Its also a bit expensive but your are guaranteed that the quality of the product is better than other competitors. I do like this particular store, its not too busy and well merchandise. The entire store looks amazing and alive. The visual decor is spot on and everything is cohesive. The brand offers an assortment of women's, men's and children's apparel and accessories, including swimwear, outerwear, loungewear, wedding, bags, accessories, belts, jewelry, and shoes. Sale items are located at the end of the store. Usually they are placed in one corner. The sale signages are not visible so I suggest you ask the staff. Without a doubt the staff here is very polite and accommodating. I've been here many times and I've noticed that they greeted each and every customer that comes in to the store with a warm welcoming smile.

As soon as you have more than one piece of clothing in your hands, someone will come by and offer to start you a dressing room. It doesn't stop there. For people who are slightly fashion challenged like me, they will give their opinions on the outfits you try on, create outfits for you, and recommend a tailor if need be. I'm not sure if this is the case in the other J. Crews, but it certainly hasn't been offered to me anywhere else.

This is a great store but the people who work here are AWFUL. I have been here several times -…read morethey are not friendly and SLOW AS MUD. When I checked out today it seemed like my clerk had better things to do and I was just wasting her time. They are having a great sale right now and that is why it was worth WAITING in line to be treated like I was non-existent. OK SO HERE ARE A FEW CLUES FOR THE EMPLOYEES: 1. You are here to wait on me - that is your job 2. Smile - be nice 3. Earn your paycheck don't just put in your time I think there needs to be some personnel change and SOON

And of course I take a lap or two around the women section. Hahah from business attire to lounge wear, I never know what clothing items sneak to the register with me.

My only beef is that they have gold on almost everything and very few bags that have silver tones. I don't really wear gold so that's a problem for me. Anyway - I can deal! Their current color palette is nudes and blush and whites. All my favorite colors! The location upstairs is actually by Nordstrom and is right across from where the Coach store used to be. It's open and airy with a contemporary design. They have their clothing on a rack on the side and sale items in a back corner clearly marked. I found a very cute messenger bag clutch and wallet on sale last weekend and got about 30% off. Sales staff are friendly and personable - I've always found them to be helpful. Bags are around $200-300 depending on size with wallets around $100-200.

Right now, though I love walking through it and looking at the paintings and the graffiti type murals that's on display I also really enjoy all the different art spots everything from the youth center to the display of the governor school. There's even a little train museum here. They still have a couple of staples open such as slush and Auntie Annie's pretzels. It is sad to see the movie theater closed and it's one of the best places to park at if you have to go anywhere downtown it's pretty inexpensive. We went to a play over a Chrysler and I had to pay a dollar to park. I will forever love the mall and hopefully when they do rebuild, they keep a lot of of the old soul intact. Very, very selfie friendly bathrooms and plate area still intact

Three days before MacArthur Center closes for good, I brought my kids to the mall to spend an…read moreafternoon making a few last memories. They were happily riding the escalator, and I was taking a simple video of them on my phone. To my surprise, a security guard stopped me and told me that videotaping was not permitted. At first I didn't even realize she was speaking to me because she was mumbling from a distance. When I continued recording my children, she approached again and more firmly told me that no videotaping was allowed. What made the experience so frustrating is that the mall is literally days away from closing. The building was largely empty, my children were simply riding the escalator, and I was recording family memories--not conducting a commercial photo shoot or disrupting anyone. Meanwhile, there have been photographers and members of the media documenting the mall's final days. The whole interaction felt unnecessary and unwelcoming. Instead of leaving with fond memories of one last visit to MacArthur Center, I left feeling scolded for recording my own children in an almost-empty mall that will no longer exist in a matter of days. Consumer habits may have changed over the years, but experiences like this certainly don't encourage people to return. It was a disappointing way to end what should have been a nostalgic final visit.

But everytime I came in the manager wasn't there or they kept informing me of the wrong times the manager would be at the store. Had to waste three trips from Virginia Beach to receive absolutely no help for such a simple request. I certainly would not come back to purchase anything else from this establishment. If you're a consumer who enjoys employees to dodge and ignore your concerns I suggest to stay away.

It's a Coastal Edge skater hip type of atmosphere that works for the current day. The store presented well with lots of displays of unisex clothing for teens. In the rear are skate boards and accessories. The Stance socks my son wanted were behind the counter strangely enough. I'm assuming they are a high theft item and not cheap running $15-$20+. My son looked over their stocks, they do allow customers behind the counter. However, there is not a lot of wiggle room. A staff person up front asked if she could help, then let my son browse. When it was time to purchase she assisted with sizing. Check out of a couple pair of socks was flawed with an issue on a Visa gift card and their system. It took a few additional minutes but was quickly resolved. I would recommend and shop them again.

It wasn't explained well and I was not given a refund for the difference. If it wasn't for the BOGO offer on the sweats, this store isn't worthy of the one star. Blow your nose...

Well, these bags are created using recycled plastic water bottles, pineapple leaf fiber and billboard vinyl. And what's so awesome about that is that it's from our very own city Norfolk that those recycled items are from! These bags range from travel bags, backpacks, crossbody bags, wallets, and other accessories. They also have clothing now. No two bags are the same. My daughter and I came to this store inside MacArthur on a Saturday afternoon. They had so many types and designs of their bags we were at a loss for words. Their new line of crossbody earth bags come in different colors. I fell in love with the mustard colored bag (so did my daughter) we both bought the same one! The billboards and plastic water bottles they recycle to make these gorgeous bags are from our local area! What other reason do you need to buy these bags? Go online and check them out! There's a bag for everyone; regardless of what you're into.
