The Embellished Room

DO NOT buy clothes here if you are looking for something that will last you. I bought a dress here recently and it’s already falling apart after 2 wears. I wasn’t doing anything rigorous to make it fall apart. The fabric and the craftsmanship are of very poor quality just like the H&M and Forever 21 giants (to name a few). The clothes here are $ 39.99 and under for a reason. Keep that in mind. The worst part is, I don’t believe there is any point in trying to return what I bought because the return policy is quite strict. Store credit only and one time exchange means that there is zero chance of me getting any actual cash back.
I do think that a lot of the dresses are stylish, but they are definitely not for everybody. I would classify a lot of stuff as feminine, girly, or chic. This is definitely not a place for people wanting something punky or tomboyish.
Lastly, I noticed that there’s always just one person there. I asked out of curiosity one time if anyone else comes in if it gets busy. Guess what: no, it’s the same person the whole day by themselves, they only make minimum wage, and they get no actual break. — To me, this sounds like these workers are being taken advantage of. They seem to be managing themselves and doing EVERYTHING, yet they are totally underpaid. In the world of retail you will never get paid enough, however this store definitely doesn’t seem like a good place to apply to if you are looking for employment.

Their items are unique and one of a kind, there is often a slight or obvious twist int the design, fabric, or shapes of the garments. The price is pretty good for most of the items 20 – 40 and they seem to have a new promotion everytime I walk by.
My only issue with this place is that I often see the same items being re rotated in the stock, season after season for the same price, for example, this winter I saw a dress I bought about a year and a half ago with the same price.

I have walked by this place time and again on my lunch break. Today I had some extra time, and the air conditioning was beckoning me!
I am so glad I stopped in, because they are stocked to the ceiling* with what I like to call brunch dresses. Easy, casual, light dresses you can just throw on. Their stuff is really on-​trend and they have a good range of sizes. They have pants and tops, too, but their dresses are fantastic. And everything is still only $ 29.99.
*don’t worry, not literally.

The Embellished Room offers an array of clothing for women looking for something trendy but not wanting to break the bank.
Every item here (with the exception of some sale items) is $ 29.99. At this price, many of the finds here would be considered a steal, but for some items (like a simple t-​shirt) the $ 29.99 flat rate seems a little over-​priced. I find the majority of their clothing is lacking in the quality department and I don’t feel the price justifies the fact that your garment may or may not last you more than 2 washes in the laundry. That being said, I do have a few pieces from TER that I love and have lasted me throughout the years.
Extra props goes out to the fabric bags they GIVE you when you buy something, and they don’t try stuffing 12 768 articles of clothing in one tiny bag. (American Apparel– take note)
I would recommend making absolutely sure that you actually want what you’re buying (try some stuff on, sleep on it, then come back to buy if you really want it). Inspect the garment (s) and ensure there are no rips, tears, or stains. Exchanging stuff here is a BIG hassle.
Note their return policy (as written on their receipt):
No refunds. One time exchange only on $ 29.99 items with original receipt within 14 days and cannot be exchanged for other price point items. If there is a price markdown on an item and it is being exchanged, the new price would be what the customer would get as credit when exchanging regardless of the original price paid. Tags must be on item. Sale/​off season items cannot be exchanged. Store credits are valid for a period of 3 months from the date of issuance.
The Embellished Room holds the right to change/​discontinue any promotion without notice. All products purchased must be checked by customer before leaving the store. Any claims or damages after wards will not be allowed. Scanned register price will be taken as correct and final price.
