Christina Ltd. — Local services in Westerly

I want to post this in reviews, it won't let me? Above & Beyond review Christinas Ltd clothing shop Westerly: I am local about 20 mins away. My husband & I decided to spend a rare night out. We went to the United in Westerly for an Improv show. Oooph… I was freezing we all know the effect of a nice summer evening & then you hit the A/C. Hence, I had 2-3 minutes to find a “sweater” before the show started. I ran out of the theatre & into one of the ONLY shops open; Christinas on the corner. IMO, I somewhat rudely ran into the store & said I need something reasonably affordable to keep me warm at the show. The woman who waited on me (I now, know as Kim) dropped everything she was doing, as I was running around like a loon; & I finally found a “short” zip up jacket myself for $79.00 & thought, “this will do”. BUT, Kim came around the corner & said WAIT, come here & try this on; Kim put me in a beautiful long crocheted white LONG “duster” for $69. WOW in front of the mirror, along with my already white dress I looked like a Princess rather than a “tennis player” LOL With that service I assume she was the owner, but no, my husband & I visited again on 7/14/23 and AGAIN 1 of the only shops open in Westerly @ 8pm on a beautiful summer FRIDAY evening they were OPEN, even though tons of people were “window shopping” elsewhere, Christinas had a fair share of at least 8 woman in their shop “buying”. I bought more items bath oil & a vase. HEADS UP rest of Westerly businesses, when tons of people are still walking around weekend evenings & a but lightheaded from beer & wine, selling them your wares is a VERY GOOD...

I bought a dress from the sale rack. It was 50% off which was great. Tags did not say as is. I wore the dress to work and my colleague told me it was ripped down the back where a body part was exposed. Mind you I had stopped at Starbucks prior I going to work. So a little humiliating to say the least. Because I just took the tag off that morning I was able to tell the manager about the issue and that I had the tag. She told me they put damaged products on the sale rack and questioned me as to why I did not see the hole. Maybe because it was on the seam and it was hidden to a degree when I tried it on. They told me they would do nothing for me. And again she continues to seem confused and questioned me again. Living locally I would stop in occasionally to support her business. Never again. They literally rip you off....

This place is HORRIBLE. I went with a friend in Watch Hill because she had been there before, and I could not believe how ugly and overpriced this place was. Not only that but the lady working was extremely rude and snooty (making me feel like I didnt belong in such a boutique, which I didn't because the biggest size they have is a size 4!!!!), she spent the whole time we were there on her phone! This was 2 weeks ago. Small blonde girl. Very rude! WOULD...
