I know Everybody Raves About Barron's But...
... I just HAVE to add my 2 cents
I went to Barrons at Tri-County a few weeks ago to pick out a head piece.
I told him what I was looking for (just simply put 'I'm looking for a headpiece') LOL
Now... before I get into this - there is a little bit of back story. I've gone headpiece shopping many times - very unsuccesfully I don't know why, but I always manage to have a panic attack when I'm stuck in a snooty bridal shop and the old crabby woman behind the counter says 'ok, pick one' I even had a woman grab my dress off the rack in front of FH and ask if that was the dress I was wesing the day of so she could match it up with a piece...I've actually RAN full speed out of bridal shops crying a few times.
So at Barron's he asked me to describe my dress... I told him who made it and that it had color in it - he knew the exact dress I was talking about down to the beading... the detail on the train.. the cut... everything. I was FLOORED!!!
He said to me 'I have the perfect tiara for you - it needs to be higher in the center to draw the eyes up... I recommend this one and of course... THIS one!'
Now I've been to countless high end shops that tell me to 'pick one' I go to a flea market, and get the most wonderful service I've received from any vendor thus far!!!
I got a beautiful Swarvski crusted Tiara for 140 bucks!!! It was the first one he recommended and he even put in on my head properly.
I don't know if I even need to, but I'm totally going back this weekend to see if there is anything else I can buy from this man!!! LOL
Definitely my very favorite vendor yet!!
