Liebling is my favorite clothing shop in Burlington. I don't have many pieces from the shop…read morebecause the clothing isn't exactly Vermont-esque and it can be expensive. That being said, if I were still living in a city, I would dress from head to toe in Liebling-style garb. Vermonter Kara Alnasrawi opened Liebling a few years ago. Kara is an ex investment banker who met her husband in Germany (thus the name of the shop). She saw a gap in women's fashion offerings in Burlington and decided to open a clothing shop with items she would wear. I'm so glad she did, because I share her taste in fashion. The brands Liebling carries have clean, simple lines, are made of high-end materials and indeed offer "casual luxury" like it states on the store's website. Sweaters are cashmere, denim is Japanese, shirts are made of silk or fine brushed cotton. The cut of the clothing is flattering but understated. I'm a big fan. Still, in a state where 90% of the inhabitants shop at TJ Maxx and similar bargain stores, I wonder how this shop stays afloat. Regardless, I'm so glad it's here to remind me of other places and lifestyles. Designers include Helmut Lang, Rag & Bone, ALC, Raquel Allegra, Mother Denim, NSF, Goldsign, Inhabit, etc. And the store is now carrying Isabel Borland Jewelry. I went to college with Isabel and I love her aesthetic!!!! I'm so pleased Liebling is carrying her. Her jewelry complements the clothing perfectly. The few other women's shops in town that compare to Lieblling are Monelle (Nantucket-style clothing, lots of whites and navies, stripes, nautical cuts, cotton, linens, and some fancy dresses. Casual elegance); Whim (a bit more trendy, less classic than Monelle, less luxurious than Liebling. More in lines with Ecco); Ecco (trendy mid-range brands) and Jess Boutique (hard to describe, more flowy and mature with prints, not my bag but a lot of people love this shop). The only men's shop that is comparable in the Burlington area is Michael Kehoe. Burlington isn't exactly the fashion capital of the northeast. ;)

I was in serious need of professional attire for a conference and there are very few options for…read morethis kind of wardrobe in Burlington. Terrible customer service. No greeting, no interest in me as a customer whatsoever. I wasn't alone. Another woman about my age had to chase down a sales person to help her find a sweater in the color she wanted. We looked at each other as what appeared to be the manager fawned over one woman trying on dresses for a wedding, and the other devoted her attention to their "favorite customer" who had come in after we had. I finally said to the other ignored customer, "I must look like I'm not here to buy clothing." I was looking forward to getting some help putting together a wardrobe, and trying things on after a year of online shopping. It's not that hard to get Halston. I'll stick with online - the customer service is better.

What really sets this place apart is Bonnie and the rest of the staff -- they're like having your own personal stylist every time you visit, remembering your preferences while suggesting pieces you wouldn't think to try but end up loving. I can't tell you how many times people have walked up to me to compliment my outfit and ask where I bought it. Between the curated selection, thoughtful customer service, and warm, personal experience every visit, Ecco has won my heart!

Haven't shopped at Ecco in years but needed a last minute formal dress for an event. I have had…read moreprevious positive experiences so popped in coming back from school. There were a large number of employees working... but no one seemed interested in my presence in the store. The employees were more interested in talking to each other than helping me. Over 15 minutes of browsing before even a hello (I know this because I didn't have my parking meter long). Someone finally asked if I needed help but at that point I felt so uncomfortable I shopped around myself. When I finally found a dress that would fit my event it was covered in wrinkles. When I asked the employee about how to get them out she tried to say it was just the fabric. I explained there were multiple dresses hung, same fabric, no wrinkles. She admitted it looked like it hadn't even been steamed. She offered to steam it, but I was shocked it was on the rack like that. No one was nice and it seemed like I was an inconvenience to their socializing. The sole purpose of shopping in store is for the experience and customer service- neither of which existed. Bummer they seem to be so out of touch.

This Vermont Flannel Co shop recently opened in Church St Marketplace. It shares the store space…read morewith Vermont Teddy Bear. It's very nicely designed and kept tidy. The store has a limited number of popular products like Flannel shirts, t-shirts, pants, jackets, and blankets. There's no fitting room at this store, which is a bummer. I still bought a flannel shirt, XS size. It was $89, prices are on higher end, but understandable for the quality of the product. The associate was very helpful with the checkout. He signed me up for a rewards account. I received a 10% discount coupon in my email towards my next purchase. I took the shirt back to hotel and tried it out. The XS fitted perfectly as I had anticipated. Happy to have purchased one of Vermont's iconic product.

The woman that owns this shop is very friendly and has a great personality…read more The actual goods in the store though are a little...enh. Some things are cute but the prices are unjustifiable. There was a plastic cuff bracelet that wrapped in a knot that caught my eye, but at $33 or $36 dollars it just wasn't worth it. There are some cute hats in the ~$30 range. There were some plush robes available that were proudly displayed as being "Oprah's favorite robe!" Very squishy. Very expensive (about $140 I think). But some people may find it worth it, and if so, Hydrangea Too is where you can find it. Most of the jewelry looks pretty cheap, honestly. There were some interesting pearl necklaces and earrings though but again, overpriced. Lot of charms, horoscope-themed and otherwise. Some scarves, wallets and plush baby toys. In the end though, Hydrangea Too was another store that was more for browsing than actual buying. Having seen what's available, I don't see myself making a point to come here again when I'm in Burlington. Plus points for very friendly service though!

I highly recommend stopping here and taking a look around.

Focusing mostly on women's apparel, this store also has a section for menswear and children's clothing and there is even a pretty large selection of home items. The fabrics are mostly florals, with beautiful colors and designs. They are reminiscent of Laura Ashley or Vera Bradley, but with more bold colors and different designs. If there are people with you who are bored with shopping, they can sit down on the main floor and visit with the birds that live in the store. The clearance center has some good deals and there are often items on sale on the main floor, but the real deals are found in the basement. I've seen items priced as low as $20, and there are usually racks of clothing that are 40% off. Most recently, I found some very pretty items that will be put away for future gift giving. There are comfortable dressing rooms, plenty of parking out front and even if you don't buy anything, the atmosphere of this beautiful store is worth the visit.
