Dillard’s

For starters, I want to take some time out of my day to Unilocal review the excellent salon n spa part. So… I stumbled into the talented hands of Jen (by appt) in most desperate need of hair reassurance. Talk about an inspirational stylist and all! I felt so comfy when I explained Jen what was going on with my hair and she came up with a formula to fix it and all. So I will spare you the details of the nightmare my hair was (before) but after she cleaned it up… it is like princess hair right now at the moment. So lovely! and normally I have regular crunchy wavy hair, but she welcomed me to her plate and really went to bat for my hair. Dillard’s Realy got the deed done! So I’m happy and excited and just exuberant about the new me. :) Also, the salon had magazines to look at while you’r getting ur blowout or cut or color whatever it is ur getting done to your head. The salon specializes in Aveda hair stuff. Jen used a frizz control product in my hair before blowing it smooth with heat. The popular aveda repair line really works for me. I mean my hair didn’t poof out ugly when I went outdoors in the hot and humidity and it just felt so soft verses all of the damage I’ve caused it from stylin. That’s my experience at the salon in a nutshell. .this place doesn’t lie! so I’ll be back. #hairgoals #loveit

This is my favorite department store in the mall. It’s mainly for the layout. I move through this department store with ease no matter the section. They always have each section neat and the aisle or racks are placed strategically for browsing. I visit the Womens Apparel section, accessories and kids department most often. All these areas are easy to shop. The kids section is the neatest by far, but that’s mainly because their little clothes and items are so easy to store. Dillard’s also has great sales. I’ve found the best deals here and usually not on advertised sale days. The staff is nice. I’ve never had an issue with finding someone to help or answer questions. I also like where the store is located in the mall. It’s not the super high traffic area by the food, so this makes it easy to get in and out. If you choose to enter from the outside of the mall, Dillard’s has its own parking lot with plenty of parking, which is great for the holiday season. Overall, a the top of my favorite places to shop in the mall list.

I don’t shop in Dillard’s often now but years earlier most of my wardrobe consisted of finds in Dillard’s. They sell many popular brands that many Augustans love! I recently stopped in to pick up items from celebrity makeup artist and my makeup mentor, Sam Fine. He became the Creative Makeup Director of Fashion Fair, he also debuted his first makeup collection at Fashion Fair. He was brought in to revive the brand to a more modern cosmetics line. I’ve been a fan of his since his first book, Fine Beauty. It’s a look into the world of makeup and celebrity clientele. I swear I recreated every look in this book and live by his advice throughout the book. It was a no brainer that I would be a customer of his when he decided to put his name on cosmetics. It is a beautiful collection of lip colors and glosses. Walking up to the Fashion Fair makeup counter inside Dillard’s there was no one there but someone from an adjacent counter came to assist me. I chose a nude color called Deep Suede and a Canary Diamond lip gloss. The lady who was helping me had a hard time finding the gloss. She searched high and low for it, eventually finding the last one in stock. I was so ecstatic that I had another piece of my mentor to help me along the way. This lip color has been my favorite since I bought it and I have been wearing it every chance I get.

It’s a Dillard’s located in the Augusta Mall! Their inventory does not seem as varied as Macy’s inventory but I still like to browse their stuff here. Purses you have Dooney and Coach (yeah!), along with Jessica Simpson, Guess, etc. Clothing you have Lauren Ralph Lauren, a lot of Dillard brands and a lot of the older women brands. I actually find that most of the clothes here target the mid 30s-​60s women so maybe hot trends like DKNY and Michael Kors should be sought elsewhere (Macy’s).
The lingerie section is kind of small. They do not carry Vanity Fair, to my dismay!
The luggage section is also kind of small. The section is located next to the bedding. They do carry a few Guess pieces that are cute but still really expensive.
There is a lot of Daniel Cremieux and Ralph Lauren for men here!
I don’t think they do Dillard’s Friends and Family, but they do often do additional x% off clearance items.
