The first table that got my attention was the Father's Day gift. So many items that one could grab for their favorite dad. Whether lighters, mugs, Cubs books or candles so many items. They even had fancy bbq sauce combo kits. This store offers custom pillows to commemorate weddings, births, etc... The price seemed really reasonable. So many different items available for purchase such as gifts, home decorations, candles, party planning, jewelry, clothing and sunglasses. I purchased a pair of sunglasses and earrings. I also had my eye on this umbre hot pink scarf. Store rep was friendly, advised of new customer 10% coupon on highest priced item. She also recommend dining in the nearby neighborhood. Thanks for the MAKs suggestion.

This store is my crack. No, seriously. I'm bummed that it's in Oak Brook, but at the same time…read moreglad it's in Oak Brook. Because if it were in the city, I'd be broke. I LOVE sassy, sarcastic cards and this place is loaded with some of the best I've ever seen. I especially love the style of cards with an vintage picture and a smartass saying, and they've got tons. Anne Taintor, Curly Girl, and more. I loaded up on cards, magnets, etc. I mean, who doesn't want a card that says, "What's wrong with my attitude, it matches my outfit?" Love. It. It was so hard to stop. Awesome cards + great and quirky gifts = my heaven. I can't wait to return!!

First time here! Such a well organized, visually appealing store!…read more It's October currently and this store was very fall! Everything was super on trend. They have tons of teenage and women's clothing options, home goods, and Knick knacks. There is tons to look at and it is so beautifully organized and well placed. Pricing is on the higher side but for how well everything was displayed, organized, the quality of items, selection, and the area we are in, it seems about right.

Apparently I showed up on day 8 and had to accept a crappy paper receipt as a store credit instead of a money back refund. I honestly don't know if I'll even use the credit knowing how shitty the return policy is . I'll be reluctant to shop here again out of principle . The sweeter I returned was so cheap and shapeless. Even though it's more expensive, the quality of the clothing and the much friendlier policies make Evereve the better option all day long .

What an interesting shop! It is filled with unique artisan items and/or antiques. Major Americana!…read moreLots of varying types of home decor with a wide range of pricing. Most of the items I looked at and checked pricing on were way out of my budget, but some were more affordable. When I'm looking seriously at finishing touches for some of the rooms in my house, I wouldn't mind returning. I'm not personally into Americana, but there were other little hidden gems that definitely piqued my interests. You could seriously look around for a loooong time with the number of items in this shop. Despite the quantity, it didn't feel cluttered or dusty, so it is well kept up and has a nice layout. They are in the process of moving to another location still in Hinsdale, so heads up for that.

I usually come from Chicago to the burbs to knockout shopping in one area. This strip mall that…read moreUncharted is located in meets this need. I happily stumbled upon Uncharted as I ventured the strip. At first I was rather overwhelmed and had sensory overload from al the cuteness, but quickly became familiar with the store after doing an initial walk thru. They have a nice selection of clothes and carefully curated items. I appreciate the variety and can see my wallet hurting if I brought my teen and tweenage girls. Last but not least, they had the Swedish gummy pop up selling at a great price. You bet I took advantage of that! I will definitely come back with my girls and maybe a mom's only shopping trip.

I now have been to this location two times. Each time I really like the clothing and the selection…read moreof items. Quite a diverse store and very nicely laid out. However, the first time, several months ago i checked my receipt before leaving and was overcharged by $15. I also noticed that there was nobody in the whole store to help me. No one on the floor. Somebody was at the register and no one was around to let me in a dressing room which they keep locked. The staff behind the counter did not seem very knowledgeable with their products or questions I had. So then I returned today for a second time only to find the same problems. I had to walk up to the cashier and ask if someone can let me in the dressing room. She had to leave the register to let me in. Again, where are the people on the floor? Once I did find someone on the floor ... I asked about sizing, I explained to the sales woman that the smalls that I tried on were huge. She seemed to stare me up and down and said "well you know the style now is for things to be oversized". Excuse me? First of all I'm fully aware of that but I'm 5 foot tall and 115 pounds and there's a difference between oversized and falling off me. I had to repeat this to her 2 to 3 times and then I started to think why am I explaining myself to her? Why can't she just give me an answer or find my size? Then she gave me the wrong information. I was told an item could be ordered in an extra small then when I got to the counter, at checkout, the cashier said it could not be ordered but she had no idea why. I asked her well, can I order it? She said "I don't know". And then she told me again that she doesn't know the reason why she can't order it. She never offered to call a manager or to escalate the issue to find out. I went on the website as I was standing at the register to try to find the item and she was of absolutely no assistance to even help me find the item on the website. When I got my receipt, I didn't understand some charged items and I never got a separate receipt for the one item that she ordered to have shipped to me. Then she told me I should get an email. I never got the email. Then she told me to snapshot a screen of the order number. And then what? She had no information on how the shipping even worked. She had no clue. The worst part about it just like the first time in that store the employees didn't seem to care. My first and second time was not with the same staff member, but my experience was the same. So I asked for the manager. The manager was helpful but why should I have to ask for a manager? The manager couldn't figure out either why I did not get a receipt or a confirmation of my item that was ordered so she said she would call me tomorrow. She said she wanted to look into what the problem was. I found it all quite strange. It seems like the store staff is unmotivated don't care and are not properly trained. They're also not very friendly ( aside from the manager). So I really do like the items in the store, but in my experience, the customer service is severely lacking. It's too bad because it's a nice store, however seems poorly managed. Oh, and not to mention the part where an employee knocked on my dressing room door, wondering when I'm going to come out as another person had to use the dressing room. I understand that there's only two dressing rooms, but I brought a ton of stuff in with me because of the great trouble it takes to go back-and-forth and finding someone to open it.

FANTASTIC FLORAL ARRANGEMENT!…read more I found Hinsdale Flower Shop via a Yelp search, as I needed to order flowers for my auntie's birthday. I navigated straight to their website and found it so simple to browse the site. I went to the occasions -- birthday page and found the perfect arrangement. I ordered some cut flowers in a simple vase, the arrangement is called "Brighten Your Day." I got the standard one ($59 + $15.95 delivery to Woodridge). The description on the site is as follows: "With an abundant array of bright red, yellow and purple flowers, this arrangement is sure to brighten your day. Roses, alstroemeria, asters, carnations and chrysanthemums are delivered in a cheerful clear glass vase." Apologies for not getting an actual photo - my aunt is not very technology-savvy so I had to use the photo from their website. The flowers were, indeed, very cheerful! My auntie was very pleased. I got an email confirmation immediately after she received them Had no issues with the order so I did not need to contact the shop. A++++!
