She hand picks everything in there and also makes some of the accessories herself. She was working on hand detailing the flag jacket in the pictures. I can't wait to come back!

The quality suited our needs and 2 stars is not for the dresses, but for what makes up much of the experience when excitedly setting out to shop for a nice dress with your teen daughter. We've been to this store twice to make purchases and both times we had to endure terrible customer service from one particular employee. A kind manager stepped in to resolve our situation. As the manager helped us, the employee went to the next register to ring someone else - and we could hear her being difficult with those customers, too!

I went in this morning with both of my littles under 2 and was in sweatpants (nothing new) feeling like I just wanted to spend my gift certificate on jewelry to avoid trying things on and get out as fast as I could. I lost my baby weight very quickly but entirely unrealistically for my schedule and it has almost entirely creeped back on me. I am taking my time losing and getting healthy once and for all but I am in no way at a place where I am comfortable with my body. The sad truth is I can't keep wearing gym clothes. Totally fine for errands and around the house but passing my favorite high waisted leggings off for black skinnies when I go out with my husband is getting old fast and SUPER sweaty now that the weather is warming up. It's a catch 22 though because I don't plan on being this size forever so I have been refusing to purchase clothes... well I realized that I need wardrobe staples that will motivate me to lose weight by feeling good. Madison's Niche had exactly what I needed to get to my goal. I spent a fair amount (but didn't break the bank) and bought a well rounded mini wardrobe that I can interchange and feel comfortable and confident in. Gym clothes are great but sometimes a girl needs to feel like she got dressed and showed up for the day. I highly recommend stopping in. Parking was a breeze, the women inside were warm, friendly, and honest. They were not pushy AT ALL and I am really excited to wear one of my new outfits tonight for our Thursday date night.

I've also known the owner for years - she is a kind, respectable person who truly cares about her customers. However, over the past year or two, I've noticed a decline in customer service. There are a few sales associates whose approach often makes shopping uncomfortable. They seem eager to help younger women or those who fit the mold of a certain aesthetic, but if you don't, the experience changes. Instead of showing flattering pieces that could accentuate your positives, they tend to pull oversized items - with more of an appeasing "let's cover you up" attitude rather than talking to you positively about what could look good on you. Even when I share my preferences and typical size, I'm often presented with clothing that feels mismatched to what I've expressed I like. At this point, it feels less like a mistake and more like inexperience or a lack of understanding of how to style different body types. Additionally, hiring only sales staff who look and act "trendy" misses the mark when it comes to connecting with the broader demographic of women who should be embraced and celebrated as valued customers. It's too bad, because the clothes themselves are cute - but the experience has become so unpleasant that I will be taking this place off my list of places to shop.
