Hoss International is my best recommendation if you are selective like me! The owner and Designer,…read moreHoss, welcomes you with a person-centered approach. He has an exceptional eye for detail and a unique approach to design, combining intricate lace, delicate fabrics, and expert tailoring. Their understanding of fit, comfort, and aesthetic appeal is evident in each piece they create, ensuring that every design is beautiful but also functional and flattering, whether it's a classic corset or a modern lingerie set! I consider several aspects before buying, depending on the type of brazier design aesthetic, materials, and functionality. I get these exclusive bras for durability and versatility. They are ideal for an elegant and feminine visualization that is refined and artistic. These materials can be excellent for focused designs that become a focal point of the outdoor space--a way to elevate yourself.

I appreciate it just being me and like the specialist. She did not use a measuring tape. She clocked it with her eyes on her first try, which is pretty amazing. She obviously knows what she's doing. She really made me feel comfortable, and there were dressing room curtains for me to use when trying on different things. I feel like she really prioritized my needs versus trying to get me to buy many bras, like some other places do. I told her that I plan on losing weight soon and she agreed that I should just stick to one bra. She helped me choose a bra that would be flexible and accommodate some weight fluctuations. I got like a lot of education on like how to properly wear a bra, sizing in different countries, different types of bras, etc. I'm really grateful for it. I found out I was four sizes higher than what I'd guessed I was. It feels great to finally wear a bra that fits well and looks nice. It has positively influenced my self-esteem; a proper bra really changes how clothing sits on the body! I drove up from OC for this and it was worth it! I especially recommend getting fitted here for people with larger chests.

It's supportive, comfortable, and invisible under the dress. My daughter left smiling. If you're curvy, busty, or just tired of bad bra fittings, go see Tiffany.

Have you seen Rachel Mason's fascinating 2019 Netflix documentary about this store? Her parents…read moreKaren and Barry Mason were straight and politically conservative and ironically ran a gay porn empire. They actually closed the store early in 2019, and it was taken over by porn director and drag queen Chi Chi LaRue in 2020. Jamie W. and I dropped by since we were having a vegan Italian dinner at Pura Vita nearby. We had seen the film, so we were curious about it. We were initially wondering where all the books were, but then realized the concept of porn books and magazines has been rendered irrelevant by online access. Instead, there were a lot of strap-ons, dildos, and related accessories. There was also some amusing clothing and niche items like "The Facts of Life" tote bag (photo: https://yelp.to/9SWksWm47n). It turned out there were a few books like Britney's bio and pictorial coffee table books. Trust me, they weren't the kind you'd see at your parents' house. RELATED - Exploring WeHo?

First of all...I'm a pro musician living and working in L.A. I met the owner of Come to Mama,…read moreTerri Mussatti, a little over two years ago in Santa Monica and was so impressed by her personal style that I commented her on it. She then quickly disclosed that she was the owner of vintage clothes shop in Silverlake and to stop by and she would 'hook me up'. We exchanged information and kept in touch...and, no, I never did go into the shop before I met her again in person on the westside (Yes, I admit that I'm a sheltered Santa Monican... going east of the 405 can be terrifying :) ). Anywho, she knew that I was a musician and offered to style me for my next show with vintage (not my usual thing); I just needed to come into the shop and she'd take care of the rest...I ended up taking her up on her offer. I went into the shop and was BLOWN AWAY by the look and feel of the shop. (To be honest my first reaction was 'this is gonna be spendy') So, when Terri wasn't looking I checked out a price tag and was pleasantly surprised to find a great deal for an awesome hand-picked dress. And, shortly after couldn't help but notice (it's the bargain shopper in me)the $5 trunk in the back of her shop. It was filled to the BRIM with treasure! A multitude of beautiful, colorful, mint-condition scarves, some tanks, dresses, belts...a great bikini top... More info: Come to Mama also has hand-made overdye slips and corsets... REALLY kewl chunky-funky jewlery (my favorite thing and the shop next door 'Hung on You' has the most excellent feather earrings)...the scarves are GREAT for headwraps...purses and shoes that no one else has, with almost a 'punk rock' vintage look in mind (not that I know...ha ha). To round this out... I have since changed my entire style and image to a vintage classy but sexy style. Terri has been so lovely as to style me on several occasions and somehow can size-up a piece hand it to me...and it fits PERFECTLY. And, I've seen her in action in the store with other clients and customers. She's very gracious and has a light, loving spirit...stemming somewhere from the 60's or 70's I would imagine ;). She is also straight forward about what Does, and DOESN'T look good on a lady. (My pet peeve is when someone is working on comission and will sell you anything even if it's not flattering.) I guess it makes sense...what looks good on you...will look good for her. Thank you Come to Mama. Can I consider you a sponsor? :)

Come to Mama....just don't come to mama if you are a paying customer and need to use their restroom…read morebecause you will get shut down, homie. So I randomly discovered this shop at the Sunset Junction this year. It was nearing the end of night one and I was taking a break from the Yelp booth and thought I'd stretch my legs a bit and saunter about. Upon walking in, I was delighted at the really cute selection of vintage lingerie, dresses, skirts, and SHOES. I, of course, B-lined for this adorable pair of patchwork Kenzie's (not vintage, but looked very retro) and low and behold they were just my size. Yay! As I was sitting there trying them on, I noticed that the store had one of our Yelp fans up above their scarf case and I thought, Yay, how awesome! They are supportin Yelp, even better! I then went up to the front to pay for my purchase and the space cadet working here, who is also the owner, is really flustered and wandering around the near empty store, until a group of her friends and/or regulars walk in and they say, "Can we use the bathroom" to which she says, "Of course! Go on in!" She then turns around and comes to the register and starts ringing me up. I remark on the Yelp fan and tell her that's really cool of her to support us and I tell her I work with Yelp. As she's ringing up my $52.00 purchase, I kindly and politely ask her if I could possibly use her restroom, please. She says, "No, sorry, I can't let anyone use it." I look at her like, c'mon, you just let 4 people go and use it? Are you seriously going to say that with a straight face? The girls then come out of the back area and say, "thanks for letting us use your bathroom, take care girl" etc, etc. I then look at her, with with my purchase already rung up and say to her, again, very politely, "Really? I did just buy something..." To which she says, "No, we don't have a restroom." Now, this just really pissed me off....yes, every pun intended...but seriously, i am a paying customer, I am polite, I am asking her nicely and she is still saying no. It would have been one thing if I hadn't seen the other girls go in or even understandable if she was an employee and the owner said, Don't let anyone use the bathroom during the Junction. i would have totally understood and respected that, but she was THE owner and for her to let them go right in front of me and then pull that bullsh*t with me was just lame! So while the store has some cute stuff, I just didn't think that was very cool of her. It's not like I was some drunk and belligerent party goer trashing her place in the middle of a packed store, i was a vintage seeking customer who loves to support local shops, purchasing something from her at a slow time in the evening. Whatevs lady, hope your bullsh*t reasoning was worth it.
