Last week I went, and as soon as I walked in the door, this lovely man Connor asked what he could help me with and I said I want something light that I can wear to dinner that isn't a fabric that is going to be too heavy and he took me to a shirt that was absolutely perfect. But that's not really the story I'm going to tell, after I left the store I got a call from Connor saying did I drop a $20 bill? Well, I keep my cash next to my wallet in my pants and I was pretty sure that it was me that dropped the $20 bill. So when I got to my next stop, I looked at my cash and yes, I was missing a $20 bill. I could not believe that any employee would care about a customer and a $20 bill. Superstar. He said he put in an envelope and I could come in and get it tomorrow. Who does that? Connor does that, you talk about earning a customers loyalty while he just did it.

Hands down, the best all around Men's & Women's active wear clothing brand on the market! My wife and I moved our family down to Encinitas about 9 months ago and stumbled upon Vuori in downtown Encinitas. The best thing I could have ever done, was walk inside and try some of their clothes on for the very first time. Vuori's clothes are made of the finest material and designed in way to keep you comfortable in any active situation. I have been wearing their T-shirts and Shorts religiously to ALL of my Orange Theory Fitness workouts 6 days a week for the last 6 months and have never been so comfortable in a HIIT workout. The clothes are of the highest quality, extremely durable (for workouts, yoga, surfing, running, tennis etc), and look EXCELLENT! If I could give them 10 Stars, I would. Check out Vuori in downtown Encinitas or online, you'll have NO regrets! read more

Great to see a clothing brand that makes a great product, firstly, but also something suitable for a versatile and dynamic lifestyle. I wear these boardshorts to CrossFit, surfing and my yoga classes. So I'm stoked I can have a couple of pairs of trunks that make clearing out my old clothes so easy. Check them out - seriously. read more

They had a lot of items I liked. The staff was present in the store, but I had to ask for help. The girl I asked took the time to look up an item I was interested in, but it was mostly sold out in store and online. She said that they could order it but there was a chance they would not get it due to the fact that the online quantity was so limited. I appreciated her candor and did not order the item. I tried on a few items and decided on my purchase. I had heard the previous cashier tell someone that they did not have much change in the register so if the person was paying cash they couldn't take any large bills. When it came time to pay I decided to pay cash, but apparently they had to use a different register for that. I had exact change, so she moved over to the next register. It took her awhile to figure it out and she had to call for help. Eventually, she figured it out but I felt bad for the person waiting behind me. I will definitely be back. They had some really nice items and are not far from me.

When I walked in the store, Rachel greeted me so warmly and introduced herself offering any help I may need. As I wandered through the various racks in the store, she checked up on me every so often to make sure that I was finding everything OK. Usually, this annoys me, but her demeanor was so kind. I didn't mind. Unfortunately, I didn't find any dresses that I liked, but I did manage find something. When I got to the counter, there was no one there so I waited a little bit. The girl who had been ringing up people prior, apologetically came to help me. She rang up my purchase applied my discount and I was on my way.

My wife and I visited this store to enjoy the fun experience of getting her some new clothes, and…read moresadly it was not enjoyable at all because of the awful treatment we were subjected to by the three staff members present that day. Some brief context: the store closes at 7pm on Sundays, and we arrived at 6pm. My wife excitedly picked out over 30 items to try on (17 of which we purchased). She was in the fitting rooms by 6:30 pm. Now, future customers deserve to know the details of this visit: The sales associate, Daniella, was semi-patient at best and lazy and 'inconvenienced' at worst. Whenever my lovely, polite and respectful wife asked for a different size, Daniella either said they didn't have it or would take a short walk to nowhere and return with a "no" answer, and this was the majority of the time. On one occasion, I said I would go look for the item myself since she wouldn't, and guess what, I returned with a smaller size that did fit and that we added to our purchase. By 7:20 pm it was obvious Daniella was frustrated that we were still in the store, even though my wife's "Yes" rack far outnumbered the no's, and all while she folded and sorted clothes. It wasn't as if she was standing at my wife's side, not at all. By 7:25 pm, after a shared look and an "omg" gesture with Daniella, Dalton, the cashier, came back to the fitting rooms and asked if we needed him to carry our purchase to the register, stating they were closed. My wife was visibly stressed from their urgency to get her out of the store, and she only had three items left to try on. I was furious. I reminded them not even restaurants worth a second visit force customers from their table and kick them out with to-go bags in hand. They allow them to finish. While my wife was completing her selections, Daniella, Dalton, and a woman named Rita performed what appeared to be their usual closing duties, like folding and re-racking clothes, and straightening up. They clearly had things to do while my wife finished choosing the items she wanted. Our presence was not preventing them from doing so. Once I politely but sternly told them their behavior was upsetting to us, their behavior became even worse. With exchanges of sarcastic glances between Daniella, Dalton, and now Rita, Rita stormed into the fitting rooms and demanded we go to the front to make our purchase. This is not an exaggeration on my part. Rita was spastic. This is EXACTLY what Rita did. The frustrated look on my wife's face was heartbreaking. I said to Rita "YOU HAVE NO GRACE" and "SHAME ON YOU" and walked away from her. Shockingly, Rita walked behind me and spewed her arrogant verbal vomit at me as if she was in her own living room, which clearly is her usual self outside of the workplace. I turned around to face her and said "Do not make this worse, do not speak to me another word." The final touch of this horribly failing team of three was Dalton's denying the likelihood of our being able to have a $200 blazer steamed to remove the wrinkles if we were to bring it in the following day, as I suggested, when they were "open" again. He said it wasn't likely possible, despite my mentioning the electrical outlet marked "Steamer" in red letters at the entrance to the fitting rooms. I saw it. We were at the register by 7:39pm to begin our $700 purchase, while Daniella and Rita continued their usual after closing duties. It became clear to me at this time that the three of them were doing the same thing the whole time we were there. In other words, they had already began "closing" before we even walked in the door. We didn't delay them whatsoever. The three of them did this while we were left to help ourselves, which we did. In summary, this was, by far, no comparison, the worst retail experience we have ever encountered, ever, anywhere, by any type of business. This Ann Taylor store is one to be avoided. The lack of regard for customers here is at a systemic level that can only stem from it being inherent within the people managing the place. Grade: Epic F. Stay away from this one.

These backpacks are light and water resistant, sturdy and they hold a lot of items. Aloha Collection was founded in 2014 by a flight attendant named Rachel Leina'ala and Heather Aiu a native of Kauai. They both had a dream to create travel light and splash proof purses, totes, backpacks, cross body bags, duffles, diaper bags, lunch boxes and laptop cases. They feature so many unique Hawaiian patterns/prints in their design and who doesn't enjoy carrying a piece of Hawaii with them? They also offer special collections from time to time like Hello Kitty and they just came out with a Moana collection. I find their products reasonably priced and they often have some great sales. You can purchase in one of their stores located all over Hawaii, Newport Beach, Encinitas, Malibu, and Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Easiest way to purchase is online. This store was well laid out and organized. Products were easy to view and staff were helpful. Each and every year, they gave back 5% of their profits to organizations that uplift the Hawaiian islands. These non profits support perpetuation of Hawaiian culture, environmental education and community well being.
