Urban Rendezvous

This clothing store is packed with: clothes, accessories, and shoes. All with that clean punk rock asthetic. You know, suburbia punk. Trendy punk. I’m not going to say that there’s anything terribly wrong with that, I’ve found a few moderately cute items here, it’s just TOO «trendy.» A «boutique» full of chain store clothing. For example, I’ve seen a number of LuckyBrand items. All cute and well made, but while on sale in the Lucky stores, they are full price in Rendezvous. Hmmm.
If you have an aversion to the under 20 set, I wouldn’t recommend this store. The majority of employees and shoppers, save their mothers, are on average 18 years old.
It’s worth a walk through if you’re in the area, but not worth the drive from The Galleria.
Oh, and just a note in reference to «Fashion C’s» review, while Free People and Betsy Johnson have great designs, the clothes are a bit over-​priced for the poor quality of their clothing. Made to last one season. So if you can catch them on Rendezvous’ sales rack, you’re in for a moderate deal.

Just a note (didn’t want to really «update» the review): it appears that Fashion C’s review is gone, however my comment about the designer’s poor quality still stands.

You walk in and your eyes immediately go to the TV mounting by the ceiling with Dr. 90 210 performing a breast augmentation. Perhaps not the most tasteful thing to have on the set, and yet there it is.
The clothes are trendy, okay priced, but not wonderfully made. Given that it was a special event (Mistletoe Madness), you would’ve thought that they’d hire more help. They were disastrously understaffed and one «changing room» was not cutting it. The quotation marks around the word «changing room» are there because it was really just a bathroom. And evidently there was some mysterious and elusive list that you had to get on to use the bathro, err.. .dressing room, but none of the sales associates bother even offering to put my name on the list even as I sat there with a dress in my hand waiting by the bathroom door.
They do have a smaller men’s section that contains seemingly only British style button-​down shirts. Many of them were a bit on the girly side with way too much floral work, but that seems to be all the rage with hipsters so I’m sure they do well. Evidently they also have another store in the Woodlands (or was it Katy?) that carries the same stuff.
While the clothes were pretty cute, some of it was a bit out there and it was much too trendy for my tastes. I just cannot justify spending that much money on something that is such a fashion statement and will be «out» next season.
