Excuse me? Every single other clothing boutique ever created? Listen up. You're gonna want to hear this. Because THIS is how you run a women's clothing boutique. Actually, I'm going to write it in bullet form, because I could write an entire "Boutique Making for Dummies" book about this place, but that's long and boring. You're probably already reading this on your phone or at work going "SPIT IT OUT, LADY!" So, I'm gonna spit. Parc Boutique is the epitome of what every single women's boutique/clothing retailer should be: - It stocks a large selection of on-trend, adorable seasonal outfits; and offers them at very reasonable prices. - It hires the friendliest, most helpful employees who aren't just smiley, but who can give you an honest opinion when you're trying to decide between items. - The space itself is clean, bright, and well-designed. Whoever their interior designer is, can you please come over to my house immediately? KTHX. - They always have NEW merch. I can't believe how quickly and frequently they get new stuff in. It's fantastic! - They have a functioning website (which lots of small boutiques can't really support). - They have GREAT social media support (like a beautiful, inspiring Instagram account...it's definitely inspired a few purchases from me!) - They host rad events and trunk shows and open houses all the time! - And they have a great loyalty/rewards program where you get money back after you spend a certain amount of money. I love shopping here because even when I spend more than I "should," I love that it goes back to supporting a local shop instead of a big corporation. Plus, I know there won't be 2,000 other girls in the Twin Cities rocking the SAME look. It's just a really happy place, that stocks a variety of sizes and trends and items (dresses/pants/blouses/scarves/jewelry/shoes/hats/name a thing)! Yeah. I'm just relieved it's in Nordeast and not my neighborhood or I would probably be living out of a tent that I made using their clothes... read more

I wish that a fashion portal would open when I open my closet each morning. It'd be like Narnia, without the lion or the witch... just the wardrobe. I'd just pop in to some awesome store, play dress up and then come back through my wardrobe like the Pevensie children. Anyway, Parc Boutique would definitely be one of my fashion portal stops. I follow the owner Thao on Twitter and Pinterest because she has amazing taste, so I should've known how much I'd like this store. It had been a while since my first visit to Parc (when I was young and broke), so my visit last week felt like the maiden voyage. There's a balance of affordability and higher-fashion style here, which I appreciate because that is a balance I try to find on a daily basis. There's a great selection of dresses, tops, jewelry, denim and more---all priced and curated well. The bauble table was where I had the most trouble saying goodbye. I saw the most interesting geometric pendant priced at about $75 (as usual, my eye wanders to one of the most expensive things on the table). Though I couldn't bring myself to drop the cash, I was compelled to put it on my Christmas list eight months in advance. read more

Parc - Women's Clothing Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Parc boutique is hands down the cutest, most-Instagram-worthy, women-run shop in the twin cities. They clothing and shoes they have in stock are trendy but won't go out of style, and are constantly updated. All of the brands they carry are women owned businesses and either local or from around the country. The staff is beyond friendly is they're always happy to help with any questions you may have. As well as clothing, they also carry the cutest natural skin care lines, especially Herbivore Botanicals. If you're in Minneapolis and have a shopping day, I highly recommend you stop in to their shop. read more

See all

I really love the idea of Parc Boutique. It's a locally owned shop in NE, and the windows are always styled to perfection, so I can never resist popping in. I've bought some pieces that I love from Parc, and I'll certainly be back in, but here's my problem: the buyers are clearly buying for a pretty specific body type. If you're curvy, beware that shopping at Parc might make you wish you weren't. I so wish there were a few more options for the ladies of Minneapolis' vast array of shapes. Another little issue: one day I bought three new items, including some faux-leather leggings, a blouse, and a sweater. By the second time I wore each, there was a hole in the seams on every one of them, and not in the places that seemed logical (blouse and sweater got random holes in the wrist area and the leggings split at the knee. Not exactly the aforementioned curvy parts of a body.). The nice thing was that I exchanged the pants for another item, but really I just wanted quality clothes. I love basically every piece of clothing that Thao picks out - seriously, if I could shop only at Parc, I'd have the cutest, most colorful, and probably most affordable wardrobe in this city. But, alas, I'll have to be satisfied with finding a few cute pieces a year. For those of you who can button those blouses all the way up, shop away, please, and let the rest of us live vicariously through you! read more

Appealing to the urbane twenty-thirty-something female crowd. Prices are relatively reasonable; most of the brands are inexpensive, such as BB Dakota, Alternative Apparel, Jack by BB Dakota, etc mixed with higher priced items like J Brand Jeans. Some local stuff like Hackwith Design House. Men's selection is pretty basic but well-made basics. My only complaint is that a lot of the trendier dresses have too youthful of cuts; I don't really want to show off my cooch or my boobs that much. But that's an issue with most clothing in general; these days everyone wants you to dress like an 18-year old party girl, even if it's unflattering or inappropriate. The trendier stuff is cheap but won't last long. From a cost-effectiveness point only you might want to consider Forever 21 or H&M. However, if you want to support both your fashion fetish and local businesses, come here. However, the stock rotates pretty frequently, the sales staff is really nice, so it's always a treat to drop in and browse. read more

Parc Boutique has been a Northeast favorite since entering the scene! The owner, Thao, does an amazing job of bringing super fashionable unique clothes at great places into our marketplace. The entire sales team is great at making recommendations so don't be afraid to ask for help building an awesome outfit. Although the space is not huge they pack a big bang for the buck with everything from shoes, jewelry, belts and a wide selection of clothes. Bonus tip: Be sure to follow Parc Boutique on Twitter and Facebook for lots of great updates and sale information. read more

Thanks yelpers for leading me to this little gem! I was in MN on business and had some time to kill. I ran a quick search on clothing boutiques in the are and Parc Boutique popped up. Super friendly staff! 5 stars all the way. I didn't catch her name, but she was very helpful in getting me there (google GPS pointed me in the wrong direction) , she pointed out all the new arrivals and then recommended an amazing place to eat afterwards. Great clothes and I loved, loved, loved the jewelry. I bought a few things - really reasonably priced. read more

This is an adorable boutique without the cliche prices that always link to the boutiques you normally see. It has a great lay out with amazing display pieces. There are pieces of high end dresses, sweathers, pants, etc with a cute "I heart Mpls" and "612" tshirts to represent the city pride. They had an amazing selection of jewelry. I bought an amazing pair of vintage inspired jade and gold earrings for $10 while they were hanging next to a pair for $45. There is a wide range of prices, but I love how they blend it all together. Amazing customer service... far from snobby at all. She was carrying conversation with us during the whole time but never over pushy on the sale - only complimented out selections. I wish I would have known about this place long before I discovered it (though my wallet probably thanks me...) read more

thought it was a hair salon, until J said boutique. Very trendy, most of the mens clothing has some sort of extra fancy stitching on it, but hey, there was a sale (25% off this weekend) to make room for their new fall assortment (really? its like 98 degrees out!). So I bought a shirt. Button down. Plaid? Who knows these things. Oh, my wife, most women, some men. Not me. It is a little bit country, a little bit rock and roll. no pearl buttons though. Worth a check in to see what there is. Then we went to GH2 down the block where the service sucks, and the prices are too high. As J said re: the service: No need to be snotty little girl, you aren't even cut out for GH1. read more

A beautiful store, with great staff. I have never being anything but welcomed when I have stopped by to browse over a lunch break with co-workers. I have only purchased odds and ends - a yummy candle or small accessory but was very pleased by the clothing/accessory/gift selection. Very on-trend pieces from brands like BB Dakota and I've also seen featured designer collaborations. Cool tie-in with Minnesota roots. A good price point range too. read more

Made a big mistake today thinking that the whole family might enjoy the Northeast Boutique Crawl. Should have known better for thinking the dog, baby and husband would have some stamina and be able to flitter between Northeast's great boutiques. Wrong. The three of them combined had the attention span of a gnat. What was to be a lovely afternoon quickly deteriorated into a full on "melt down" (as we call them), and we bagged the shopping for a late lunch at Pizza Nea. We had stopped at Parc around the beginning of the Crawl. Cute boutique with some nice pieces, all which seemed extremely reasonably priced. There were a couple of things I'd have liked to try on, but, alas, my companions were having none of that. On the bright side, I'm going to schedule a solo shopping venture soon, and Parc is sure to be on the list. read more

This store has made my life a lot easier and my wife happy all with convenience and affordable prices, hard to beat that. It has very nice 'hipster'-ish jewelry and clothing that comes from a lot of local artists and is very nice and reasonably priced. But when I say hipster, I mean fairly grown up hipster, stuff you could wear to a corporate job and would not be out of place, not really funky stuff with all animals etc. For that there is I Like You 2 blocks across Hennepin. read more

I recently moved into the neighborhood, and I finally hit this place up! Definitely worth checking out. More reasonably priced than some of the other local boutiques, but with some of the same great brands such as BB Dakota and Kenzie. Also, the jewelry is super unique and in many cases made by local artists. I haven't purchased anything other accessories here yet, but let me tell you, this place makes it incredibly hard to stick to my budget! Will be shopping here for a NYE dress for SURE. read more

I started shopping here when my friend introduced me to the store a year ago and now I am the one to keep referring this boutique to people! There is a wide range in prices and brands, so you are always able to find something within your budget and style needs. I have become a regular customer. Parc Boutique always has great sales and rewards programs, which include a Sip and Shop where you receive 15% off and can drink wine while you shop! Not a bad gig.... The staff is VERY friendly and accommodating. They definitely have mastered great customer service without putting pressure on the shopper to buy. They are definitely representing what great fashion looks like while working there and offer great fashion advice to customers. They have a really amazing artist eye with their online look books, styling and visual merchandising within the store. They also support local jewelry and clothing designers, which is great to see. I would definitely recommend signing up for emails, or connect with their Facebook page to attend the events. They are always a lot of fun with people, food, wine, and of course clothing (and a sale!). read more

Parc is a great boutique in NE. They have a great mix of expensive/inexpensive pieces. They carry awesome brands, like Fluxus, Costa Blanca, Brandy Melville & BB Dakota. The customer service is topnotch; super friendly & never pushy. They also have a loyalty card - spend $300 get $20 back. Not much, but I'm unaware of any other small business with a deal like that. Also, the first time you check in on Yelp you receive 15% off your purchase. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Not all boutiques are made for my style. Nothing wrong with that, and for those who are young and trendy (while still staying in a safe, none-too-daring zone), Parc Boutique is a nice little shop. It's bright and airy, the employees aren't overbearing, and the prices are in line with what they should be. Unfortunately, in the workplace I have to be more formal than jersey knit, and outside of work, I get a lot funkier than Parc offers. I did manage to find a really cute white lace top that was work-appropriate with the right accompaniments, so I can't blow off the store entirely. Although when it comes to accessories, if you're the type who goes nuts for unique and fun jewelry, I have to say Parc Boutique offers quite a variety. If nothing else, I'll stop in again to browse through that area. read more

I really love this boutique! Not only is it a hidden minneapolis gem, they have affordable luxuries that you can't get anywhere else. Parc carries local jewlery designers as well as brand named jeans like JBrand. the best of both worlds! i bought 2 rings, 1 necklace, a top and a pr of JBrand jeans for under $300! That's usually how much a single item costs in some department stores! I highly recommend for anyone who's looking for quality "investment" pieces for reasonable prices. read more

Love this little boutique. I've bought a few items here and have been extremely happy. I also love supporting local businesses, and this is one shop that I have no problem spending some money in! read more

Be careful when shopping here with a discount code! The shop has a strict "no refund" policy when they are running a promotion and it left me stuck with a hefty store credit that I will have difficulty using (if I can even get over my bitter feelings and go in to the store to use it). My husband thought he was doing a nice thing and snagged a beautiful coat during a storewide Cyber Monday sale. While weighing his options between Big Retailer and Local Sweetheart, he opted to shop local and give the business to a shop he knows I like supporting. Being a dude who assumes every retailer's policy is the same (and reasonable), he didn't think to check return policies before completing the transaction. Unfortunately, the coat was way too big and now my "Christmas gift" is a store credit, rather than my husband being able to take a refund and buy me a coat that fits. We have loved Parc in the past, but, honestly, this brush with rigid customer service lacked empathy and will deter us from shopping here in the future. read more

Great location for this pocket-book friendly boutique in Northeast Minneapolis. Anyone can afford a piece from here and the accessories are awesome! The owner and the sales associates are all very helpful and take customer service incredibly seriously. This is a trait that can be hard to find and Parc should pride themselves on their uncanny service. Whether you are looking for a cocktail dress or casual lunch attire, Parc is your destination for all things basic and luxurious read more

I have champagne taste on a beer budget so this place is way too expensive for me but it's very clear they know their fashion. It's a cute little store so it's fun to go browse for some fashion inspiration every once in a while. They have some cool Minneapolis themed items that could be nice gifts for people or fancy out of towners. read more

The Parc Boutique is a great little shop in NE Minneapolis. It's in the perfect place for an afternoon of shopping and maybe some lunch. Thao, the owner always has a great variety of Mens & Womens clothing and unique hand crafted Jewelry from local artists! read more

Parc is the best place to go for basics. The store caters to those in need of stylish items perfect for everyday wear, minus anything boring. Thao (owner) stays on top of the trends and is very knowledgable about fashion. The store is spacious and has a great layout. In addition to great clothes, Parc also carries great jewelry from local artists with nothing costing over $100. A great place to shop in Northeast! read more

Thought I found a gem...until I bought a few pieces of jewelry from Parc Boutique. Don't get me wrong, I love the unique designs. Especially loved that some pieces were made locally. Well, paid $90 for a necklace, only to have it break on me a week later. Plus, the gold metal started to tarnish. So, I took it back to have it replaced/returned. Still have yet to receive my fixed necklace after too many phone calls and visits back to the store. And most of the clothing pieces are inexpensive for a reason, everything falls apart. read more

Lovely vibe. The shop girls are so sweet and helpful, all the clothes are simple, modern, and chic. Ethically responsible clothing at sustainable prices. I love this boutique :) read more

Really cute neighborhood shop. Reasonable prices and fun accessible trends to purchase.

I like this place and it's in my hood. The jewelry is especially inviting, as is the sale rack. The clothing isn't super high priced, but it's also not the greatest quality. The sweatshirt I bought this spring is already done for. :( Still, I like the spunk of this place and that it offers an alternative to usual mall duds. read more

Nice little place. No real designer labels, but they have some cute items at really affordable prices. Parc currently carries lots of on-trend dresses and tops. The jewelry is mostly local. I wish they would extend that concept into some of the clothing as well, but there's a nice variety of necklaces and earrings. Couple of tips. 1. The store is currently split into men's and women's, but they're discontinuing the men's line to make room for shoes and handbags. (Yeah!) While they're phasing out the men's items, it's all 50% off. I walked in and got some great steals on a couple Ben Sherman's for the husband today. 2. I was able to get an extra 15% off by checking in on foursquare. Nice surprise. 3. They have a loyalty program. Spend $300, get $20. Not a huge discount, but it's a nice gesture. read more

Parc Boutique is by far the best boutique around! Thao always offer superior customer service and have fresh takes on the latest trends. I travel frequently for work and I am often stopped on the street (even in NYC) and asked where I found my clothes and accesories. If you have a special occasion or just want to freshen up your wardrobe, I encourage you to stop in! It wouldn't hurt to encourage your boyfriend or husband to drop by either...they always offer excellent gift ideas! Aimee read more

My wife and I stumbled upon this boutique when in Minneapolis. The window display caught our attention immediately. The store is quite nice, good selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff, upscale and worth it. We'll be back again sometime when in Minneapolis. read more

Really cute selection that they change out frequently! Their staff is always really helpful and friendly. Looking forward to checking out their Edina location! read more

If you want to look current but not contrived, head to Parc. Women size 12 and under will enjoy casual-chic pieces - and a few unique finds too - as well as trendy accessories that will bring you from day to night. Bonuses: Friendly staff, fair prices, locally made accessories, and lots of displays/items to look at and keep bored companions (cough cough, boyfriends, cough cough) entertained Bummers: Inconsistent quality/fit, especially tops and jewelry read more

I contacted the owner of this business before I left Seattle. I explained what I was looking for and asked if she would be able to help me find dresses for my bridesmaids. She assured me that she or her staff would be able to help us. Her staff was friendly, helpful and very patient. The owner was responsive when her staff called to ask questions. They followed up with an email to me within hours of leaving the store. I HIGHLY recommend this business. THANK YOU!! read more
