Bitter Grace

It was pleasure meeting you Anne and the team. It was a great styling experience! When I saw one of the dresses I said that would never look good on me but I was wrong. I learned '' Never say Never!" I also learned one clothing item can be worn many different ways. Again Thank you for a great learning experience.

I have been here a few times and every time the owners make it special. I attended their afternoon tea experience and the food and service was great. My friends and I loved it! The space is beautiful as well. You won't regret coming here!

Simply put, my personal styling experience with Anne Marie changed the trajectory of my life. I cant overstate how transformative and profound my experience at Bitter Grace was. Anne Marie has a true gift she was able to tap into who I am and more importantly, who I want to be, after one conversation over Zoom. She then pulled the most beautiful pieces of clothing for me to try on at my personal styling appointment in her store. My time with Anne Marie felt like catching up with an old friend she made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. She set out a beautiful spread of fruit, cheese, wine and even played my favorite music (country) throughout my appointment. What I especially loved about my appointment with Anne Marie is there was absolutely no pressure whatsoever if I came out of the dressing room and didnt love the way I felt in a particular piece of clothing, she didnt try to convince me otherwise or try to change my mind. We simply moved on to the next outfit. I felt completely heard and understood the entire time. I have made a friend for life in Anne Marie. Anne Marie, thank you for what you do you gave me such a gift this year and I will always be so thankful. If youre reading this and looking for a sign as to whether you should book a personal styling appointment at Bitter Grace, this is your sign to seize the moment!

The clothing is beautiful, the store is well-curated, and I loved that I wasn't overwhelmed by inventory. It is also very expensive. I tried on an outfit that would have cost $1000 (a silk top and silk skirt) in-store, shopping with my baby. When I told the staff member who was helping me shop that I'd sleep on it and come back the next day, he said (in jest, but still...) "just come back with your husband's charge card." I replied "that's not how it works in my family," and left. I sent this feedback to the store owner, and she was apologetic, and offered me a personal shopping session or afternoon tea. But I realize that the offending staff person might have been her husband, who I understand is sometimes involved in the store?! Sadly, that doesn't fix feeling stereotyped, as if I didn't look, sound, or act like I could afford to make my own financial decisions, nor does it address the underlying misogyny of his comment.

Ive been a customer at Bitter Grace since the end of 2020. I cant rave about this store front enough. Its modern, chic and welcoming. The decor and fit-out is AMAZING. What makes it more home is that the staff are attentive. So when youre viewing their pieces they can explain the relationships built, intention and brand you maybe investing in. Ive enjoyed the sustainable clothing Ive bought for myself and gifted to others. I absolutely love their candles. I loved the soaps and the previous facial scrub they stocked. Hopefully they are restocked soon or find another partner. In addition, Ive recently attended a high tea event with friends that was beautiful from the food, tea, wine and champagne selections. Lastly, this morning the owners allowed me to utilize the space for a photoshoot. Im very thankful for that. It gave the feel and energy I was seeking to bring out. You wont lose with Bitter Grace. Im excited for the future of this space because it will continue to thrive and be successful. Youll see Ive attached photos of items a one of a kind jacket I bought for myself. A gift purchased for a friend, the high tea, space growth and photos I enjoyed taking because its an amazing space. Ill add photos from my shoot later to inspire others to utilize Bitter Grace to its full potential like I have.
