Okay, Alano's as well as Wakefield Center as a whole will bring you back to the 1950's--and…read morequick... It is an old-fashioned looking downtown/center with a lot of the original signs and buildings from a different time...enjoy. Welcome...you are back to the era of Woolworth's and Brigham's (which I am not knocking, as I remember both from childhood). Just setting the scene.... As Rachael made mention of in her review, grandmas would love shopping here (again, not a knock, I love my gramma very much and would take her here anytime!) But, they have stuff for non-grandma-folk too. If I wasn't currently so well-stocked in my wardrobe, I probably would have come out with a few things... ...If the 1950's don't creep you out, you could score here---big time. They have some newer/trendier brands that I know are from TJ Maxx/Marshall's and everything in between all the way over to certified "Mom Jeans" that fit you snuggly and stiffly (they are thick denim) well above the waist. But they are crisp and new and I don't know where they got them! They could sell on Ebay for collectors or fashion historians... Oh...speaking of crisp...I almost forgot...they had all of the ladie's polyester casual pants (circa 1970, like my mom used to wear soooooooooooooooo long ago...) that you could shake a stick at...It made me think that someone might come in in grab them for some play/ period costumes They have men's and children's/baby clothing and it looked good from across the way but I had no desire to investigate. Highlights: Women's sweaters and winter coats were fashionable and veeeeeeeeeeeery cheap! Nice, warm vests.... Some nice purses A plethora of gramma nightgowns, if you are looking for a present for your gramma...

Last time I was here, I spent $50 and got 4 dresses and 3 shirts. I don't want to even think about how much the same stuff would have cost at Nordstrom. WHAT A DEAL!

I have to say that Rada and her staff could not have been nicer. I went there to buy my wife a…read moregift and they all worked so hard to help. They asked me a lot of questions about her and what she liked. I would not wander through a big department store any more. This store had a lot to choose from. There are many unique and high quality items, it was hard for me to choose from the things they selected. I had a good time, they are fun and very helpful group. All I can say is if you are looking for a nice gift for a woman in your family - stop by and they will help you find just the right thing!

I'm not afraid of you or your threats legal action Rada. Many Yelpers have messaged me about the…read morecomment you wrote to me. Many feel it wasn't very nice to put it lightly. One Yelper even commented to me that you "slit your own throat" with replies like the one you left me. Just so we are clear "slit your own throat" is figurative NOT literal, it is a figure of speech. What was meant by that comment is that you give the unsatisfied customers more credibility because of the harsh reply, it makes you look like the bad guy. If you read Help For Business Owners, Yelp gives some practical suggestions to help Business Owners to respond to negative reviews in a tactful way that helps defuse situations such as this one, instead of being threatening. I mean I wouldn't want you to get sued in return, Yelpers are well protected by the 1st Amendment and Anti- slapp legislation. I amended my review and took out the words that offended you because I am a reasonable person. I do not wish anything bad upon you. I am just expressing my opinion, feelings and telling my experience. I hope your business continues to do well and that you learn from experiences such as the one that I had and improve the customer service you give to your con-signers. Maybe that improvement would be something as simple as agreeing upon a set price to sell the consigned item for before taking it for consignment and putting it in writing.

It is fun to shop here and have them remember you! Check it out!

I rarely write reviews. However, I had such a wonderful experience at Jo Karen I have been…read moreinspired to encourage others to seek out this fine establishment. No woman is happy with her body. Big or small we all feel wrong. So, looking for lingerie is painful. In my case, I am small and feel there is nothing for my frame. Happily Jo Karen seems to be committed to finding lingerie for ALL women. I am happy to say that even at my age (67) I finally found a bra that is perfect - comfortable and perfectly proportioned for my frame. While I came to this shop for a bra - I left with many other items that I found would fit - slips, panties, etc. I also have ordered some of these items in other colors which they are happy to do by phone. I never thought shopping for underwear would be enjoyable. I was wrong. Thank you Brooke. If you are insecure about lingerie shopping, this place will change you.

Very nice person on phone made my appt today and also greeted me when I entered today. Despite…read morehaving appt for "fitting", when I entered store another customer came in after, who received hearty greeting and spent time talking about her home renovations with 2nd sales person supposed to take my appt, while I stood waiting to be acknowledged by 2nd sales person. Even after first nice sales person told her I was waiting. Was given a bra that didn't fit, at all. Person supposed to take care of my appt continued to other dressing room to 2nd customer while I as trying one on. Think because I showed up in jeans and tee, not dressed up, she didn't realize was about to drop cashola to get right products. First sales person tried to convince me to stay (she was very nice), but, was miffed how 2nd sales person supposed to help with my first time ever appt, didn't handle. Won't waste time going back. Didn't mind waiting a few minutes, but being ignored, didn't make good impression, especially when ready to make investment.
