The service is impeccable. And they know how to size you properly the first time. Great selection of well made garments.

My 13yr old and I stopped in after aviator nation and we're so surprised by the reasonable prices, beautiful locally made clothes and warm, positive and approachable sales staff. They helped her find a perfect swimsuit! read more

Coutula LA is a cute boutique in the middle of everything Abbot Kinney. I love the cozy cottage where it's located, it's different, it makes it for a fun shopping experience, exploring hidden corners, all the nooks and crannies. The merchandise is nice, high quality, hip, trendy items, sure, it's pricey, but if you dig enough, you might find more reasonably priced clothes and jewelry. Good customer services, the ladies who work here are nice and helpful. Street parking. If you stroll on Abbot Kinney, pop inside, Coutula it's one of a kind place. read more

I now highly recommend Coutula as they have a new, helpful sales staff. This boutique has great gifts at reasonable prices. I highly recommend you pop in if you are shopping on Abbott Kinney Blvd. read more

Coutula - Beware of this clerk ; she can't be bothered questions, and she is incredibly rude. - Women's Clothing Near Me - Venice, California

Very quaint cute shop in an former cottage home. Lots of pretty jewelry, scarves, cashmere, candles and even bathing suits! If you want to find a special or unique gift, this is the place. Prices vary. The one necklace I loved was the most expensive, of course, but there are things under $100. read more

I shouldn't even justify the response from the "owner" or employee who responded, but CLEARLY you are not up to par with California business legalities concerning gift certificates. I was not asking for the promotional value to be honored just what i paid for the certificate ($100, that should have been usable since that is what i PAID), which they WOULD NOT honor and which is ILLEGAL in the state of California. Luckily Buy With Me is an honorable company and refunded my money... Read here for proof of CA Law regarding monetary valued gift certificates: http://www.dca.ca.gov/publications/legal_guides/s-11.shtml and Straight from Buy With Me's website: http://www.buywithme.com/pages/faq#12 The expiration date will be printed on the voucher and also in the "Deal Terms" section on the deal page. This expiration date is binding, except when prohibited by law. Once your voucher reaches its expiration date, it loses its promotional value; but, if your state law requires the business to honor the voucher after the promotional period, you will still be able to redeem it for the price you actually paid for the voucher for the period required by any applicable law. Please check your printed voucher for more details. If the business is unwilling or unable to honor your voucher for the price you paid, please contact BuyWithMe by clicking here and filling out the Contact Us form. We will issue you a refund in the form of credit to BuyWithMe, but only after you have already tried to redeem the voucher at the business. Please note: this does not apply to vouchers redeemable for event tickets for specific dates and times. Once the event time has passed, your voucher will no longer be valid. read more

What Carrie has created is wonderful. She has such a good eye for style with the diversified ever-changing selection of high-quality garments including beach wear , as well as jewelry, fashion Accessories, and a great selection of unique gift options. The shop is so fresh, quaint with natural light...it just feels good being in Coutula's historic bungalow space, it's comfortable and inspiring with beautifully arranged treasures. The shopping experience is enhanced by the relaxed energy of Carrie and her staff. Always a treat! Highly recommended...make it a shopping destination, enjoy all the great restaurants around the shop, then head to the beach! ENJOY read more

Very unique and stylish clothes, handbags, belts, jewelry, you name it! And the customer service was excellent! A very friendly young lady encouraged me to take the messenger bag off of the hook and try it on, then suggested other items that I might like. I felt welcomed and appreciated (unlike a few other boutiques on Abbot Kinney...). There was such a varied selection of merchandise that I could have spent hours in there! Prices were not cheap, but fair when you consider the quality and uniqueness of may of the items. They had local items, imported merchandise and highlighted many up and coming designers. I can't wait to go back!! read more

Amazing selection of Bikinis and One-Pieces!! Great suits. Excellent Service and Incredible Quality. I've been looking all over for a the perfect swimsuit. So glad I found this shop! read more

Sweet cottage style store in the heart of Abbot Kinney's hustle and bustle, one you would like to see more of on the block. Fun and inviting interior, with lots of treasures to choose from. I bought an incredibly beautiful cashmere sweater there and super cute shorts. Staff is very nice and helpful! Will definitely return for more. read more

Pricey, yet somehow I have been there enough to somehow become the duchess. I find myself here whenever I luck out and find a parking spot on my attempts to check out the nearby vintage store. I have found some cute stuff in the clearance basket. But suddenly I am blanking out on what it was I found last time. Hmm, I think it might have been a dress, and one that wasn't on sale. ;-) read more

I love Abbot Kinney, and this is just the loveliest little boutique. There's not a huge number of items, but it's a nicely edited selection. I ordered a great bronze leather Lodis wallet here, and have purchased several unusual pieces of jewelry made from vintage buttons. I really shouldn't be allowed into it, as I inevitably find something I can't live without . . . . read more

Cute little boutique on the Abbot Kinney stretch, the store lady was very polite and helpful. They had some neat perfume oils and MarieBelle chocolate items, nice place to pick up a last-minute gift or something to treat yourself. read more

Cute selection of clothes, jewelry and little gifts in a charming house on Abbot Kinney. They have a great, well-edited mix of items that range from high end to affordable. (Yay!) If you're looking for unique jewelry, whether a gold-plated pistol necklace or a delicate chain with precious stones, this is your place. Very helpful staff, too. read more

One of the few locally-owned businesses left on this street, which is rapidly becoming a corporate flagship street. How many $200 t-shirts does a corporation need to sell to cover $15,000 per month rent? None! It's a marketing expense to be absorbed into the larger marketing budget. How many $120 vegan leather jackets that looks awesome can you find on this pricey street? Only at Coutula. Her styles look much more expensive than they are. Spot on trending styles, sophisticated and adult yet maintaining that breezy Venice vibe. read more

I love this little shop! I always find a really great piece to add to my wardrobe, BUT I especially love the jewelry. I have bought several rings here that all of my friends comment on when I wear one. The sales girls are really helpful and they always have great new things coming in. It is certainly one of my "must stop in" shops when I am on Abbott Kinney. Love, Love, Love it!!! read more

Loved the clothes and selection at this place. The salesgirls was extremely helpful. She quickly determined what my style was and helped point me in the direction of items that matched it. I got two great dresses that I LOVE! read more

As a business owner in Venice I have been following this thread. Although I don't know the owner of Coutula (been in the store and love it) I believe she was absolutely correct in not honoring a PROMOTIONAL voucher after it had been expired for a number of weeks as the owner has claimed. California law protects GIFT cards and GIFT certificates because they have been paid in full. A PROMOTIONAL voucher is a SALE item that gives you an opportunity, as in a sale in the store, to pay anywhere from 20% to 75% off the cost of the merchandise or service. Stores in CA are allowed to have promotional sales to move their merchandise for a period of time that has a beginning and an end. Although it seems as if, Wendy, from Buy With Me, was trying in earnest to remedy this situation they actually misrepresented the law thereby making me decide that I might never make this kind of deal with them or any of these other promotional websites. As far as I can make out it seems that the only person who was "clearly up to par with California business legalities" was the store owner. read more

Too bad the jewelry is so expensive, it broke the first time I wore it!!! The owner couldn't care less. Boutique prices, but with 99cent store customer service. Arrogant owner doesn't realize that responding to a client's problems is part of the "sale." Think twice about buying jewelry here, they do not stand behind it. Too expensive to just throw away. read more

Friendly staff, I love this store!!! As a fashion designer, I always shop the customer service first.
