Uptown Consignment is a consignment shop located in the same plaza as Ciao Cafe. I have been here…read moreyears ago, I stopped by recently to check it out. Here you'll find a large assortment of shoes, clothing and purses. There's a substantial amount of designer premium brands, such as Chanel, Prada, YSL, Gucci, Burberry, Celine, Luis Vuitton and more. Some are behind the glass, others are not. The store is well organized and most items look to be in good shape. They also sell contemporary branded items. I personally feel they are a bit overpriced. For instance I found the same exact purse at Nordstrom Rack and at Uptown Consignment. At Nordstrom Rack it is $39.99 and at Uptown Consignment it is $66.00. Some items are marked with, if it hasn't sold by a certain date then it'll be discounted by half price. I found a pair of Lululemon Leggings for $24.00 but decided against them because they were cropped. There was a stunning Celine purse, made of the loveliest, most delicate leather for $300. Let's see how long it'll stay on my mind. If you're looking to treat yourself to a fine luxury item, it might be worthwhile to check out Uptown Consignment. Be smart about knowing what things cost.

(Paul McCartney) Nordstrom Rack sells discounted high-end products in a multitude of categories such as men's, women's and children's clothes, shoes, handbags, jewelry, accessories, home and kitchenware, and health and beauty aids. They claim you can save up to 70 percent off regular prices. The store was well stocked and very neat when we shopped today. I didn't find anything I wanted, but my wife did. We'll be attending a Charity Banquet and Ball in a few weeks, and she was looking for a dress to wear. She found a beauty - a nice red Calvin Klein dress stickered at $134 but tagged at just $49.97. That's 62% off. Customer service was great. When we went to the register to pay, we saw a minor stitching defect at the back of the dress. Our cashier arranged for a runner to head back to the rack with us and we found the exact same dress in perfect condition. No complaints at all.

Linden by Larissa is a tiny women's boutique in Old Wethersfield. I enjoy going here and checking…read moreout their inventory. There is no other boutique in this area, so it truly stands out. Linden mostly specializes in formal wear and accessories. You can rent or purchase from them. However, if you choose to purchase make your selection wisely as they don't accept returns. I can't comment on how the rental process works, as I haven't used this service. They sell many earrings, some are more unique then others, I've purchased a pair about a year ago, they still look just as good. The store is very tiny, but is styled really tastefully, having any more then three customers at once is already a crowd. They do have a fitting room, which is so important since all sales are final. If you're looking to support a small business while looking for a formal dress Linden might satisfy your needs.

We've visited their Simsbury store a bunch of times, and we saw pretty much the same selection of low priced goods here in Glastonbury - men's & women's clothing, shoes, household goods, artwork, books, toys, etc. We caught a 50% off sale on clothing yesterday, and I walked out with a $15 blazer for $7.50. Pretty sweet, eh? All proceeds go to charity (The Village for Families) and the store employees are all volunteers. The two women we interacted with were as nice and friendly as could be, we really enjoyed chatting with them. Bottom line? You can score some great bargains and support a worthy charity all at the same time.

The store manager, Susan Jordon, was so upbeat, energetic, friendly, and made my shopping experience one of the best I've had in a very, very long time. I came in to return an order of 4 pants I purcahsed online as a first time customer at J.Jill, I wasn't sure what size to order. Susan simply explained that I was ordering way too big and helped me find the perfect work pant for my new job. She set me up comfortably in a fitting room and brought me endless options to try - taking all the guesswork out of shopping, she picked out items that she thought would fit me well. Once we found the perfect fit, she found the pant in every color they had and went above & beyond to find me the only black pair left in a back stock room (double checking the computer inventory one last time before checking out). She was so friendly & kind - she was a complete joy to shop with. You don't run into this level of customer service at most retail stores. Susan is a tremendous asset to your brand and the company would do well if she traveled to other stores to spread her contagious attitude and friendly service! Job well done, Susan! If you're looking for a new wardrobe, or to simply put a functional outfit together - Susan is your gal! Thanks again, Susan!

I went to Kohl's in Rocky Hill yesterday, in search of very specific black leggings. Well, I found…read morethem in every color but black. I circled the whole store, several times in search of one of those Kiosk machines, where you scan the item or you type it in, you can order it, with fast and free shipping. They don't have this kiosk machine. I finally came across a sales associate and I asked them if they could order the leggings for me, or direct me towards a store that has them in stock, she said no, they can't do that. I think my request was as basic as they come. What type of customer service is this? If you happen to go to Kohl's, currently all items with a yellow tag, are an additional 30% off. There's baby items, home items, kids items, kitchen gadgets, plenty of Easter decor. Keep an eye out on your email and your mail, for coupons. This Kohl's also has a Sephora.

It's set in a charming historic house right in the center of Glastonbury; it doesn't get much nicer than that. The store truly has a little bit of everything: earrings, socks, decorations, candles, mugs--you name it. For my taste, the selection was not really for me, but others might love that classic, cozy style. I have to say, the highlight was an adorable employee--on the shorter side, a bit shy, but absolutely adorable. ( Corgi ) Overall, it's a cute local spot with lots to browse.

Because her gifts and cards are far better priced than those you will find in other stores. I found quality cards and jewelry at reasonable and fair prices!
