I stopped into this boutique during an evening stroll and unfortunately had a really uncomfortable…read moreexperience. I had my baby with me in a carrier, and from the moment I walked in, I felt like I was being closely watched. While I was in the dressing room trying on clothes, I was talking softly to my baby to comfort her. The employee stood right outside the dressing room and was giggling at what I was saying, which made it very clear she was listening and hovering nearby. Instead of feeling like a customer, I felt like I was being monitored, as if there was concern I might steal something. And then as I came out of the fitting room and let her know I didn't find anything and thanked her, she went straight into the room, I have no doubt to make sure I didn't steal anything. As a mom just trying to shop with her baby, this felt really discouraging and unwelcoming. I left feeling uncomfortable and out of place. I hope the boutique can work on creating a more inclusive and respectful environment for all customers.

A friend and I went into Pretty Little Things today 3/11/23 around 1:30pm and were met with a rude…read moreemployee that rushed us out of the store. When trying things on she urged us to be careful with the dresses as if saying they wouldn't fit and then allowed absolutely no kind customer service to shine through in our interaction. While we could hear her interactions with other customers as sub par customer service, we were disappointed by how she acted towards us considering we are frequent customers. This was a very unfriendly experience and environment and I hope nobody else has an interaction like that!

I was drawn in to Hazel by some casual pull on pants, perfect for the kind of traveling I do, on their sale rack. Though I didn't get them, I tried on loads of clothes while my husband had a long and extremely enjoyable conversation about music with the absolutely wonderful sales clerk. Truth be told, all of the brands I tried on are national and could be gotten anywhere but I did end up with one pair of pants at a great sale price. Veering away from the sale rack I noticed an excellent curated collection of jewelry, shoes, scarves, and clothes.

Of course I had to buy a million adorable outfits for him. Inside Out carries a huge stock of the most precious onsies, lounge pants, shirts, and other clothes for babies and toddler. They had beach and outdoorsy themes that were perfect for what I was looking for. They also carry women's and men's clothes, jewelry, knick knacks, candles and other gifts. It's a great one stop shop for gift buying with super friendly staff. They offered to take my items to the register while I finished shopping. One of my favorite boutiques in town.

Serendipity is one of those boutique stores you will find me here 10/10 times if I was in the area…read more They offer beautiful boho-chic wear and free-spirited jewelry in a very organized and tidy moderate size space. In addition to clothes, they also sell adorable home good items. Now thank god I was with another couple so I didn't spend a lot of time here because if I was by myself, I would hurt my wallet's feelings. Gold Arrow Necklace- I love this necklace. It really goes with just about anything and is the perfect short length, which I find sometimes with certain necklaces can irritate my collar bone when it dangles. I believe I only spent $29 on it. Overall Service: Very welcoming and great personalities. I can see them engaging with customers when they need assistance and for someone like myself who was just perusing, they gave me the space to do so.
