Do you enjoy shopping at boutiques? Do you like supporting…read moreindependent artists and unique designs? Do you like buying cool gifts for loved ones? If you have answered "yes" to all of these questions then I recommend visiting the Montavilla neighborhood in SE Portland to check out Union Rose! Here there are many local designers and artists which create unique gifts and clothing (from men, women to children). Union Rose lives and breathes the "Portlandia" vibe and is highly recommended if you're looking for something along these lines. I recently purchased a turquoise-white dandelion-imaged tie for my brother's birthday and he was blown away by how "awesome" it was. The owner of Union Rose is also a designer herself and currently has about 20-30 independent designers who sell their cool crafts at her boutique. If you're ever in the area, check this place out. You probably won't go empty-handed.

The fit is amazing and they are all so comfortable it is hard to choose which one to wear!

I am dying to return to keep shopping and I absolutely love my new bra, dress blouse and pants. While shopping and Lane Bryant Cascade' they all treated me like a real person not a number and reduced the amount of stress while I shopped. That's it! No waist of time and I saved more favorites for next time around. Thanks for more delicate embroidered yellow flowers followed by black, patent leather pants. I love it because it's okay for me to show off my curves. Like a hot, bumble bee yellow dress blouse and awesome white new stretch bra. I am really happy that my stomach was tucked nestled solid underneath my stretchy, leather pants that suggested I was confident and dressed to match the shopping mood to be specific.

The sales person did the measurements in the doorway to main fitting room, not even in a fitting room. After she measured my mom, looking disgusted the whole time, she brought us 5 bras that didn't match the measurements she had just taken. She then proceeded to walk in on my mom as she was changing once she finally got a room to change in - no knock on the door, no "are you ready", nothing, just opened the fitting room. My mom has recently lost a good deal of weight and was hoping to get spend a good deal of money on new bras and we walked out with nothing and we won't be back. Of note - another attendant also walked in on another customer without knocking. Do better.

After years of being a customer I will be cancelling my credit card for this and a few other disappointing situations in last few months like broken earrings out of box that they refused to take back at store and told me I could try to sell on a place like eBay . As if I would sell broken earrings to someone on a place like that. That was alarming to me. Between that encounter with the person at counter chatting with the manager as she gave me the crooked advice and the return not posted back on my card I question what happened to this company.

Not for wardrobe staples, the quality isn't there. What brings me in are the jeans. They carry sizes 1-24 and have a variety of styles which I really appreciate as it turns out, humans come in a variety of sizes and shapes! Yes, they have the skinny jeans, but also straight cut, boot leg and some wide leg styles. Prices are totally reasonable - around $30 - so if you want the currently "in" high waist, wide leg for 2021, it doesn't break the bank. Also great for affordable accessories - fashion jewelry, scarves, hats, belts and even some boots. The boots and shoes are not real leather so they are not going to be as comfortable or durable. Located near Best Buy at Cascade Station, it's in a convenient location. It's not a regular stop for me, but once in awhile I pop in. Those working here are helpful, friendly and pleasant.

Their…read morefashion is definitely geared to a younger demographic so there aren't many pieces that work for me. That being said, their black millennial stretch slacks rock! Not only are they incredibly comfortable, they are a true black and retain the color and shape no matter how many times you wash them. They have a good amount of stretch while still hanging nicely with a tailored fit, looser in the lower leg, with a comfortable waist. My only complaint is they need to lose the three hooks and replace with one snap or button. I have several pairs and they are my go to when I want to wear something a little dressier than jeans. Perfect for the office and they are fantastic for travel because they are lightweight, pack well, and don't wrinkle. This season they have a higher waist trouser version which I plan on buying. Torrid also has a lot of beautiful flowing dresses that are fitted in the waist and gently cascade over your hips. I'm a sucker for a good maxi dress and I have bought several. Their bathing suits are extremely supportive, well made and stylish. I've bought a few tankini tops and just love them. I swim laps for an hour every day and go through many suits a year because chlorine destroys them. The tankini top from Torrid has a modern geo pattern (not old lady patterns of ginormous flowers) with thicker material that holds its shape while holding in mine! The lace details at the chest give it a little sexy without being over the top. Gorgeous and wears beautifully. My only gripe is that I wish they did the standard sizing because it's just easier. They have adopted a 0-6 sizing which they say is easier. It's not! Every other store does 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, etc, and because their sizing is generous, it makes the translation challenging. More so when ordering online and you can't try it on. For me, I learned to translate their numbers to the standard and then go one size down. I'm not flattered by the illusion that I've gotten smaller! I could care less about the number, my focus is 100% on the fit regardless of size. This Torrid is conveniently located between a Lane Bryant, where I buy my bras, and Old Navy where I buy all of my compression leggings, so when I'm out this way, I stop in to see what the season brings. Torrid often has sales and I find the online sales are far better than what is in the store. But since I need to try things on and I refuse to pay shipping, I order online and have it shipped to the store for free. If I see something while I'm in in the store that I like, I always go to their website to see the online price, which is typically lower, and they will honor it. Staff is friendly and helpful. Store is clean and organized. Plenty of parking out front with other stores close by. Right off I-5 I now visit this store when I'm out in the Lake Oswego area.

Did not notice any service happening. Limted sizes like small and Meduim on some items. The owmer/manager responded to my review below by stating they are a small store and sell out of sizes since they only get 8 of each. They still have limted sizes. I am not sure if the "why" matters if you go shopping and wear a large and there are none. I was not able to view the size or price tags without having to fish for them and pull it out so I could see. I found it annoying when shopping since buying clothes is the main goal. It is not an art exhibit. Maybe they do not know what it is like to be short and not able to easily view the tags. It is amazing how are unaware people people are of size differences. Yes, you can set your store up however you want. Just not every one will find it user friendly.
