Thanks! I was sort of confused b/c I got something in the mail saying I could get extra reward points at the Chevy Chase store toward the end of this month, but I haven't heard any fanfare or any talk about the new place, so I wondered what was going on.Sometime this month, I have an invite to the opening at home. I *think* its Sept. 29th.
Thanks for the link! I happened upon this article too in this morning's paper.
We got one in the mail too since we have their CC, but, Wednesday is just the worst possible day for me to go shopping. I'm anxiously awaiting Saturday!they are having a VIP thing on weds, too. i got an invite since my husband is a cardholder, but unfortunately i don't know if i can use it
Oh, this is great news! Honestly, Bloomingdale's never seemed to me show much interest in selling nice handbags. Now things are going to change!oh, i heard the store is going to be fabulous. the handbag manager used to be a LV store manager in Vienna, VA. His name is David and absolute sweetheart he is. Please share with us the experience there!
I noticed the absence of Fendi and the others you mentioned as well. I was shocked Fendi wasn't there b/c even the White Flint store carries that label.I went. I have to say, I was not impressed with the handbag selection -- I think you pretty well covered it, but there's no LV, Fendi, Chanel, Gucci, etc. The contemporary clothing section was ok. Shoe selection was terrible.
I think I am not their target market. I'm sure it's great for another demographic.
It is a very pretty store.
Finally, the entire time I was there on Weds, including trying on clothes, not a single salesperson said a SINGLE THING to me! There were definitely some of them sortof standing around and chatting, too.
