It is one of the few businesses inside this pretty mall, and thankfully it merchandises a few racks of sales clothing outside its doors to lure you in! This is a large store chock full of souvenir gifts, clothing, Olukai sandals, hats, toys, insulated water bottles, backpacks, etc. Everything is neat and organized, which makes for easy shopping. I found a pretty Half Moon Bay tee shirt. I thought it was a little pricey for a thin tee shirt ($31.95), but I liked it enough to treat myself. Customer service was friendly and helpful.

There is a Joann's Fabrics (new), dollar store, ice cream parlor, two supermarket/grocery stores, fast food, all sorts of dining locations from dim sum/Chinese to pizza, laundromat, and even a cute little Japanese/Multi-cultural church. The center was originally a green-house (hence the name) owned by members of the San Lorenzo Japanese Christian Church. It was later sold and molded into a local shopping center. It is a classic to the area with more history than most know. It has a reputation for being a bit run down but in the recent years it seems that the owners have been making it much nicer.

Since I am from far away, Socal, I saw that Sao Mai has many great review for being very helpful and super attentive to details to make sure clients get the best option. I ended up placing a deposit even before coming into the store in person as she sent me lots of ring setting options through text message and proposed many great diamonds with good prices! She helped giving lots of useful input in choosing a ring I like, and it turned out to be stunning!

And the pandemic has only made matters worse. I knew I could use some help. So, Camille came over and gave me a 45 minute consultation. With her fresh and experienced eyes, she pulled pieces I had all but forgotten. And, she paired them with things I would have never thought of. Not in a million years. Together, we completed about 5 new outfits! Even after she left, I continued putting things together for hours!!! Amazingly, I'm excited about my clothes again! So, don't shop. Just call Camille and she'll remind you that there's really good stuff in your closet! And you'll have the added confidence to mix and match in new and unexpected ways.

I chose to work with Paul because of his online reviews and I'm so glad I did. Even with my high expectations, he exceeded what I'd hoped for at every turn. Paul not only is amazing to spend time with (explaining lots of little tips and tricks along the way that have been useful and stuck with me), he is also very efficient with a thoughtfully designed sequence of meetings (some virtual to align on goals and define my style, some at my house such as the closest audit, and some at the mall where he prepared fitting rooms and made shopping actually enjoyable). The final product: a wardrobe I really look forward to every day, and even a helpful 'look book' of curated outfits (there's something pretty magical about flipping through the pages to pick out something I like and knowing I have all those items in my closet already!) If you have a similar goal, and want someone to make it an easy and delightful process, I highly recommend Paul!

I had tried multiple brands that offer monthly styling boxes, but I didn't like the styles or quality each time. Paul came in and audited my wardrobe and got to know my preferences and clothing needs, then he used his extensive knowledge and did extra research to find me brands and items that he felt I would love... and I did love them! I was thrilled to find eco-conscious brands that fit my petite frame (very hard to find my size), and Paul solved so many of my clothing issues with insightful suggestions on how to wear specific pieces in a more stylish manner. Also, he made sure my current pieces matched well with any new items, especially since I wanted to keep everything in rotation. My experience was beyond my expectations because Paul is deeply knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, and because I felt he really LISTENED to what I wanted while gently nudging me to expand/improve my style. I look forward to working with him again in the late spring so I can refresh my summer wardrobe!

Jewelry Art Center said yes we can repair your ring, we're a bit busy it'll take a few weeks.

Mary Lou makes the process really personalized, easy to do, and delightful. She helps match the colors not only to your skin tone, hair, and eye color, but also to things like the way you like to show up in life, and personal goals you have. We enjoyed the color sessions so much that we invited Mary Lou to come to our homes to do closet consultations. I was delighted to find that many of my clothes were the correct color, and she showed me sophisticated ways to put them together into outfits I hadn't considered before. She also knew so many easy tips, like about arm length and the right position for jewelry, which have made even outfits I already use much more attractive. I really can't recommend enough how great a gift it is to get a color session. Give the gift to yourself or a friend. Mary Lou is very down to earth and makes it a really easy step-by-step process.

Babyproofing can feel like you're both overthinking and underprepared--but Ben made the whole process feel easy and completely stress-free.

He even installed our convertible car seats while he was here, which was such a helpful bonus. If you're feeling overwhelmed by childproofing, beep! beep! is the way to go.
