A key to business success is setting customer expectations and having good customer communication…read more This business did neither. I called for information on Hunter Douglas shades and had a good talk with a woman here, after which we made an appointment for her and a technical person to come by the house a few days later to discuss details about how the mechanized shades work, and look at colors and fabrics.. About five minutes before the expected arrival that day I had a message saying "we" are running late but "we" expect to be there within 15 minutes. About 30 min later though, the doorbell rang and a man stood there. He did not introduce himself but his shirt was labeled "Hunter Douglas". I asked where the design person was with whom I had spoken and who had sent me that message. He didn't know. He came in and I asked if we should wait for her. He didn't know. No attempt to wear a mask or ask if I preferred he do so, and as he walked into the living room I saw he was wearing dirty tennis shoes as he walked on our Oriental carpet--no attempt on his part to remove or cover them. He was very terse (I could not tell if he was shy or upset about coming alone) but did the measuring. I asked what was going on, as I was expecting a designer to come with color books, fabric etc. He offered he had a color book in his car and could go get it, but I had expected to interact with a designer. He was in and out within five minutes. I called the shop, and another employee explained my contact was with a customer, and then, most oddly, proceded to explain to me what this other customer was asking about and was going to order. I stopped her as I wasn't interested at all in another person's order, said I had had a message that "we" were coming and who was this solo quiet man who turned up without ever giving his name even. I asked for my contact to call me back but was told they close at 2p and she would be leaving (heaven forbid they return a call past 2p apparently). I got the email address and sent off an email saying I found this all very unprofessional. I very well could understand running late with a client, but then why not call to say that and ask if we could re-schedule? But sending out this man alone, an employee who clearly was not at his best when speaking directly with customers and who didn't know what was going on even with his own workmate, was unacceptable. She had my email and phone number, but now five days later still no response. Very unprofessional and apparently don't like being called on it! The whole effect was very disorganized and unprofessional.

A Truly Extraordinary Boutique & An Even More Extraordinary Owner…read more I've been shopping at Karma for more than 15 years, and in all that time I've never encountered another boutique--or another human--quite like Phuni, the remarkable woman who owns and runs it. She is kind, inspirational, incredibly talented, and has an eye for style that feels almost magical. When I first wandered into Karma all those years ago, I remember thinking the clothes felt a bit expensive for me. What I quickly learned is that the quality is far beyond anything you find elsewhere. Every piece I've purchased has become something I wear joyfully for years. They hold up beautifully, they feel amazing, and I'm constantly stopped by people asking where I got them. Truly, each item ends up paying for itself in longevity and happiness. One of the best parts of shopping here is that Phuni knows me--my style, my size, what flatters me, and what will make me feel wonderful. She regularly brings me pieces I never would have even glanced at, and they end up being the exact things I fall in love with. Last year she suggested a jacket I never would've tried; I wore it - with a fabulous scarf and woven tote bag I also got at Karma, in NYC, snapped a rare selfie because it looked so good, and a woman on the subway stopped to tell me I looked adorable! Phuni also dressed me completely for the night before my daughter's wedding, and the outfit was so special. I continue to wear each piece with joy. In fact, I've asked my husband to skip the flowers for Mother's Day and my birthday-- instead I spend it at Karma. Shopping with Phuni is such a gift in itself. It's not just the clothing, either. I've found beautiful jewelry, scarves, bags, and truly meaningful gifts here. And what makes it even better is that Phuni sources everything she can ethically, sustainably, and through Fair Trade, supporting many women‑owned businesses, including artisans overcoming tremendous challenges such as sex trafficking. Her values are woven into every item she brings into the shop, and you can feel that integrity the moment you walk in. If you read her story (and you absolutely should), you'll understand why this place feels special from the inside out: https://www.cometokarma.com/about. Karma is one of my all‑time favorite places to shop, not just for the clothes but for the warmth, spirit, and generosity of the extraordinary woman behind it. If you're thinking of visiting, don't hesitate. You might walk in for clothes, but you'll walk out feeling seen, uplifted, and beautiful. Highly, highly recommended.

Phuni is amazing! She let me use her restroom. Her store looks amazing. Stop by now.read more
