First off, I don't shop. I hate styles and trends, and I don't like hunting and gathering through…read morecheap crappy clothing. Second, I have a particular style in my head. It's a particular "platonic ideal" of what clothing should be like. Most stores don't fit this idea. However, I was casually walking through downtown Palo Alto and a display of unique clothing jumped out at me. This was J Foss, a wonderful store full of high quality, beautiful clothing with glorious style. Most importantly, the lady at the shop was extremely pleasant and helpful. She did what great small shop owners should do -- look you over, get excited that you're in their store, compliment your style and start bring you the new and interesting things that they "just got in". Her suggestions led me to purchase more than I would have without her help. The whole experience was very smooth and pleasant, and I will be going back there when I'm next in town.

Amazing customer service! They actually took my Small Zipper Tote back! I explained that the gold…read morehardware was making the bag too heavy, and I couldn't carry it before or after I filled it up without excruciating shoulder pain. Even though their policy says bags can be returned within thirty days, they made an exception for me! I'm so happy! They gave me my three hundred bucks back, and there was no pressure to buy anything else instead. I bought the sportier version in mocha without the gold hardware. I like it so much more than the bougie bag! I'm not a fan of gold on my bags. I like the sporty and casual look so much more than the bougie look! So minimalist, so light!!

Oof, awkward. Recent customer service here needs self reflection. I've been a Cuyana fan since its…read moreearly online days when they were only in San Francisco, and both my husband and I have made substantial purchases both online and in store over the years. While I still like Cuyana products, the service in this location is disappointing. You're better off staying online if you can. The last time we were at the Stanford shopping center, we happened to see a sign outside Cuyana that said treats/drinks with Anton (Patisserie). So I excitedly thought why not drop in? We see a table at the back with several treats, and debate which ones to try. Just as I'm debating a second macaron to grab for my husband, the associate approaches us for the first time during our visit. She apparently was watching us from behind, visibly upset and worked up about how it's only ONE per person. Ok, chill, no need to speak like we're thieves or a nuisance -- especially because this is the first time you've bothered to interact with us at all during the visit without any acknowledgement or greeting upon us entering? Read the room. You obviously don't care about service but are worried about one too many treats for a couple of people just happy to be there and look around. Talk about being unwelcoming. What's the point of advertising treats when your customers don't even feel welcomed to enjoy them? And no we're not there "just for free stuff."

My husband and I came across the moss wall art displays at Terrain back in Jan while browsing…read morearound various shops at Stanford Mall with a friend. I was intrigued by them and thought we could use something similar for the empty space above our fireplace at home. I wanted to hang some kind of art other than a painting there, anyway. I did some research online and found similar art work on Etsy. However, I wasn't comfortable ordering online for something the size we wanted without seeing their actual work in person. When our daughter was in town at the end of March, we went to Terrain again to get her opinion and to discuss with the staff there in more detail before deciding to order a single custom art piece. We talked to one of their designers, Reid, about the different options, and told her our budget, the size, the wood pieces and decorative elements we liked. Reid was incredible and so easy to work with. She sent us photos of her beautiful initial design of the moss art base and some decorative options after about a week. After exchanging a couple emails and talking on the phone with her, we stopped by to look at some of the elements in person as we're in the area that day, anyway. We loved how Reid refined the piece based on our feedback, and always kept us posted on any changes in price estimates. The end result looked stunning! When we picked up the moss art, another staff took great care in finding a large box and wrapping it so that we could bring the piece back home safely. We really appreciated it. I signed up for Terrain text message and got a 10% off code. They honored it at the store, as well. Every time we're in the store, we always found something interesting to look at, and the staff were super friendly. It's been more than 6 months, and the moss art still looks great. We love it!

This review is long overdue - we first visited the Madewell store at Stanford Shopping Center back…read morein February, and we've been back several times since. I want to give a special shout-out to Teresa, the store manager, who made our first visit truly exceptional. My teen daughter was feeling shy and awkward walking in (shopping for jeans will do that), and let's be real - the last person she wanted style advice from was me. But Teresa was a total gem. She was friendly, approachable, and instantly put my daughter at ease. She listened carefully to what my daughter was looking for, then came back with a ton of great options. While my daughter was trying on jeans, Teresa even pulled some sale items for me (bonus points!). I honestly expected to walk out with maybe one thing, but we left with quite a haul - and it was 100% worth it. Teresa also let me know about Madewell's free alterations for rewards members, which I had somehow missed even though I've shopped there for years. The entire staff had Teresa's same energy - welcoming, enthusiastic, and genuinely helpful. Between the personalized service, quality of the clothes, and how good my daughter felt walking out, the experience was more than worth the money we spent. We need more shopping experiences like Madewell @ Stanford - where people make you feel good, not just about how you look, but how you're treated.
