ABOUT:
DressBarn opened up in 1962, and ever since has been focusing on the needs and desires of women. It is a store who prides themselves on their reputation for quality, style, value, and customer service. It is also an ever-changing store that provides its own private labels and contemporary fashions at a great value. Currently, there are over 800 stores across the country.
MY THOUGHTS:
Okay so I honestly have not been to DressBarn in a very long time. I just never popped into the store as I just never really thought about it. Well yesterday I plopped my son in the umbrella stroller and we walked up and down the strip mall near my house and I decided to stop in. The store looks just like a regular store out of the mall as everything is nicely displayed and arranged. The best part of DressBarn is that it caters to women that need bigger sizes including sizes 4-16 and 14-24. The store is separated into two sections of the sizes of clothes, but also carries shoes, jewelry, purses, leggings, and more! I was really impressed with how much was jammed into the store, but it was not cluttered or messed up at all! If there weren’t so many customers and associates I would have taken pictures, but I didn’t want them to think I was weird!
The prices in the store were also very reasonable, many items on sale or Buy 1, Get 1 50% off. The jewelry was also just marked down to 60% an associate showed me. I found an adorable black light cover-up to wear over tank tops that I will be taking with me to BlogHer this year, to dress up my outfit a little bit! It is a great store for summertime though as there are cute sandals, jewelry, and tank tops to shop from. There are also a bunch of cute dresses perfect for any summer occasion or just because! If my 2 year old wasn’t whining I probably would have looked more closely at the jewelry, but at least it gives me something to look forward to next time! I definitely recommend checking out DressBarn if you are tired of seeing women wearing the same clothes as you or want to check out some new styles at affordable prices! An associate also told me that there will probably be some good Back to School specials coming up!
