C. Wonder

This store location is now CLOSED. All other retail stores around the country are set to close as well! Tis a sad time :(

I love love loveeee this store. My sister kinda tuned me in to the story behind this place. I love all the monogram items and how adorable everything is. The best part is that they consistently have good sales. Today I went to buy Christmas gifts and my $ 100 purchase turned out to be a $ 50 because they were having a huge sale! Everything was already marked down significantly, and then your entire purchase was also 50% off! Awesome!!!
The only downside? I asked for gift boxes for everything I bought and they were only giving out one per purchase. Really?! Kinda annoying considering a bought a lot of stuff. But the actual gift boxes are the CUTEST things!

By far the best thing about C. Wonder is all the colors and cute patterns. In addition, the employees are all friendly and you can monogram everything (if that’s what you’re into). This store is decorated so beautifully, it’s so colorful and fun, you’re bound to be excited when you walk into it. I wish my apartment looked like this store!
My favorite items in the store are their home décor stuff. They are mostly located in the back and they have very cute plates, bowls, cups, etc. When they are on sale, they’re a huge steal.
When you purchase something, the bags they give you are very cute and colorful as well. Definitey check it out!

I walked into C wonder because a friend of mine told me about the awesome clothes and accessories they have. Plus the «Extra 50% off clearance» sign at the door lead me in through the door.
I walk in and was immediately greeted by the girl behind the counter, I was already picking clothes on my way to the clearance area when she stopped me and asked if she can start a fitting room for me. Why yes you can! :-)
The clothes run a little bigger in size, so don’t be alarmed if you get 2 sizes smaller than what you usually wear.
They have a lot of cute stuff here and the «dog» theme is very adorable! I even found a dachshund painted plate!
I ended up spending more than I wanted, but it was all worth it.

I wasn’t very familiar with C. Wonder when it came into the retail scene, but I like the concept of it being a one-​stop shop for women — carrying apparel, accessories, home goods and other novelties. Then I read somewhere that Tory Burch’s ex Chris Burch is the brains behind the company, and so somehow that lends some street cred to them as some sort of a luxury goods store.
They have items to fit every budget and every need. I stopped by once while they were having their 40% off for Friends and Family sale, and I managed to snag one of their cute li’l «C» logo totes for my mom. The sales associate who helped me gave me full attention and even carefully wrapped the tote for me.
It’s a nice, colorful and pretty spot and if you’re looking for a unique gift to give someone, this might just be the place to find it.

I would give the online store 2 stars but thanks to Sherri (spelling?) at the Fashion Valley store, C. Wonder receives 5 stars from me. I ordered 7 sets of monogram cheeseboard+spread knives+wine toppers online. I called the online customer service and specifically informed them that my order is intended to be given as gifts and I asked if the items came in C. Wonder packaging. The rep said that they do so I proceeded with the order. To my disappointment, I received the items only packed in bubble wrap contrary to what the online rep told me. I called the store in Fashion Valley and told them my dilemma and they were happy to help exchange the items with the same exact ones that come packaged as gifts. It was quite a mess but there was no notion of frustration or impatience from Sherri as she exchanged the items. In fact, she apologized and even gave me complimentary earrings as a gift for the inconvenience that I went through. I’ve always liked this store and they give me reasons to come back. Thank you, C. Wonder Fashion Valley for always being cheery and helpful!

I was beyond excited when I saw the ‘coming soon’ sign for this store, FINALLY some NYC goodness comes to the San Diego shopping scene!
Sadly I missed the grand opening, but decided to venture out with all of the other crazies on Black Friday at midnight. To my surprise this was one of the only stores without a line… which means for a little while longer how awesome this store is could be my little secret!
I will say I was a bit disappointed in the size of the store, but given the clueless market here that could be why. Luckily I can still shop all their other goodies online:)
Overall, the merchandise was great, loved all the jewelry, home goods in the back and the clothing. The colors are bright & cheerful, it’s well organized, has knowledgeable staff and boasts unique finds compared to the other stores at Fashion Valley. It’s the perfect store to purchase a gift or a special little something for yourself, and they have price points starting at $ 25 for some really beautiful pieces.
Definitely a fine addition, and I look forward to some after Christmas sale shopping!
