A fabulous boutique like one you would find in NYC or San Francisco, not typically in Portland…read more The clothing and accessories are carefully curated, bringing together a refined collection of high quality items in shades of black, cream, gray, camel and white. The prices are in the high side, especially for Portland, but a cashmere cardigan for $400 is the going rate. The boutique is bright, clean and has an industrial vibe. It's easy to browse through the racks of clothing which line the parameter on racks in a color coordinated fashion. The cashmere dresses are scrumptious! Beautiful in color, texture and style; refined elegance, classic, timeless. Even cashmere loungewear, perfect for staying comfy and warm during these long days spent at home. Kayla, the young woman working that day, was super helpful and pleasant. She easily engages in conversation and provides assistance, if that is your mode of shopping. And also gives one the freedom to browse at their leisure with no pressure to purchase, which is my preference. We visited on MLK Day and were there specifically to see what Oliveve handbags were available since I had recently come across this brand while shopping at the House of Lolo in Palm Desert. Kayla immediately recognized my Jasper bag! The Oliveve bags have a modern design, clean lines, and my bag is made of neutral colored pebbled leather. It's the perfect bag to use while shopping as it is a cross body style yet as large as a tote and holds a lot. That day there was only one Olivevebag available, a black handbag with tan wrapped handles, and my friend immediately claimed it! I'll have to go online (Oliveve.com) to buy my next one, the black oiled Italian leather Eva bag, which I've had my eye on for a few months. In addition to the clothing, they have a small selection of unique jewelry and other accessories like boots, tassels to add to your handbags, hats, belts and scarves. Even a small but unique selection of home decor items like textured throws, pillows, candles, woven baskets and trays, perfume and vases.p to adorn your home. Located on NW 11th in The Pearl District, it's around the corner from the main shopping area so unless you know it's there, you may not stumble upon it. It's worth seeking out if you want to add quality clothing to your wardrobe that you can wear season after season. And while you are there, definitely check out the jewelry, boots and the Oliveve handbags!

You know you are in the Pearl District when you step into a spacious shop with little and very…read moreexpensive inventory. There really is not that much to choose from as the theme here is obviously minimalist. The few things they do have are lovely and for me, priced completely unreasonably. Like I am going to spend almost $1000 on a wool trench coat with some leather trim? Sure, it's a sharp looking coat. But good God, I know we are in the Pearl but is anyone going to spend that much? Maybe I am just not hip with the times and people really do spend that kind of money on a random coat, if so, I beg your pardon. It would be cool if your shop had goods that "normal" people like me, I know I am throwing the term normal around quite loosely but folks probably get my gist. My budget for a really nice and very unique coat is more like $500.00 Unless you are selling Versace or something, consider rethinking your price points. It's just that I see so many shops like this come and go because nobody is going to really shop there. 2015 - Review # 98

The clothing is made right there so you won't find other people walking around in the same outfit! The styles and patterns are unique but not too quirky. In addition to the clothing, there is a small section of locally made jewelry, lots of dangly earrings. there were some shopping totes that are the perfect size. And packs of a towels , a dozen, made out of super soft cotton. The patterns are so pretty - especially the sunflowers - and I would use them as dinner napkins. Service is friendly, helpful but never intrusive. I'm not in the market for this type of clothing right now - retired and living in leggings and comfy tops - but if I need a dress for an occasion, I'll definitely come back.

Some items were super reasonable, and others we didn't quite understand the price - almost $40 for a plain trucker hat with a heart on it left us a little stumped, but we appreciated the availability of plus size clothing as well! The lady who helped us out at the register was so friendly, I assume she was maybe the owner. Totally worth poking around for unique gifts that are beautiful and/or will give you a good laugh!

The folks working were AMAZING! They were kind, encouraging, and attentive without feeling pushy. Eloisa was especially magical, helping my friend feel comfortable and seen.

I think the only thing I would encourage is an increased range of sizes (into the XL+ arena) so that more body types ca be served.

We all have individually different styles and tastes, but somehow the owner kept bringing us suggestions that were SPOT ON! I didn't know Natalie was the owner until later, but up until that point I was like "ok this person needs to be a professional stylist or something!" (Duh, she runs this store so she's doing exactly what she should be doing with her talent!) Natalie could pick up our cues and notice what styles we liked, and yet she would suggest certain new styles that I didn't even know I would like! My sister said she was literally going to cancel Stitch Fix and just ask Natalie what to buy! That's exactly what this experience is --- stitch fix but in person! I really appreciate that she even went to the back and gave us choices on items that weren't on the floor yet - it made us feel special! Plus she knew what was coming in style, which was nice to know because I really don't follow fashion. The pieces at this store are exactly my style: almost an Anthropologie vibe but more staple pieces and slightly preppy. Basically anyone can find something they like here! There are some simple pieces but hang really well on the body, no matter what size you are. I LOVE the fall/winter looks and I was tempted to buy sweaters and jackets even though it was 93 degrees out LOL! (Store is nicely air conditioned.) I also like the price range, which isn't insanely stupid expensive but quality pieces deserve the accurate pricing. (Ranging from 30-$120, not like $250+ like some LA boutique stores.) We liked so many pieces that we kept checking out with more and more items! I didn't even mean to stay for that long! Natalie- we still rave about you and your amazing customer service!! Thank you for a great shopping experience!

Did not notice any service happening. Limted sizes like small and Meduim on some items. The owmer/manager responded to my review below by stating they are a small store and sell out of sizes since they only get 8 of each. They still have limted sizes. I am not sure if the "why" matters if you go shopping and wear a large and there are none. I was not able to view the size or price tags without having to fish for them and pull it out so I could see. I found it annoying when shopping since buying clothes is the main goal. It is not an art exhibit. Maybe they do not know what it is like to be short and not able to easily view the tags. It is amazing how are unaware people people are of size differences. Yes, you can set your store up however you want. Just not every one will find it user friendly.

Of import to me personally is that they carry sizes that fit overweight people. There are many amazing things designed with men in mind, designed with women in mind, or intentionally gender neutral.

Women owned, ethical fashions - Their website has a ton of information about the clothing and its sourcing. What a great space they already have set up and I was blown away by the amount of clothing and options. They are very inclusive with sizing and their clothing is amazing. I'm huge into texture - I need soft stuff and wanted to pet everything. Such quality materials that will last. Also, ask questions since this is the first place I have been in weeks where the person working genuinely knew everything. Having a conversation and suggestions showing they are not only knowledgeable about all of the products but that they have heard you and offer ideas or options of things they sell which will help you out. And I wanted to buy half the store! SERIOUSLY, I was losing my mind and intend to go back again and again. Everything in there is unique. I was heading to a show and decided to drop in before to check out Five and Diamond. I fell in complete love with a sweatshirt coat contraption that is freaking amazing. I even managed to score even more since they had a 30% discount and it was the last day. Went to the show looking great and feeling great since it is now one of the most comfortable and soft things I own. Dropped in on the way home for stupid late night groceries (yes, I am that cool...be jealous) and one of the stock peeps was complimenting the item. We shared a moment since I took a bunch of photos and showed them the store so they could visit. So, be prepared to share because their fashions are very flattering - I am curvy so having things fit right is important. Many clothing companies try to dress us larger sizes with a tent, horrific prints or like we want to accent the most unfortunate areas. They also have a ton of great vegan offerings like rubber purses and belts etc.
