Roberta's was fantastic! I went to another big name bra shop to find prosthesis after my double…read moremastectomy and my experience, at the big name shop was a 3 out of 10 and Roberta's stands out on the top compared 10/10 to the other big name shop that I was at. Carol the owner was wonderful to work with. I am a plus size gal, and she did everything possible to make sure I was comfortable. I never questioned her ability and she was never rude. The other big name shop is more convenient, but the drive to Roberta's was worth it.

I finally got the courage to go the 35 miles to Roberta's Lovely Ladies Boutique in Alton IL to buy…read morea double mastectomy bra and inserts. She was extremely rude, would not permit me to look around blocking me physically, and literally bullied me into leaving. She said she had decided to make appointments, and I did not have one, but nowhere on her website is that stated. Another woman and 2 friends were there, and I assumed I would wait until they were done, but she took me aside to see my insurance and empathically told me she could not take my insurance. I was stunned at her rudeness and the nasty things she was whispering to me all the while with a "smile" on her face (like "how dare you come into my business asking questions") smiling all the time so the other customers could not hear her. I was stunned silent listening to her abuse. I intended to pay for what she offered without insurance. She would not even allow me to look at the prosthetic devices. Who runs a business like that that requires a soft touch for women coming into seek help when a little extra softness is hoped for during a terrible time in our lives? I think it may be time for her to retire and let someone with a heart take over. Horrible experience and was totally unnecessary.

I love Refresh (5/5 specifically for their dresses). It's a beautiful secondhand clothing shop in…read moreBrentwood with a great cause!! (Proceeds go to St. Louis's foster care coalition--their HQ is also in this same building). They have a selection of normal clothes -- women's and men's -- on the bottom floor, along with shoes and accessories (earrings and jewelry). But what really stands out is their cute formal dress section on the second level! Perfect for prom, wedding guest, bridesmaid etc. They have floor length dresses for $35 and shorter dresses for $25. They even have a few floor length wedding gowns for brides for $100!! (Plus a section for mother of the bride dresses). I've gotten 2 formal dresses here so far with lots of compliments (wore one on a beachy vacation and another as a destination wedding guest)!! I visited again this week as I thought I'd look for a wedding dress here since they have super affordable options. I didn't end up finding a dress in my size since they only have a few but it was still really impressive they had some in stock at all! And at this price point. There were some beautiful dresses in smaller sizes as well with big princess-like ballgown-style trains. They also accept donations. You can either get a tax receipt or a $5 off coupon! The staff there have also been very friendly every time I've gone!! They have the store decorated currently for their prom season--girls who are in foster care who are accepted into their program get to shop for a prom dress for free! So cool!
