    Back of stained lululemon sports bra

    they just took a wipe and only took some of the "just deodorant" stains as they called them. Their lululemon rack is pretty full, but then you see how they're selling dirty clothes- it's very understandable why. You don't charge 30$ and 40$ an item for something stained. I highly recommend you go to the lululemon "we made too much section" and you can get clean never worn bras for 29$. Same with the tanks. The lululemon like new website would also be better if you're looking for a more eco friendly route. I wanted to support a local business, but no. As consumers, we deserve more than just someone scrubbing their hardest to get a stain out (and not even all of it) instead of discounting it.

    This place is so organized! I visited on a weekday so it wasn't busy but I was so impressed with how easy it was to browse through the shop. Everyone is arranged by size and color. The styles skew younger/casual. I saw some North Face, Lululemon, J Crew, etc. I would consider the condition to be good (not like new or excellent). You can definitely tell the clothing is used but everything is clean and decently priced.

    This store reminds me of another store called Plato's closet. Be aware that this is a consignment store and not a thrift store. This means they purchase clothes from other people. The clothes are not donated and that means the pricing will be higher than a thrift store. It is nicely laid out, well organized, doesn't have that used clothes smell and a nice atmosphere with clean fitting rooms It is mainly going to cater to juniors based on the mid to lower end brands that I found. They had a decent clearance section and a small men's section. I didn't find anything I liked or that would fit me but it's worth a stop especially if you are in your teens or 20s.

    Pricey but if you are looking for something original and not cookie cutter department store garb,…read moreit may be worth the extra dollars. The people that work there are genuinely kind. No attitudes just because they sell expensive merchandise.

    Wear it Well is a special place mainly for the women who run and work there. Located in the heart…read moreof downtown Bethesda, this store offers middle to high-end brands in casual and work lines. Plenty of Michael Stars, 525 America Sweaters, and some other more unusual very unique boutique lines. A small store with extremely well-selected inventory. But the highlight of Wear it Well, which I feel is best for women 30 and up, is the longtime owners and employees. I walked in today, told them I wanted to toss my wardrobe out the window, and they proceeded (not overselling, not oversolicitously) to help me come up with some great ideas, good combinations, and a host of things I wouldn't have picked out b/c I'm stuck in my own dull clothing groove. They really worked with me to ensure that I found some special things, and I don't think I'll toss the clothes I bought out the window with the others b/c they do push my proverbial envelope. That's what I needed. When the economy hits hard...and even when it doesn't...I make an extra effort to shop locally. Wear it Well is the kind of carefully merchandised, very well-run boutique that will earn your loyalty. Before you drive to the mall, walk down the street and visit these great gals. Watch out...they talked me into buying an absurdly expensive belt even though I don't wear belts. You know, I think it will become one of my favorite purchases ever! Plus, it's so pricey, I'm going to wear it to sleep every night no matter what.

    *This review is for online pickup orders*…read more If you happen to not know, you can purchase Nordstrom department store items online for pick up at any Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack location. This is such a convenience! And you can also return Nordstrom department store items at a Nordstrom Rack location. However, this does not work the other way around; i.e. items purchased at Nordstrom Rack have to be picked up, and returned, at a Nordstrom rack location. So as of now-this is my go to store location for Nordstrom online purchase pickups! Parking is plentiful, but the lot stays packed with moderate to heavy traffic flow. Walking into the store, there is a huge sign on the back right wall that states "Men's fitting room/Alterations/Online Pick up". I also noticed stickers on the floor pointing in the same direction. However, since I wasn't at all familiar with this location, I walked passed a very small empty counter space and headed towards the wall sign, where another customer and I stood at the entrance of the men's fitting room for 10 mins. There was no one there and no one at the counter. It wasn't until the other customer walked away, and then finally flagged me down to join the line that was now forming at the small empty counter, that I knew where to pick up my orders. Point: it is not an obvious pick up counter, especially if no one is standing there. Also, I had two orders to pick up, but only one was confirmed ready for pickup, so I asked the customer service person about checking on the other order to see if it was also ready. They kindly stated that they would check, but wanted to take care of the other customers first (with confirmed ready for pickup orders). I complied, and started to browse the shoe department for about 20 mins. btw- the women's shoe dept didn't have a lot of options-perhaps already picked over from the holiday season. Finally, I found the same customer service person later on sorting through 'put back' items (from the dressing room, and returns from the registers), and asked again about my order, and they immediately said that nothing else was found for me, and my order may not have come in yet. I showed them my email that stated that my order was supposed to be ready for pick up today, and at the current time, it was four hours until store closing time. The customer service person then said that they will check again in the back. And To my surprise, they found my order, and they found another order that was supposed to be ready for a tomorrow pick up. So that was a very pleasant surprise. For the size and traffic through this store location, it is overall clean and neat. But the selection is overall lacking compared to other locations. However, it's a busy area, so great finds likely go fast. Highly recommend this location; just look for the small counter by the men's fitting room-and even press the service button (if it works) if there is no customer service person seen.

    Good selection of high-quality apparel at discounted prices. Can be overwhelming, though …read more Be sure to have a goal in mind when you come in, or it's not that fun to shop, and you may end up getting things you don't need.
