Here We Go Again

Okay, first I must confess that I have no sense of style. It's not that I haven't tried, it's that I was raised by a single dad who didn't have the backup of his mom or his sisters when I was growing up. Shopping at most stores intimidates me. I don't know what goes with what, I feel underdressed each time I step into the mall, and when I ask for help, I'm either get the snooty treatment or I'm seen as an easy mark. All that ended when I started shopping at Here We Go Again. I love Chris and all of her employees. I'll try on things I would NEVER try on at a large store, and I've found some styles that really flatter me. They'll also tell me if something is just not quite right, even if I absolutely love it. The best part is that I can put together a beautiful outfit (complete with shoes, bag, and accessories) and not have to pay $500! I now dress better than I ever have in the past and I pay much less than I ever thought possible. I work in a non-profit and never thought I'd be wearing desinger clothes to work! Here We Go Again also has sportswear; I have a nice collection of Dri-Fit and other non-Nike apparel to wear to the gym. I can't recommend this store enough. My sister and my girlfriends have all been dragged in, and have all loved it. It's worth the trip, especially if you're popping into the Hollywood Fred Meyer just down the street. You never know what gem you might discover.

Pros: great staff, great selection, honest feedback

Cons: if you love it and it's the wrong size, it's the only one. Such is the nature of consignment.

This is my first ever review and I chose Here We Go Again because that is my ultimate favorite shop in town. I mean from the moment you enter the store till you leave the experience is pure joy and has been consistently like that since I started shopping there since 2004. The staff, the personal attention, the quality & selection of clothes, and the owner herself (who BTW is at the Broadway store almost every single day!!), are just AMAZING! And the store manager at the Jones Landing store, is a super great person to meet. Often, they even remember your name. How cool is that?! You can't help but to enjoy your time at both locations. They give you their truly honest opinions about how the items, you picked to try on, look on you and never ever say things like: oh, you look so good in that purple blouse when clearly that is not your color. I ALWAYS feel good about what I get there. Their inventory changes every day as new consignments are coming in. They take only the BEST stuff. And that is what they should do. They are a business and they do and take what is best for them. They know exactly what sells and they have to be particular. And that was true for their recycled wedding gowns while part of their business. Of course, there may be some mistakes occasionally by new associates in staff, but don't we all make those mistakes when we start a new job? That is how we learn. You can bring in clothes from Nordstrom or other high end boutiques BUT if they are not the latest and greatest they'll be rejected. And if you don't like it or feel emotional about your clothes being rejected than don't bring them in. Plus, if you want 'any' kind of used clothes go to Goodwill or something like that, but if you want the TOP NOTCH stuff with the latest style in fashion, spotless, cleaned, and at a great price I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HERE WE GO AGAIN. I love you guys. You all are AWESOME!! I'll come in today. PS: I love their business concept: RECYCLING!

Pros: excellent quality, variety, and customer service. Parking is actually not bad at all

Cons: none
