We were recommended Crown Bridal through a friend, and I am so glad we followed through! We were…read morelucky enough to work with the owner Kynda during our appointment, and we had a wonderful time. We started with a consultation to talk about wedding plans, my likes/dislikes of dresses, and set a foundation for the appointment. I was then able to select the initial collection dresses with the help of one of my party members. I enjoyed this process since it allowed me to start with dresses that had immediately caught my eye. Once we started trying on, Kynda was very helpful with evaluating how the dress felt and would offer suggestions of other dresses based on my response. Although we did not find THE dress, we had a great time, and the dresses were all within budget. Thank you Kendra!

We had an Extraordinary time, and got to meet famous wedding dress designer, Randi Fenoli!…read more My daughter, Crystal, said YES to the Dress when she tried on one of Randi's newest creations! The owner, staff and environment were wonderful and I look forward to my other daughter having the same experience in the future. HIGHLY recommend this shop, even without Randi being there. Very easy to get to, relaxed atmosphere with a budget-friendly to high price range. Vintage dresses too! And formalwear accessories. Get champagne while you enjoy the experience!

I am consistently floored by the gorgeous wares available daily. If you buy online, read posts carefully for the time when coveted items will drop and have your trigger finger for payment at the ready bc items this gorgeous go fast... like in seconds. Why? Because there's nothing worse than being haunted by gorgeous vintage that got away. Also, if you've bought from the shop, you know you can trust that items are accurately represented with full transparency, and they arrive clean and ready to wear. I've found that prices are very fair for their type and quality. I still feel ecstatic over each item I've received from this shop. My only complaint is Xtabay's location - on the other side of the country from me! Maybe I can convince my husband to move, but until then, I'm content in following her Instagram - the best thing on the web! Don't miss a Starbucks drive-through update, cameos by Guy Gross, trolling by her brother, best filters and commentary, and incredible, showstopping, so-good-it-will-make-you-cry, vintage clothing!

Everything in this shop is all just a little too pretty and perfect. But the kindly sales gal put me right at ease, telling me to try on anything I please. And I was off to the races. I tried on all kinds of amazing things from fancy furs to demure looking dresses. But alas I did not meet my clothing match that day. Rest assured I will be back to look through this lovely, lovely boutique another day and with any luck, will find something I can't live without on my next hunting trip.

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.

I practically buy every gift for my mother here and usually spoil her because the display outfits are gorgeous. I wasn't shopping for myself but found a beautiful pair of pants for easter and my vacation this spring. Cindy helped me with an entire outfit that's so wonderful. Thank you La Paloma Clothing for continuing to be the best small boutique in Portland!

Just a year after my first review, and I've come to love Paloma all the more…read more A fun point I missed in my original review is: Paloma has been around forever... Well, at least my whole lifetime(+), and that's a while at this point ;). My relationship with Paloma, has changed from a shop where I looked at pretty things, as a little girl with my grandmother - to a staple. Paloma is my go-to place when I am seeking something special and unique for the loved ones in my life. Paloma never lets me down with their expansive collections of accessories, bags, locally made jewelry, and high quality US made clothing lines, such as: Cut Loose and Tianello. Being rather petite, the clothing at Paloma is not always available in my size. However, the pieces I have bought for myself, are some of my favorites. On the other hand, the jewelry is where I really go a bit overboard for myself. I can't resist the exceptional selection of handmade rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings. At first glance you may think Paloma to be a stuffy boutique, but the shop gals are ever so helpful, and friendly. I had worried bringing my kids into the shop would be frowned upon. This is not the case. I've discovered I am welcome to bring the kids in with me. Paloma even has a basket full of toys to keep the little ones busy. In my case, this means I make it into the shop much more frequently than I did before. One last thing: Paloma is an active supporter of community it serves. They support us, and I love to support them by continuing to shop local in their store. 2017 #5

It's a small shop but they were accommodating and didn't bat an eye about shopping with my fiance and our baby daughter. I tried on 5 dresses and 2 I just could not decide on so I got both, one for the ceremony one for the reception. They were so affordable I didn't even get near my budget and they even had a recommendation for where to get alterations since I'm super short and kept almost tripping. They even had me try to sit down, a thought which never occurred to me but seems so obvious as a must for any dress under serious consideration. I felt so cared for with all the advice and knowledge they shared and being helped in and out of the dresses I couldn't do myself. Overall just a positive experience and I would encourage anyone to go there, not just because it's a great cause, but also because it's the kind of positivity every bride deserves.
