What items are you most looking forward to sharing with customers this season? Our fall and winter collections are so comfy and chic! One of my favorite pieces is our 5-way dress. This versatile dress can be worn five ways and is ultra- flattering. We get new arrivals daily and have great holiday tops and dresses coming in.


Describe your ideal customer. Anyone who wants cute, stylish clothing and acces- sories. We have a wide range of clients, but we often cater to Manhattan Beach’s trendy moms. A lot of our customers come into the store with a preconceived notion that certain clothes aren’t meant for their body type or age, but we style them into age-appropriate clothes and accessories.
