From the windows in the storefront you are drawn in and the fun doesn't stop there. Once inside, for a few minutes at least, it is overwhelming because there is SO much to take in. They utilize their space wisely and pack the house here! From toys to books, clothes to rattles, home decor to skin care, and everything in between, this place has a big selection. The service is mostly reactive, meaning you engage them, not them you. They are nice once you do engage them, but don't expect them to initiate the conversation. I found the prices to be average, if not trending on the high side. I won't fault them for this, as that seems to be the trend right now. Fun store, I certainly suggest you check them out if you have young ones in your life you need to shop for!

Shoes are boring same in every other "boutique" and dresses always have a weird neck line or big pieces missing or too short. Come on get some class. Also the Jeans now days sometime a miss too.

We probably come in once a month just with the hopes they will have some better clothes but sadly we end up buying online.

My little sister likes Jellycats and I wanted to surprise her so I looked online for stores nearby…read morethat sell them in-person I ended up driving about 45 minutes to buy them in person here. Come to find out after she opened them that she had others she'd rather get and no one else in our house really cares for them so I went to return them but I double-checked their website to make sure they accept returns since it was a local store and I didn't want to waste a trip. The website says they do so I drove another 45 minutes to take them back. Get in the store...and they definitely accept returns... for store credit or exchange "only". So no cash returns. The cashier motioned to some out of the way picture on the side wall that states you can only return for store credit. Some advice to offer: It would be a better idea to put it where customers can actually see it like most stores with alternate return policies do (like on the checkout counter or mentioning it during checkout/making the policy clear that there are no cash returns) so they can make the decision for themselves if they'd still like to shop. Had I known I at least would have double-checked with my sister beforehand or wouldn't have shopped there at all. I don't have any family that young and I don't collect Jellycats so I have no use for the stuffed animals or the store credit. I just wasted $70 and gas...on a situation that could have been avoided with better transparancy. If I wanted to donate $70 I'd have given it to a cause that actually needed it this season. Do better.

This time I learned she has been feeling nauseous as she was put on speaker phone during my checkout. Rude and stand-offish is how I would describe my overall experience here. Was never asked if I needed help with sizing while trying things on and had to come out half clothed to get another size. I went to the car and saw she overcharged me for a sweatshirt. I went back in for my refund and was told she couldn't refund my tax and told me I was out the money because her system wouldn't refund my taxes. She kept repeating that she could refund my taxes even though it was her error. Never apologized. I had her call the owner and they eventually worked it out by making me rebuy the sweatshirt and taking it off of the purchase price. She had attitude the entire time. I will NEVER shop here again.

You are paying mall prices (for sure) but the clothes really are adorable. You are not likely to find most of this stuff at Target or Kohl's so I can live with paying a little more. I did, however, have to promise my husband not to make this a staple of my wardrobing budget. They have cool boots and lots of cute tops (and some coats and accessories). I bought a gray thermal-style shirt with the SMU logo on it for around $60. It's really, really cute and so soft. So, I'm a fan. I really think it is good quality and will last. It better, or my husband will kill me.

Easily the cleanest, stain free, trendiest kids resale in Dallas. I'm not sure why they don't extend to Austin and Dallas. No cover charge but there are some rules to attending. Other sales permit obviously stained items, it is Rare to find a stained item at this sale. If you do, hand it to an employee or drop it in the basket and they remove it. Checkout is easy, you do get a bit of a discount if you pay cash. Check the website for the size of wagon you can bring, they sell IKEA style bags, and to see which days kids are permitted, which days are 50% and 75%!

Something great: sorting tables with go back racks and bins. I love this idea and makes it so…read morepeople aren't putting things on the floor and then leaving them in the incorrect location when they decide to not keep it. Now for the negative as a shopper: no shopping bags unless you purchase them. I was shocked by this. You'd think they want people to gather as much as they can fit! The large ikea bags aren't that expensive ($1 each), and considering how much money they are making this could make them a lot more! Also, no bag to have your purchased items in. This makes it easy to leave when you may not have paid for something that you put in your stroller. Theft is easy here. Now for the negative as a consigner: There is no inspection of your items when you arrive. You walk in and place your items. Then they inspect and pull your items from the floor if they don't meet quality standards AFTER you've left the building. This leads to a lot of people selling dirty items because they know the inspection process is lax. This also lead to me placing sandals on the tables and just before being done, someone happened to see what I was placing and let me know sandals are seasonal and they would be pulled off the floor. So I went back to collect the other sandals and ended up not remembering one. So now I walk out with my items and they have no idea if I picked up my own items to leave or someone elses. Again, theft option. Also, I had shoes in boxes. There is nothing on the consignor detail pages that say no shoe boxes under the shoe section. Since that was all I was consigning, that is where I looked prior to bringing my items and placing them on the floor. Again, no inspection at drop off, so had no other way of knowing a detail that is NOT on their website. I went to pick up my unsold items and they threw away my boxes! I understand keeping them behind a desk, or calling the seller, but then the owners daughter (who will be taking over the business) said it was on the website. I didn't have it pulled up at that time to say, "No, it's not!" And there was nothing I could do about it since they are long gone in the garbage. There should be an option for sellers to sell at the 50% off, but not the 75% off. I didn't mark anything discount because of this. I spent my shift sorting and organizing girl shoes the entire night and one of my pairs of shoes was not sold and not on the floor. They were in my pile when I went to pick up and they would have sold if they were on the floor. I have no idea where they were the night before. They were priced cheap and almost new. Last, and every consignor should be upset about this... I worked a shift and got to shop beforehand for an hour. I found great items (although a lot stained/faded/etc that I didn't purchase.) During the sale time I handled go-backs for clothing and saw some other things that I wished I had picked up. In the last hour when there were only about 8 shoppers left, I asked the owners son-in-law (who will be taking over this business with his wife at some point) if I could get more items and check out. He said no and that I could come back the next morning (a Tuesday - work day) if I wanted to buy more because I'm on shift until closing. We literally stood around waiting for the last shopper to check out before they would let 20 volunteers leave. I could have purchased 10-20 more items which is money for the consignors at 50% off, but was told to come back on 75% off day (which I couldn't) and then most items I wanted were going to donation, so no sale for consignor or company owner!!!! What's the point of that? Did they think I was stashing items? Y'all should have seen the thousands of items going to donation the following day! :( That is not a business owner mentality, it's a worker mentality and they should not be running a business. I was shocked to see the Consignment Mommies award this consignment shop won last year! Just shocked!
