I've been coming to this cute boutique store for the last couple years for some adorable unique gifts. They have a variety of Voluspa candles- which are my go-to candles for freshing up mi casa. I love that this store has everything a girl could need in one spot. They have housewares, purses, clothing, jewelry, houseplants and cute handmade cards. I love coming here knowing I'm support a local owned business. During COVID times they have kept up to date with requiring patrons to wear mask and limiting the amount of people in store, which I really appreciate. read more

Went back in today for some jewelry and picked up a pair of hoops with pearl drops! Got many compliments wearing them today to a lunch meeting! There are SO MANY special pieces to choose from. Love this local boutique! read more

Super cute aesthetic. The layout is relaxed with a nice array of gifts and fun finds. Truly a little gem in the neighborhood happy I stumbled on this shop read more

Beautiful little boutique with nicely curated merchandise from clothing, jewelry, to home goods. Layout of the store is elegant and relaxing. Most of the items are neutral colors and casual styles, befitting to the locale. Most of the items were about $60-80 each. Whether that's reasonable or not is a subjective question. To me, it's about the price of one hour of shrink talk to it's well worth it! ; ) Definitely a great place to check out for tourists as you won't find one of these in every mall. read more

The owners are so helpful and kind. They really understand plants and gift-giving, and always try to help you find the perfect item!

I'm so upset right now... I bought some pants for my daughter-in-law. She has gained weight recently and so they won't fit her. I bought the pants November 7th. I went to take them back to get a refund or store credit. They told me since I DID NOT ask for a gift receipt I will not be able to return them OR GET STORE CREDIT. Their policy is: returns only within 7 days, with a gift receipt you have 30 days. As a customer service courtesy they should have told me about their policy, which is highly unusual for a small business. I was getting help buying for Christmas so the sales girl knew that I was buying gifts and never mentioned a gift receipt. So I'm stuck with a pair of pants that I bought for $64. That if I knew to ask for a gift receipt I would be getting store credit. Upset, customer ( They lost a good customer) read more

Lovely boutique! You can tell a lot of time and love goes into curating this store. Great selection of products from clothes and accessories to homewares and gifts! They carry my favorite candle (Topanga by Roen). I'll definitely be stopping in again the next time I'm in SD! Tudo bem. read more

Ladies! Don't hesitate to make this a must on your list. I hit the sales rack first and was thrilled that everything was 50% off. From jeans and dresses to flowing cardigans, jewelry, candles, and more, the Rare Bloom has so much to browse and offer. It's nicely laid out with plenty of space to navigate racks. The displays are wonderfully done and the items are fairly priced. The atmosphere is calming and inviting but most importantly, the merchandise is awesome. I found an and bought an array of clothing and the pieces will be headed back East in my suitcase. I recommend you have a nice lunch and venture over to this fun and well appointed boutique for shopping and browsing. It would be a perfect place to find a sweet pair of earrings for a gift or a candle for a hostess gift. read more

One of those lovely boutiques that you only find at no less lovely places like the area called La Playa in Point Loma. I like small stores like this one and even more when they don't try to rip you off but just make a decent living. Prices were very affordable. Many pieces were made in Italy and you can touch by the tact the excellent quality. Pretty hats, scarves of all colors and unique outfits, for beach bums or party goers. My girlfriends and I were looking for some white dresses for a Diner in Blanc party and even though the lady who runs the place had wonderful outfits, we couldn't find our size or style. Still, we were able to try all we wanted, ask questions, and not being pressed at all to buy if we didn't find what we were looking for. Lots of pretty jewelry too. A true atemporal boutique. read more

Don't need to be ignored Update : spoke tot he owner who immediately made this right ... please give this small Business a try , the clothes and gifts are adorable ! read more

I'm obsessed with this boutique. I've found so many cute items from accessories, candles, dresses, but my personal fave: jeans. I dread jean shopping but with the cute selection and the help from the owner, I was able to find my dream jeans. On top of it all, the store itself is cute and welcoming! Would highly recommend! read more

Rare Bloom - Women's Clothing Near Me - San Diego, California

Love this store! Cute and mostly affordable clothing and gifts. Id like to give 4.5 stars and would give 5 stars if the young lady working there had noticed me, gotten off her phone and offered any customer service. Love what they sell in the store! read more

Rare Bloom is a gift store that beautifully showcases home decor items like artificial flowers, vases and so on. I love the way they make any space come to life. read more

I just HAD to post this review--you see, this shop is truly a "rare bloom" among boutiques...and we have travelled the world over. Chic. Boho. Current and hip, but not faddish. Honestly, I would drive an hour from north county if only for the amazing soaps! But normally, I have my wife with me, and Lawdy Lawdy, we can't leave without a lot more than gourmet soaps! Beyond the selection and "vibe", I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the staff and ownership. We ALWAYS feel special--they're attentive without being in your personal "space". They're genuinely helpful and interested. I especially noticed how they are this way with every customer--women/men, diversity of cultures, etc. Not an ounce of bias or favoritism--if you are in their shop, prepare to be treated with respect and to leave with a smile on your face. I just wish there was a way to offer a 6-Star review!!! read more

I was nearby the area and saw this cute little shop and decided to stop in because I needed a gift for my girlfriend. This place was so amazing! Not only did they have the perfect gift for her, but the people working there were super helpful. Loved it! Thanks so much! read more

I happened upon this cute little shop after the farmer's market one day. The owner was very welcoming and the store is full of great gift ideas and clothing. There are orchids and great succulent arrangements, as well as picture frames, handmade jewelry, luscious soaps, candles, quaint tea cups, stationery, hats, purses, scarves, and clothes. Everything is reasonably priced. I'll definitely be back! read more

Went here for a last minute gift and they had so many options, it worked out perfect. I'll have to tell my wife to check out the clothes. They have really cool and unique stuff. Check it out. read more

Rare Bloom is my all time favorite boutique for clothes shopping. I've been coming here for years and I continue to wear the unique outfits I've gotten 4+ years later. I usually online shop because I hate looking through mountains of clothes in person but it's so nice to have a physical place where only the best curated pieces are there for you and you'll come home with something you love. Great spot for gifts and cute cards as well. The shop owner Sarah really takes pride in her shop and I love supporting a local woman owned biz! read more

Rare Bloom - Romper from Rare Bloom, they usually carry some cute ones during summer - Women's Clothing Near Me - San Diego, California

I Love this little Boutique. It has Clothing and some wonder gifts. Best of both worlds. Great quality clothing and every time I visit they have new items. Ladies give it a try you will love it read more

Great shop with helpful staff. Megan M.'s/Lisa N.'s reviews are complete, privileged nonsense. Customers either want to be left alone out of COVID concerns or they want the same level of service as prepandemic shopping. It's a no win for the staff. Be a grownup and ask for help if you want it. Don't expect staff to read your mind. Your other negative reviews are the same kind of self centered nonsense. Seems like you want the red carpet rolled out or you vent on Yelp. 1 star for a Vons and five stars for you plastic surgeon!? Who cares!? What a joke. It is absolutely crazy to expect the same level of experience as you would have prepandemic. No one cares if you didn't feel special while shopping. read more

This place is so cool she gets it bravo girl don't stop stay open you will.survive your style shines do you never give up haters gonna hate just keep smiling read more

This a perfect shop to find some beautiful items, and it is a pleasure to shop here. Always friendly, helpful, no pressure. Some of my favorite comfy clothes read more

I am so disappointed. We live in OB and I have been wanting to visit this place, finally did this evening. I came with my husband and toddler, who was looked after the entire time and gave me some time to shop. The business owner, Sarah, was rude and never smiled once at us, even when we checked out. From a small boutique, I would expect much better customer service and warmth. I will not recommend this place to our large friend and family base in OB. read more

Love, love, love this shop. The nicest people to work with. Very helpful. Great for buying gifts for friends. Can't say enough good things about this place. Love the trendy clothes as well. Don't miss it!! A rare gem!! read more

Sarah, the owner, was so accommodating and sweet! I came in to exchange a birthday present, and sarah was able to help me find the exact size and style I was looking for. I felt bad because I arrived close to closing, but sarah didnt make me feel rushed at all and was very nice about getting my fitting room started and finding sizes for me, etc. Thanks for everything sarah! I'll definitely be back :) read more

Love the the variety of options this place has. If you're looking for quality and something casual, formal or sexy to wear, this place has it. Great selection of candles and the cutest cards and jewelry. Really a one stop shop if you need to put an outfit together or a gift. Friendly staff, they help you when you need it and not overbearing like some boutiques I've visited where it feels like they just want to sell you something. Only wish is that they had some extra small items. Thank you! :) read more

I love that this store is local and woman-owned. Everything is so beautifully curated!

This review is so overdue. The ladies that run this amazingly cute boutique are so sweet! Looking for a cute new outfit, jewelry or a gift? This is the perfect place that has it all! And you know the items are unique and you won't run into someone wearing the same item! Great prices and top quality items. See photos for all the items I scored at this cute shop. I'll be back soon! read more

Very cute boutique and the service is always friendly. My family found a new piece of clothing or accessories everyday they were here visiting. The clothing is all fun clothing for women 20's age group and up; nothing super trendy or crazy, just great finds. I have found some great pieces here, I am really glad Point Loma has this place. read more

A special shop with really nice items. The buyer has exceptional taste. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Wow, what a neat little store. It has really unusual and fun clothes. Classics too. I was amazed to have just stumbled on this gem. The outside was alluring too. Inside they have fun jewelry, soaps, creams, cute small gift items but the clothes....oh boy were they great!! Odd the way that "Yelp" has it listed as a jewelry shop, its way more than that. I'll definitely make the drive to go there again. Sure hope it doesn't drift away like so many wonderful little shops have. The prices are reasonable as well. Oh and the shopkeeper was very sweet and helpful too. You do have to go here, you won't be sorry, honest. read more

Love this little boutique! Every time I come here, I always find a piece of clothing or jewelry. The prices are very reasonable, too!
