The Unicorn Store is down an alley way (I guess you can say behind Sephora). I have always wanted…read moreto visit this store because it just peaked my interest but have only visited Old Town Pasadena at night, after they were closed. But this past Sunday, my husband, our little girl dog and I finally got a chance to visit since we were visiting Old Town Pasadena during the afternoon. When we walked in, we were greeted by an employee behind the register at the back of the store. This store is very cute and really would be a little girl's dream because of all the unicorns, pink, glitter and sparkle. I ended up purchasing a mermaid coloring book for my nieces to add to their Christmas gifts that I have for them, but not sure if they are even into mermaids (and my husband doesn't seem to know either if they are or if they are into unicorns. These little girls change their interests so often it is hard to keep up). But I'd love to take them to this store and see if they would want anything (and knowing me, I would most likely let them each pick out one item and I would purchase it for them). Overall, I really enjoyed my shopping visit and would come back for gifts in the future (maybe could also find a fun white elephant gift or a secret santa gift in here too).

A Slice of Shopping Heaven in San Marino…read more Serafina is less of a boutique and more of a retail paradise where the fashion angels sing and the decor whispers, "Go on, treat yourself." Nestled in the heart of San Marino, just a stone's throw from Pasadena, it's the kind of place that makes you feel like royalty--no tiara required. Upon entering, it's clear this is no ordinary clothing emporium. The mix of designers is so carefully curated, I half expected to find a gallery label next to the Nili Lotan display. And with threads by Sea NY and Helmut Lang hanging around, you're not just shopping; you're adding to your art collection. The handbags? They've got more personality than a reality TV star. Shoes that make Cinderella's glass slipper look like a flip-flop. Fine jewelry that has you sparkling brighter than the twinkle in your eye. And let's not forget the gift items--because who doesn't love presents? But wait, there's more! A children's boutique so adorable, even your little ones will want to extend playtime to dress-up time. With names like Splendid and Ella Moss, your kids are walking out of there runway-ready for the sandbox catwalk. Sipping on Pellegrino while the staff, who are more like your personal fashion consultants, cater to your every need? Check. Enjoying a cappuccino as you peruse luxury labels? Double check. Feeling as comfortable as if you were lounging in your own living room? Well, if your living room was a casually chic sanctuary of style, then yes--triple check! If Serafina were a song, it'd be a symphony of style, luxury, and comfort. So next time you're in San Marino and need a dose of retail therapy, float on into Serafina and float out like the fashion deity you truly are.

I recently moved to the area from Brentwood and was excited…read moreto see a cute shop with a nicely curated selection of some of my favorite brands like Xirena and Saloni, they also have a nice selection of home items like candles and hostess gifts. I hate giving 2 stars, but in this instance my two stars go for the low level of customer service. No one greets you when you walk in (I've been a few times), no one asks to hold your items at the counter when they see you holding an armful of items, when I ask for a size they say that's all they have and can't be bothered to say they can order it for you or provide alternatives. This store seems to cater to the white and 60+ set (that's all there was at the store both times I've visited) and if you don't fit that demographic, they don't care you'll be dropping $5-600. I wanted to support a local business but I rather make the drive back to the country mart than give my money to a shop that does not value all of their shoppers. Perhaps I expect too much out of my shopping experience, but now more than ever (pandemic) I want my limited entries to shops to be memorable. I don't want to think "oh, I had a shitty time when I bought this $400 dress".

(Once Amazon saved the day and delivered it to her door while my nephew was opening his presents.) I honestly have no clue where to buy toys for kids. Target is always a hassle, so I was thrilled when I stumbled upon Shop Merci Milo while walking around my neighborhood. This charming store is located inside a converted garage. It's adorable and resembles the ideal playroom. The owner did a great job of creating a welcome environment for children. The shop is organized and you'll find toys from around the world, books, clothing, shoes, accessories, and unique gifts. They even have educational toys, which I prefer to give. I'm so glad I discovered this place. Now I don't have to stress out when I need a present at the last minute. *Online ordering also available shopmercimilo.com *Residential street parking.

At the time that I was there, they were having a clearance sale. I ended up walking out with a pair of pants which I'm excited to wear. I've purchased some jeans online as I wasn't sure at the time what I wanted. Great thing about that, is if you do find some jeans online and the price is cheaper online vs in store, they will price match.

I had a few items to return from an online order, and was happy to find a nearby location. This store had taken over the old Cotton On space. I stopped by on Cesar Chavez Holiday, Monday, March 31st, around 12:20 PM, and since it was a weekday, there weren't many people in the store. Although the store is only one level (I had to ask them when I was checking out if there was a second level since I noticed the stairs lol), the store looked like it was fully and neatly stocked. When it came to my returns, the process was quick and easy. The girl who helped me was actually nice and personable, unlike some workers at other A&F locations (iykyk). All in all, great location. Next time I want to shop at A&F, I'll be back!
