    2. If I do not like something can I return it?

      All sales are final unless it somehow breaches our authenticity guarantee which can be found here. Our consignors are paid out when their consigned items sell.

      However, we will assist you, in the event, you would want to resell/consign items back to the boutique. We just ask that you ask all relevant questions or request additional photos prior to purchasing.

      3. Are your designer items authentic?

      We guarantee the authenticity of every item we sell since authenticity & your trust is our most important standard. Each consignor guarantees all items consigned to be authentic. The authentication of each piece is inspected & researched to the best of our ability. If we cannot authenticate the item or determine the authenticity, we will not sell it. In the event of a super fake does get past us, we offer 100% money back guaranteed. All items are authenticated prior to going on the selling floor. This authenticity policy can also be seen here.

      4. Do you do holds on items?

      Due to us being a consignment boutique, we cannot do holds. However, we do offer a 30-day layaway plan that allows you to guarantee your purchase is yours and yours alone.

      6. Do you have to be local to sell with your boutique?

      ***All Special Occasion dresses must be accompanied by a dry cleaner receipt or tags/bag from the dry cleaner. The only exception to this policy would be if the gown's tag states "Do not dry clean". 

      8. Do you buyout items outright and give cash on the spot?
