This is a nice, little boutique. Good selection of clothes, and what not. Perhaps this isn't for everyone, but you should check it out.

I’ve purchased many items at the Bayview Village location. In August I purchased a lariat style necklace as a birthday gift for my sister who lives out of town. When she put it on, the clasp to hold the ropes to make adjustments was not working properly. It fell. The necklace was a sale item and there is a policy that final sale items cannot be… returned. I fully understand and somewhat agree. However, I returned an item that did not work. They did not stand by their product. Very disappointing! The sales clerk stated that it was the way it was designed and there was nothing she could

While the knit clothing at this establishment is lovely, well priced, and fits a variety of body types, the sales staff are obnoxious with the ethics of a python. They tell you everything looks great, even if it doesn't, and will use subterfuge to try and take your money any which way they can. They ruin what could be a wonderful shopping experience. Caveat Emptor!
