    I had an absolutely lovely experience today at Thread and Seed. I live in the South Park…read moreneighborhood, but this was my first time coming into the store. Upon first entry, the store was clean and well lit, staff were very friendly but not overbearing, and clothes were well displayed. I'm in my early thirties and personally, I struggle SO hard with fashion. I never quite know what looks good on my body, I have no clue what the latest fashion trends are, and I generally feel self conscious about sizing and trying on clothes. Without the help of a stylist or exceptionally kind and fashion forward friend I'd probably always be stuck in the skinny jeans and workout attire life. When I browsed the store, there were a few small pieces that caught my eye and didn't see terribly far outside my comfort zone, so I grabbed those for a fitting room and Ashley, one of the team members, approached me and offered to start me for a room. While I finished my browsing, she guessed a couple of my sizes and added some pieces that she thought I should try. I absolutely LOVE when boutiques do this, as again I struggle so much with fashion and knowing what would look good on me. Ironically she guessed my sizes better than I did, which also helped immensely with the experience. I loved some of the picks that she made, and she also helped get me out of my comfort zone into trying a wide leg pant that didn't make me feel like a box and like I was losing my figure/shape. She checked on me frequently, brought additional sizes as needed, and helped me better understand what clothes flattered my figure and were "in" right now. I left feeling so much more confident about what I had picked up and like I wasn't living a decade behind in my wardrobe. Although the prices of the boutique are a bit higher than you might pay at a chain or big box retailer, the service truly is exceptional and the quality for the clothing seems to be higher. Ashely mentioned their recently opened La Jolla location also offers personal styling services, which definitely is up my alley. I will absolutely return to Thread and Seed and am so grateful for my experience today!

    Really cute and aesthetic products! I bought a birthday card here and they had a lot of items that…read morewould make thoughtful gifts! The service was excellent - I don't remember her name but the person working behind the counter was extremely friendly and helpful. Products are quality and I think you can what you pay for value-wise.

    I love this little gift shop! You have to come here right before a show at the Old Globe is…read morehappening, because they are only open during shows. They always have cute stuff here, both related to the shows and just general theater-esque gifts. From the times I have shopped there, I have seen magnetic poetry, books, soundtracks, mugs, jewelry, and clothing. I have purchased many original Broadway-cast musical CD's from there. There are books and movies available too of shows that have been shown at the Old Globe theater, including Rocky Horror Picture show (part of the 2011 show lineup). This is a great place to pick up a gift for any fan of the theater, especially Shakespeare. I recently bought a mug from this shop that had King Henry VIII and his "disappearing wives", when you pour hot liquid into the mug, the wives fade away to reveal their names and how their marriages ended with old Henry.

    Very small shop which is fine. Not very many options and nothing really worth buying. I felt like I…read morewas being "watched" as if I was going to take something. Not that I would ever steal but there wasn't anything worth buying so why steal? Maybe I misinterpreted the woman's actions but I'm rating based off of how I felt as a customer. Anyways, they do sell shirts and have little thinks that you can look at. You can easily spend 5 minutes in there and be able to look at everything twice in that amount of time.
