Great unique designs on tops and dresses. Age range is 25-35 I'd guess quality is good. You can tell the clothes are made of good material. Items are on the pricey side. $70+ depending on the garment. It's worth a look though. I bought an evening clutch, an earring/necklace set, a pair of sunglasses and a hat on sale for $110 with tax! Good deal for sure!

It's impressive to see and walk around in and has almost every store and type of food you could want. I enjoyed Nordstrom, Dumplings, Ice Cream, White House Black Market, Macy's, Lululemon, etc. etc. They have all the usual chains (Victoria's Secret....) but some other boutique stores as well. Huge food court on the lowest level and a private entrance into the Ritz Carlton which is attached to the building. Super convenient if you are staying at the hotel, as I did, and I was here every day to people watch, get snacks, or just to walk the levels and get some exercise.

Poor quality garments for a high price…read more A seam came apart on the coat I bought at Mina's. After the seam was opened I could see that none of the seams were reinforced or overlocked, and the allowances were too small. I tried to return it, and showed Mina construction. Mina blamed me for ripping the coat, because it was too small. Three weeks earlier when she wanted the sale she told me how well the coat fit me, and how good it looked. When asking to return it, Mina argued that she does not take returns even if the item was poorly made, because nothing she sells is poorly made. She claimed that all seams in the US are small and showed me the construction on a sweater with overlock seams to prove her point. When I told her that the construction of an unlined sweater can't be compared to that of a lined coat, she rushed to the desk to answer the phone even though there was another sales person in the store. To quote Mina "This is not a department store. We don't take returns." Most reputable small businesses and educated consumers know that mass produced, novelty coats made in China have inconsistent quality control. It's hard to believe that in the 25 years Mina claims to be in business, that she has not learned this. But I've learned not to shop at Mina's.

I've always wanted to go in this boutique; I've bypassed it driving, on the bus, or walking the…read morebeaten path after hours and unfortunately they were closed. But this day - a Saturday afternoon - before going into Ben's Chili Bowl which is directly across the street from the boutique I caught the traffic light and ran across the street and into the boutique. It's small and quaint, with a relaxing and welcoming vibe and I was immediately greeted upon entering by the associate behind the counter. She gave me the run down about the fashions and sales. This boutique has some really beautiful well-made clothes - very unique in designs and styles. So I made my way to the back where the sale's rack was; always on the lookout for a sale. I bought a pair of suede crop pant with embroidered design around the waist and styled with studs on the outside seams and pockets. Sounds busy but they are baaaaad; not too much but just enough to pair with a blazer, shirt, sweater or jacket. If you're a fashionista with a unique sense of style and taste in clothes, cat walk your way to the C.A.T. WALK Boutique. What you won't find is a piece that everybody else is buying/wearing; rather you'll find something that's unique to you and your style.

It's definitely not run of the mill…read morethat you see everyone wearing and don't expect cheap prices except n the back where there are deep discounts and second hand designer items.

I don't know how I overlook this place each time I am near. I somehow just associate it with the…read moreMetro station and forget that it is its own standalone business. I think what happens is that I mindlessly walk through here as I use it as a passageway. I need to start paying attention to what is in here and keep note of it. Basically this is a mall. Like every mall just about everywhere, they are without some businesses. But, I will say this about the DMV area, even with some shops being empty, the malls still know how to draw people in. Even if it is just for the food options. This place has a ton of food options and some of the places in here are the only place in DC to find them, or at least a place where it is fairly easy to get to in order to visit the business. They got the run of the chains you would see in almost any food court. Charleys, Five Guys, Jamba Juice, Moe's, Panda Express, Starbucks, Subway, etc. But there are a lot of mom and pop stands mixed in. You can definitely find something for your lunch or a quick snack. This is one of the only places I have seen a Church's Chicken in the city. It can be a maze walking through here, especially if you arrive via Metro. But like I said, it is a great passageway to get yourself to areas without having to be outside. With the Spy Museum on the one end it's a great place to spend a day in the city. The Wharf not too far either. There are a few shops throughout as well. Mostly open during daylight hours if you need to grab a thing or two. Everything from a post office to a convenience type store. If you are lucky enough to work nearby, I am sure this is busy around the lunchtime hour.

A little confused what this is. I think it's a fancy train station/transfer hub, I guess. Anyway, I…read morefound out about it because I was staying at the hotel nearby. If you're staying at the Hilton, there's a direct connection to it from the hotel. So this place is helpful because it has several fast food options. Nothing to rave about, but when you're traveling access to quick, fast food is important. Many food places either seemed always closed when I went a few times or open at inconsistent times. The place also never seems busy. Kinda ghost town-ish. Panda Express seemed to be the main attraction here. All together tho, it was clean. I think the space has potential to be a more useful shopping space for people.

I really appreciate Willow's second location. It's bigger, bright, and airy. I find the clothing at…read moreWillow to be cute and reasonably priced, though it's not always quite my style. I do love the jewelry here, and the display at this location is beautiful. Staff was super helpful, despite my visit on busy, beautiful Saturday. I was looking for a very specific style, which they don't have, but the woman offered to keep an eye out for me, and she took my information, which was quite nice of her (I did get her name, but I forgot it. She was awesome though.). This location is great and I highly recommend visiting.

Majority of Navy Yard is populated with local chains, and SOMEWHERE offered something unique. BLUE MATCHA - 8 I think this is just milk + spirulina (don't think there's actually matcha in here, but maybe there was so little of it that I couldn't tell). Either way, it was disappointing. It tasted like blue-colored whole milk with a slight "sea umami" flavor from the spirulina. Definitely not worth how much I paid for in terms of quality and quantity.

They have a solid collection of sneakers and usually carry Jordan releases (definitely check ahead for drop dates). I was debating on what to grab, and the staff gave me great recommendations. I actually came back on a different day for a sneaker drop no regrets at all. So happy I found this gem. :) And the funny part? When someone asks where I got my shoes from and I say "Somewhere," it sounds like I'm gatekeeping but I'm literally telling the truth. Genius branding if you ask me. lol Since I was already there, I had to try one of their seasonal matcha drinks: CARAMEL BUTTER MATCHA - $8.50 I ordered it with oat milk. The blend was smooth and well-balanced. I personally would've loved it just a tad sweeter, but honestly, no complaints. It was still really good. The staff? Super helpful, friendly, and just a whole vibe. The energy in there is welcoming and cool without being overwhelming. They also sell merch, which feels very intentional and on-brand not just random pieces thrown in. Speaking of branding, I LOVE the name and the decor. It's clean, spacious, and aesthetically pleasing. And that blue bag? So fire. Definitely giving Nipsey blue vibes This is one of those spots I'll be back to whether it's for a sneaker drop or a matcha fix.

I was not looking for anything in particular, but she took me through the entire Louis Vuitton store, and show me the exotics and some of the cool things in store. She was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and kind to me. I loved that there are many selection to choose from. Because of this amazing experience, I took a piece of DC with me home. It is Louis Vuitton, so I don't know why yelp is asking me to explain the value in my review, but it is as valuable as you appreciate the brand. So yes, it is a pretty good value for me? If you go in, ask for Brenna.

Other reviews are correct. Wouldn't come here again. Went for cologne for a birthday present only…read moreto find out that they don't have an engraving machine (haven't had one for 3 yrs). The website directs you to come to store for engraving. The salesperson was generally nice, but interested in helping to see how I could get an engraved cologne via delivery or any other method by the date I needed it. While in the store, another customer came in and asked for a refill of cologne and was told they had been out for a week. He was frustrated because he said he had called in advance. The store is clearly poorly managed, they don't seem to care about making sure customers are happy with their experience. The vibe feels like, "we are LV, because you want our brand, service doesn't matter". If the person I'm buying this gift for didn't really want it, I would've left and spent my money elsewhere.
