My daughter and I stopped by Absolutely Fabulous while our boat was docked in Kirkland. We were…read moredressed casually because we'd been out on the lake, and my daughter--who is heading into her senior year--had spotted a beautiful dress in the front window that she thought might be perfect for her senior photos. We walked in, patiently waited while the employee finished helping another customer, and expected at least a simple "Hi, I'll be with you in a moment." Instead, once the customer left, we were completely ignored. Not a greeting, not eye contact, not an acknowledgment that we were standing there. The employee simply started hanging clothes as though we were invisible. It was one of the most unwelcoming retail experiences I've had. The atmosphere came across as elitist and judgmental--as if our casual boating clothes somehow meant we weren't worth acknowledging. The irony is that we absolutely had the means and every intention of buying a dress and supporting a local Kirkland business. Instead, we took our money elsewhere. A boutique should make people feel welcome, regardless of what they're wearing. Unfortunately, this store made us feel judged the moment we walked through the door. I won't be back, and I certainly can't recommend it based on how we were treated.

NORDSTROM RACK @ KIRKLAND TOTEM LAKE…read more Parking is available in their lot, and it's shared with the rest of the plaza. It does get extremely busy especially on weekends but you'll still be able to find a spot. All parking is completely free. When you walk into Nordstrom Rack, you'll either take the escalator or the elevator since everything is on the second floor. The store itself is huge, and they always have a lot of items on sale. I came in specifically looking for UGG shoes, but they were sold out everywhere. The associate, Aiden, was extremely helpful and kind. He went through every single aisle trying to find the exact pair I wanted, and even though they weren't in stock, I really appreciated how much effort he put in. The store has a big selection, especially when it comes to clothes. A lot of the items are designer pieces, yes, they're discounted, but most things still range from around $60 to $100, especially jeans and other clothing. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here and would definitely come back. I like this location. It's not the biggest Nordstrom Rack I've been to, but it still has a great selection, and it works perfectly for being in Totem Lake.

I have been a loyal customer of the Totem Lake Rack location since it first opened, which is why I…read morewas so disappointed by my experience today. Less than a month ago, I purchased three of the same work shirts. After the very first wash, one of the shirts began falling apart due to what appeared to be poor fabric quality. I returned to the store with the other two shirts, which were completely unworn and still had the original tags attached. I also brought the damaged shirt, along with its tags, hoping the store would stand behind the quality of the product. Unfortunately, the manager was rude and immediately told me she would not accept the damaged shirt because it had been worn. I politely asked to speak with the store manager, but when she came out, she was also dismissive, rude, and showed no concern for my situation or my long-standing loyalty as a customer. I understand that stores have return policies, but I believe there should also be consideration for defective merchandise and for customers who have supported the store for years. I left feeling disappointed, unheard, and undervalued. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so that future customers receive better service and defective products are handled more fairly.

With one week left before we flew out for our wedding, he was able to fix my now husband's Ralph Lauren all-white suit to perfection. He only needed one try-on to get his measurements and desired tailoring, and hubby picked it up on the Sunday before our Monday flight. It was incredible. Granted, he charged us extra for the rushed tailoring, but his work is unmatched. It was meant to be for us to go to him and get his tailoring skills before our wedding. Huuuge Thank you to Scott!

We bonded over our affinity of coffee; she was definitely the bright spot as we rang up my purchases. I came in to pick up an outfit for a baseball game, impromptu and I hadn't brought a change of clothes. I've avoided Ross Dress for Less, due to the nature of how they treat their patrons. The Tukwila Ross, and the Ross in Oahu, HI. I'm looking at you both! Just know that immediately as you enter the premises, you will be met with an assured and pointed greeting from someone dressed as or cosplaying as security. :-) My attention was grabbed by the display offering assorted men's fragrances, I did a quick search and found a well-reviewed Leather Oud, by Tahari for $10.00 dollars. I actually like it, and its reminiscent to something I have, but is a little bit brighter. So, if you like fragrances, I'd definitely browses Ross's offering. Definitely do a search for price comparisons. Now, if you a person of size, you may have a bit of trouble finding shirts of any style that may or may not fit, I didn't bother to looks, as I took a quick glance and the picking are slim to none. Thats on the buyers for the stores. I did manage to find 2 pairs of pants, in the men's section, unfortunately the choice in sizes is limited as is the color choices. if you're 38 and above, best of luck. On another positive, I did feel like I was able to shop without the usual feeling of being policed by the loss prevention dept. So that was a plus, if i had more time to look around, the store seems to have a pretty good home decor dept. The store was in decent shape and pretty well organized, clean and be prepared to park nowhere near any of the multiple stores in the shopping center. It gets pretty busy midday.

While I was unloading my cart, the cashier asked if I needed a bag. Because she had her back turned to me and was not facing me, I had no idea she was speaking to me. She then turned around and asked again, and I said yes. From that point on, there was virtually no customer service. The cashier never greeted me, never made eye contact, and never acknowledged me. Instead, she carried on a conversation with a fellow employee while bagging my merchandise as if I wasn't even standing there. When she finished bagging my items, she placed the bag on the counter and waited for payment without telling me the total. There was still no eye contact and no communication. I finally asked, "Where is your customer service? At least you can tell me the balance." Her response was, "You can see the amount. I don't have to tell you." After I paid, there was no "thank you,and no acknowledgment whatsoever. I took my bag and immediately asked to speak with the manager because I found the interaction unprofessional and disrespectful. I understand retail employees have busy days, but basic courtesy, eye contact, and communication are fundamental parts of customer service. Customers should not feel ignored throughout an entire transaction. Associate number: 846315.

This was my first visit to Asher Goods as I've seen this shop before in downtown Kirkland. But…read morewhen my friend wanted to check this place out while we were in the area for Christmas shopping, I decided to tag along and am glad I did, as there was a lot to like at Asher Goods. Asher Goods specializes in men's apparel, with a Pacific Northwest twist. This location is in the Redmond Town Center on the lower level. Many of the items here are on the pricier side, but they're of high quality, like the Pendleton items. In addition to men's apparel, there were also accessories such as leather hats, belts, Yeti mugs, PNW stickers, etc. It's a good shop to get a great gift for the man in your life. Overall, this was a nice shop and would recommend stopping by if the outdoorsy, western style is your thing. But you're likely in Washington state anyway if you're reading this, so yeah, you'll like it.

The Bespoke Clothier completely changed how I think about fit. If you have a hard-to-fit body type,…read moreyou know how disappointing even "altered" clothes can be. I brought Gabriel a designer suit that still didn't feel right after store alterations. He was pretty honest--said the best it could become was a 7/10--and then went to work. He adjusted the shoulders, chest, sleeves, lapels, which required him to move every single button. It was literally a completely different suit. And for the first time, it actually fit the way it should. Since then, I've gone back for five custom suits, multiple shirts, and my favorite, an overcoat (which I'd avoided for years because of off-the-rack fit issues). Every item has come out perfectly tailored. If fit has always been a compromise for you, it's worth seeing what Gabriel can do. Adding some photos, but I'm not a fashion/textiles photographer. It's harder than it looks.

I've been looking for a place to get a proper suit made for a while. I consider myself a difficult…read morefit -- my chest measurement is at least 10 inches more than my waist. My posture is very upright and that just makes the chest issue even more difficult. There aren't many places in the US outside of New York that do real bespoke -- patterns cut from scratch. I'm glad I found Gabriel. He has a great understanding of classic men's style and proportions. The suit he made for me is very comfortable and continues to get better as the canvas takes the shape of my body. I keep looking for areas to make micro improvements for my next project with him. But to be honest, the fit is so good I'm not sure there's much to change other than experimenting with other styles, like a double breasted. I plan on commissioning something from him every year as long as I stay in Washington. The super tight, short jacket with the bum exposed, with skinny lapels was trending for a while on off the rack clothing. Even some made to measure places make suits like this. If you are looking for a suit to wear for the next 10 years, I encourage you to give Gabriel a try and have him make something timeless for you.

I can't say enough good things about Jeff and his attention to the details. I held off on reviewing…read moreuntil I got it pictures back from my wedding. I wound up changing a handful of small details such as the shirt I was wearing as our venue decorations changed so this isn't 100% the suit I got. Jeff's attention to detail though was fantastic and my changes certainly don't reflect on him or the quality of this suit which is impeccable. I spoke with a few bespoke suit places and Jeff just got my style the best. While other suits were beautiful, I think the small details Jeff payed attention to and some of his designs for the more modern person. Pockets for days! Jeff was super friendly, accommodating and helpful. My lady requested a swatch of fabric to help tie together the Father's and best man's suit with mine and he was able to accommodate. All in all...I highly suggest giving Jeff a try. He was great and look forward to the next one.

The "funny" thing is I was wearing one of the suits I purchased from him in 2008. Still fits great. I wore a different sport coat and slacks into the office earlier this week from closer to 2006 and my office mates thought I got new clothes. They might cost more than an off-the-rack suit but I promise you that once you wear a custom suit, shirt or slacks you won't want to go back. And of course the cost per wear is pretty low after almost 20 years. And they aren't being removed from my closet. Jeff is super personable and not pushy. He knows his stuff and you'll look great and feel great because looking good is feeling good.
