So it turned out to be very convenient to get to. There's ample parking in the large lot. I was looking for something I'd seen in one of their other stores. They had it, so I was happy. But of course, we had to browse a bit. We wound up also getting some candy and a few toys for the grandkids. The staff was very helpful at checkout, as well. I'd come back here if in the area.

Hallmark's history goes all the way back to 1907 as the Norfolk Post Card Company, founded by Joyce…read moreClyde Hall and his older brothers, William and Rollie. It operated out of the Norfolk, Nebraska bookstore the brothers worked at. In 1910, Joyce "J.C." Hall dropped out of high school and ventured to Kansas City, Mo. to sell wholesale postcards. In Kansas City, Hall could take advantage of the city's many rail connections to make quick sales trips to outlying towns. Soon business was booming and Rollie came to join his brother and they opened their own shop, Hall Brothers. In 1915, a fire destroyed the brothers shop and all of its inventory but they were able to take this set back and turn it into a success. The brothers took out a loan, bought an engraving company, and started creating unique designs they could market exclusively. As the postcard business waned they were poised to move into the new business of selling printed greeting cards for holidays. Another opportunity came for Hallmark when the company ran out of the traditional tissue paper that was used for wrapping gifts. Instead they started using French paper that had been purchased for lining envelopes. Demand for the paper was so great that Hallmark began printing their own paper and that is how wrapping paper was invented. The name Hallmark first appeared in 1925. It was chosen because it encompassed the family name while also stating quality. By 1928 it was on every card the Hall brothers' company sold and in 1954, Hall Brothers Inc. changed its name to Hallmark. Over 100 years later, the Hallmark company is still a private company, still in Kansas City, and still run by the Hall family. J.C. Hall's son Donald J. Hall is chairman of the Hallmark board and his son Donald Jr. is president and CEO of the company. There are both company and independently owned stores in five countries. Other fun facts: since 1984 Hallmark has owned Binney and Smith Inc the parent company of Crayola Crayons and they have produced more than 250 movies and taken home 81 Emmy's. As you might be able to tell I am a big Hallmark fan. Unfortunately many in the area have closed in recent years. That is why I was so happy to discover that there is still a Hallmark open in the Gardens Mall. I collect certain series of Hallmark ornaments and July is their debut month. Hallmark first introduced their ornaments in 1973 and their longest running series is Frosty and Friends which started in 1980. My first introduction to collecting was the 1984 pink Victorian that kicked off the Nostalgic Houses series and I have since gone on to collect many other series. I was so happy to be able to pick up this years Dream Book featuring all of the ornaments. I was less happy to see that prices continued to increase this year. In addition to their beautiful holiday displays, the store is packed with an impressive selection of greeting cards, gift wrap, toys, figurines, home décor, jewelry, accessories, and gifts for just about any occasion. They feature brands that include Lilly Pulitzer, Vera Bradley, Bogg Bags, and Spartina's Florida Map collection, all of which I love. They also carry fun novelty socks with salty sayings, as well as Bombas socks, which I've tried before and are incredibly comfortable. Even though it's still summer, their Halloween collection was already out for fans of Summerween. I also spotted some wonderfully soft pajamas and beautifully scented candles that would make thoughtful gifts. And when it comes to buying a card for someone I care about, Hallmark cards have a way of making every occasion feel a little more special.

I'm impressed that the Hallmark shop still stands. All of the ones that I've seen in local malls…read moreand shopping centers are long gone. This one had a bit of a limited selection compared to the Hallmark stores that I've used to. They have downsized a lot since the time of pre-Covid. They only offer cards and a small section of knickknacks now, instead of the larger selection of everything that they used to have. The part that I'm disappointed in is the lack of miniature Glass Animals. They did away with those, which was sad.

I was surprised because of the shopping center it is located in which has had some ups and downs. The store was organized and neat. And it had all the latest styles and some very good holiday sales. I saw quite a few things I liked. And I wound up buying a new designer top that I fell in love with -- for a ridiculously low price. I'm going to have to shop here more often. So glad I came.

Surprised that they no longer carry my Portmerion dishes. They have a lot of Mahjong sets and very clever looking gift ideas as well. Dillards was shockingly empty. I hope they remain in business.

I'm not normally a regular Dillard's shopper. But I happened to mention to a friend (a fellow Yelp…read moreElite) that I was looking for a new dress for an occasion, and she suggested this Dillard's store. We were in the area of the Wellington Mall today, so I decided to stop by. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I've been to several other stores recently -- including Macy's and Nordstrom's Rack and a couple others -- and this Dillard's turned out to have the most selection of dressy dresses of any of the stores I've already visited. I was able to browse at my leisure. The dresses were grouped together which was a big advantage. And I actually found six different dresses to try on. Unfortunately, I didn't fall in love with any of them, so I didn't buy anything. However, I felt this trip here was more than worthwhile. I'm narrowing down what I like and what I don't in all the options available. Prices here were quite good, too. There was a variety of price ranges, but nothing was outrageous. Thank you, Britt Z, for the suggestion. I'll try to return the favor.

We were nearby having lunch and I saw their sale sign. I just had to stop in…read more I'm not a big Chico's buyer of their clothes. But over the years I've found some costume jewelry at good prices that I have worn for years and years. So I came to see what they had. I was immediately warmly greeted on entering and offered assistance. That was a nice change -- as I don't fit the palm beach profile or look. I browsed the sale jewelry -- lots of interesting pieces. But I wound up buying something that wasn't on sale... Oh well, that is usually cause I have good taste -- per my husband! Ha ha. But I was happy. My chosen piece was put in a pretty gauze bag and then in another Chico's shopping bag. Check out was fast and easy. And yes, I'd definitely return here when next in the area. PS I was so busy browsing that I forgot to take more pictures. Sorry.

She can't go in a chicos without spending 600.00 a trip, but this time she didn't spend a dime because of the offensive and rude behavior of the horrible employee. Most Chico employees will bend over backwards to help and offer additional suggestions to you but this one was the absolute opposite. We will go back to the Boca location! Maybe this one should just close since it's not intended for shopping!

While enjoying the Lake Worth Annual Street Painting Festival I noticed this adorable gift store…read more In addition to showcasing artists, the festival also gives a boost to local shops and restaurants. Sea You Boutique opened in August of last year and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. They bill themselves as a beachy, boho boutique. They sell bags, art, beauty product, clothes, accessories, home goods, plants and pots, candles, kids clothing and toys, books, stationary, pantry goods, and more. There is something for every budget. If you can't make it in they also have an online store. They also recently started offering in store workshops. Follow them on social media for dates and times and new items. I really like the Florida line of bracelets and the swimmer necklace. Quite a few bags caught my eye too as did the gorgeous teal Talavera tumblers. They have items with Lake Worth Beach on them like shirts and stationary. If you love a beachy, tropical vibe, this is your sign to visit Sea You Boutique for a souvenir, a gift, or just to treat yourself.
