Every visit is wonderful, they're both so personable and attentive, and the unique finds are phenomenal. Each visit is at least a 1.5 to 2- hour ordeal as I gab away and meticulously go through each rack (and most times double back). Madewell, J Crew, Urban Outfitters-- oh my! ...and in Gainesville, FL?! I stan. No matter when I visit, there's always something (basically everything) rare and wonderful in this store, and also I run across an amazing shoe or two. Weddings, events, and whatever-- I know I can always find some fabulous piece at Urban. The time and attention put into buying and restocking is clear and evident. The prices are great, and the sales are even better. I have run into some store hour issues post-Covid, but I am also and regrettably aware of a few health issues that make it so. I truly hope to always have this store to visit when I'm in the area. It's become a must-stop, and amazing treat that I look forward to when I'm in town. Thank you Lilly for your years of customer service, for heightening the style game, and for bringing apex brands to Gainesville in one shop. For me, you've truly made your mark!

When speaking to the store staff, who consulted with the manager, we were told they would not help her neither with a refund or replacement of the $88 dollar bottom. Their suggestion was to reach out to the manufacturer. ***Buyer beware, unless you are purchasing with the intention of your item being disposable after 30 days - try a more reasonable establishment.

I brought in some shoes today that I feel like people in Gainesville would actually wear. I was walking around the store and over heard someone say I wish they had more of a running shoes selection well I had a pair in my basket and guess what wasn't picked the running shoes. Also the way they are pricing clothes now is insane they gave me 8 dollars for a brand new pair of sandals and high top converses and I bet they will sale the converses for 30 dollars, it's not worth taking up there anymore I'd rather go to Sandys anymore.

One kind employee with short hair constantly workong politely keep apologizing as she was like, she treats us like that too. I thought the worker would unlock the door and relock it after i left. There was a key in the door, to keep more customers from coming in. afterwards after the rude "manager on shift" told me "excuse me old slow lady, we are closed and waiting on you!" I just spent quite a large sum of money and the experience was embarrassing unnecessarily and was clearly bc she was in a "a mood" it wasnt just me as other employees kept apologizing as well. Im a frequent customer and that was the rudest, pushy, superficial, fake nice and unnecessary insults for a regular customer. Then I standed outside to contact corporate and owners of the gainesville location. 20 year old young less than kind ladies need to attend manner and class school. Seriously disappointed. The tone was aggravated in her voice. I mis understood bc of a traumatic brain injury and I had surgery in my neck 30 mins before. She needs more intervention and coaching ​for appropriate social and so to speak bed sign manager. She picked at her under employees. She seems like a bossy hard to swallow "manager" that let it go to her head. Then she laughed as I was apologizing for my misunderstanding for waiting the door to be open as I didnt feel right walking up and opening a door that may have an alarm on it. Some people are kind, accommodating, and try to be nice. That manager is a bully from watching her speak to her own workers​. She tells employees rudely to do xyx instead of asking. I as an owner and former business owner am just appalled. If you heard and watched the video she would be let go. She goes "brain injury, RIGHT?" I Said may God and the universe bless you and may you have a better day and hopefully serious social training. She likes to tell people things vs asking. She shows she bosses around people not asking them kindly or even neutral-she grumpy annoyed voice TELLS them what she is ordering to do. I felt so embarrassed for the other employee. And the other customers. She was behind and spacy. ​its a terrible feeling and look and I plan to put this on gville word of mouth as this treatment to employees and customers is far from kind, appropriate, and good feeling. Retrain her. She needs coached. Also some jobs are just not a good fit for some people. She was frantic angry and all the employees and customers were uncomfortable. They say you remember the way people make you feel. She got a -10/10. -frequent customer since business was opened. I may put this on gainesville word of mouth as it was such a terrible experience, so abnormal, and SO not gainesville. I watched 3 customers leave from discomfort. Its your profits, going down from lack of respect of regular high purchasing customers and all customers. She doesn't like her job. Its all on her face and in her voice. Its just sad. I thought platos in gainesville improved. BOY WAS I WRONG. I may have aspergers autism, but socially even I know I wouldn't want that human on site. Incapable of making your experience nice and seemingly uncapable about not talking poorly about the higher ups, the franchise, and the owners. Just disappointed. Very. Going to put on social media as I know im not the only one she treated that night like that including employees and customers. If she is a manager on duty she needs to come back down to reality and find compassion, class, maturity, and what we customers want is kind words. Not insults and belittling too much info too loud and again so embarrassing for the owners. Its nice to be important however its more important to be kind. ​

Within its walls can be found artisan gifts of handmade jewelry; unique mobiles & clocks; purses, clothing, scarves and hats; musical wall art; pottery; baskets; and beautiful woven clothing made by Malgorzeta herself. The loom is on the premises so you can see what she's creating. (Malgorzeta has 20 years of weaving experience.) Art pieces on site rotate out so new artists are featured; over 200 artists are represented. If there's something you want, but can't find in the shop, just ask; she's happy to order it for you if she's able. (I am currently awaiting a stylish handbag in a color she didn't carry.) Prices are reasonable for the quality; the vast array of different styles of art are appreciated; & this well lit, spotless captivating gem is so deserving of not only a visit, but many return trips! ....................... Update: If 6 stars were a possibility, I would gladly oblige. I returned to purchase my purse, but decided I liked another color better than the one that had been specially ordered for me. The owner & her assistant were extremely friendly & helpful. Even the customer they were assisting was very outgoing! If you love art & supporting artists; an array of eclectic items; & fair prices, this place is a must. I could live inside this store...& quite happily:) And it's so accessible; it's in Thornebrook on the east side...to the left of Bageland. It's just feet from plenty of parking.
