Take your chances coming here. They might be closed without any notice for a "store meeting". They…read morerandomly close sections when they are pissed at employees who are responsible for said sections (the Book area was closed for several months because apparently the employee who was supposed to organize it didn't satisfy the owner). Today half of the store was sectioned off and unavailable, limiting their stock to less than half of what they have. Signs say that this is due to "reorganization", but employees have no information as to when it will be opened up and shoppers can only look at half of the store across barricaded pathways. I've never been at a store that can't manage inventory reorganization during off hours, especially given the amount of store closures this location has due to staff meetings (which I've also never seen a retail store be closed for). It's super frustrating that the store can't get their act together. Every "improvement" comes at the cost of customer convenience. It's honestly like the owner has never worked in a retail environment before. I keep trying to find things to like about this store, as it used to be one of my absolute favorites. Needless to say, they're making it incredibly hard to find reasons to come here. Side note: the staff are the only redeeming aspect of the store.

I took a skirt off a mannequin and she screamed in the middle of the store. "Did you take something off this mannequin?" I said "yes Im sorry I took the skirt" She proceed to say in a cocky and condescending tone " don't EVER TAKE anything off a mannequin before telling me first". I was embarrassed and mortified. I have been in thrift stores, antique, and consignment shops all across the world and I never have walked out of one until now. This is my first bad review I have ever wrote but that's how bad my experience was. I put all the items in my hand down and walked out. This is a beautiful place with a horrible individual behind the counter. Take your business elsewhere.

Also, the customers all wear their masks which is actually amazingly cool. "Sister" has some really great stuff! And once, I saw a "date" happen at the store which I thought was endearing. Parking is hard, so be kind.

I wanted to let you know about the heartwarming experience we had Dao Tailor…read more My daughter purchased a beautiful dress from Vows last year for her wedding. Sadly just a few months before her wedding it was cancelled. My daughter was flying in for a scheduled fitting with Dao and on top of finishing her fitting properly with no rush to pick up her dress when completed, Dao gave her a discount as well as bestowing my daughter lovely, kind words of wisdom and encouragement and told her that she was meant for someone better and this cancellation was just the way to make room for it to happen . As a mom we don't expect anyone else to love and care for our kids like we do. This was such an unexpected blessing to a very difficult time. Dao is extraordinary tailor and human. We will never forget this kindness

My friend and I both had our wedding dresses tailored with Dao (without knowing the other was…read morecoming here too!). In general, there will be 3 appointments spaced out over a couple months. Surprisingly, the appointments are not very long. The first appointment, I wore the dress and Dao immediately told me a list of things she needed to fix (things that I am clueless about so I cannot verify if true or not) and provides a quote/invoice. The second appointment is a double check. The final appointment was my longest one as I asked her to make a small tweak, which she did on the spot. I did notice that the dress felt more supportive and structured on the last visit due to the work she did (adding boning etc). She usually has one other associate working in the shop and together, they are extremely good at hyping you up as you try on the dress. Cost wise, my friend and I both spent about $1K each on our dresses. In summary, Dao is very confident in her skills and vision and it is clear she has a lot of experience in wedding dresses as her entire shop is lined with wedding dresses. PS. My friend looked STUNNING on her wedding day - the dress fit like a glove and was so flattering. She told me you can take the dress back after your appointments if you need more work. PPS. There is free street parking.
