I really love coming to Zara, especially since they don't have one in St. Louis. They have lots of…read moretrendy options for affordable prices, and I always seem to find something that is unique to me. This Zara in particular is superrrrr busy, to the point where it's almost uncomfortable to shop. I respect that it comes with the location, but I think it would be beneficial to cap the amount of customers coming in and create a waiting area. That might sound excessive, but we had to leave since we couldn't find a space to look at what was on the racks. I would have probably purchased something if I would have had a bit of breathing room. Hoping my next trip here is a bit easier to shop :)

We needed a lunch spot near Water Tower and this turned out to be the perfect spot to dine…read more Unfortunately, my friend and I had our tweens lunching with us so we didn't get to do much shopping here...but it looks like they had some gorgeous, unique pieces. I plan on being back in the area later in the week and can't wait to check it out! As for lunch, or Sunday brunch, we started with a warm fresh baguette. I went with avocado toast for my meal, which hit the spot as it always does. I've had my share of avocado toasts in my lifetime and this was a good one. My daughter also really enjoyed her chicken flatbread. It was huge so when it first came out I thought she could have shared it with her friend, but she was super hungry and it was really tasty so she did a pretty good job eating it on her own. Service was fast and attentive and (again) my only regret is not getting to do more shopping...I'll be back!

We were only in Chicago for 3 days and we managed to come to Alice & Wonder twice…read more Before our trip my friend Heidi had been sending us Tiktoks about going to Alice & Wonder to get our souvenir hat, you actually pick a hat of your choice and add some cute little patches, so I was really excited even though I cannot wear hats, my head size does not allow for it unfortunately. But I was able to get a couple of patches that I'm going to patch on to my book tote. The team here was super sweet, they make sure you like the placement of the patches before pressing them on, my friends made some really cute hats that I'll have to get photos. I ended up getting a hotdog patch that said Chicago and a spicy patch, a pair of socks and magnet, they give you cute little tote bags so you can shop throughout the city and add more to it. Really good value I think, they did say I can press it onto my beret at home instead so I might do that with one of the patches. Definitely a must check out, this location was a 10 minute walk from our hotel but there are a couple of other locations as well.

I know it's not a big deal, but it kind of ruined my experience. Came in on a Monday evening around 6:30, they're not many people in the store so I kind of enjoyed a little more as I am a more relaxed shopper and get more anxiety with a lot of people running around. I had to return a sweater and I went to browse a few items to use for the remaining balance of my gift card, a very nice woman help me pick out a few options that she thought we might look good with the clothes that I already had in my hand. She had also gotten me a fitting room, but I had to ask the other employees for help with the fitting as she was more on the floor sales -which is totally totally fine. Finally found a dress that I liked and checkout was fine but I live in Chicago, so I definitely should know that there is a bag tax. I just totally forgot and definitely wouldn't have taken the bag if they would have said something.

This Nordstrom Rack is smaller than a lot of other ones. It's two stories, but the first floor is just luggage and small accessories like gloves and the second floor has the standard departments, just seemed a smidge smaller. I was chuffed to see they had a particularly large big foot shoe section and also very happy that there was nothing I was so desperate for that I needed to spend any money. I'd come back but it's not very convenient, so I don't know that I'll be back anytime soon.

After purchasing, My cashier Sylvia decides after her subpar customer service, that she was going to chase me down the elevator and embarrass me in front of other customers because I didn't put a shopping cart back!! She threatened to call security on me, (as I was walking away from her) she got into my personal space and was using a very loud tone that I wasn't comfortable with. She treated me as if I were a thief, called me pathetic, and told me I was inconveniencing everyone it was extremely humiliating. All I can do was look at her and ask her was she serious? I was in total shock and on the phone with my dad who whom I highly respect and he couldn't believe that this was a staff member speaking in such way. After I left I came right back to return everything! I refuse to spend my money for someone to chase and chastise me over a shopping cart after I spent my hard earned money there. Will not be back! I went to Aritzia and the customer service was way better, and I got a fabulous dress for my evening there instead.
