Retail Relief

by fearandloathinginlosfeliz

I have worked in retail and the fashion industry for years, and therefore hate the typical retail experience...I know what they are saying, why, and that its a sales pitch. Mas boutique is walking distance from my house, and I wandered in a few weeks after its opening after eating across the street at Millie's, expecting to be accosted by overzealous sales associates. I ended up spending at least an hour hanging out, talking, sipping on an afternoon glass of pinot grigio with the owner, Shannon. It was by far the most refreshing experience I have ever had in a store. Nothing but genuine love and intuition of clothing and people - and zero pressure. She and her partner will treat you like a friend, not a bag of money. Thanks ladies.

• Pros: Rare finds, especially when you have a last minute event and don't have time or energy to drive to the west side.
• Cons: I want to stay and hang out all day but have to leave at some point

Sweet duds

Really nice, designer stuff that you won't find anywhere else.

Cute puppy running around too. And hot girls / guys everywhere...

• Pros: Nice stuff that I've never seen before! In the time of Urban Outfitters, who wants to wear what everyone else is?
• Cons: Not enough money to buy one of each.

Really awesome service and gear for women

by turbohips

I was shopping with my girlfriend and holy cow they hooked her up. She is smoking and the staff made her break out of her shell. Now I can't stop looking at my woman. Prices were cheaper than I thought and quality was there.

• Pros: Very helpful staff
• Cons: The only con would be that she wants to go there again and spend more money
