Well, the name says it all: this store is fabulous, and the eponymous Richard will be your style…read moreguru, knowing at a glance what size you'll need, telling you authoritatively to wear braces rather than a belt with that suit, turning up the sleeves on this shirt for you, and generally steering you through the seas of fantastic vintage finds in his store. My fiance came looking for maybe a tie or pocket square to match my dark purple wedding dress, but also wanted to check out the Oxfords and suits. He ended up leaving with a perfect vintage suit that will only need minimal tailoring, a pocket square, a tie, as well as a casual shirt, all for less than the cost of renting a suit somewhere. Plus, gotta love supporting a shop like this -- in business 11 years and clearly going strong; there were 5 or 6 people shopping in there at the same time! And Richard was hopping from one to the next effortlessly. In addition to clothes, there are other vintage finds such as paintings/photos, cocktail accoutrements, and matchbooks. Richard himself works most days but said Sundays he has an assistant so that he can check out estate sales himself. He obviously takes pride in finding wonderful and unique pieces for his shop, and said that everything gets dry cleaned before selling (so it doesn't have the musty smell of some vintage shops). My fiance appreciated the thoughtful layout of the shop. It is obvious that we will be back to check out more fabulous finds!

This Boutique is a must!!!! CUSTOMER SERVICE- As soon as…read moreyou walk in you are instantly greeted with a friendly outgoing smile. Followed by an introduction by name and a nice firm hand shake. Making you feel immediately welcome and comfortable. I had the pleasure of meeting both Owners Elia & Linda. They are so genuine and transparent giving you that peace of mind knowing you are in store that has your best interest at heart and will take care of your fashion needs. There was no hesitation in bringing out several boots styles for me to try on. They suggested I walk around in their store to ensure comfort. During this process they did not push the sale onto you giving me the proper space to make a decision on my purchase. BOUTIQUE PRESENTATION- I've been to my fair share of boutiques in several states and contrary to most, this boutique has followed through with their theme. They are not all over the place with respect to their merchandise. The Western wear theme is very well pronounced and very tasteful. Not too much and definitely not lacking in inventory. This boutique is clean and very well kept. I saw not dust on the counters, tables, or furniture. Their merchandise stands out as you walk in and it is not cluttered which helps you appreciate it all from the Boots (shoes), Clothing, accessories, and more. QUALITY- Last but not least, allow me to brag about the quality of these boots. I purchased a few pairs of boots, There is no way you will want to leave with one pair only after trying these bad boys on. All styles, if I am not mistaken and designed by Linda with the support of her sister Elia. Her designs are in my opinion flawless to say the least. The quality of the leather on the inside of the boot is super soft and durable. The smell of the leather is perfect. Not too over powering. The overall quality of the leather inside and out is solid 10. It is very obvious that these girls spent a good amount of time looking for the right fabricating products. REVIEW BY BOOT STYLE: BEST SELLER RICHARD COW HAIR BOOT: Exquisite bootie, the cow hair is so fine and detailed. The hair growth they picked for this bootie is absolutely stunning giving this boot classy feel. RICHARD PEWTER BOOT: This Pewter boot is quite eye catching. It's a risky style for someone like me who always wear all black. It a very bold yet very chic. It has the perfect amount of sassy if you will! GEORGE BLACK BOOT: HOT!!! This black heeled boot it perfect. I love that you can dress this boot up or down. This boot is designed to perfection. I saw Linda wearing these boots the day I came in and they way this boot hugged up above her ankle made me want to try these on. Now we all know not everyone can pull off the same style or look. Well this Boot ladies will hug your foot and leg so nicely that will make you do a double take on the mirror. The zipper on the back of the boot that runs form the heel to the top of the boot gives this boot such a clean look. LOUIE BOOT: I can go on a forever rant on this style. My absolute favorite. I can wear this boot all day long. Just like the rest of the other styles you can dress these boots up or down. The level of comfort is unexplainable. I can wear these with Jeans or work slacks. These are a must have....... TRUST ME LADIES... YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON THESE BOOTS!!!

I have never met such nice young ladies who were totally honest and so much fun to be with that it makes you want to come back. The accessories are also beautiful and the prices are so reasonable. I knew that my daughter would love the store and its style that her words were "your gonna be sorry we are in here" and she walked out with a new wordrobe.

I would like to call out their stretchy, breathable suit and shirt material work well for outdoor events, keeping one cool and comfortable, and do not sacrifice any style to do so, looking like a nice suit made from traditional materials. Agnes Krol, one of the store managers worked very hard on my suit, confidently taking me through measuring, ordering, a recut after the suit returned, and finally walked to the tailor down the street with me to fine tune the jacket. The service was above and beyond and her attitude was always positive and helpful. The rest of the staff were very helpful and nice as well however I mostly worked with Agnes. It made a big difference to me to be taken care of so well. The cost of the suit and shirts was reasonable and I was not pushed to buy more things like ties and belts, though those were available. All together a great experience and product for my wedding!

Erik is awesome, it's like bringing your fashionable friend to go shopping with you, except that your friend has an intimate knowledge of the store's inventory and also happens to be a professional tailor. He pulled out a suit that I would not have considered on my own, but it turned out to be the PERFECT SUIT! It only needed a hem, which he did himself, pressed it and put it in a garment bag, and I picked it up a couple days later. The whole experience felt very comfortable. If you have social anxiety about asking for help in stores (not that I have any experience with that of course....), rest assured that I felt completely at ease here. And after several weeks of unsuccessful shopping in department stores, it was such a relief to find something that works. The shop is really cool, it's like what I imagine some fashion magazine's basement might look like. A little disorganized with hidden gems everywhere you look. There is a whole selection of sequined blazers that I'm dying to try on. I definitely plan to come back!

(You know, one of those moments when you buy something and that piece of clothing is just hanging out in your closet with tags? Yep, just like that) So I finally put on the belt and literally as I locked it, a belt loop fell off. On a new belt! Sadden, I ran to Express to see what could be done. I was 100% ready to be turned around due to item being purchased over 90 days, but they exchanged the broken one for a new one no questions asked! What a kind and attentive staff!

Amazing high end fashion but not low price. I have background in upscale fashion & grew up in China…read more& export promotions so I know what I know what "expensive" actually looks like down to the craftsmanship, material, and style. I'm judging based on INTRINSIC value alone & not swayed at all but what is labeled designer or trendy. Not sure if this is what this store is known for but pleasantly surprised. I went home with several solid staple and standalone pieces & wasn't looking to buy unless a must. If you're into elegant & refined, this is your store. The prices are a bit pricey for a thrift, like $20 on average. However, I wouldn't knock out a star because I think that's the niche and looks like it could be $200. This place reminds me more of a consignment store bc the picks are clearly very deliberate but I'd say better than the picks there bc consignment & boutique doesn't mean they know their stuff. If you're looking for fun fast fashion clothes to fill up your clothes you might be disappointed. A few boho styles but not like urban or other box stores. More upscale. If you're willing to browse & like elegant tops & dresses you'll be happy. Bells & whistles, silks, not gaudy. Different but not too out there. Whoever selected these pieces has a good eye for high end fashion. My taste in fashion is very narrow. I like V-necks, cinched waist, silk & cotton, renaissance, ruffles & each and every piece I chose was able to hit several elements at once & truly see them as unique. It's not just the features, you can find those styles anywhere but the composition, just enough intricate detail, craftsmanship and material does for me. I won't buy anything at all if I don't really need it because I have enough clothes & if I like another piece better the other one will just sit in the closet. Each piece cannot be less liked than the rest. I still went home with bangers! I do wear S-XS though and this store just happens to be fulfill my romantic fantasies so take that for what it's worth. Had a few pieces I have to tailor but that's because I'm very particular. Even the one crop top was elegant & that's really hard to pull off! This place is more like 4.5 in overall experience because I wouldn't bring my friends here bc it's not OMG to die for, everywhere you turn there are total knockouts for the price I couldn't find anywhere else in the world, but a 4 would be unfair bc it's not a fun big fashion place like Thailand's Platinum, it's literally a thrift & a small one at that...but if we're talking to the ratio of quality pieces in there given the small space and therefore pieces, well done 5. Like I said you actually have to have a taste for high fashion & actively trying to upgrade/have places to go for this to be worth it though. You're not going to call up all your friends bc your wallet is happy & you couldn't believe the price of 20 things. It's just not that kind of store. You get the $500 dream shoes for $75 or the dress that can be a double to work or dinner date thing. Didn't actively look at the brands because I don't care, but from what I can tell more decent well regarded brands but not outdated styles. TDLR; aimlessly browsing for cheap stuff to fill up the closet for wear once and throw away party/ summer & I got insane steal prices NO. Actively trying to upgrade your life & modern day Blair Waldorf forever pieces YES.

They took 10 items and offered $60 and in that was a brand new $128 pair of skims leggings, for example. Everything was name brand. You'd do better on Depop, Vinted, or Mercari. I dare say even Poshmark and Thred up have a better margin. They were very nice but overall not somewhere to resell unless you're just wanting a little bit of cash for what you'd otherwise donate and don't really care about. Emphasis on a little bit.
