And like many there are things to improve. But when looking at the bigger picture, it is affordable and it offers things you usually pay double on other stores.

H&M is a great addition to Gurnee Mills. This Swiss clothing discounter is akin to the IKEA of…read moreretailing: quality is good but styling is superb. H&M really has their finger on the pulse of fashion trends and they bring them at an amazingly low price point. From socks ($17.95 for 10 pairs) to sunglasses ($10 a pair), I rely on H&M to deliver the goods. I had my sunglasses on a few weekends ago and my friend asked, "Where'd you get those fancy designer shades?" How cool is that? I've gotten a stylish navy blue trench coat there and found shorts on sale for amazing prices. Yesterday I found a great pair of lounging shorts for $5! I spotted a very cool cowl neck cotton pullover for my partner which was just in as well. At $29, it looked just like the one that sells for $195 at Allsaints Spitalfields or James Perse. From time to time, they will partner with high-end designers to bring a special capsule collection to the store. Right now, they're featuring French designer Isabel Marant. In the past, they've had collections by Viktor & Rolf, Jimmy Choo, Karl Lagerfeld, Versace, Stella McCartney, Roberto Cavalli, Comme des Garçons, Matthew Williamson and Sonia Rykiel. Of course, if you want to feel like sports royalty, you can find the underwear collection by David Beckham there as well. People have mentioned that lines can be long here, which is true. It's the trade off you pay for getting this merchandise. As for help on the floor, the people who work here are helpful if you can find one available. I don't mind about this so much. These aren't deal breakers for me. I've also gone here to pick up gifts for friends around their birthdays and the holidays. I always find really fun gifts from purses to hats to jewelry. It's hip and inexpensive. I love H&M.

This is a huge warehouse with many aisles of shoes. I looked through every aisle--twice. I picked out some child shoes in the hopes that they would fit the bill. But nooooooo! Online purchasing is possible I suppose, but I needed the pair immediately and isn't that why I would go to a physical store? I did purchase the children's shoes but had to return them. Staff was very helpful with the return process. And I received a dukedom!

No one should ever be made to feel unwelcome or uncomfortable while shopping, especially by the very people who are supposed to be helping them find what they need. The condescending looks and attitudes of the staff made me feel like I wasn't welcome in the store and I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. It's a shame that a store that is known for quality products and customer service would treat their customers in such a way. If Talbot's in Lake Forest wants to keep their customers coming back, they need to take a hard look at the way they train their staff. Every customer should be treated with respect and dignity and heck even a welcome smile. Until they make significant improvements in their customer service, I cannot recommend shopping at this location and will drive to another location simply to avoid the negative feeling here.

Not a large selection of separates, prices seem to be cheaper online than in the outlet. I wanted some undershirts and same size, same style was in two different packages. One was marked down and one wasn't. I asked why and both employees looked back and forth at the two items and said: We dont know. We ended up leaving empty handed. Since the store was empty of customers, I am sure many stopped coming here as well. Really sad.

I paid on the spot for the vest and it arrived at my home promptly, and certainly before the holiday. The staff is very friendly and they also offer a student discount. Looking forward to purchasing more high-quality items from them again soon!

They had a great variety of attire from head to toe with every size available even 2x! The prices were the same or lower as the competitor stores and really reasonable considering whatever you purchase will probably outlive you! Their clothes are super tough and durable beyond what you'd expect! I found a great thicker fall seasonal T-shirt at a great price that I can't wait to wear! Their packaging is very nice and if you purchase something as a gift for someone, the bag can easily be used for that!

It is so important that women are sized correctly so that their bra will fit comfortably. They have various pajamas, sweats, underwear, bra's, nylons, socks, and shape wear. There are many great deals with underwear packs, and sock packs. I will never purchase underwear or socks anywhere else. I love being able to save money and know that I am getting more for my money. I'm lucky because I live close by. Hanes outlet also has racks where Champion and Hanes brands are marked down in the back part of the store. These items are designed to move and priced that way. I have found deals up to 60% off on pajamas and found underwear marked down to $2.50 to $5 per pair.

Sometimes I just want a functional yet comfortable undergarment I could use on the regular that lasts. After a few trips here, Hanesbrands checks off all those boxes. Their bras come in a wide range of cup and band sizes so you're bound to find the right bra to fit you best. I already purchased five bras from their stores and I'll have to say, their bras are the most comfortable pairs I've ever owned. Their outlet shop in Pleasant Prairie has year round sales and the prices are pretty standard with bras going for about $30/piece. I went there last month and there was a sale going on with buy 3, get the 4th free. I ended up getting one strapless bra and 3 cotton t-shirt bras, plus a large mesh lingerie laundry bag for about $90 after tax. The sales tax of 5.5% is another nice draw to shopping here. If there is a Hanesbrands near you, I would definitely check them out.
