Great shop with lots of unique clothing, jewelry, accessories and gifts. A lovely proprietor. A must stop shop in Occoquan. Worth a special trip.

I think the women that owns this store has a mood disorder. Somethings off with her, grumpy, unwelcoming, follows you around. The experience was very uncomfortable.

I've been shopping at Elements for years. The owner is lovely, the merchandise is unique and I can always find something! There's a large selection of accessories, jewelry and house decor. It's really a beautiful store.

At the suggestion from a fellow passenger on a recent cruise, we decided to check out Elements. We were welcomed warmly when entering the store. There is so much to see in this store! From jewelry to women's clothing, purses, unique gifts and more! I quickly found a blouse that I liked and there was offered a screen so I could try it on and a hand mirror to see the back and a full length mirror to check it out as I had tried it on over my t-shirt. The owner (Pam) was complimentary about the item as she mentioned I had given her a fashion show by seeing how it looked on a person and not just a hanger. She mentioned that she tries to source items made in the U.S and from local artists. which we loved. We found our experience here to be delightful. I'm really shocked at the negative reviews here and do not find them warranted.

I was extremely disappointed in this store. First, there was a jacket I was very interested in, asked if they had it in different size and her response was "everything we have is out there." Okay, walked a little farther back and found an entire rack of the same designer jackets! Okay, found the jacket, still not my size, so went to take a picture of the label. Snappily the clerk said "I don't allow pictures in my store." Better way to say that to a customer, but okay, no problem. She then said "why are you taking pictures?" I said I wanted the name of the designer so I could look on line for my size, and she said "Oh, okay, you can do that." Nope, wrote the designer name on my phone and left. Not only would I not look in the store any longer, would not give money to a place so rude.

Terrible experience in this store. My friend and I went in to browse and immediately determined one of the women working there was following us around, watching to make sure we weren’t shoplifting! I found a pair of gloves I was going to purchase, but after the blatant disrespect, I decided not to spend one penny in this store. If you are going to make your customers feel that uncomfortable and unwelcome, I suggest shutting your doors permanently.

Visited this shop during the holiday fest. I have never been made to feel so uncomfortable in a store. One of the women working the counter followed me around in this tiny store to make sure I didn't steal anything! I was going to purchase a pair of gloves but there was no way I would give this business one penny. If they are that paranoid about their customers stealing, either purchase cameras which are less intrusive or just close the doors permanently. Terribly disrespectful way to treat a potential customer.

I have been shopping at Elements since it first opened, back when the genius owner did her own pottery. I have watched this shop grow, expanding in its scope of artisanal offerings while ever increasing in quality. Even after moving to New York, I do a lot of my (wildly affordable) gift shopping at Elements each time I am in the area. It's that fab.

The rudest lady I have ever encountered in my life. I would not give her one cent of my hard earned money with her kind of attitude. Don’t wear jeans and a t-shirt she will judge you like you are nobody, not good enough to be in her presence and don’t ask her name she just answers “WHY”. The lousiest customer service I’ve ever encountered. This owner is definitely out of her own element.

I have been coming to this store for years. I love the merchandise. So unique. The owner, like many owners of local stores these days, is trying to keep her business afloat. Perhaps we need to send good thoughts her way and overlook any rudeness caused by too many anxieties about the future.

Honestly, I didn't even go into the store but I was standing outside the store for no more than a minute with my girlfriend and a couple friends when the owner flung the door open and yelled at us for standing to close to the entrance in an incredibly rude fashion. I was actually briefly in shock because it was so unexpected. We were actually considering maybe going in, but this woman doesn't have to worry, we'll never be entering her business. Horrible way to attract new customers, avoid this toxic owner.
