Purpose Boutique — Local services in Kirkland

Arianna (Ari) is SO INCREDIBLE, and this boutique is on point! I walked into Purpose owning literally zero winter clothing (lived in Florida and Phoenix all my life) and Ari greeted me warmly and listened to my goal, then did ALL of my personal shopping for me (upon my request), my styling and coordinating, and helping me build a versatile Seattle wardrobe with quality pieces that could all be mixed and matched and made me feel so beautiful (and warm!). The materials here are all soft and luscious and very high quality. Ari only needed to ask a few thoughtful questions about my preferences, took one brief look at my waist and everything she brought me was extremely flattering, complemented my skin tone, and on point for what I needed!! And- ha- didn’t shame me at all when I admitted I have become totally out of touch with trends, but instead gently educated me on style tips, including coordinating shoes, how to roll pants, how to extend the look of my height, understanding layering… even offered her number so that I could ask questions or get advice later. Ari: You are so kind and talented. Extra bonus- this store gives a percentage of proceeds to charity to help women. Win win win. Thanks Ari and Purpose Boutique, I’ll be back!!!...

I received a top for my birthday this year from this shop. I live in Seattle, and was unable to get to the shop until about a week ago. I browsed the space first, and decided to opt for store credit so I could return after the impending delivery of my second baby. When I attempted to return the top, the store clerk accused me of purchasing the top from the sales rack and attempting to return it for full price. After asking her to examine the receipt she then informed me that I was beyond the window for returns. I explained that I did not live in the area, and she shrugged and told me I could not return the top. I left the store frustrated and disappointed. It is likely they could have easily sold the top on their sale rack, and I would have returned to spend my store credit, plus my own additional cash on other items in their store. As it stands now, I have spread the news to all my friends to NOT shop here due to their rigid and backwards return policies. I will not be returning...

Cary is my GIRL! Every time I go in I feel absolutely taken care of and like I have my own personal stylist. Her recommendations are always so on point with my style and she always pulls fun pieces for me to check out. She is so genuine in her affirmations and helping me find perfect pieces without ever pressuring me to purchase. She remembers our conversations and things I mention that it feels like catching up and shopping with a friend. I highly recommend becoming a VIP because the early sale shopping days are the best. My boyfriend loves coming in, sipping on some champagne, and hanging out with the team while I am shopping and catered to a personalized experience. While I wish I could keep this all a secret, I can’t recommend enough checking out this store and...
