It's probably the best bet to get a gift that is cute and unique but you want it to lean more towards being western and not too kawaii and anime. Think of gifting a punny keychain or cute Jellycat versus a Chiikawa plushie or anime acrylic if that makes sense. Meaning that it's probably easier and maybe more acceptable to get a slightly more normie a gift here than it is elsewhere. As you can see, I'm learning what it's like to touch grass and re-integrate into human society. There's a good number of plushies, Jellycat and unique ones like a pink fairy armadillo mole one, tote bags and socks, nice range of jewelry, lots of California themed goods if you're looking for souvenirs that aren't mega generic, and they have a lot of other items as well. As with the quality and high regard some of these items have (Jellycats are NOT cheap), it can be a bit pricier, so make sure that you shop around and check prices elsewhere and that you actually truly care about the person you're getting stuff for and it's not a forced obligation one (family member you're ugh with or coworker Secret Santa that you barely know). Maybe a couple cute things I had my eye on, but it wasn't really for me (speaks volumes about me), but I can see how a store like this works in a pinch if you're gift shopping.

But I went in to find a birthday present for a Chinese girlfriend with really good taste in fashion and maybe buy a cute hair clip for myself. A clerk started giggling at me as soon as I walked into the store. Another sales lady walked up to me with a highly disapproving look on her face. "We don't have anything here in your size," she said. I could just tell she was envisioning me ripping the seams out of one of her $180 skirts trying to zip it over my fat ass. I'm well-acquainted giggles and rejection from clothing sales clerks in Thailand, Hong Kong, China, and Japan. But I wasn't expecting it here. Oh well; they lost my business.

Over the years, I've bought hair clips, cell phone charms, skirts, and dresses. The lady was very professional and nice. She is not pushy at all, and lets me have my time browing through the things. When she recommended an item to me, she was not pushy either. Many times I don't buy anything but just tried a few pieces on. She was not angry, like some other Asian store owners do. They have cute Korean style clothes. The price tags are pretty expensive, but they go on sale after a while, like 50% off. I like many styles there, but sometimes just didn't buy them due to the price. Sometimes they have on-sale items hanging outside the store. $29.99 a piece. I've found great bargains there. I bought a summer skirt, a winter skirt, and a full dress! Great deals.

Having been in this boutique a number of times, I thought it was time that I give a…read morereview--especially since no one else has taken the time to do so. Oz Boutique is at the corner of Main and Third in downtown Los Altos. I really prefer shopping in this type of a clothing store over places like Macys or Nordstroms simply because I can find pieces in Oz that I will probably not see on 14 other women I know. Among the many brands the store carries from France and Italy, I the one that is very creative is Aventures des Toiles. I have a few blouses by this designer, and I always receive compliments on them. They are the articles of clothing that I can dress up or down and feel like a million dollars when I wear them. There are several stylish dresses, pants, sweaters, and accessories available at Oz. The only reason that I did not rate the boutique 5 stars is that there always seems to be a lack of sizes larger than 8-10. I am a 12, so hopefully either the buyer will order more 12's or I will time it better to visit the store. I am fan of Oz in any event!

I can't say enough about the quality and professionalism of this boutique…read more Came here on a referral to buy my girlfriend something because she is a bit of a fashionista and I'm, well, I'm more of a jeans and t-shirt guy. Anyway, as soon as I walked in I was greeted by an extremely courteous and knowledgable employee. The best part was that she was less sales woman, and more my personal buyer/fashion expert! All I had to do was give her some info (I.e. Measurements, favorite designers, and a picture) and she was able to pick out clothes as though my gf was there with me! When I got home and surprised her, I could tell that her "thank you's" and overall excitement was 100% genuine. Especially when she questioned me 3 times on how I knew exactly what to get and wondered if I had taken a female friend to help! Haha Bottom line: this is THE boutique to visit if you're in town and want some high-end European fashion!! :)

So, for those spring chickens out there, this might not be your forte. Round Robin is located in the cute downtown of Los Altos. Never been here before, because I don't usually walk this direction for some reason. One day I did and was like what is this place? So glad I was curious enough to find out. They have sale racks, and two sale rooms inside. Two changing rooms. I didn't ask about the jewelry, mainly because I'm doing well in that department. Walked away with some items that I was very excited to wear. Already worn some less than a week from when purchased. They accept cash, credit and lay away payment. The lady working the day I went was such a kind lady, felt like I could talk to her for hours. One day I'll be back and ready to shop some more.

David helped me, and I couldn't have asked for a better guide through the process. I came in knowing what I liked aesthetically, but not fully understanding movements, GMT functions, long-term care, or how different brands compare. David broke everything down clearly without ever making me feel inexperienced. What I appreciated most was how passionate and knowledgeable he is about watches at every level. Whether discussing entry-level pieces or high-end collectors' watches, he spoke with the same depth and respect. It felt less like a sales interaction and more like a conversation with someone who truly loves horology. If you're thinking about starting your watch journey, or adding to your collection, this is the place to do it. And ask for David! Great experience from start to finish. Thank you David.
