I have shopped at Lyn Evans several times, every time with success - and it's usually under duress…read morebecause I have a special event or immediate travel and I find myself without a much needed item! I have found a balance of reasonable and more pricey items - but always something in my budget. The magic formula for me - is that the ladies at Lyn Evans help me put together entire outfits that I would not otherwise buy for myself. I am a boring black slacks, single color blouse and on a good day - a standard issue scarf. You know, the ho-hum clothes that you can get at Ann Taylor or Banana in mass volume and every color. So, as a perfect example this past weekend - I discovered that an event scheduled for that evening was intended to be a "casual upscale" dinner - instead of the little black dress that I had planned to wear. I raced to Lyn Evans at midday and being a very petite 5'0", it's not easy to find much off the rack for me. On this visit, Heather took care of me- she had at least 10 inches on me - so a completely different body style. She put together at least 5 full ensembles for me to try - everything appropriate for my event and for my body type . She encouraged me to try new things, mix of colors and styles, jewelry - and every outfit was spot on - very stylish and got me out of my comfort frumpy zone. I could not be more pleased with the experience and will continue to return to Lyn Evans in the future. Thank you Heather!

My mother and I have been going to Gretta Luxe for years and have spent thousands and thousands of…read moredollars there over the years. We bought multiple items at the sale a few weeks ago but one pair of pants had a broken zipper which wasn't disclosed at the sale. We realized it a few days later and my mother brought it back to return. Laura, the manager, was unbelievably mean to my poor older mother and told her 'if you don't like our merchandise then you don't have to shop here'. My mother explained that we had not been told when we bought the pants (for $200+) that the zipper was defective and Laura continued to be rude to her. I can't believe that Gretta Luxe would sell defective items that they did not disclose to unsuspecting shoppers. It's deceptive to consumers and bad business. I would warn anyone who is considering shopping here to avoid it. There are many luxury boutiques and department stores where they are respectful to customers and do not sell defective luxury items.

What they lack in sheer size, they make up for in quality and an overall very good selection. You can find casual to very dressy here, including some shoes, bags, and jewelry. The girls that work here are very friendly and helpful but not in your face or pushy at all. They are high-end, but not out of reach, and they have amazing sales. I saw amazing pieces from very well known designers like Maladrino and Trina Turk, for 50% off - great stuff. I'll definitely hit it up whenever I'm in town, since I like to find things that are fashion forward, but not exactly what everyone else is wearing. Located in a great spot near Roache Bros, Starbucks, CVS, and lots of other good and convenient shopping.

I wandered into the Clever Hand for the first time yesterday afternoon while strolling through…read moredowntown Wellesley, and wandered out with 3 gorgeous, local artisan-made pieces (handloomed bamboo scarf, hand-dyed silk scarf, and glove leather belt with carved wood "buckle"), none of which I had expected to acquire but could not possibly leave without! The store is stuffed with lovely, one of kind or limited run things that reflect the vision and interests of individual, Massachusetts-based artists--so much more satisfying to browse than a big box store full of mass-produced stuff. The artisan/salesperson who checked me out (she works in paper, making cards and charming wall collages for children) was welcoming and helpful, and my checkout experience in no way resembled the one described by a previous poster. (Frankly, I was a bit taken aback by how indignant that poster got over her frustrating experience--seems she loved the contents of the store, but knocked it THREE stars for inefficient customer service? That seems disproportionate and unfair...)
