The women who worked there were very sweet and cheerful. I was able to find jeans that fit me for just over $100. They also have really pretty costume jewelry, purses, jackets, and really pretty dresses. The quality of the clothes chosen for the store are beautiful and well made. Everything was in fashion and they had a variety of clothes to fit different shapes and sizes. I am short. Most of the stores I would love to buy things from have only clothing made for tall and extra tall. This place did not disappoint. Jen, the saleslady found jeans in a moment's notice and they fit perfectly. This is a lovely woman owned new shop that deserves your attention. I am impressed!

Resell or donate the things you no longer find useful, no longer want, and/or no longer bring you joy. The beauty of being a stylish woman? Someone out there wants the things I don't. They really REALLY do. Create space in your wardrobe and jewelry box, get some cash in your bank account, it's all good. Reaching out to The RealReal to start your consignment has never been easier. Once you contact a representative, they can send someone to you home, send a truck to do a front door pickup, or email you a label to ship the items you want to sell. So convenient! Once they receive the items, you will receive notification. They will have their experts review the items authenticity, photograph them, and list them. You will get a link to watch your items as they launch and sell. The cash lands in the account of your choice. Your beautiful things are now someone elses beautiful things with renewed positive energy. It's all so very wonderful and you saved those things from clogging the landfills and littering the planet. It's a win win, my favorite!

On the day of the wedding, the flowers were delivered on time and everything was gorgeous. It was more than I had imagined. They took my breath away. And bonus, my bouquet stayed beautiful for weeks. The centerpieces she designed needed to fit in a candelabra that we used on every table so that the flowers would compliment the candle light. They were absolutely perfect.

But just in case you haven't- all those yuppies that have way too much money than they know what to do with and are overcrowding our once quaint and friendly town are probably treated very well at this store. Everything is ridiculously expensive and the women who work there are snooty and rude. While I was in the shop I heard them saying terrible things about a local shop where the woman does alterations. They would probably glad to have all the established shops in mill valley close down and be replaced by over-priced versions. That's the vibe they give off. Not chill.

Mostly women's clothing but there were some used men's shirts and I have to say, very reasonably priced. I ended up buying a straw hat, a nice weaved worn leather belt, and deal of the day.... a lapis necklace....hey, I like it. We left to go get lunch so Margo could think about the boots and continued our journey. On our way back to the car, we stopped in and I ended up buying 3 neck scarves that I had not seen on my first visit.
