Ardene's has been a place that I have shopped at since I was a little kid. The store has everything you need if you want some cheap fashion pieces. You can choose from tons of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, body peircing jewelry, sandles, bathing suits, clothes, PJ's, dresses, summer outfits and so much more. I bought 5 bathing suits there last year all for 40$ bucks and they are pretty good quality. I had zero issues of the color fading or anything falling apart. I don't buy there jewelry anymore as it infects my ears and tarnishes on my skin but its perfect for a little girl who wants too play dress up.

I always noticed that they did extend there store too having clothing as well. It just used too be jewelry but now they sell clothing and shoes as well. Shoes seem too be of poor quality. I bought some for 8 bucks and they broke within a couple days not too mention I got a couple blisters from wearing them. They also pierce ears here as well. I have gotten a couple done here when I was younger. Probably wouldn't recommend it as piercing ears with a gun does more damage too the cartilage then a needle does.

If your looking for a great price on so-so quality of apparel and jewelry this is the store for you

I use to work here and it was a nightmare... the only good thing was getting cheap accessories even cheaper.
always cute stuff but having to deal with people coming in and disrespecting the store because it's "cheap" drove me up the wall. Also theres a shoplifting problem there.... gotta keep you eyes open at all times.

I like the deals you can find in store sometimes!! Can be hit & miss though! Some stores feel cramped with too much stock.

I love Ardène because everything here is pretty inexpensive. Sure, the products are not great quality, but you can find some pretty earrings, necklaces and body jewelleries.

I got my nose pierced at this place. The salesperson was really nice and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. But I know they are not all like that.

I bought an eyeshadow some times ago, and I was surprised by the great result! Seriously, their eyeshadow are highly pigmented and it stays on all day. You can be sure that I will buy some more!

This store is especially great if you are on a budget.

I am an avid earring and necklace fanatic, so when I discovered Ardene's a few years ago, I nearly flipped.

What I like: I LOVE all the deals. 3 for $10 for earrings, 2 for $15 for necklaces and some tanks, you honestly can't go wrong. Some of the earrings are cute, and a few tops are nice too. You can also get your ears pierced (I'm not sure if they do other piercings) on sight.

What I don't like: It's quite a shame that they don't have any jeans. Not a whole lot of the tops are really that great, as a lot of them all have the lace stuff that get's ripped up really easily. Honestly, I find that the service depends on location. The Ardene store in Smiths Falls has great costumer service, but that's probably because it's a smaller mall, and less traffic. On top of all that, I absolutely do not recommend any of the mood rings because there is a 90% chance that it will turn your finger green. Sometimes the earrings and necklaces aren't that great either.

Out of all this, I still like Ardene. Their cheap earrings are easy to replace, so not a huge deal if they break or I lose an earring. I can't say much about the makeup line, but honestly, I wouldn't trust it.
