HOW RETURNS & EXCHANGES WORK
Start Your Return or Exchange
Returns and exchanges for orders placed on AvaLaneBoutique.com start in our easy-to-use return portal:
From the portal, you can choose to:
- Exchange for a different size — Select the size you need, and once we receive and approve your return, your new order is created automatically. You'll get a notification with fresh tracking.
- Get a refund — Choose your original payment method or instant store credit. Store credit never expires, but returns remain subject to receipt, inspection, and approval.
Store credit may be issued immediately through the return portal, but all returns remain subject to receipt, inspection, and approval. Ava Lane Boutique may adjust or cancel store credit if the returned item is not received or does not meet our return requirements.
Please include your packing slip or order information inside your return package.
What If My Exchange Size Is Out of Stock?
If the size you need isn't available, we'll issue store credit so you can choose a different style or check back when it's restocked. Store credit never expires.
Choosing the Best Fit
We encourage you to review our sizing charts, fit notes, and product details before purchasing — it helps ensure the best possible experience. Feel free to contact us if you ever need fit advice.
Return Shipping
With Optional Prepaid Return Label: If you purchased the optional Prepaid Return Label at checkout, you may receive a prepaid return label for eligible returns at no additional return-label cost. The cost of the prepaid return label is non-refundable.
Without Optional Prepaid Return Label: Return shipping labels are available for $9.97 through our return portal, or you may ship your return using your own carrier and method. If Ava Lane Boutique provides a return label for $9.97, the return label cost will be deducted from your refund or store credit. Original shipping fees are non-refundable.
Customers are responsible for ensuring return packages are successfully delivered to Ava Lane Boutique. We recommend using a trackable shipping method and keeping your receipt until your return is delivered. Refunds and store credit cannot be issued for returns that are not successfully delivered.
How Long Does It Take?
Returns are processed within 5 to 7 business days after they arrive at our facility. Processing may take slightly longer during peak seasons.
Refunds to your original payment method may take several additional business days to appear depending on your bank. Please allow 5 to 10 business days for your financial institution to post the refund. Store credit may be issued immediately through the return portal, subject to receipt, inspection, and approval of the returned item.
Tip: Many customers choose store credit so they can reorder the right size or style before it sells out.
If a return is refused, the item will be shipped back to the customer at the customer's expense.
RETURN REQUIREMENTS
To keep things fair for all customers, returned items must meet all of the following requirements:
- Tags attached: Please keep original tags on until you're sure you're keeping the item.
- Unworn and unwashed: Items should be in the same condition they arrived in.
- Free of perfume, deodorant, makeup, pet hair, odors, stains, marks, or damage: We inspect every return to make sure the next customer receives a brand-new item.
- Packing slip or order information included: If your packing slip isn't handy, include a note with your name and order number.
- Returned within 30 days of delivery: Returns must be postmarked within 30 days. Once approved, the package must arrive at our facility within 45 days of your original delivery date.
Items showing any signs of wear may be refused. Items must match the original purchase and order records. Returns that do not meet these requirements may be declined or refused. Items returned in unacceptable condition may be shipped back to the customer at the customer’s expense.
Ava Lane Boutique reserves the right to document and verify all returns. Refunds are issued based on the condition of the item when received and inspected at our facility.
If an order qualified for free shipping and is partially returned, bringing the remaining merchandise total below the free shipping threshold, the standard shipping cost that would have applied to the order may be deducted from your refund.
