I have visited the shop several times and I have purchased some lovely swing dresses, as well as a circular underskirt which looks great wth the dresses. I have had lots of compliments about the dresses. I have been very pleased with my purchases and will definitely be going to the shop again.

I have driven one hour to here and shop was closed. Checked website and the shop suppose to be open today. PM the shop staff and staff said the shop will not be open at Thursday during the January. If they put this notice in their website will be really helpful. NOT all the customer will check ALL your previous post. I really don't want give the bad review, but after I PM the staff. The staff not even apologise, I think I should give this shop 1 star on review.
