Beauty N Kurves

not enough lingerie store in WA need more to choose from on time when one is closing or moving an not selling or open the store on Saturdays like a Unilocal-​er stated just saying there just a LADY need choices apparently there in the process of moving i called the said they not selling anything until November at the new location any referrals Unilocalers…1 star for answering the phone

I bought a Groupon deal for Beauty N Kurves as a anniversary gift for my husband. In the past month or so I have been trying to call and call and call to get an appointment and no one ever answers the phone. I have left numerous voicemails that no one has ever answered. I tried to make several appointments with their online booking link and no one ever called or emailed to confirm my appointment (which it was stated that as soon as the appointment was approved that I would receive a confirmation). I tried to schedule a preconsultation for today, I never received a confirmation for today either, but just to humor myself, I drove 35 miles into Seattle to show up for it. My appointment was for 11:30 am, I arrived and the store was not open. I parked across the street, shopped around for a few things at Safeway and I even sat down and ordered coffee from the Starbucks inside of Safeway. By 1:15 pm no on had shown up and I gave up and drove home. I think this is ridiculous as I have made so many attempts to make an appointment just to never receive a confirmation or a call back. I have already contacted Groupon, hoping I’ll get my $ 250 back for the deal since there just seems to be no way to contact the store or the owner.

They have revamped the store to set up a private area in the back for the photography, so they no longer close the store for a photo shoot. I am happy with my pictures, the experience was fun, the staff are super nice and they look great.
Last I checked, they’re having ongoing issues with their credit card machine, so either buy the deal online if it’s still available, or be prepared to bring cash.
Also, take the time to shop for your shoot before the actual day of, they now have a wardrobe to borrow from for your session, but choosing something from the main store sales selection is no longer an option.

I would just like to start this by saying that my makeup artist was WONDERFUL and I don’t want this review to reflect on him at all.
HOWEVER, I found this place through groupon because they had a boudoir shoot. I called them the next day three different times during what’s posted as their open hours and left a message each time, I never received a call back. When I finally got ahold of someone, I scheduled my appointment and I was told I would receive a reminder call the day before and an email questionnaire. I never received either of those. When I showed up to my appointment, they were surprised I was there and they told me that they thought I was supposed to be there two hours earlier. Maybe if they had confirmed my appointment, they wouldn’t have been surprised!
I made it through my session without much direction, however I did have a fun time doing it. I scheduled a time to come back in two days to review through my pictures. That day, I called earlier in the day to ask if I could come in sooner (I didn;t want to get stuck in traffic) and I was told that that was fine. However, when I showed up, they were surprised to see me again! I guess the lady who had talked to me on the phone never relayed my message! Going through my pictures, they were all something that I could have had a friend do for me. They weren’t very professional looking and I was told they would come in the mail three days ago but they still haven’t arrived.
All in all, I’m moderately satisfied with my pictures, but I wish I had spent my money elsewhere. Not only were they very unprofessional, but they just didn’t do that great of a job.

I hate to write this because the makeup artist who helped me was super nice and attentive so this review does not reflect him by any means.
I found this place via groupon who was offering a boudoir deal and I noticed they «sell» lingerie as well too. They call themselves an «upscale boutique» Um no, you are a dirty lingerie consignment shop. I was immediately taken aback at how messy this place was. Stuff was everywhere and when I asked where my size might be, he said «stuff is mixed in» So I walked around and tried to locate my size, no luck. In fact they really didn’t have much of a size range at all. Most of the lingerie looked used and worn, washed but worn looking. Lacy items had started to fall apart, which tells me it was cheap lingerie to begin with or someone doesn’t know how to wash or handle lingerie. Remember how I said they offer photoshoots? Well if you get a shoot done there you get access to the stores lingerie apparel, which explains why what they sell looks like something out of a goodwill bin.
Eventually I did find a corset I liked, it was cheap and all I needed, I wasn’t looking to make a hefty investment. So when I went to purchase the item, he didn’t have a bag so tossed it in an old crinkled Nordstrom bag with some tacky gold tissue paper… so if you’re looking for lingerie to purchase, go somewhere else. Oh and if you’re looking to get a boudoir shoot done, go look at their photos for a good laugh and then go somewhere else.

It is with regret that I am giving this shop a poor review. They seemed like they had quality products, however I didn’t have time to enjoy them. The lady who owns the shop is very personable but very unprofessional. I was offered a place in a fashion show for her and showed up for what I thought was our scheduled meeting. I waited for 2 hours while her HUSBAND ran the place, and when told I would be contacted in a couple weeks never did. I called back several times and never received a call back. They may have cuter products thanvictoria secret but I wonder how they keep regular customers if they don’t run their business right.

I had a similar situation to Shauna. I needed shapewear to wear a formal gown to a red carpet affair and I was ecstatic to find somewhere that specialized in it (so I didn’t end up just settling with whatever was at Macy’s). I tried more than once to call Beauty N Kurves and showed up at their location well within their posted hours (Not open at 12:15 on a Saturday?). I could not get any response nor manage to find their shop open. Their website and facebook pages gave no further hints either.
I peeked inside and it looked like they had lots of amazing stuff. Maybe they are just focused on their online presence now? I don’t know, but I had to give up and settle on Macy’s.

Absolutely fantastic selection of gorgeous, colourful lingerie for a lot of sizes. I ran into many G and H cups while browsing. I was really impressed with the sales staff; Charlotte was knowledgeable about her inventory and what might fit me, and was happy to take down my email address to notify me of future inventory in my difficult-​to-​find size. This is a great local business hidden away across from the main entrance of Safeway in lower Queen Anne.

Life is tough for a curvaceous lady in the rainy city… our high heels gets puddle-​stained, perfectly coiffed hair gets drenched and cold-​weather induced dry skin doesn’t exactly tickle anyone’s pickle!
But when I walked into this little treasure chest the other day, it felt like a warm miracle. I was a child in the proverbial candy store! I’ve had my eyes on this boutique since I moved into the neighborhood a month ago. Sexy little sparkly things on the window… how can I resist?
AND they have plenty of spicy choices for my secrets that Victoria never kept! For nearly an hour, I reveled in leather corsets, embellished crystal encrusted bras, lace panties and YES, they have a serious shapewear collection to control those curves into that perfect hourglass shape you’ve always desired! Want to ADD curves? With a plush (and comfortable) selection of push-​up bras and booty boosters (YAY!!!) you REALLY can have it all!
Curvy is beautiful and the next time you need a sexy little pick-​me-​up, come on by the sexiest spot in Queen Anne and let Patrice show you how to maximize that inner bombshell — MEOW!!!

Yes… yes, yes!
Beauty N Kurves does it right. Stay away from Victoria’s, ladies… THIS is the place to go!
The owners were incredibly helpful. Despite having just packed up their best items for a show they were attending the next morning… and my coming in shortly before closing, they took their time to find me the perfect items for my upcoming weekend away.
They even opened up their packed truck and boxes to pull out a couple items I had asked for — and a few more that they recommended (one of which ended up to be absolutely perfect!)
Thanks again for everything — I truly appreciate the help and your adorable selection. I’ll definitely be back very soon!
