Working with Julia was incredible. As both my body and lifestyle changed, I found myself stuck - I…read moreknew my current wardrobe wasn't working, but even after endless Pinterest scrolling, I still had no idea what I wanted my style to be. I specifically looked for a stylist who wouldn't focus on what was "flattering," but would instead help me understand what clothes made me feel good, why, and how to cultivate more of that - and that's what Julia did! She took the time to truly get to know what I was looking for, what I needed, and what I liked (and didn't like). The in-person closet review was especially eye-opening. When she pointed out that I was wearing the wrong size in some of my clothes, it seemed like such an obvious detail - but hearing it from someone else made an impact. I also really appreciate her reminders in our follow-up conversations that this isn't a magic-wand situation. Things don't change overnight; it's a process of discovering what works for me and what doesn't. Thanks to Julia, I finally have a clear vision of the style I want to cultivate, and I'm genuinely thrilled with the work we've done together.

Stickers. Trinkets. Gizmos. Gadgets. Whozits. Whatzits. You could spend hours in here looking at all of the creativity, humor, and the immaculately curated whimsical elegance of everything in between. Local artists. Small businesses. Fresh brands. Major franchises. And everything in between. Yeah, you could be a jagoff and scan everything and possibly find a cheaper price by $0.50 on Amazon... but didn't you just fill enjoy the curation of this store to the value of that $0.50. Somehow even with tight aisles and every nook and cranny accounted for... the employees keep this all perfectly organized. If you are in Shadyside, you'd be a fool to not take a lap through here.

The selection of books is just right and I seem to always find something for me and for whomever it is I'm shopping, from the book lover to the cat lady to the political friend. Kards Unlimited is a safe space for everybody. I am so grateful for their messaging. They also feature local makers and artists, which is a plus! Honestly, it's one of the best spots in the city with so much to look at and discover.

Also refreshing was the large selection of music, decor, and record players for sale. Everything was organized very well and we were surprised to see some things in pristine condition. I'm not sure I encountered an employee the entire time I was there. That was how low key they were, which was nice. No pressure and no one breathing down your neck. I personally don't usually shop for records, but the people I was with thought some of the prices were a little high. I thought the artwork seemed like a good value. The variety is worth stopping in for, for sure.

Everything is really easy to find, and the employees are more than willing to help you find what you need. I'd describe the clothing here as trendy, somewhat nice/somewhat casual. Mostly catered to young adults. I didn't see any ripped or super revealing clothing, nor did I see anything ultra fancy. It's somewhere right in the middle. It's on the more expensive end, but prices fall right in line with this boutique-style clothing all over the market, so nothing outrageous. Shout out to Lauren and her coworker who I met for the first time yesterday! While I was waiting in line with my purchase, they were met by a couple of concerned customers who were a tad high-maintenance. Both Lauren and her coworker were extremely patient and went out of their way to help these customers get the best price and feel happy with their purchases. I was impressed. Nicely done, you two! I'll be back for sure!

I've been in the store more recently then in the past and I'm in love with Francesca's!! What continues to draw me back though is Becky. Becky is always friendly and ready to be your personal shopper. She gives amazing advice and is quick to make suggestions that she thinks will enhance your look. I also appreciate her honest if she thinks an outfit may look better in another color or fit. People pay big money to have someone like Becky. When I'm there it's like I'm shopping with my best friend. The awesome thing is I've watched Becky in action and she is like this with each and every customer. I love her positive, happy, cheerful excitement for fashion. She can always tell you how and what to wear with it if you need suggestions. She takes one look and can tell you the vibe of the outfit. You can tell she loves what she does and knows a great deal about fashion. You always leave feeling beautiful. Thank you, Becky!!
