The trick is that Veridis is rather dimly lit. This makes for a relaxing atmosphere but TBH I need to *see* how something will look in a bright office or on a sunny day. Dim lighting, no 3-way mirror, and a store credit only return policy makes it a little bit of a gamble if you buy.

Went in to look for a Ren Faire costume and it had a great selection of both regular clothing and costumes/clothes that would work for a costume. The owner went above and beyond, leaving the store to add some more of her Ren Faire inventory for us to browse. The person working the register was clearly very passionate about their job, curating cute outfits for mannequins and displays. They were also so kind to us. The prices are great, especially for a vintage store. There were definitely some items that I don't think are considered vintage, but it was well curated. I'm excited to go back and look for some more clothing. Only complaint is the music was just a touch too loud for me.

The store is well-organized and there's never a shortage or interesting finds. This was my first time bringing my daughter here (age 13), and that caused a one bit of discomfort for me: the employees and a friend/guest/customer were discussing drug experiences with one another. I don't recall the specifics (or even whether it was the employees who were contributing most to the conversation). It was just a conversation I'd prefer she not be present to hear. --I'm not taking away stars for this, however, because I don't think 13 year olds are their target clientele and, as a parent, I brought her to this place that is frequented by college students more often than not. There was always the option to leave.

She had just gotten in a bunch of new stuff and was organizing in the back. As a result, the store was quite messy and the owner a bit stressed out, but very apologetic and helpful. I would have come back a different day, but I was on a tight deadline so I spent some time looking at and trying on a few dresses. Nothing was quite right. I wanted something authentically vintage and there didn't seem to be many options in my size, although there were some reproductions and vintage-inspired things in the shop (not really my style). I couldn't tell if the store was usually cluttered-looking or if it was just that it hadn't been totally organized yet, but it felt like there was too much going on. The mess was only really a problem because I stepped on a small piece of broken glass, barefoot, in the dressing room/nook, and couldn't see very well in the dimly lit space to pull it out. So maybe keep your shoes on if you try anything on.
