Designer Revival is a very expensive consignment shop. I have looked at the prices and decided I…read morerather just buy new than pay the price for used. I'm sure if you are able to spend the time returning and returning as items are marked down you may get the item you set your sights on for a decent price. I'm sorry but life is too short for me to spend my time on designer clothes. I do enjoy looking and I recommend you check it out if you are in the neighborhood and enjoy second hand shops.

A friend took me here, first time coming in, prices were ok - the person working here had an…read moreattitude though when I had asked a question. The selection was ok, service was lacking. I suppose that was the only downside of my interaction here. Aside from that, I had a good experience. Just don't rely on the service when it comes to the selection of things they have.

This place is hit-or-miss, much like any thrift store is, but it almost feels like this store takes…read morethe concept to the max. One of the most appealing things this place offers is a rack outside of the store which offers $5, $10, and $15 clothes, no hidden strings. But if you don't find anything suitable there, then you have to go hunt inside the store. The store is scented with some kind of perfume and offers a curtained area that you can walk into to change. The majority of the clothes inside the store are actually fairly normally priced, so if you don't find anything outside, you're not really gonna get any deals otherwise.

On a more personal note, I visited Albertine three times before deciding to feature it on The Boutique of the Week, not because I was wary of the selection, but the price is higher than my norm. However, Albertine truly is too good to pass up and is the perfect place to splurge and treat yourself to an amazing piece (or two, or three...). The jewelry is the best feature of Albertine and will have you coming back just to drool over it. The exquisitely edited collection is priced from $100 to a steep $1,000+. The beautiful vintage pieces are displayed in glass cases, but touching and dressing up is encouraged. Delicate necklaces share a wall with leather cuffs, and pendants of owls and horns share a case with a silver snake ring and jade earrings. Prices can only be found out from a large binder where handwritten notes and photos document the inventory. The womenswear boasts up-and-coming designers and custom-made pieces that are feminine and vintage-inspired ranging from $150-600+. Flowy fabrics in all colors can be found in floor-length silk gowns and highly-structured bomber jackets. The cozy store normally only has one or two sizes displayed, but the staff is happy to find you the perfect fit in the back. A Victorian couch faces a large mirror for ample viewing, and you can even sometimes find the owner's dog napping as the eclectically chic staff offers spot-on critiques and styling tips.
