Charlotte Russe

I was in the shoe department for at least 15 minutes waiting for a salesmen to help me find a size. No one bothered to come over so I ended up just grabbing some cute boots that had the boxes underneath the display product. I have always had a great experience with this store but at this location I was not very satisfied with the services. I felt like the associates were too busy «gossiping» and one associate, Jordan I believe, had an awful attitude like customers were «bothering» her. Needless to say I have not gone into the store due to the bad services I received the first/​last time I shopped at this location.

I was in Charlotte Russe last week, I wanted to buy a top so I got in line, the girls at the checkout were very involved with their conversation and never once looked at me or said hello, even while ringing me up, not a smile or acknowledgement, no eye contact period. I am in customer service and believe in customer service, sorry girls, walked out on my purchase because of this.

Always love this store. The shoes are only in full sizes (no ½) but still great selection. The clothes are always changing so I know I can come back and find something new and different I like.

Why shopping for jeans is my utter nightmare:
I’m thin and petite, but not everywhere. I sport what some circles call a «Ghetto Onion,» or ‘Gunion.” J-​Lo caboose. Little in the middle but she got much back. L.A. Face with the Oakland Booty. Badunk-​a-​dunk in the trunk. Sir Mix-​a-​Lot wrote a song about girls like me, and yes… it was our anthem for a little while.
Think the fashion industry stood up and took notice? Baaahahaha! No.
Shopping for jeans is my utter nightmare because, if I want them to fit right in the ass, they’re undoubtedly going to be HUGE around the waist. Those of you with this issue know what I’m talking about: buttgap. They fit in the butt, but gap at the waistband. LAME.
Sure, you’ll occasionally find something that fits right, but it’ll probably be all stupidly besequined and hood-​rat-​hood-​rat-​hoochie-​mama. Pocket embellishments are for trashy little wannabes (no offense to those of you who ARE trashy little wannabes). Needless to say, when I found a good pair of jeans I wore them ’til they disintegrated.
Enter Charlotte Russe.
Now, I’m the first to admit that a good deal of the stock in that store is really awful. It’s like the trailer-​dwelling cousin of Forever 21. However, THEIR JEANS ARE AWESOME.
Awesome.
They’re simple, classy, come in a variety of lengths (love it!), cuts (boot cut, skinny, flare, etc.) and washes (everything from super-​dark to practically acid-​wash). No sequins on the pockets. No embroidery on the legs. And they fit! They fit! They fit!
If you’ve got an hourglass figure and find yourself Desperately Seeking Jeans, seek no more, my friend. Trot that Gunion of yours over to Charlotte Russe and experience a jean epiphany. And as an extra-​special bonus, you won’t spend over $ 40 a pair.
Be still my beating booty.
