They cannot be exchanged or returned during the LA period.

We accept returns of Full Priced/undamaged/unworn merchandise within 7-10 days of your original purchase. Your return can be used for an immediate exchange for another item or as an in-store credit valid for one year.

What does ‘Organic’ mean? What does “Fair Trade” mean?

The terms “Organic”, “Green”and “Eco-friendly” are thrown around a lot these days. Essentially, they indicate fabrications and processes that utilize sustainable fibers and eliminate heavy chemical processing. For more, look at our  “What is organic” post here. Another term you may see here is “Fair Trade Partner”. Fair Trade certified companies improve regions (often 3rd world countries) by utilizing Fair wage and work environment processes to bring commerce to the region and improve the economies of those areas. We constantly add to our roster of Fair Trade artisans allowing you to be part of the larger picture in solving poverty and lessening our environmental impact.

Can you ship my purchase?

Absolutely. We utilize US Postal Service to almost everywhere, usually Priority Mail with delivery confirmation. The minimum shipping and handling fee starts at $12.50.

Do you sell gift certificates?

Of Course! You may purchase a Gift Certificate in any amount of your choosing in-store or over the phone. We can mail it to you, the recipient, or hold it for pickup.

A word about Pricing

We are committed to offering our clients the lowest and most fair price on each and every one of our products. Knowing that, please understand that we do not “discount” or haggle. You will almost certainly find something “on sale” at every visit and we often do other special promotions. Which you can keep up with on our Facebook page (sign up at the left).
