Such a surprisingly awesome selection of Women's clothes and accessories in the heart of downtown San anselmo. Every time I stop into this store I find something to buy - whether or not my bank account approves. They carry a variety of high end brands (Mother jeans, Sundry, Ulla Johnson, Paige) and some interesting newcomers. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, ready to help find the perfect item for whatever occasion. read more

This store is a neighborhood gem! There is a super cute curation of clothes and it is always exactly what I want to be wearing for casual clothes and special clothes. Having been through pregnancy and postpartum several times in the last few years, it has been so important to me to have a place to go try on beautiful clothes and have friendly helpful women talk to me about what will work with my new body and new stage of life. The clothes are not cheap; they carry great brands that make well-made clothes that will last a long time. If we were ever to lose this great store right in our neighborhood, it would be extremely sad so make sure to check out Kismet before heading to a big department store or placing your order online! read more

This is my go-to boutique, never fails me! They have an awesome selection of cute dresses, tops, a variety of jeans, comfy clothes, even shoes. It's very easy to walk out with a whole outfit, almost too easy:) And Jill who works there is beyond helpful and committed to the customer's satisfaction. It is a little more expensive than the mass fast fashion places, but the quality is great and the pieces I get there bring me joy. Highly recommend if you are looking for a cute, all around boutique. read more

Horrible, unfriendly...why am I going to buy a"The Great" blouse at 250$ if you cannot even say hello.

Not surprised at all to see several negative reviews. My mother and I stopped in to this boutique today after having lunch at a restaurant nearby. Not only did the staff not greet us or ask us if we were finding everything ok, the woman behind the counter (maybe the owner?) was downright snotty and rude. My mother inquired about the price of a necklace and the woman behind the counter first acted as if she hadn't heard my mother, then after my mother inquired again, responded as if she was doing a HUGE favor by telling my mother the price. She did not even look at us while she spoke, had a scowl on her face and it was extremely obvious she wanted nothing to do with us. Mind you none of the necklaces had price tags on them. I am not sure if this woman just hates her job or is actually a really unpleasant person, but she should probably seriously reconsider her choice of profession since retail generally requires trying to encourage people to purchase your merchandise. I will never set foot in this store ever again and will make sure to tell anyone I know who is heading to San Anselmo to avoid this store unless they want to be treated like garbage. The clothes were actually cute but very overpriced. I still might have bought something if the staff had been friendly. read more

LOVE this place. Every time I come in, they have the most stylish, classy clothes and shoes. I can't walk out without buying something. Top that with the nicest girls working, and I'm a happy customer. Yeah, it's a little pricey but it's actually fairly reasonable for the area and certainly not abnormal for boutiques in general. My only suggestion, which is really totally self-serving and goes for all boutiques - please carry more petite sizes! :) read more

This is a great botique that carries some of my favorite brands. I love their selection of Rebecca Beeson, Michael Stars, Ella Moss, and Three Dots, to name a few. It seems like I always find something I love when I go there. Also, both of the owners are really welcoming and great at giving you fashion tips. Overall one of my favorite botiques (and I'm a big shopper :)). read more

Snotty owner/cashier. She only carries sizes xs, s and m. When I inquired about additional sizes (not one single large )? She made me feel like an freak. Very unpleasant experience and this clothes shopper will not be back. I want to support San Anselmo businesses but this one is living in the past. read more

Cute little boutique in downtown San Anselmo. They have a nice range of labels and price points- I got a really cute blouse on mark down that I love. read more

Kismet is a cute little boutique without the snobbish atmosphere that one can encounter in a lot of other places. The Place is very friendly and minimalistic decorated and the brands are quite eclectic. Laundry, 3dots, yogi, beeson...you name it. The owners are awesome. Barbara is superfriendly and knows how to choose her merchandise to fit your style. read more

Kismet has great clothes for casual to dressy occasions. Erica, the owner, and her sales staff are really helpful (never pushy), give good advice and provide excellent customer service. After searching all over Marin and SF, I found the perfect dress to wear to my daughter's Bat Mitzvah at Kismet (and I'll wear it again and again because it's so cute and hip). Kismet is now my "go to first" boutique! read more

This is a beautiful little store with a great selection of quality chic brands. Lots of Cole Haan among others. Prices range from $100.00-$500.00. I only seem to have eyes for things at the upper end of that scale so I'm only allowed in here for five minutes at a time. They also have some nice clutch purses and seasonal accessories. read more

A lot of high end labels (those of which I forgot already!). I dont think it's something I would enjoy wearing but it's for young 30s -early 40s. read more

I love supporting local businesses but after my experience at Kismet with my friend I won't be shopping here again. We walked around looking at different items and the woman working couldn't be bothered to even look up from her phone to ask us if we needed anything. Only after my friend had tried on shoes, she found the sizes herself, did the woman say anything to us. This disappointing experience has soured me from ever shopping there again and I was a good customer. read more

I have been in this store more than once and both times the experience has not been pleasant or welcoming on either occasion. I was in the store today and the owner was having a complete conversation about her hair dye with another customer while I was browsing. It was an awkward and too much info and didn't seem appropriate. As I left the store the owner did not bother to acknowledge me exiting guess her hair dye conversation was important than actual customers. This store is located in a cute place the owners needs improvement on customer experience and professionalism. Otherwise a decent store. read more

Kismet has a wonderful selection of well-known designers and brands that are right on trend. I prefer to shop at locally owned boutiques rather than corporate giants, so it's nice that I have a place to go to find all my favorite brands. read more

Now that erica is the sole owner I have noticed that even though I'm a woman of a certain age, let's just say I won't be seeing 65 again anytime soon., that she and I have the same taste. I love this place. In the last six years I have noticed that most of my wardrobe is from this shop. They have great scarfs, a wonderful selection of jewelry by lots of local artists like Jennifer Tuton and also others like Chan Luu All price points can be found here. And women over 65 you can shop here. I'm constantly getting compliments on my outfits and they are always from here. I am In love with this store. They carry lots of Velvet and Trina Trunk and have styles not seen in other shops. Plus the people who work here are kind and caring and very community oriented. By the way I stop in several times a week and I've never heard gansta rap ever. I think the reviewer who posted that had been in a different shop or dreamed up the music. read more

Owner is nice, the staff helpful and the selection is small but great. If you like boutique and you are ok with high prices for high quality, this is a great place to shop at! I found tasteful clothing and just the right selection to make my shopping experience easy and a success! read more

Amazing! Wish I could try it all on and hand over an unlimited credit card. Beautiful, just sooooo expensive. read more

Kismet - Fashion Near Me - San Anselmo, California

Hands down my favorite store. Always have a great selection of gorgeous, flattering and quality apparel for all shapes, sizes and ages. The staff is always helpful and inspiring, they give the best ideas for my wardrobe and pairing choices. It's like having my own personal stylist! If I ever have a special event this is the first place I stop, they always have incredible dresses and slacks. I also love their selection of denim, T's and blouses. Its the perfect store for everyday and/or something special for an occasion. The owner, Erica, is incredibly friendly and sweet, as is the rest of her wonderful staff :) This beautiful store is a one-stop-shop, I always leave with something I love and feeling like a million bucks because of the experience! p.s. The jewelry is beautiful too! Lots made from local designers! read more

For a new store I enjoyed the customer service and the overall selection. I feel as if the selection is fairly repetitive but I wouldn't mind shopping here from time to time. read more

I have always loved Kismet, and especially love supporting small local businesses, but I had a terrible experience there recently. My friend and I went in after noticing a cute pair of shoes in the window. The sales woman was sitting behind the counter, staring at her cell phone. We were not greeted, and we proceeded to continue through the store. For approximately 20 minutes we walked through the store, without being acknowledged, while she continued to text on her phone. I tried on three pairs of shoes with no notice from the sales associate. It wasn't until another, older, woman walked in the store that she looked up from her phone to ask us if we needed any help. By that time I had already decided what I wanted with no help from her. Her behavior almost turned me away from buying anything at all. I don't expect to be followed around the store, but to be constantly texting while we needed help was unacceptable. I expect better customer service from a boutique like that, especially when we are the only people in the store. read more

Kismet, fate, not sure the name fits the shop. I have been here 4/5 times and have bought four tops and I do love them, I think the owner is very rude and the prices a bit high, I also have noticed that the sizes are getting smaller and smaller, so not sure I will be shopping there anymore. read more

This is my first low Yelp review. Purchased a number of gifts at the store over the years and used to be a big fan. Good inventory for gifts, but my recent experience means I won't go back and recommend that others do shop there. I recently purchased a ring as a gift and told sales associate that I would return if it was not the right size. When I went to exchange the ring, I was told that I could not return it for a different size. Asked to speak to the owner. Sales associate returned my call on behalf of owner and reiterated a return policy that I was not aware of at the time of purchase. They did offer a store credit, but I was told I would need to purchase a new ring on special order without using the store credit. Asked to speak to the owner and was told that she would call me. Never received a call from the owner after leaving a few messages. Had to dispute charge on my AmEx, and I recommend doing the same if you have a problem with returns there (AmEx reps were amazingly helpful by the way). I went from a Kismet fan to someone who would not recommend that anyone shop at the store. read more
