    Another Glance is a consignment thrift store on the corner of a vaguely run down street. To give an…read moreidea, there's a burnt down house down the road. But going the other direction, some nicer houses. Several mannequins line the windows in a pleasing display of colors and patterns. Inside is relatively small, but orderly, with the space maximized with shelf displays and purses high up on the wall. Two large windows bring in natural light. The racks of clothing inside are shoppable, and not over stuffed. They are mostly all women's clothes, arranged by broad categories such as pants and t-shirts. The demographic skews a bit towards the stylish older woman: waterfall cardigans, Vera Bradley purses, comfortable shoes. Good condition clothes, from quality value brands like Uniqlo, to mid range department store brands like Style & Co, to some gems, like from Garnet Hill or Marmot. Prices might be a little more than Goodwill, but the clothes are in better condition than the Goodwill down the street on Mt Vernon road. The designs are also a nicer selection with some fashionable embroidery, cheerful prints, and perhaps a few items in better fabrics like cashmere. And even better when there's a 50% sale on select categories. The lady at the cashier is welcoming, and willing to engage in conversation. She allowed me to look through the corner section of unpriced items and offered to price some on the spot. There are three fitting rooms painted bright pink. The rule is to leave the garments in the fitting room after you try them on. The doors are unusually high though so I was hesitant to try on pants because I hadn't shaved my lower legs because yknow, winter. If you're thinking about consigning clothes to this shop, call ahead as it may be full and not accepting more as space is limited. I recommend checking out this thrift store. Even though maybe the location isn't the most inviting, the actual shopping experience was comfortable and pleasant.

    I was tempted to buy my fiancé's engagement ring online as I knew the options had to be much better…read moreboth in selection and in price than anything you could find at a traditional jewelers. I am so very grateful that I was directed to check out H.L. Art Jewlers, however, as they took an existing design that I had fallen in love with online, pointed out some potential weak points in the design (without being pushy or arrogant) then proceeded to work with me closely for the next couple of weeks finding all fo the stones and finalizing details of the ring. Deb delivered an exceptional ring under budget (she easily could have charged me commission and filled the gap but instead passed the savings on to me), and was kind and professional throughout the whole process. In the end I got a much better ring than I would have purchased had I gone with the original design online. I will absolutely recommend H.L Art to anybody who asks. Quality service with the reliable relationship that can only be experienced through in-person deals.

    I visited this store to look for a 3 stone setting. What I found was significantly over-priced with…read moresmall, lab grown diamonds and a thin gold band for around $5000. The owner of the store asked me what I was looking for and I told her, gave her my (very reasonable) price range and she said to give her a few days to find me something and she would be in touch. I'm the meantime, she gave me her personal cell number to send pictures and info to of what I was looking for so she could be my "personal jeweler". After sending a total of 4 texts that included one picture and descriptions of what I was looking for, I was completely blown off and it's now almost a month later and she didn't even acknowledge a single text. And yes, I double checked that I had messaged the correct number before leaving this review. In the meantime, I ordered a custom piece from another jeweler. I have already received it and the price was lower than the range I gave this owner. I went to this store because I had purchased from it 20+ years ago and was very happy with my experience. Unfortunately, it is no longer the same owner as it was back then.

    I went to Kay's to shop for an engagement ring. I was greeted by someone whom asked me what I was…read morelooking for and I advised her. She then took me to the wedding bands. Now I can get over new people and mistakes but since the entire experience was horrible I mention it even though it is petty. So when I got to the rings I picked out a couple and at this point is when the lay away battle started. The lady asked me 4 different ways to put the ring on layaway at which point when she saw that I wasn't going to she got another lady who asked me and said she couldn't guarantee the price without a layaway and other things to pressure me into layaway the ring. Then another guy came over and it started all over. 15 times was the total of times I was asked, pressured and pleaded to layaway this ring. I did not bc I wanted to shop around. I went to another Kay's different city different results. They offered the exact same ring for 75.00 cheaper and no pressure told me if I came back by the end of November they would give me the same price. Definately don't recommend this store.

    I went there to buy my girlfriend a ring I had two picked out already from online and when I asked…read moreabout those two the lady tried to sell me a different one and half the questions I asked her she had to ask the other lady, at the end of my hour long trip I left empty handed they had no answers and pretty much told me it would be easier online since thats the same way they were going to do it
