Ok, calm. Calm yourself.
Ahem.
Holy Shit. Pardon my trucker mouth, but I've just stumbled on something worthy of swearing, cussing and jumping for joy. If you've ever made your way north on Clark Street, you may have noticed a few blocks of "wholesale" clothing, accessories, and doo-dad stores.
These always scared me a bit. Fearing rejection without a wholesale Tax ID number (boutiques and other small businesses buy in bulk from these types of stores), I always blew off the strip on my way to Tiztal...it's random looking, bordering on trashy. I came to find out many do sell to individuals at a bit higher price, but still I was never tempted.
But, today my life has been changed forever.
No longer will I have to trek to Forever 21, Target, Marshall's, Mandee, T-maxx, etc for a last minute cute shirt, dress, purse, earrings, etc. I will come to Nabi. Nabi. Nabi. Nabi. A cute, contemporary oasis on this strip selling to normal people...stylish pieces at affordable prices.
The good?
-Parking (meters) is a breeze! Side streets during the day are good, no permits required.
-WELL priced.
-Great selection, casual to super dressy.
-All sizes, easily marked by colored hangers. (nice!)
-Plenty of sizes in back if you don't see what you need.
-New stuff 2x per week.
-The girls will help you in/out of the pieces, give you some honest feedback and suggest other stuff. I walked out of there feeling like I was Angelina...that's priceless, yo.
A few drawbacks? Of course, but I'm still elated.
-No refunds, exchanges or returns. You betta like it.
-No dressing rooms: they have a long mirror. Wear a cami and yoga pants. There are all women, so not a biggie.
-CC min is $25. (won't be hard, trust)
-They follow you around a little bit. But, they are nice...so talk 'em up!
-Shoes are ugly, skip.
OMG, and if I didn't love this place enough...after you buy all your crazy, awesome, cheap shit (I obviously swear when I'm excited, again...my apologies)...go 8 doors down to their entire store full of....ACCESSORIES. (another review).
I'm f'in out of breath. I didn't even know if I should share this...but then I'm like, whatever...I share all my secrets and the world is still spinnin' and I'm still gettin' hooked up with great deals all the time at places like this. Gotta dig a little, but this...my pretty, fabulous, beautiful friends...is a FIND!
Two belts, a formal (spring fling!) dress, and a ruffly black shirt: $80.
