This is a classic example of short-term thinking of some small business owners. My wife has bought…read moreTHOUSANDS of dollars of clothing and jewelry at Happy over the years - we live on the Palisades and valued the design selection and sensibility of the store. With one purchase, a pair of black Paige jeans, my wife tried to return the jeans after a few weeks (we travel a lot internationally and this was one of those times). The owner was VERY unpleasant and unwilling to take the jeans back for a credit (we didn't want a refund since we shop there a lot). Bad customer service, poor human interaction (she was sarcastic and rude, rolling eyes, etc.). My wife was respectful and is very gentle person (she is a therapist and good w/people) and was shaking when she got back from the store, so upset at how she was treated. My wife still has another credit that she refuses to claim there from something else as she refuses to go in the store. Buyer beware - inflexible, rude service despite nice products.

Lemon of the Lulu, we've arrived to explore you…read more Popped in to this Palisades Village trendy staple to inquiry about some shirts bae saw online, but unfortunately they didn't have it. We did find something similar in a different style, but it was too small. It's a fun easy layout with space to move about, nice displays and main entrance off Sunset Blvd as well as more inland of this shopping mall. They have a good selection of fits in a variety of styles, tons of neutral tones, some solid bargains and all the fitness clothing + as well as fitness accessories, including water bottles. Athletic wear at it's finest as well as everyday clothes for men and women. We received a big greeting and a warm thank you while visiting. The girls at Lu Lu - Palisades Village were friendly and helpful. I don't think I've done much browsing or shopping at any Lululemon location but did note some quality outfits calling out to me.... Do I normal spend $118 on a stylish long sleeve shirt, $60 on some amazing gym shorts... No, but would I hear... I think I just might.

I hadn't been back to Pacific Palisades since the wildfires. When I found out that Palisades…read moreVillage was going to have a grand reopening, it was a good excuse to go back. The first thing that caught my eye were the charred mountains. Next, were buildings being reconstructed everywhere. It was heart wrenching. At the same time, it was hopeful. So many signs around Pacific Palisades are about being resilient. There are also mirrored sculptures that talk about being broken, but still here, still together. The reconstructed Village is elegant, clean, and beautiful. It truly feels like a welcome. You can tell that a great deal of effort was put into making this a celebration. So much was free: parking, food, drinks, postcards, keychain charms, even a lawn chair. There was a surprise jet formation flyby. It was my first time seeing a robotic dog in person. It was so weird. I wish they would put a head on it. It freaked at least one big, fluffy real dog the heck out. It freaked me out a little, too. They had guest speakers like Elyse Walker and Caruso himself, but it was too crowded for me to see anything and at one point the speakers cut out, so I couldn't hear anything either. As a result, most visitors just started chatting with each other. "Did your house burn down?" "Are you rebuilding?" "I'm glad things are starting to look hopeful again." If anything, that's what this reopening represented: Hope, rebirth, optimism. Update: I went back for the 8pm event where we didn't know what we were going to see. All they said was that it would blow our minds and it did. They had guests like Anthony Hopkins, Kate Hudson, OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder, and American Idol's Pia Toscano, along with a full orchestra and a drone show. Plus, the stage looked like a mini Hollywood Bowl, but everyone was close to the stage.

DO NOT SHOP ONLINE!!! False advertising of FREE RETURNS and GASLIGHTING by customer service aka…read more"concierge"! They included a letter stating free returns with my order and their website automated chat also stated that returns are free, but when I contacted customer service they said that was last year's policy and refused to honor. This is what the "concierge" wrote to me when I sent them a photo of the letter included with my order. "To clarify, the free return mentioned applies when you choose an exchange option. For returns processed as a refund to the original payment method, an $8 return fee is deducted, in line with our current returns policy. We understand how the wording may have caused confusion, and we truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention." Thanks for victim blaming and calling it my confusion, but free return is what the letter states. This is what their website AI agent states.. "US domestic customers: Use this portal to initiate a return and receive a free USPS label: https://aninebing.myshopify.com/apps/returns https://aninebing.myshopify.com/apps/returns. Simply click "Drop off at Post Office". Free returns and exchanges are offered for full-price purchases within 14 days of receiving your order, provided the merchandise is unworn and unwashed. " Even after emailing back and forth 5-6 times, the concierge wouldn't honor their advertised free return. Never again Anine Bing!!!

The space is bright and the selection is great. The concept is pretty cool-everything out is a sample, if you want to try something on, you let them know and your size magically shows up in the room. I ended up getting some pieces-they also put a "try me" dress in my exact size in the room. Why only 3 stars? The actual employee was SO meh. I didn't realize the concept going in, had to ask and zero guidance was given. No offers of help (I was the only one in there!) or guidance on anything. I'm a size 2/4 (25 jeans!) so I don't think it's size, like others mentioned. It was a totally flip from the service I received at Veronica Beard and Paige, where I went right after. Do better with your service, Ref!

Had to deal with her twice, when I first walked in to do a return and then when I was checking out.

I worked retail in my twenties and can't imagine pulling that kind of an attitude.

Such a fabulous shop!…read more The creativity is palpable the moment you walk in. The signs initially grabbed me with their cerulean blue. Then seeing the jewelry on the postcard sealed the deal. Her jewelry is exceptional and unique while still elegant in a way that's hard to find. The fabrics of clothes that she carrie's are luxury level. The cashmeres, knits & silks are saturated in rich hues and knotted with perfect intention. Come with the expectation of shelling out for quality goods and materials. I loved the scent of her candles and believe they ranged from $65 up. Highly recommend stopping in. The owner made me feel so welcome!
