Review of A Perfect Pear Boutique

My visits to Perfect Pear Boutique have been lackluster at best - mostly because of how I was treated by a member of the staff on a few of my most recent visits. Most recently, I came in with my mom to return a gift in exchange of something that better suited my style. The older lady on staff followed us around the store relentlessly - telling (not asking) me that she would hold the item I wanted to purchase while I browsed the rest of the store. I tried to assume the best intentions of the staff member - but the rest of our visit she followed us closely as if we were shoplifters. She insinuated that they might not carry clothing in our sizes (even though I wear an 8 and my mom wears a 6), talked at us (not with us) and for all the time that she spent following us around, didn't ask either of us what we were looking for or offered to help us.
I wanted this place to be somewhere I would enjoy shopping, and I've given it plenty of chances - but it doesn't live up to the hype in the reviews. I'm still disappointed about the ways we were treated and I wouldn't recommend supporting this store until they change their shop practices - especially how they treat shoppers.
