    What can I say, I like to be fancy sometimes, and this Capital Region boutique always has exactly…read morewhat I'm looking for, even before I know what it is I'm looking for, ya know what I mean? This shop offers an entirely different shopping experience than we're used to in the Capital Region. Instead of rummaging through the racks at the big box or off-price stores, shopping at Fancy Schmancy is like the Cadillac of shopping experiences: pretty much one-stop shopping for all your fancy outfit needs, with attentive and sweet sales associates helping you find what you're looking for, minus the crowds and the parking and the other headaches that come with shopping at places like the mall. Fancy Schmancy is popular on the high school prom circuit (and rightfully so!); however, this shop is so much more than prom dresses and ball gowns - it's one of my favorite places to shop when I'm looking for something a little fancier than usual, so if/when you need something for a special occasion, you should definitely give this place a try! From black tie weddings to causal holiday parties, and I've always felt like a million bucks while wearing anything I've ever purchased from this shop, like the perfect cocktail dresses for my sister's December rehearsal dinner and black tie wedding in July, or a long tweed vest with a faux fur trimmed collar and pockets outlined with a uniform row of pearls and silver beads for a casual holiday party, I've found the perfect threads to wear for any occasion. And it's not just the clothes, either. Fancy Schmancy has a beautiful display and selection of jewelry/costume jewelry to accessorize with, not to mention trendy hair pieces, like top knot and Renaissance style headbands, sparkly bobby pins, and the latest craze: jumbo flip clips. I actually picked up a pair of jumbo flip clips adorned in pearls to wear to the holiday party with the faux fur vest (I was getting a blow out so why not be extra fancy, right?) and what started an impulse buy at the register turned into my new favorite hair accessory! They have a really fun social media feed (@fancyschmancycouture) and true story: one time last summer I raced over there after I saw a really cool newspaper print jumper in their Instagram Stories, because it was the perfect outfit to wear to an event I had that weekend. So if anyone doubts the power of social media, I'm a good case study. They have a good price point overall - some things can be a little on the higher end (the fancier cocktail dresses and pieces in that department), but their casual wear is pretty reasonable, and it's definitely boutique quality and selection over the mass produced stuff you see on the racks virtually everywhere else. Social media is a great way to keep up with their inventory and, more importantly, sales! In fact, right now until the end of the year (literally one more day) they're offering 40% off casual wear, so I'm tempted to pop in to see what last minute deals of 2019 I can snag! If you're still looking for a NYE outfit, I highly suggest you save yourself the headache and aggravation of rummaging through the racks at the mall and give this boutique a try - you might be surprised! I know I was.

    After a while, boutiques around here just become conglomerated into the same darn things. Designer…read morethis, pretty dressses that, high prices here, ever-changing stock there. But, Circles really does stick out a bit over the "norm". When you first walk in, you're greeted with high piles of denim to the left and to the right. If you're looking for the latest and most expensive new denim designer out there (or if you still love those Sevens), it's here. A sophisticated walk toward the back, and you'll find shoes straight out of the newest Lucky/Glamour/Cosmo/Nylon issue, in a separated display that does well to highlight the kicks. In the adjoining room, racks of breathtaking gowns to playful grown-up rompers wait to be touched and swirled. It's a rather large place, filled with intelligent stock and only a few of "wait, what?" pieces from runway design. The owner is such a sweetheart that I feel ridiculous not remembering her name. Although it's a women's-only boutique, it's definitely a one-stop-shopping-after-that-paycheck-hits place. If greatly made and uniquely pieced clothing is your thing, get to know the owners' name.

    I've been trying to patronize this business since they were in Delmar. The service is awful. I may…read morehave made @10 trips here and only purchased when I was greeted- first time when pregnant, second time when the shoes outweighed the customer service. Went yesterday for the LAST time to prove to my friend that we should boycott. Walked in the door, 4-5 sales associates standing around the register. NO ONE SPOKE to us. We browsed the front, walked to the back and not a simple "hello". I've always suspected that it was because i am black but that's the easy way out. My friend is Korean and they did the same to her (perhaps because she was with me lol). This business is just whack and their selections have declined since the 90s. Save your money, shop elsewhere.
