The Clothes Closet

I’ve only been to this shop twice as it is far away from my neighborhood, but I’ve had a great experience both times. The store is easily laid out and not overwhelmingly stuffed like many consignment stores. Today I found a great pair of sorrel boots that were half the price that I had seen at another consignment store the week before. And to boot I found a sweet black puffy coat that is sharp, yet easy to wear everyday. When I am in LO I will definitely swing by the clothes closet.

If you are looking for great stuff you should check this place out. I have no idea why people feel the need to be so rude but I’m wondering if they were at the same place. Every time I go into The Clothes Closet I am greeted with a warm hello and what can I help you find today? She is always eager to get a room started for me. It’s honestly just like shopping at a department store but with the feel of a personal shopper! You should stop by and tell your friends about it too!

I was in the area and decided to do some shopping to kill time. I looked up consignment stores and the clothes closet popped up.
I enter and started to browse for maybe two minutes before I was greeted and asked if I was looking for anything and I said I was looking for some vintage designer clothing. Kim I believe was the sales person didn’t seems to want to help me or go out of her way to step away from the counter, btw she wasn’t doing anything. I then asked if there were any other consignments stores and she paused and didn’t seem like she wanted to give me any names. I decided to leave right after that.
She was very unfriendly and very unwelcoming. Btw the store was selling a Pendleton jacket from the 80s. I believe that’s vintage !!! The store isn’t up to date with fashion, offering older Trina Turk and Pendleton and pointed toe pumps. I suggest go else where to shop consignment with more approachable sales people.

Nice quality, clean upscale clothes, shoes, and bags. The downside: prices here are markedly higher than other consignment shops in the area. You can find the occasional deal on a markdown; but, otherwise, you’ll pay. I appreciate the fact that you don’t find dirty or over-​worn items here (and I did get a nice pair of boots), but, it’s not a bargain shopper’s paradise.

I was told about the shop from my hairdresser. I have found several great jeans here– designer jeans. I couldn’t afford them brand new, but here, I can. I love supporting a local business. I always feel welcome, and I like the style of clothes that she carries. The other consignment store in Lake Oswego I’ve been to is not anywhere near this one. Check it out you won’t be disappointed.

I’ve been here twice now. The first time I managed to find a cute Boden skirt and Kut jeans for about $ 10 each. The second time I went, everything was marked WAY too high. For instance, the cotton long sleeve shirts were marked at $ 22. That might be okay for new, but these are used clothes (as a comparison, I just bought two long sleeved shirts at J Crew tonight on clearance for $ 15 each NEW). I am not paying more for used clothes than I can get on the clearance rack. The store is decorated nicely, but that’s not enough for me to pay extra.

I got KICKED OUT. Yes, ironically, I the Duchess was asked to leave.
Your doors were open and people were walking in so what am I to think? I do realize now that you were open for a special event but you could have been polite about the whole thing and allowed me to look around for just a couple of minutes as I did mention to you I was looking for something special. You were really rude and I won’t be back. You made me feel really unwelcome. My friends were waiting for me outside in my car and they won’t be shopping at your store in the future either. Way to alienate your potential customers.
Instead, we will continue to shop at places like Consigning Women, also in Lake Oswego. We shopped there today and several times in the past. The owners and the workers at Consigning Women have always been welcoming and gracious.
