It's a kids clothing store but they have some matching items for mom, aunt, or just ladies who like these types of clothes. The adult clothes are sold separately. I loved the ice cream dress they had for girls. I went in the store and asked if they had a matching one. The store attendant was really nice and said it also came as a boys t-shirt but they didn't have it in the adult size. I was disappointed they didn't make an adult version of this dress but so pleased with the customer service and the beautiful clothing in this store. Love the vintage inspired items. The clothing is pricey for kids clothing but the items are really well made and special. Would make a great gift! Montana Avenue has lots of shops and restaurants so this location is great if you want to walk around or do other errands. Street parking.

I'm excited to keep shopping here as our son grows up.

I have been looking forward to going to this store since before I was pregnant. Now being 16 weeks…read morepregnant, I made it a point to visit when I was in town. I walked in and the sales woman was helping the only other customer in the store. She never once acknowledged my presence in the 15mins I stood there with my hands full of items. Never a "hello", "I'll be right with you", or "let me know if you need anything". Even when I was standing at the cash register wanting to pay, she never turned her attention from this other man. All of my excitement was gone... I put my items down and left. And of course that wasn't acknowledged either. I'm extremely sad and disappointed. Luckily there are other amazing baby stores on this street so I was able to find the cutest things - and they were HAPPY to assist me!

It was a super simple process where I just brought what I had (Quince and Kendi outfits) and the owner let me know on the spot what I could get for them. If you're looking for kids and baby clothes, the selection is great as the brands are higher-end, but affordable. Whether you're a first-time parent to a newborn or your kids are getting grown up, I would say make this a first stop before looking online. They sell toys and accessories as well. There's paid street parking or free parking in the neighborhoods. This is a fantastic small business to support and shop at!

On our recent visit to Santa Monica , my daughter insisted our trip would be incomplete without a trip to this location of Frankie's and happily agreed to the 42 minute walk to the store from our hotel. This location did not disappoint. While small, it's stocked with trendy, on point clothes and accessories that my 11 year old adores. I tend to only buy her clothes here for very special occasions ( e.g. her birthday ) due to the higher price point for kid's clothes but she saved up her allowance and on her own purchased an adorable royal blue tank and bright green shorts. I loved checking out all the special occasion dresses at Frankie's ( and loved they were all out on display unlike at the Chicago store where you need an appointment for viewing most of the dresses). Frankie's is definitely the place to go when I need a special occasion dress. The people working at the store were friendly, helpful and not overly pushy - which I very much appreciated. Great store for tweens and young teens. Highly recommend.

As the name suggests, they have mostly quilted (and knit) items, from the expected blankets but also smaller items. Some items are locally made but many are imported in. I was looking for a child's sweater that I had seen in the window and called to see if they had the size I needed. It was truly a unique one as it featured a cute pink octopus with hanging tentacles at the front. They didn't have it in my size so the owner ordered it for me after I called and then followed up with a phone call later. She had set it aside for me when I came to pick it up which was nice.
