Frequently Asked Questions | Talbottique
We know you might have a few questions before you shop. Here you'll find answers about our mission, our products, shipping, returns, and the values that guide everything we do at Talbottique.
What is Talbottique, and what do you sell?
Talbottique is a boutique that brings together thoughtfully curated fashion and home décor in one place. We carry effortless, stylish clothing made from natural fabrics alongside elevated home pieces, all selected with sustainability and fair trade at the forefront. Think of us as your go-to for living beautifully and responsibly.
What makes Talbottique different from other fashion and home décor shops?
Every product in our collection is chosen with intention. We partner with brands and artisans who pay fair wages, use eco-friendly materials, and follow ethical production practices. Rather than offering everything under the sun, we focus on a curated selection where style and conscience go hand in hand.
How do you ensure your products are truly sustainable and ethically sourced?
We look for verifiable supply-chain details, not just broad slogans. That means prioritizing partners who hold recognized certifications such as GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and Fair Trade. We also ask our suppliers about specific factory locations, material sourcing, and worker conditions so we can share that transparency with you.
What types of fabrics do you use in your clothing?
Our apparel focuses on natural fabrics like organic cotton, linen, hemp, and Tencel. These materials are gentler on the environment, breathable on the body, and built to last longer than their synthetic counterparts. Each product page includes fabric details so you know exactly what you're wearing.
Do you use eco-friendly packaging?
Yes. We use recyclable and compostable packaging materials wherever possible. From mailers to tissue paper, we choose options that minimize waste. It's a small step, but it matters to us (and research shows it matters to 90% of shoppers, too).
What are your current promotions and perks?
We love rewarding our customers. Here's what's available right now:
- 15% off when you purchase 2 or more items
- Free shipping on orders of $150 or more
- Free tote bag with every order of $150 or more
These perks apply automatically at checkout, so there's no code to remember.
What is your shipping policy?
Orders of $150 or more ship free within the United States. For orders under that threshold, shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on your location and the weight of your package. We process most orders within 1 to 3 business days, and you'll receive a tracking number as soon as your package is on its way.
What is your return and exchange policy?
We want you to love what you receive. If something doesn't work out, we offer returns and exchanges within a reasonable window from the date of delivery. Items should be unworn, unwashed, and in their original condition with tags attached. Check our Returns page for full details, including how to start a return. A clear, easy return process is important to us because we want you to shop with confidence.
How can I make sure I order the right size?
Each clothing product page includes a detailed size guide with measurements. We recommend measuring yourself at home and comparing those numbers to the chart before ordering. If you're between sizes or have questions about fit, reach out to our team and we'll be happy to help. Getting the right size the first time means a better experience for you and less waste overall.
How can I contact Talbottique if I have more questions?
We'd love to hear from you. You can reach us through the Contact page on our website, or send us an email directly. We also respond to messages on our social media channels. Our team typically replies within one business day, and we're always happy to help with product questions, order updates, or styling advice.
