I purchased my wedding dress a year prior to my wedding from an Australian designer. I had sent in…read moremy measurements to the designer, and when I received the dress in return, i tried it on. Although the dress I received was far too tight around the hips, I stowed it in the back of my closet and said I would worry about alterations when my big day got closer. Fast-foward 9 months, and after taking the dress to 3 different well-regarded tailors in Los Angeles, all of whom said there was little they could do to the dress and still maintain its original design aesthetic, a friend recommended Laura to me. Laura and her team are MAGICIANS. They performed minor surgery to add more room in the hips and thighs, a feat which was nothing sort of miraculous. I can't thank Laura and her team enough for their brilliant work!!

After exclaiming about the price she told me to go somewhere cheap like the cleaners across the street. Rude. Then she showed me some over-the-top wedding gown explaining "this" is the type of alterations she does. Wasn't relevant. I wasn't there to get a wedding gown altered.

Once we determined my season and contrast she offered a lot of advice on how to pair different colors together, wear jewelry, and to do makeup styles to create a harmonious look with my features. She even took a look at some pieces of clothing I brought from home and gave recommendations on how to style them, even if they were not in my exact color palette. I would 100% recommend anyone to work with Ioana and will be raving about her to my friends!

My GF and I decided to get bracelets together (lame right, I know) so we searched and found a local…read moresmall business shop called XIVSTV. Queenie (the owner) responded quickly and was able to provide her availability. We actually reached out to her on Instagram but she tends to get busy so maybe try reaching out via the phone # on Yelp. Options are endless. It was hard for us to decide since there were almost 20 different chains. I think she has more gold than silver but still a good amount to choose from. The gold that we decided on were perfect. To top it off, it was a super quick process and turned out very nicely. We're glad it didn't take too long since we hate awkward conversations/silences. Definitely recommend if you are thinking about permanent jewelry. It's also a little cheaper than other places if that helps.

I wear it every day, and it doesn't appear to be tarnish- or shine-prone. She did advise me to use caution if I used excessive force or worked with chemicals. It has been pretty durable with everything that I do. I recommend this to anyone that's looking for a durable, versatile, and affordable piece of jewelry that will not tarnish over time.

I did not buy a single thing. It was fun to try things on (and the girls working there were nice especially when considering they could have been completely snobbish), but overall, it felt like I paid $175 for a shopping montage rather than a store where I would actually buy something. Maybe that's my fault, but I expected more items for $2k or less. My mom liked a few things (all super expensive) and one particular dress, but it was a whopping 4k, and we didn't like it THAT much. Also, my mom who is a size 0 was thriving here, but as a size 4, I felt okay about my options. If you're larger than a size 6/8, probs not the right place to spend your time unless you find something super cute on their insta. Vintage sizing is teeny tiny!

We're college film students and one of the most difficult things to manage is period accurate costumes on a broke student budget. Donna was helpful, flexible, friendly, and generous. She has an insanely huge collection. As someone who's looked into many vintage store and rental places, this is the one to go to. My friends and I kept saying we wanted to film a period piece just to be able to rent these costumes. Will definitely be telling all my film friends about this place!
