MODA Boutique
Although I don’t get to shop at MODA Boutique all that often, I would highly recommend it to any woman who wants unique fashion picked out especially for you. I shied away from the store at first because of the “boutique” prices and the fact that I couldn’t envision the clothes on my body. I severely lack creativity when it comes to fashion.
But one day, when the store was not busy, I let Claire pick out a few things for me to try on and I was extremely impressed with how awesome I felt in the clothes. I must have tried on 20 items, all hand picked for me and my body type, and I loved all but 3 tops. Of course, I couldn’t afford the other 17, but I walked out with 3 pieces I still wear as often as I can.
And let me tell you, whenever I wear a MODA piece, I get compliments out the wa-zoo. “I love that top. It is so unique”, “Where did you get that beautiful top!?”, etc., etc. The pricetag may be more than I would pay for most of my clothes, but no one ever comments on the $20 top from Target. And it usually breaks down much sooner than anything from this store.
The icing on the MODA cake came when the owner, Meredith Fidler, convinced me to try on some jeans. I refused for the first few visits, but finally let her pick out some jeans for me. After a few tries, we’d found a pair that fit me perfectly, stretched where it needed to stretch and made my ass look amazing. I’m sorry, but it did. That’s the moment I knew I could really trust that Meredith really just wanted me to feel good in my clothes.
There is no pressure to buy when you go into MODA, but if you go in, let them pick out a few pieces for you to try and you won’t be able to resist!
