Monkee’s of Chapel Hill

Stopped in here after having lunch at The Carolina Club. Been following them on Instagram and while there is a Monkee’s closer to me, seems this one has a few sales that are a bit better than the one closer to me. I exchanged a few comments back and forth on Instagram and they were very pleasant. That same pleasant, helpful attitude was displayed in store. I was greeted upon entering and told of the current sale items. And then I was left to look without someone over my shoulder.
The store isn’t huge but they have a lot of stock and everything is beautifully displayed. I had my heart set on a few of the 50% off flip flops and someone did ask if I was finding what I needed. When I told her my dilemma of not seeing a certain pair she quickly went to double check. They didn’t have it and she apologized. If I wasn’t pressed for time there were several clothing items I wanted to try on. I will have to return, as I will say the vibe at this location was not as pretentious as the one in North Hills.

I honestly just joined Unilocal so I could review this store. I wandered into this store for the first time and purchased a bracelet to stack with other bracelets I own. In the store, the bracelet I purchased seemed to match the other bracelets I had on (the bracelets I was hoping to stack it with). However, when I got home, I realized the store’s lighting had misled me to think the bracelet matched when it clearly didn’t in normal lighting. So I went back the next day to return the bracelet only to find out that they don’t refund your money and only give store credit. Obviously this store is not inexpensive, and bc of this policy, I don’t even want to shop here in the future. But now I’m forced to spend money (probably more than I already have bc the bracelet I purchased was one of the more inexpensive items in the store). And because it was my first time in the store I was not aware of the return policy and no one even tried to give me any notice. You’d think that a place that enforced such an uncommon practice would be sure to inform their patrons of something so basic as a return policy at check out. I’m just thankful I didn’t spend more money than I did. Before I left, I did entertain the idea of looking for something else, and found a scarf that I liked. Upon closer examination, I noticed the scarf had many defects, including a large, noticeable hole-​the scarf was still listed at full price. At that point I was completely fed up and didn’t want anything more to do with the store. It’s frustrating to come across a store that wants to cheat it’s customers out of their money as well as the quality of its products. Unfortunately I will have to return to spend my store credit, something of which I am not looking forward to.

Be aware, once you give this place your money you will never get it back. You can only get credit within 10 DAYS of purchase. Meh, I’ve experienced better.

The customer service is outstanding! Everyone is a customer… You walk in and you’re greeter with a smile. They give you time to look and then you’re able to receive help if it’s needed! They the best «stuff»!!! There’s great items at every price point. I highly recommend you take a visit to this awesome boutique!
They have cool outfit’s of the day on Facebook and they will call you when they have new arrivals or sales.
Thanks Ladies of Monkee’s of Chapel Hill!

This is an exquisite shoe selection for all shoe lovers out there. Let it be known, Monkee’s brings the heavy hitters: Stuart Weitzman, Poetic License, Juicy Couture, Claudia Ciuti need I say more. You’ll find those Dolce Gabanna sunglasses you so need to protect your eyes from the UV rays, absolutely gorgeous! They have a wonderful selection of jewelry, accessories, handbags and apparel also, take your pick or just get everything you need right here.

Fellow Unilocalers and Unilocalettes — if you make enough money to buy your everyday clothes here, please tell me what it is you do for a living and how I can do it, because there are some seriously sweet Tory Burch shoes and a Kenneth Jay Lane bangle (it’s pink, it looks like a snake and it’s fantastic…)calling my name here at Monkee’s.
Although shoes are their signature product (and they’re gorgeous), Monkee’s also sells clothes by designers such as Liquid, Shoshanna and Cynthia Steffe, as well as bags and accessories, from the aforementioned drool-​worthy jewelry right down to the popular Hanky Panky underwear line.
Salespeople are friendly and helpful here — when I was in, I saw them bring out some toys for a shopper’s young son, which was nice… mommies need Kate Spade wedges just as much as the rest of us!

This is a gem of a shoe boutique in Meadowmont. They carry a lot of great designer lines and have a very unique and extensive selection. Everytime I have been in, the sales girls have always been very pleasant and accommodating, even when I want to try on virtually every pair in the store! I would definitely recommend it for heels and shoes for a big event, etc.
