| - I don't come here often, but I do when I want to try on expensive hand creams and relax in a great atmosphere. The Jo Malone fragrances are heavenly (ask for samples!) and the clothes are just so pretty, especially DvF wrap dresses that I can't afford and promise myself that one day I shall own one.
I went here to buy some jeans because I tried on H&M, F21, Gap and all the other cheap culprits for skinny jeans I could find. Those pants just DO NOT fit on me. I have a very stick straight body with a high, but slim waist. Cheap jeans are usually way too big in the waist if they fit in the legs, and/or too low-rise (ick...)
My body is just made for premium denim (alas) although I loathe paying the price. I'd rather spend $170 on great denim than $30 on something I hate to wear.
I went through their Boxing Day Sales Rack, picked out 50 jeans and narrowed it down to 2. I ended up buying the Citizens for $170 (OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but I love them because they're perfect for my body (high waisted works on me to stay on my body and not slide down), and a second pair, which I later returned.
My only reason for not giving a full 5 stars is because the saleslady there was both aggressive and snotty. I was asked my opinion in the dressing room by the saleswoman about another woman trying on jeans.
This poor woman had a fabulous body but in True Religion jeans, her butt looked flat, long and very strange. She said she usually has the opposite problem (perky, big butt which I did not see on her to be brutally honest).
The saleswoman was trying to make her commission by lying to this poor lady, and when they asked me to weigh in, I gave her my honest opinion and told her to put them back on the rack as they were unflattering.
I got the evil eye stare from the saleslady, but a grateful ' THANK YOU' from the lovely woman after that, but hey... don't ask me if you don't want me to dish out honesty to your clients.
I saved that lady $300 and a flat butt look.
At the counter, when I was holding 2 pairs of jeans, she gave me another attitude problem when I couldn't figure out which one I wanted. She wasn't as nice and was LAZY in trying to help me find 26, 27 or 28 sizes of jeans in skinny styles on the rack (okay, so she didn't even try to help, which made it worse because there was NO ONE ELSE THERE).
She also tried to tell me that $170 was CHEAP for the jeans, (2 for the price of one!) to get me to buy both of them, but who is she kidding? These jacked up Canadian prices at $270 - $300 each mean that in the U.S. these fake "sales" of 60% off are considered full price at $170 - $180.
Service? Meh. Some associates are great, others are just.. ugh. Too snotty for words because I don't waste my money or my words.
