstanding during the applicable periods using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options to purchase stock were exercised into common stock and if outstanding grants of restricted stock were vested. Stock options that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would have been antidilutive, were approximately 439,000 shares, 642,000 shares and 288,000 shares for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Comprehensive Income	'
	Comprehensive income — Comprehensive income does not differ from the consolidated net income presented in the consolidated statements of income.
Operating Segments	'
	Operating segments — The Company has determined that each of its stores is an operating segment. The operating performance of all stores has been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s operating segments are aggregated for financial reporting purposes because they are similar in each of the following areas: economic characteristics, class of consumer, nature of products and distribution methods. Revenues from external customers are derived from merchandise sales, and the Company does not rely on any major customers as a source of revenue. Across its store base, the Company operates one store format under the Kirkland’s name in which each store offers the same general mix of merchandise with similar categories and similar customers. The Company believes that disaggregating its operating segments would not provide meaningful additional information.
Reclassifications	'
	Reclassifications — Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year classification. The Company has separately stated the state income taxes receivable and federal income taxes payable in the consolidated balance sheets. State income taxes receivable of $446,000 and $832,000 for fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively are included as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets.
