*DO NOT SHOP AT THIS STORE*…read more It's in a run down little strip shopping center in a run down part of town. We go in and I tell them I have a faja ordered already being custom made, so I want a waist trainer. The ladies behind the counter tell me no I need a faja for compression. I told them that I already knew that and just needed a quick something until the next week when my faja came in. They kept telling me no and measured me for a faja. They gave me the size they measured me for and I couldn't try it on due to Covid and the dressing rooms being down. I go home and try to put it on, but I can't. It doesn't even go past my knees. I return to the store and tell them this. They try to give me a bigger size, which still doesn't work. They tried to then help me with a waist trainer like I originally asked for. When I pick that out they then tell me that I can exchange the faja for the waist trainer. There is about a $70 difference though. They told me I could have store credit for the rest. I told them, no I want my money back. I never even wanted the faja. I should've been sold the waist trainer in the first place. I needed up setting all their merchandise back on the counter and told them I no longer wanted anything from their store and just want my money back. They told me no they don't do refunds. So we left the store with nothing and we're out $150. *DO NOT SHOP AT THIS STORE* The exchange offered also did not fit. It was 2 sizes bigger than what was originally measured in store. So clearly I never even put on the first one. Also, they put in a protective lining, that way it can be exchanged. That means they are going to be putting it back on the shelf anyways.

I just bought a cute bag yesterday for $26 that is a fake leather satchel with some silver studs on it. It is now going to be my everyday summer purse! Just like most places on Harwin it is a bit overwhelming upon entry and it is hard to decide what looks good and what looks cheap. Give the bag a good look and mostly if the fake leather is not super shiny then you are good to go. They also have a great selection of evening bags for special occasions. It is my go to when I have a wedding or cocktail party to attend.

I was looking through and found these MOTHER SUPREME and I looked at their website, it was valued at like $395, these jeans are right here and cost $95 marked down. so if you look through, you may find some really good unique pieces that are decently priced in comparison to buying brand new. but keep in mind, this isn't thrifty, its sophisticated.

My diagnosis: my favorite store in Houston where you never know what you may find.

Fun table decor, too. They have both "knock-offs" and real deal items... you can either ask the staff or just know your stuff. I've been shopping there long enough to know the staff: I find them friendly, very honest, and helpful. Those who take offense at the young ones working there are easily offended... they're young and inexperienced, trying to gain experience there. Jeepers, just smile and ask for what you need! They jump right in. Fun RO spot.

I think the prices are reasonable given the style-quotient and but people who are game for ferreting out bargains on Harwin may find this place over-priced. In addition to jewelry, they carry Lilly Pulitzer paper accessories as well as Adler notepads. There is also a selection of shoes (think espadrilles) near the back of the store. AB definitely has an upper-class vibe but not in an obnoxious way. The salesgirls all seem to be cute girls from the River Oaks area and are friendly but not intrusive. You can browse and try on pearl necklaces, headbands and sparkly earrings to your hearts content!

In the ashes of Hemline, a new Em & Lee has sprung up. Hemline is still about, it's just moved…read more I really like Em & Lee. If you're looking for a last minute dress, top, shoes, or scarf for your night out, avoid University Drive and just head here. The clothes are affordable, but aren't genera-hip (ie bland) like some other, cheaper shops a block over. You're not really going to run into someone else with the exact same dress. And you're not going to be wearing much polyester. The cotton to poly-fiber ratio is about 5:5 here which is saying something, especially since the clothes are relatively inexpensive and relatively well-made. Again, this sounds mildly negative, but last minute is last minute and I wouldn't want you to waste your time either paying too much or getting a sub par outfit somewhere else. In fact, the last time I was here, I almost got a really cute, yet edgy strapless dress. Creamy white with a graphic silver, gold, and bronze pattern, and a fullish, layered skirt. Super cute, but I'm not certain how chilly or blazing hot New Years is going to be. Hmm. There are now five Em & Lee shops in town. Of the ones I've been to, including West Grey, I like this one the best. It's the warm wood interior. I'm not certain if that's left over from Hemline, but well, it's more inviting. Also, there were no sixteen year old River Oaks prima donna wannabes flitting about.

A girl's gotta maintain her image and her checkbook. Em & Lee was a great solution for cute cocktail dresses at a reasonable price. I came here upon the recommendation of Allie N. and I'm glad I listened! I had previously spent a bit of time browsing the sales racks of various stores (both department and independent retail shops) and couldn't find anything under $100 and wasn't skankified. I purchased a pale pink/nude-toned dress that was a poly-chiffon. It had a rouched top with a pleated skirt. It was $76 (regular price!) and an appropriate length. They also have a variety of cute tops and casual dresses. It's trendy but not too much. Although, the sizing is more like junior sizing so you may find yourself in between sizes. I appreciate the coupons they have on their website and facebook page. I got $10 off of my purchase because of that.
