As The North Face has become more mainstream and a fashion trend, I've started to shy away from it…read more Although a bit more expensive at times, I'm a huge fan of Marmot, especially their shells. I find them more stylish than Arcteryx (which specialized in cold weather) and Mountain Hardware, and less pretentious and simply better fitting than The North Face. My particular faves are their Precip and Oracle jackets. You can really only get these at higher end stores like Any Mountain, REI, or a speciality snow sports/outdoor store. Personally REI has great deals at end of season and honestly I don't care if it's last year's style.

This review is for the Marmot warranty repair service. I have two Marmot tents, an Aeolos 2P and an…read moreEos 1P. I've had the Aeolos 2P for almost three years now, and it's my go-to tent for backcountry camping, car camping, and rock climbing trips. One of the door zippers stopped working and the teeth wouldn't catch fully. I washed it (for the first time), set it up in my living room to dry, and sent it in for repair. A few weeks later, it was good as new and free of charge! Similar zipper issue with my Eos 1P, except this time for the rainfly. I bought this tent for my sabbatical trips to Patagonia and New Zealand and have probably spent more than 25 nights in it so far. Got it cleaned up, sent it in, and today I just got it back from FedEx. I wouldn't hesitate to buy more Marmot gear as they really stand behind their products.

I was very disappointed that they only had the two very small dressing room rooms open at the time and there was a very long line. I had to wait about 15 minutes just to get into the dressing room somebody had been one of the dressing rooms the whole time I was waiting. I'm not sure when they actually went into the dressing room but they must've been in there for over 20 to 30 minutes.

Overall I think Novella is not bad, but their lead alteration person is retired and while I was…read morecoming in, she was retiring. I ended up being charged more than the quoted amount and had to bring my dress back a few times because she missed some basic things. I don't think the person whos doing alterations there is still there so perhaps this review is quickly outdated, but I would say there's definitely not the kind of attention to detail I would have appreciated being at this price point and for this kind of thing where attention to detail for wedding dresses is so important. Every time I've been there, there's been some brides trying on beautiful gowns, so it seems like they have a good selection of dresses if that's what you're in the market for!

I visited Novella bridal on a whim yesterday after having spent the day in the city. I had gone…read morebridal dress shopping twice previously, with two different entourages in two other cities, and I was feeling discouraged about what I wanted, and pleasing others. First of all, PLEASE make an appointment with them. They have a small staff, and are quite busy accommodating brides! I was incredibly lucky to be greeted by Seneca, who after listening to my sob story offered to squeeze me in for an afternoon appointment to try a couple sample dresses I'd seen listed on Stillwhite. She was such a sweetheart, and when I returned for my appointment, had the two dresses I'd requested pulled, as well as a few others of the similar style. Although I didn't have a group with me, Seneca was incredibly patient and supportive while I mulled over the dresses, and hyped me up to fall in love with my original vision. Some of the sample dresses being sold are quite affordable for the budget conscious bride which was a huge plus! Additionally, I've seen fantastic reviews about their in house alterations. Highly recommend whether you're lost in your wedding dress search, or if you want an exceptional experience picking exactly what you want!

Some items required simple hemming, others a more complex combination of alterations, and every item now fits perfectly.
