I discovered this delightful shop shortly after it opened. In the 4 decades since, I have always…read morefound the selection offered there to be vibrant, tastefully artistic, and of consistently high quality. I still have shoes and other items I have purchased there many years ago, and everything's still good as new. There is an uplifting and positive vibe to the merchandise curated by Jane, the owner/buyer. This is further reflected in the kindness and courtesy of the management and staff. If you're in town visiting your university student offspring, here to attend a wedding, or whatever, I recommend adding Bonomo's to itinerary/funlist.

Bonomo's only carries one of each size. Clothing ranges from suits, dresses, and stylish designer…read morepants and tops to casual shirts, jeans, sweaters, and raincoats! There is a jeweler on the premises that will custom make a necklace, bracelet, or earrings to match any occasion, or your selected clothing. There is a huge jeans and capris selection in the back that is almost hidden, but certainly worth a a peak. Coffee, tea, or water are offered, while you shop. Masks are required and social distancing is easy to maintain. I love the personal attention and pampering. This is a great shop to get a unique gift for someone who is hard to shop for. They even carry designer masks!

This was the only worthy shopping escape within downtown Blacksburg that offered cute, unique…read moreclothes. They have some really pretty dresses here, some of which I purchased for formals and special occasions. Mad Dog has quite a few cute shoes and accessories too, along with some interesting knick knacks for decor. They offer some cool picture frames as well, which I bought as gifts for a few friends, who loved them. The price tags on the clothes are a bit pricey, though. Not somewhere the average college student can regularly shop, unless you are one of those spoiled sorority girls who have their parents pay their credit card bill every month (which seemed to be the case with a lot of Mad Dog's customers). Overall, it is a nice escape to indulge in occasional retail therapy post-final exams.

Not impressed. I'm really surprised this store has stayed open as long as it has. They do have some…read morecute clothing, but they overcharge for them. The material of the dresses do not warrant the price tags that accompany them. The quality of the clothing is on par with Forever 21, but they're charging double or triple for it. They do have some cute accessories and small home goods. Considering this is one of the only places to shop in Blacksburg, it's not bad, but no matter what, you'll end up overpaying for anything you buy here.

Boutique's gain their business based on the unique personalities of each employee, that is not the case with this Blacksburg shop. Their return policy keeps me from wanting to "shop small" because if I need to return something that was not a good fit I can only exchange or get store credit. At that rate, I'd just rather buy directly from the brand.

310 is the only clothing store in Blacksburg that I like. I recently bought the leather spanx…read moreleggings that I'd wanted for soooo long. They cost $98 but they are sooooo cute, so I bought them during the 20% off midterms sale for university students. Once I got home and already ripped off the tags, I saw that there was a hole on my butt!! I called the store and the girl told me to come in the next day when the manager was there. The Manager took one look at them with my receipt and tags and immediately went to grab another pair for me. They didn't have them but said they'd ship them in from the Roanoke store. Got them a few day later and love them so much so thank you 310!!!

The store is pretty well organized and even though I had doubts, I'm glad I stopped in here. The cashier seemed confused when I tried to use the $5 foursquare coupon and I felt bad for holding up the line. I guess my only criticism would be to train the workers better. I would go back because you never know what kind of deals you can get here.

I didn't hear anything for 6 weeks so I contacted them to find out what was going on and since they mail their jewelry out to be repaired, they had to contact the person. When I finally got a quote it was for $600. I asked how much it would be just to repair it and I waited a few more weeks for that number. The entire process took almost 3 months and every time I had to initiate the communication. They didn't even start working on it until 2 weeks before I received it. Communication was horrible and no apology or discount was given. I would not recommend them for jewelry repair.

No one said, "thanks for coming in or have a good day," we were pretty much invisible. Clothing is overpriced in my opinion, pre-owned items selling for nearly new prices.

My fiancé and I went in to look around and see what they had, and it was obvious the employees were upset by our presence. One employee literally followed us around (to make sure we were stealing or something?), just constantly finding something she needed to do within a few feet of us the entire time we were in the store. Additionally, for a second hand store, the prices are crazy. You'd be far better off shopping pretty much anywhere else, this place is just pretentious and unwelcoming.
