I dropped off several items in great condition and the staff…read moreperson (who may have been the owner?) told me it would take her about a week to assess the items and send me a contract. After ten days and receiving no follow up whatsoever, I stopped in the store. I was told by the sales girl that she wasn't the manager/owner and had no ifnformation. She took my phone number and said the owner will call me. Another two weeks has passed, I have stopped in again and sent three email inquiries (because they don't answer the phone) to no avail. My clothes are gone, I have nothing to show them, including no idea if they were donated to a charity that could at least get them in the hands of people in need. What a terrible, unprofessional business this is.

They answered the first time and said the shoes were sitting on the back counter and they would mail out immediately. For the next 4 weeks, I have called over and over again.

I came in recently to get permanent bracelets done with my friend and we had a great experience…read more Even before going in I appreciated that prices were listed on the website so I knew what to expect and could browse options. We spent a few minutes looking at the clothes and other jewelry for sale and they had some really cute stuff, and prices seemed pretty reasonable especially for a small boutique. The highlight was definitely the woman who did our bracelets, she was so friendly and helpful and really made it a fun experience. They have a decently sized collection in both silver and gold, along with little charms you can add which I recommend! We walked in and had no wait on a Sunday afternoon, but apparently it can get busy so you may want to make a reservation.

I have been curious about Winifred Grace for some time; it's in the neighborhood but I've never…read morereally had a chance (or found the parking) to visit. But I've followed on Instagram and they have some beautiful jewelry, and I love jewelry, so I stopped in today whilst waiting for my coffee order at The Coffee Studio to be ready. The staff were nice; I was greeted immediately upon entering. I did get there as they were opening, so it was just me and the three employees. I wandered around for ten minutes or so. They have some beautiful merchandise for sure, and work with local artists as well as those further afield for their jewelry (at the very least). They carry pieces from at least half a dozen artists. Most of it is gold, and I'm not a fan of gold but they had a few silver pieces that interested me and I may be back for. The clothing was a skip for me, since I'm not sure they carry anything above a size four or so. They also had some clips/hair bands/head bands, and why did I spend a ridiculous amount on these? Because they're beautiful, I guess. I think what originally brought WG to my attention is that they do permanent jewelry. I'm really intrigued by this so I've checked into the places I know do it in the city. WG has particularly beautiful chains, and they have a variety of charms from red which to choose (I like the mama one now that I can call myself that!). I need to look at price and confirm that this is where I want to do permanent jewelry... but I think I might be back for that. As a word to the wise, the employee told me that I could come and do it as a walk in, but they recommend appointments on the weekend because it can be very busy. There's nothing but street parking around here, and it's not in the busiest part of Andersonville where there's more parking. There's some street parking on the surrounding streets, and don't forget about Ashland or as far north as Victoria and whatnot up by Gethsemane, which also has a short metered portion.

I went to Uma Sarees after trying a few other stores on Devon unsuccessfully, and she totally…read moreturned my day around. I've never been to an Indian wedding or worn traditional Indian clothes, and I was looking for a lehenga for a friend's wedding. I tried other stores, but couldn't find anything that fit (I'm a US 10-12 with a large bust), and they kept suggesting the same size tops which I literally struggled to get on, let alone zipped. I left feeling dejected, but when I walked into Uma's shop she was immediately warm, helpful, and honest. She let me know buying a lehenga off the rack would be difficult because they are smaller sizes with no stretch, and recommended a saree instead. She was funny and honest without making me feel shame about my body. She helped me find a fabric I loved and taught me how to wrap it. Only thing to note--I initially told her 100-150 budget and the saree ended up being 200+ including the top and the petticoat, so just be aware that the saree price doesn't include the other items necessary to wear it.
