They carry up to 3x in store, and provide alterations on the spot. Brands include Emily & Fin, Trashy Diva, Loco Lindo, Unique Vintage, and lots of smaller brands I've never heard of, including a house brand. Prices range around $130 for dresses, less for skirts and tops. Excellent sale rack. This is such a find. The best part was how patient the staff person was with my 5- year old as he insisted on trying on petticoats and prancing around the store. I felt welcomed, affirmed, and overwhelmed by the gorgeousness in this shop. Definitely recommend.

Turns out they don't sell mens clothing so I decided to buy an outfit for my girlfriend which I know is a dicey situation, but the Saleswoman/Stylist Carly was very helpful.

The place is kind of hard to see as I almost walked right past it but I highly recommend checking it out. Carly was a great help as I am a man and didn't know what the hell I was shopping for.

Apart from clothes Francesca also has a lot of accessories -caps , hats ,shawls ,scarves ,hair accessories ,sunglasses , shoes and bags . They have a great discount for first time buyers and then ongoing discounts for people who are already enrolled in their texts .

Quality isn't there, which is fine. Sometimes you want the current style to refresh your basics and you know it won't be in style next year. At Francesca's you can buy that floral blouse or sparkly jumpsuit or plaid shawl or Sherpa vest and still have money left for the leopard print booties and fringe earrings! Today I scored an oatmeal colored cowl neck sweater for just $14.95. Less than the price of a glass of wine and appetizer! Looks great with jeans and ankle boots and will definitely last the season. Francesca's also has a large selection of necklaces, pendants, earrings, belts, scarves, hats, shawls, hair accessories - everything to take your outfit to the next level. It's fashion jewelry so it's inexpensive, but many are knockoffs of expensive on trend pieces. Again, this is where I go to buy the colorful Pom-Pom earrings, fringe earrings or long tassel necklace. Fun gifts and stocking stuffers also. Notebooks, pens, faux succulents, jewelry dishes, bath soaps, lotions, wallets, clutches, lipsticks and more. The ladies that work here are super friendly and helpful.

This boutique opened very recently and I was ecstatic. It's close to other popular shops like…read morePortland Leather Goods and Salt & Straw, which I like to frequent when I'm in town visiting. This location saves me a trip out to Bridgeport Village where their other shop is located. Anyway, if you're unfamiliar with this slow fashion brand, Eileen Fisher uses high quality, eco-friendly materials. It is a bit pricey, but well-worth it IMO. But, not to worry, if you're on a budget, they have a trade-in program where they take back worn (in good/fair condition) items and re-sell them at a discounted price under their Eileen Fisher Renew collection. A circular fashion model where nothing goes to waste. This location is a bit bigger than the one in Bridgeport. The employees are very nice and helpful. I like the simple, timeless design of the clothing and the fabrics feel good against your skin. I always find something when I shop at Eileen Fisher. This time around I bought a maroon-colored top to add to my wardrobe. Now, if they would only open a storefront in Hawaii...

Evidently it's been here for years! It's definitely off the beaten path (NW 24th off Thurman) so you need to know it's here to find it. If it was on the main drag of NW 23rd or had better signage, I'm sure they would get a lot more foot traffic. That being said, the day my friend and I stopped by, there were several other ladies there. Once you visit the boutique, I'm sure it will be on your list of shops that you make a point to visit frequently to see what's new. Oxalis offers an eclectic mix of clothes, jewelry, shoes, hats, scarves and even some metal wall and yard art. A little bitof a lot of things! Clothing is classic, well made and on the high end. Lots of cashmere shawls, sweaters, and scarves, for example. Beautiful functional rain coats and jackets, perfect for the PNW. Jewelry from local artists is on display in the cabinet when you enter. Definitely check it out! The shop is on the first floor of an old home so you wander from each of the small rooms to discover treasures. Customer service is helpful, friendly, but not intrusive. Call your girlfriends and make an outing, grab brunch or coffee (St. Honore is around the corner) then wonder over to Oxalis for a lovely shopping experience.

In the 18 years I've lived here, I've never seen a boutique on par with a foundation. Foundation is on NW 23rd a few doors down from Blue Star Doughnuts and across the street from See Eyewear. It's located in an old white house. The boutique is bright, clean, airy with a modern edge and so is their clothing! They have curated a collection of high-quality, easy pieces that go together effortlessly and can create a new stylish outfit or blend with items you already own. Most everything is black, white, gray, taupe and other neutral shades, most all solid colors, with a few items in a pop of color. You could easily buy an entire capsule! Slacks, blouses, dresses in every length, jumpsuits (which are on point), blazers, jackets, and coats. This store is not packed with clothes, but they have several options in each category and all are exquisite. Along one wall is a gorgeous selection of unique jewelry that also has a modern edge. Check out their rings, necklaces and earrings! Love! In the back section by the dressing rooms there are shawls, the newest scarves from Chen Liu, denim and some killer boots! I fell in love with a pair of very high waisted pants with wide legs that were fitted through the hips. Love that style and I really wanted these pants. They were too tight in the mid waist section and they didn't have a larger size otherwise I would have bought them in both black and white. The sales woman gave me the name of the designer and website so I could try to find my size. Prices are varied, something in everyone's range. Even more important, whether on the high or low end of the price range, they are a real value for quality, modern, easy to wear separates. The 2 sales women working that Saturday were friendly helpful, suggesting items that actually worked for my body type. I loved the entire experience and will definitely visit anytime I'm on NW 23rd and will make it my destination when I need a special outfit.

The woman at the front desk (who appears to double as their primary model on Insta) just sat on her phone the entire time I shopped. I was greeted hello and good-bye so that's at least a plus. But, she never stood up and never asked if I needed help in the dressing room. When I walked out to get another size, not a word. For an upscale environment, I would have hoped for more interaction. I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, but am hoping the owner/management will take note so this doesn't happen to other shoppers. I was ready to buy something and decided to take my business elsewhere. It's not that I'm looking for a lot of extra attention, just some would be nice.
