I really like this store. It is definitely geared toward more mature age groups in its style and…read morefit. The closest comparison I have is Chico's, though this place is independent and the style is artsier. The pieces here are flattering and designed to be both fun but functional/practical, which I appreciate. I see a lot of pieces I think my mom would adore. That said I have, at 33, found that there is one brand there in particular - Ciara Sun Woo - that is ideal for young professionals and I have bought two of this designer's dresses on sale. They use high tech fabrics that are curve flattering and the perfect balance between clingy and drapey, and also they are super work appropriate but can often go day to night and come in nuanced solid colors. The prices on accessories are very reasonable and the clothing, while a little pricey, comes from smaller lesser known brands and they also have good sales. The staff is very friendly and helpful and it's never crowded so you can shop at a leisurely pace. The only flaw is is the location in the Metro mall and I worry about how well any of the businesses are doing in there. I never go into that mall anymore and sometimes forget this shop is there but when I do remember I think, "oh yeah! That place is great I should stop in." So if you're in Rosslyn check it out and support one of the few remaining small businesses in an increasingly corporate, sterile neighborhood.

Unfortunately, this business is closed…read more Update- the business is not closed, just moved upstairs in the sad mall at Rosslyn. Worth a look for stylish costume jewelry and some funky jackets and tops.

This thrift store is honestly such a hidden gem. Not only can you find amazing pieces -- from…read moreclothes to unique items -- but the money you spend goes toward a non-profit organization that rescues wild and domestic animals from cruelty, neglect, and lack of care. I think that's what makes shopping here so special. You're getting things you love while supporting a powerful cause at the same time. They also have a donation section if you want to give a little extra, which I definitely recommend. Overall, it's a great place doing great things -- definitely check it out!

Really cute little Korean clothing and accessories boutique!! I'm a fan of Korean style/aesthetic,…read moreand have always wanted to visit one of the little boutiques in Annandale, VA. I ventured in and was wooed to make several lovely purchases by the very attentive shopkeeper! One cool thing is that we discovered we have variants of the same surname! (My husband is half Korean.) It's a relatively uncommon Korean name, so that was pretty neat. I probably wouldn't have bought anything (the items were a bit pricey for my income), but Kum (the nice shopkeeper) gave me discounts after I asked if there were any sale items. I realized that you can definitely barter a bit, especially if it's your first time. They want to make you a repeat customer! I was surprised by the pretty leather handbags. They were a bit too expensive for me, but my eye was caught. They have a variety of colors and styles (more unique than you'll find at TJ Maxx). The clothing was interesting. A lot of the styles were not quite for me (intentionally loose blouses with pretty involved/sparkly patterns), but there were a few that I absolutely loved. I ended up getting two BEAUTIFUL flowy skirts, of very good quality. It's so hard to find delicately made, modest, beautifully worked skirts like these. I bought a blouse that has a lovely pattern (it's a fabric that Kum assured me is sought-after in Korea). I bought the loveliest little tulle scarf (they had a variety of colors...could have bought them all). Kum was constantly checking on me as I was trying things on and brought me tops and bottoms based on what I'd picked out. As a former sales associate for a women's boutique, I can tell you that this strategy WORKS and is actually appreciated by customers who just want a little encouragement (and a little pampering, if I'm being honest!). She even brought me some bold kitten heels...that cracked me up! But I was actually considered some black-and-white striped ones...and I never in a million years would have tried them on without her suggestion. I also bought something I never thought I'd buy...stylish tennis shoes. They're absolutely adorable (see the photo I posted). They were thoughtfully displayed in the fitting room stall (brilliant marketing move, putting attractive handbags and a variety of shoes in there to catch your eye!). They look like they're emulating a designer (I'm not in the know enough to know which one) and are super cute. Kum asked me how I'd found her shop. I had seen a few Korean boutiques while getting amazing authentic Korean comfort food, and did a simple search on Apple Maps for "Korean apparel." There are several other boutiques in the area which I look forward to perusing. She said she would love to attract more visitors who aren't Korean. I told her that I agreed, that I thought lots of ladies would love her store. She asked if I could leave a review and I enthusiastically assented! Visit this store if you want to spend an afternoon imagining what it would be like to shop in Korea! Don't worry...prices are displayed in USD, not Korean won. ;) There's something for everyone here, and I bet you'll be asked where you found your purchase!

After a short amount of time we were approached by one of the owners in case we needed assistance. I did not need assistance and neither did my wife. Still, we appreciate the offer. I saw one outfit I liked, but my wife doesn't wear skirts or dresses. Something she picked up from her mother. Nevertheless, I liked the dog picture, but will have to imagine someone else wearing in my mind. Guess I will put it on one of my characters, but I digress. There are other items I this store and I only got a glimpse of what is sold here. Still, the staff was friendly and I will pay another visit to this store. I might just find something I could use next time.

The other was almost micromanaging where I was looking (not much space to walk anyways). They had clothes all over the walkway and just staring at me as I was trying to get thru to go look at the dish section. I wasn't sure if that was an area open to customers, I clearly looked confused. Neither were helping me, just looking at me like I'm in the wrong area haha. Anyways, I asked if they were open or if I was able to squeeze by. She says, "yes we are open, there was no one here so that's why we're doing this". No one is in any hurry to move anything out of the way so I can walk by... it was just a massive pile. She then just shoves it all to the side with her foot and the one lady just looks annoyed and points me to walk thru quickly.... I'm just confused with this whole situation. I've never been to a store where they acted this way. I won't be back because of this weird interaction, just made me feel unwelcome. Selection is small as well, no big deal though It was a cute little store it's unfortunate the people who run it. Thanks for reading!

I have passed this places for well over 5 years if not longer and never had a reason to check this place out. Today day I did, but I did not see anything my wife es would wear. She dislikes wearing dresses and most skirts. Something I think she picked up from her mother. The craftsmanship looked outstanding to me.
