Let me start by saying I am a medium-large woman who has difficulty buying clothes, and that I hate shopping. In fact, that's how I started my interaction at Francesca's. Told them I recently got my first job that required "casual professional attire," and it was time for me to put away the extra-large t-shirts. I sincerely hate shopping, because I have a difficult body to fit and as a result I know next to nothing about clothes. I told them about the "problem areas" for my body, but also areas I want to highlight, and also mentioned that I didn't want it to take a lot of time. In less than ten minutes they had the perfect professional capsule-wardrobe picked out for me, including some surprisingly flattering pieces that I never would have chosen for myself. Only my budget prevented me from buying every outfit they picked for me. Overall I spent half an hour and $200 for a solid basic professional wardrobe that is very fashionable.

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.

The return was effortless. I ended up picking up a perfect sleeveless black shell. Sizing and fit were on point. Impressive! While their store lacked in the curvy dept, their online game for those with curves is incredible. I was not able to find the ponte type pants I sought, but again I had no issues with the array of colors and clean displays. Love the Ann Taylor store on Michigan Ave.

The store is a great space and it was easy to look and shop all the items in the store. The staff were really friendly as well! We spent about an hour in the store and my wife bought about 10 things here. I was really surprised at how much all her items costs; not overly priced but not super cheap either. I felt everything was priced just right! I loved that she had a sofa, water bottles, and wine for her customers. After about 30 minutes of looking around I sat down, grabbed some water, and waited for my wife to finish shopping! LOL

(Side note: most retailers in the area are open until 8pm). Well for the 1st time ever I was greeted! The greeting "just so you know we are closing in 15 minutes." As I walked thru the store, I was approached by 3 more associates sharing how many minutes they were closing in. The last associate told me that the registers would close in 3 minutes. Honestly you know going into Anthro that you will drop some $$ so I expect better service. I was looking for a specific item, and if anyone would have asked to help me, it would have been a pretty easy 400$. There were about 12 other customers in the store getting the same treatment. They easily had 1200$ in sales that walked out because they were so uncomfortable. I left about 2 minutes before 7pm and they had to unlock the door to let me and other out. Do better. The one star is because the store is always well merchandised and clean.

I found this store to have an exceptionally friendly staff and a fairly large inventory when I visited several times this summer. Really nice dressing rooms and helpful staff to make recommendations and bring different sizes and styles so I didn't have to constantly change clothes to go out hunting for something else. I was greeted immediately upon entry and offered help and advice in the nicest way possible. FP does have boutique pricing, but their items are unusual and they often have decent sales, so I hit them up quite often. I get compliments on my FP clothes all the time. Wish we had a store this nice where I live.

When I say nice, I mean I really wanted to get their numbers and hang out with them after their shifts. They were so helpful, so genuine, and we were just talking about the most random things like celebrity sightings and one of them getting married. Natalie, I believe is her name, was the best. My friend and her mom ended up getting some amazing jeans. Anine Bing has some pretty great jewelry, clothes, and shoe selection. They also have a sale rack, which I love. It's a very cute store that I think is definitely worth the price they charge. I'd definitely go back!

Before…read morethis location opened, I was only familiar with the in-store boutique section of Anine Bing within Bloomingdale's. I popped in last week for a styling appointment. Maria, my assigned stylist, was personable and spent time discussing what I was looking for and pulling items from the racks. I tried on a few pieces and liked the aesthetic on paper, however, I found some of the items - especially jackets - overwhelming on my shorter frame. I could see a taller, lankier patron being able to pull of these pieces. I give this store definite props for keeping the space clean and uncluttered, making it easy for customers to find their way to both the familiar and the fresh. Accessories complement the clothing selections and are another way to incorporate updates to one's wardrobe.
