    I freakin love this place! All things goth, metal, emo, alternative! Ipso Facto is a hidden gem of downtown Fullerton. It's on the far end of the strip. Quiet location. They have a ton of stuff that made my gothy heart throb! Shoes, shorts, jackets, pants, purses, jewelry, stuffies, crystals and incense. What more could an alternative style girlie want?! I grabbed some jewelry, a healing crystal necklace, some incense. Found what I was looking for, and then some! It's a sea of black clothing when you walk in- love it!! They had limited plus sizes, otherwise I would have gotten some clothes. Super fun store! Great selection! Prices were steep, but how often to you find a unique store like this?! Service was fine. This spot is a must if you are in the alternative scene!

    A true goth shop...one of the few around. Open 7 days a week...check the site for updated hours. It's a small boutique, but it's got a little bit of everything. Lots of jewelry, incense, clothing, bags, and some shoes...plenty of combat boots, a few sneakers, and unique heels. You can try anything on...there are a few changing stalls...but you'll have to ask the attendant to cut them loose off the line. Very helpful & friendly staff too. Oh and behind the counter there are lots & lots of fishnet stockings. You'll find that they all have something a little different in design from the other. Definitely a must stop for your darker desires.

    Special ordered these shoes in-store and got them the very next business day

    TL;DR: great selection and customer service, fast responses to email, super fast (basically next day or 2 day) special orders on Demonia/Pleaser shoes. I came here to try on some boots and figure out my size in Demonia shoes. I loved the Camel 201 boots that they had, but they were a size too big. Terri offered to order them in a size 7 for me, but I declined at the time since I was still looking around. I emailed about a week later asking if it was possible for them to special order a pair of Demonia Camel 203's in a women's 7, even though at the time their FAQ stated they didn't do. I got a response the next morning saying that they actually can do special orders for Demonia/Pleaser and updated their FAQ'S to reflect this, and said that I could stop in to place an order. Sweet! The cool thing about Demonia is that they set the price, so you aren't going to find it cheaper elsewhere. I stopped in at Ipso Facto at around 3 or 4 PM on July 3rd to put a special order in. I showed the cashier, I believe it was James, the pair of shoes I wanted and he pulled it up on the wholesaler website. He had me double-check to make sure it was the right style, size, and color, then placed my order and had me pay and give my contact info so they could contact me once they got my order in. 10:55 AM on Thursday the 5th, I got a call from Terri saying my shoes were in and I could go in and pick them up. Since July 4th was a holiday I consider that to be basically next day, and James did state that they usually get them in the next day after they place the order. I stopped by at around 1 and told the cashier (James again) that I'd placed a special order two days before. He asked for my name and to see my ID to verify my identity, then I was out the door with my brand new boots in under 10 minutes. I didn't look much at stuff besides shoes and jewelry (bought myself a cute bat necklace during my first visit to the store), but they seem to have a pretty good selection, and there's two fitting rooms so you can try stuff on. In terms of price, shoes were at least on par with everywhere else, so hopefully their clothes is as well. To those complaining about the price: goth is expensive, if you want cheap/affordable stuff go to a thrift store or fabric store and DIY it like the early members of the scene had to do. Even if it is a little pricier than online, I don't mind paying a couple extra bucks to support a small business, and for the convenience of being able to see it in person and try stuff on instead of blindly ordering.

    I've been a supporter of Stitch & Feather for years. I used to live much closer to one of their…read morestores and shopped there often. The staff was always so friendly, and I always had a great experience. I moved farther away a while ago, so I hadn't purchased from them in some time. When I recently checked out their website, I was impressed by how much they had to offer online. My order shipped quickly, the quality was exactly what I remembered, and what really stood out was their incredible customer service. I ordered a size that ended up being too small because it was the only size available online at the time. I was hoping it would work, but unfortunately it didn't. I emailed their customer service explaining the situation and noticed the larger size wasn't available online, but it was showing as available at one of their store locations. Their team went above and beyond. They were able to transfer that size so it could be purchased online, making the exchange process incredibly easy. Once I returned the original item, I received a full refund, including my shipping costs. That level of customer service is hard to find these days. Stitch & Feather truly went above and beyond, and it's one of the many reasons I'll continue to support them. A1 customer service--I can't recommend them enough!

    This is the cutest store. They're always getting in new items so even if you want to come in every…read morecouple weeks most likely you will find some thing new. I really like the vibe in here and the clothes are very good quality not cheaply made like some stores so if you're in the area definitely stop in!

    I thought I wrote a review for this store but I guess I didn't? I like this store they have a lot…read moreof cute clothes to choose from and accessories, shoes and bags. But the last couple times coming I didn't find a lot. Maybe the styles are just not for me lol. But I did come in the other day to do some shopping therapy and see if they had anything new. I found a cute little pink dress instead of a little black dress, even though I would have preferred black dress since its my favorite color but the pink is another favorite of mine too. They only had a gray and pink one. It's just a simple little dress for summer but they do have a lot of items just nothing that fit right for me that day. But the employees are friendly. They have fitting rooms to try stuff on. I'm sort of picky when it comes to clothes so I'm sure other people would find something here even though I didn't. Its nice for basic everyday wear, but once in a while you can find some super cute clothes that isn't too expensive either. I recommend coming here, since forever 21 closed near me this is my go to place lol besides the mall. Thank you so much for fantastic service, I hope you bring more summer dresses and tops in cause I really do enjoying coming to this store its good priced for everyday clothes like tanks, shirts, shorts, dresses and skirts. I didn't take a picture of my dress or the store but next time I come in I will. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

    This is the kind of place you'd swing by to pick up a last minute piece before going out later in…read morethe day. The quality of their items is very much Shein/Amazon quality (maybe even less). I do love that they have really cute trendy pieces for a super affordable price! The workers here aren't bad and are very standard. You get your stuff, go up to the register, they ring you up, and then you leave. This place has a no refund policy, but you can exchange or get store credit! I would say the store was pretty well organized when I was there, but there's just a ton of basic-ish/trendy-ish Shein-esque items.
