Cuteness! Such clever products.
Ace S.

I really, really wish this location enforced social distancing better. Not so much the employee's fault as it's corporates fault. There was no one accounting for capacity at the front door, unlike some of the other stores. The sign at the front says they will only allow 25 customers at a time, but I've seen double that amount on a weekend. If you're going to do your part as a location and enforce social distancing, please actually keep to your word. Some of us here actually worry about getting sick. The typo extension they have in there is absolutely microscopic and is always packed to the gills with people. The Cotton On itself is always, ALWAYS packed with people and it is like a labyrinth trying to get out. Never have I almost had an anxiety attack in a store before, being packed like a sardine. I really like their products here, though. Cute stationery and cuter clothes. Pre-covid, I would come in here all the time and pick out all the cute stationery and knickknacks I could ever want. They sell some pretty cute stuff here. I just wish they cared more about social distancing.

What doesn't this place sell? They have the cutest baby + children clothing and at a good price. The options for women are huge, I found everything I was looking for and more because of the sale they had going on. In the corner they have the most amazing novelty stuff, things you wouldn't even think of but absolutely need once you see them.

I'm going to keep this review short: if you have children, you HAVE to check out their new baby/toddler/kids section!!! Their clothes are seriously sooo cute that I wanted to buy everything in the store! Their clothes are hip and trendy (similar prices to H&M but the clothes are more edgy). See attached photo! Check them out--located in Fashion Valley Mall (near JC Penney's). Everything in the store is under $30. And if you don't have children, don't worry...it's still worth checking out their men's/women's department :)! Happy shopping! I'll be baaaack (**in an Arnold accent**)

Promotion on the window

Please be aware when Cotton On Advertise 40% off entire store with no exclusion written. They should honor what they promote. I went in to the store bc of the promotion. Unfortunately when I went to the register to purchase baby clothes - the 40 % didn't apply to baby clothes. Talked to a manger and she didn't even bother to care. I walked out not buying anything. Lost a customer!

located on the base floor of the fashion valley mall....below Forever 21 (H&M is above and cross from it)

sometimes you just want comfortable clothes. there is a time and place for the suck-in-my-stomach, can't-really-breath, why-the-hell-am-i-torturing-myself..oh-yeah-i-want-to-look-cute uncomfortable clothes days. But let's face it....some days you just want to say 'the hell with it, im gonna wear a moo moo.' Well, Cotton On offers a wonderful compromise. Comfortable clothes that is also cute. and as an added bonus, pretty much dirt cheap. Hooray, the moo moo can stay in the closet! Not to say I can't rock a moo moo. Add a belt, stilettos, some dangly earrings....might have something there. But for now I choose to get my cotton on instead. Today I bought, quite possibly, THE most comfortable long-sleeved shirt dress. The fabric feels like butter and it was on sale for $9.80. Hell yes i want you. Offering both male and female clothing and accessories, this is definitely a place to check out. Simple - yet trendy - comfortable clothes at a good price. Not to mention a business with a cause: when you check out they ask if you would like to purchase one of their $2 products whose proceeds benefit the Cotton On foundation. http://www.cottononfoundation.org/ These aussies are alright.

My 2 month old is wearing a size 3-6 month. Love the diagonal two sided zipper, makes diaper changes easy and zipper doesn't hurt her chin.

Clothes are really cute and a little bit in the pricier side but overall it's a good store. Great customer service too.

Ok, lets start by the reason I decided to go to Old Town on a sunny Sunday morning instead of…read morediverting my attention and my GPS towards the coastal area...another gift certificate! (I got the 3rd price at a Frida Kahlo look alike contest and one of the prizes was a $25 certificate to purchase something at the Bazaar del Mundo in Old Town). So excited to go back to Old Town with no traffic, not too many tourists and not too many expectations. And then found Ariana. Nice name for a woman and not bad for a store filled with surprise after surprise. If you like colorful and different type of clothes, this is your place. My first thought was that they were mostly catering older ladies, but the pieces are very versatile and several age groups friendly. They all have in common cool colors, pattern and whimsy! I spent a long time in the second floor (where the sales are, trying to maximize those $25!) and tried out wonderful dresses with no pressing, no hassle, all the time of this world. What a pity that everything I liked was either too small or too large, but equally pretty. Eventually I got a very cool tote bag with inspirational messages (by artist Kelly Rae Roberts, coincidentally one of my favorites) that was 50% off plus the cutest pair of socks depicting a very funny (who would say considering she always posed so serious) Frida Kahlo! Prices are touristy but check the upper floor for deals. The ladies working there are amazing, very helpful and have all the time the customer wants. I felt like I was invited to a home party surrounded by beautiful objects with warm women. Only missing thing for me there was a cup of tea and some cookies...I would have stayed even longer. So grateful for this prize and for discovering Adriana. I will come back and check the collection of lavender, purple and fuchsia wallets and also the Mexican silver jewelry. It was a feast for my eyes.

While browsing I came across a necklace I thought my daughter would like so I send her a pic. The…read morelady working at the store promptly & curtly came over to let me know there are no pictures allowed in the store. Wow! Not buying it now that's for sure! Rude!

I moved away from San Diego 10 years ago, so I was in SD to spend Christmas with my mom. While in town, I wanted to go to Old Town to pick up my favorite food at one of the restaurants in Old Town, but I thought I'd look around at some of the shops since I've been away for so long. I stopped into the Johnson House and immediately wondered why I had never bought anything there. Everything in there is so fabulous. There was a purse there that was so shiny and pretty, and it kept calling to me: "You want me. Buy me. I'll be your Christmas present. I love you and I know you love me." Well... how could I deny that little purse a forever home? I bought it and used it that very night at a Christmas Eve dinner party. From now on, whenever I visit my mom, I'm going to go to the Johnson house and make a purchase. I can't wait to see what I'm going to buy the next time I'm in San Diego. :) P.S. My mom and I had Christmas buffet at Humphreys on 12/25 and I put my little purse on our table as a centerpiece. It was so pretty! The best part is that within five minutes, a customer walked past our table and told me that my purse made the perfect centerpiece! And it did! It really did! I LOVE my colorful gem purse. Thank you, Johnson House!

Clothes = $4 yes, ALL adult clothes are $4 (some special items may be higher, like the $30 wedding dress...) Plants = yes, this thrift also sources AMAZING plants to sell and they pair it with follow up care / advice, so if you get it home and forget how to care for it, send a message and they'll happily help. Trinkets, treasures, small household items, shoes in REALLY great condition? Yep, they've got all that! Fun events? That too! Plant Bingo and propagation swaps to name a few. Hannah and Hanna are amazing.

The team is so delightful, uplifting and the place is a total vibe. The owners engaged with each person on some level or another and were super friendly (not the fake kind). They knew so much about plants, and as a plant girlie myself, I was diggin' it. They are all about community and care about what they put out to sell. Honest Thrift has options for everyone. Trinkets, clothes, shoes, plants, music, art etc. The pricing is affordable and fair, and their plant selection is beautiful and properly priced for a boutique style premium selection of plants of very well maintained and cared for. Heck, what you save on buying clothes for $4, splurge on your plant. If I didn't have nearly 100 plants in my own house and own my own plant business, I'd get mine from here. Do know, I'll buy cutesy things for my home and gifts for others.

I only have two malls i consistently go in San Diego, the Fashion Valley Mall and the UTC Mall…read more However, UTC mall is more of a leisure... to walk around and kill time, for my son to play at the playground, for the festivities on the holiday season especially Xmas, to have family fun dates and good food experiences at nearby restaurants and the mall I always go to every time I have issues with my Apple iPhone and techs. The fashion Valley Mall tho, is my main mall. This is the mall where I actually do most of my shopping. We watch movies at the AMC theater when we have extra time and get food at the cafeteria/food court area after hours of walking. My son never misses going inside the Laderach to get a free taste, the best chocolate there is. We love going to this mall, especially with my son now being a teenager, we would most likely be doing lots of our shopping activities here especially at his favorite boutiques, like the zumies, Hollister, Rayban, and plenty others I do not recall.... We also love going to The escape room where the mall is. My favorite is the Nordstrom Rack! ;) The holidays tho could get really packed and busy but there's alot of nice things to see and lots of good deals to look forward to.

I will never come back to Fashion Valley Mall again…read more I was very disappointed with my experience. The mall itself has great stores, but what stood out to me was the number of homeless individuals throughout property. As a shopper, I did not feel comfortable walking around the mall. My two young kids were very uncomfortable, I have to move them from the food court and sit and eat elsewhere. For a high-end shopping destination, I expected a cleaner, safer, and more welcoming environment. Management needs to do a better job maintaining the property and ensuring guests feel comfortable while shopping. Unfortunately, this experience was enough that I won't be returning.
