I have driven past this store for a few years now and I finally decided today was the day I would…read moreget out and explore it.
Good- It reminds me of the boutiques you see while walking through the French Quarter in New Orleans. Very eclectic and uniquely artistic. They have bright neon colored decor and flamboyant 1/2 mannequins with full makeup on dripping in costume jewelry. I was mesmerized more by the way the store was presenting its wares, than the actual products themselves.
I saw a couple of super cute, but expensive jackets, and a beautiful tie- dyed tube dress. They have Miss Me jeans, cute sun dresses, and lots of interesting items, that you are sure not to find everywhere.
Bad- It looked kind of hit or miss with the offerings. I was in the store a good five minutes or so, before anyone even bothered to muster up a greeting, and it was half hearted at that. Almost as if, she could hardly be bothered.
Hey, everyone has an off day, but if even you don't want to be in there, who will? Maybe they could use some fun music to liven the place up.
Unfortunately, the entire experience was worthy of only 2.5 stars, but that's not an option.
Ugly- Nothing bad to report although, I will say this store would fare much better in Austin. It is certainly not going to appeal to everyone, as it seems a bit outlandish with a few designers I have seen do well in Europe. The sheeple that like all things beige and typical of Woodland's mall attire, may struggle to find something that fits in with their crowd.
Personally, I think it would be fun to dress up like some of the mannequins. I really liked their neon colored tutus. They were down right cute! This of course is coming from a die hard NOLA fan and people are just more funky and fun there.
