Modlook 29

(I haven’t written a Unilocal review in a while, but I’ve been thinking about my experience since I was there yesterday and this is really bothering me…)
Haven’t been to Westwood since I graduated almost 4 years ago. I was walking around to see what’s changed when I stumbled upon this store! The colors and the storefront were very attractive to my eye, so I marched right in! I found a super cute chiffon dress that I knew I wanted right away. I thought the price tag was confusing so I had to ask the worker (It just says 1pc, 3pc, 6pc. at first I was wondering if this was related to wholesale…) But I like the idea of
«saving more» when you buy more (hah, if life were that easy!). I was in a rush so I only found 2 things I wanted for sure. I found this 2set item that wasn’t on the sale rack, but it was on sale, it said «Special Price: $ 20.» (
). I really like tweed and I really like 2pc set things… (Although I was told that the outfit wouldn’t show midriff)… Anyhow. The sales associate gushed about how it was my style and would match really well with me (I already know my style, but thanks for the confirmation…) So I decided to get it.
And then my total was like $ 90 something. I knew the dress was ~50 including tax, but then what? So I asked and she said both the top and the bottom were $ 20 each… I tried to point out that when you buy the original price 2pc sets, it’s just whatever price is on there… And then she sort of agreed with me. But then she said she had to call the owner and asked. And then the owner didn’t pick up, she’s in another state right now… She said that that was how something else on the $ 15 sale rack was charged too… Meanwhile, I was thinking. The original price was $ 70something and even if it were $ 40, that’s not TOO bad. But the point is, the price tag says $ 20. I was expecting to get it for $ 20. She said she couldn’t just sell it to me for $ 20, so I (remember, I was in a rush?) was just like, «I’ll just get the dress.»
I keep thinking about now, a day after, because I’m sort of bummed. Like she gushed me into wanting that item even more. And in the end, I didn’t even get it. It doesn’t make sense that when the item is original price, it would have ONE barcode, with a price of $ 76… But once it’s on sale and it says «special price: $ 20» It all of a sudden becomes TWO barcodes that you scan both? (I don’t know what was showing up on the screen, but I’m pretty sure there were 2 things listed)… If anything, it should say, «Special price: $ 40»… That’s like false advertising isn’t it? If I hadn’t been paying attention, it would’ve been sold to me for $ 40, and if I decided I didn’t want it for $ 40, I would’ve (reading other people’s reviews) only gotten store credit back. And what if I didn’t want to shop online? It’ll be a while till I come back to Westwood, and therefore I would’ve basically lost $ 40. What.
The more I think about it, the more annoyed I get. /​changes from 3-​star to 2-​star… I REALLY like the dress I bought, but I should feel HAPPY when I go shopping… I love shopping! But if this is bothering me the day after, then something’s wrong. I would go back to get other things one day, but I would be wary of what I’m being charged.

Went in and bought a dress for a company event. I ended up not wearing the dress and went in to return it the next day. I specified clearly that it was my first time shopping at Modlook29 when I initially got the dress and yet it was not made aware to me that there are no refunds. When I brought it up to the associate, she told me that it’s stated in the receipt emailed to me. How is that relevant if it entails me buying the item to read that I can’t return it? I’m sorry but that’s bad company ethic

Pushiest sales associates I have ever come across. Every item I picked off the rack I felt like they were breathing down my back. Not even in the fitting room do they give you your space.
Please, let people have their space while shopping :) I am specifically not coming back for that reason.

India and Anna are so beyond helpful. They really help you find what you are looking for without pushing you to buy! I went in for my sisters bachelorette party dress and they just were more than helpful to show me what they thought would work for me. So nice! Very rare gem for great prices. Thank you ladies!

If you’re looking for cute dress, here is ur best choice, and Trixia is soooo nice and friendly!!!

I went in to the boutique looking for a present for my girlfriend. The staff was helpful and made my job really easy. They chose the outfit and all I had to do was pay. It was affordable too. All good in this hood :)

Pros: They have really cute clothes, on trend styles and organized in a way where it’s easy to find whatever you’re looking for.
Cons: The sales associates are very overbearing and pushy which ruins the shopping experience. Sizes are limited to only small medium and large and they often run out of sizes, especially because a lot of them run small. In addition prices seem too high for some of their more plain pieces & I could get the same items at other stores for MUCH less.

Modlook 29 is a cramped store that’s well organized. The sales associates are nice but a bit pushy. As soon as I walked in, the sales associate started plucking things off of the rack as if she knew what I wanted. I started to get the sense that they work for commission when she had an armful of clothes ready for me to try on. Very sweet though. I think they hire people with a good eye for trends. They’re the redeeming aspect of this store. I think that if you’re looking to bring more variety into your wardrobe or have no idea how to dress, the sales associates and their advice could be very helpful.
The clothes here are cute, but they seem overpriced for the quality. In fact, I got something that can apparently be bought off of those cheapo import websites like Aliexpress for much cheaper. Someone brought this to my attention when I showed them the clothes I bought from Modlook 29, and I saw the item listing on Aliexpress and everything. I felt pressured into buying, and unfortunately I can’t return what I bought because I washed it already. A bit of a waste, but at least my overpriced clothes were cute… let’s see if they hold up… I’ve learned my lesson though. I don’t think I’ll be back. I was hoping for a unique boutique, but I have a hunch they just import cheap garments and slap their label onto them.

This is a small, well organized store but the sales people there are too pushy for me. I hate when someone tries to pick out clothes for me because I already know what I like and don’t like within a second of laying my eyes on a piece of clothing and do not need a personal shopper in a store the size of my bedroom. Most of the pieces there are overpriced for the quality as well.

In the heart of ucla square you can find Modlook 29.
Super cute young styles at affordable prices. The girls were very helpful with styling and choices.
Check out the new hot summer selections on the site too
If you are visiting there is parking all around on the street or the parking deck on Broxton first two hours free.

Wonderful customer service. Walked in with no knowledge of the store, and fell in love with a lot of the clothes. The two sales associates in the store were very helpful with helping me decide on what to try on. even though I left empty handed today, I will certainly be back to visit before I head back home to virginia.

I never write reviews but for this store, I will. I came in looking for a dress and found the perfect one! I met the owner, Trixia, who was beyond sweet and made sure I found and liked what I wanted. The clothes are reasonably priced and I love the fact that they also cater to petite girls! There are very cute colors and styles in stock so it’s hard to leave empty handed! This is now my favorite boutique in Westwood and I’m definitely going to shop here more often :)

I randomly discovered this gem while looking for another store and now I can’t get enough of this place!
It’s a small boutique but they have a really wide selection of clothing. They’re known for their rompers. I’ve never liked or worn rompers but after coming here I’ve already bought 3! I love this place. Plus the owner and staff are really sweet and helpful!

This store has some cute pieces, and the price point is reasonable. However, the sales associates are so annoying. They must get paid on commission or something. I’m the kind of person who likes to shop in peace. They are pushy and won’t stop complimenting you no matter how shitty your outfit looks.

Got my new favorite sweater here!
I wasn’t really a fan of the style (despite loving mod clothes, they weren’t really appealing to fuller girls). However, the girl behind the register would comment on my choices and give me hints. Usually I’d be annoyed at someone telling me how to dress, but she was so sweet about it that I was excited. I ended up buying a sweater in a large size on sale (I’m a size small), but I think it’s because the girl was sooo sweet.

Found some really cute outfits last minute here. Their sizes are great, not too small or large. Their pricing is strange, but easy to understand. They have one price for everything and the more you but the cheaper each item becomes. Very trendy, great dresses for going out for all occasions/​reasons. Cute bags too! I will be going back.

Great online shopping experience! Would love to stop in the store someday. I purchased a jacket and dress for my daughter, and she loved both of them. Will definitely order from this company again.

Great clothing store! I came here in search of some gifts for my girlfriend and ended up walking out with several items.
Being a guy going shopping for a girl, can be quite intimidating with the selections, sizes, and styles. Fortunately, I had a lot of help with the staff here in picking out the perfect selections. The choices were perfect and she was delighted with my fashion purchases.
Great music and energy, as well as a bright friendly staff! Definitely recommend this boutique!

Good for: cute daytime dresses, sexy/​cute going out dresses, crop tops, tanks, layering pieces (sweaters, loose flowy tops), rompers and playsuits, statement necklaces. Price point: comparable to H & M :-)
Look no further if cute, short dresses are a staple in your wardrobe and you’re bored of H & M and Urban (and in the case of Urban, bored to death with the price to quality ratio, which I think we can all admit is horrible). Modlook 29 has tons of adorable little dresses, different than what you’ll see at the major chains, and all at a price point comparable to H & M, in many cases better. The pricing gets better as you purchase more items, and you can mix and match with pretty much all the items in the store, including the cute bags and statement necklaces. I fell hard for the dresses (both daytime and nighttime), the crop tops (tons of variety in styles and variable sexiness), the sweaters (I loved many, but managed to walk out with just one, a cropped pullover with multicolored iridescent yarn that I receive tons of compliments on), and one statement necklace in particular. I still think about the sunnies and the bags… and the other necklaces and sweaters… Anyway, if you need something to wear tonight and you’re sick of everything you own, or if you feel like your wardrobe needs a good stocking up, and you want bang for your buck, this is the place– go here first, don’t waste your time at Urban, H & M, or American Apparel, because you’re going to find something cuter, more different, at a better price, at Modlook 29.
