Cute dress from Prim!
Carolina A.

This is HANDS DOWN my favorite store. I can honestly say I have stopped shopping at Nordstrom for many reasons, among them selection, customer service, and the owner. 1. The Owner: Missy is AMAZING. She remembered me after one time of visiting the store, and even remembered details about my life. Shopping at Prim isn't like going into a store - you aren't "sold" anything. I feel like I'm hanging out with a girlfriend there. She's HONEST. Today she told me that even though what I was wearing was cute, I didn't need it and should wait to spend my money because more cute stuff is coming in. She welcomes my three year old son (and ANY child) into the store - she even has crayons and color books waiting in the fitting area. All moms can appreciate this!! 2. Customer Service: This is a continuation of my previous comment about Missy, because she exemplifies what customer service should be. Going into Prim isn't a transaction, is an experience. It's hanging out, its talking if you want to talk, planning for an upcoming event, laughing, joking - and in the mean time, you end up finding some really cute clothes. Nordstrom may have good customer service, but you know they're on commission and trying to sell you. At Prim, I don't know if they are on commission or not, which is great, because I never feel pressured. Ever. All the girls are great at selecting, are incredibly attentive and gracious and patient no matter how many customers they're attending to. And their return policy is AWESOME, especially for a small boutique (not sure what "Danielle W" was talking about, their return policy is clearly stated at the register and on the receipt). I had a pair of pants that I bought over a month ago that just fit funny, so I facebooked Prim and they told me to just bring the pants in when I had the chance! They kept my store credit and as soon as I found something I wanted, they gave me the full amount I paid for the pants even though they had since gone on sale. No other boutique will accommodate you like that! Their rewards system is great, too - I love that they keep track of my points/purchases so I don't have to keep some punch card in my wallet - I always lose punch cards or small gift cards! I went in today and was able to buy a dress, a skirt, shorts, and a scarf for $18 with my rewards from the previous month! Thanks Prim!! 3. Selection: Move aside BP. This store is FILLED with the cutest clothes. Everything is fashionable, but the selection is so that there is something for every style, age, shape, etc. And you cannot beat the prices - a maxi skirt for $28 that is Nordstrom quality? Yes please, I'll take one in every color! The only time there isn't a lot of clothes is when there's an event and everyone buys EVERYTHING. This store is going to grow so fast with the customer loyalty the team is building, and the clothes just sells itself. Missy is great about immediately restocking, too, and if you like them on facebook you can see what shipments they get! LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! I can't take my business anywhere else after shopping at Prim now that Missy has taken over the store. I almost didn't leave this review for fear of more people finding out about my little fashion secret...but the store deserves an honest review. Plus I can't keep this gem to only myself, it isn't fair to the rest of the women out there! Happy Shopping! :)

Omg... This store knocks it out of the ballpark. Every time I bring something home from here to my wife ... I become a hero!! Thank you for your great suggestions Emily and Elizabeth! I truly appreciate your superb service!!!

Girls shopping day at Prim!

LOVE the clothes here. The fabrics are SUPER comfortable, and designs are ALWAYS the latest in fashion. Great place to find an outfit for any occasion!!

While on tour of DT Pleasanton w Amy J who pointed out the cutest shops and boutiques on Main St we of course had to stop into Prim. The aesthetic and merchandise are easy on the eyes, it's cute with a rustic nod, up cycled pallets, frames and dressing room lights woven into the decor. Prim is a women's apparel boutique that carries more on trend than staples, though not to say you couldn't find an LBD there! In the fitting room area there are also a couple sale racks with great finds like pants/skirts from $15-$20. I found a really cute skirt there but unfortunately this holiday season I must have had 1 too many pieces of pie so I will be back once I get my waistline a bit more under control. Oh and the staff there is very friendly, I had left my flowers on the floor of the dressing room ( from the farmers market ) and when I remembered less than a minute from walking out the door they had already picked them up and put my flowers behind the counter. I definitely will have to come back when I have a little more time!

This cute bracelet was begging to come home with me.  I'm very happy with this purchase!

On our promenade, we stopped in here. I have seen their shop in Walnut Creek...and really liked…read moreit. The staff was so friendly, keeping the little ones occupied with a sucker was much appreciated. This location had several things I picked up, but I did not fall in love. Think Eileen Fisher meets European style. Prices are mid/high...but I have always been willing to pay for something I will wear over-and-over. My forever friend was not there today, but I will check back in the future.

I'm surprised no one has reviewed this location of LanVie yet! I wandered in yesterday while my…read morepartner in crime was at the comic book store. The rack of 50% off caught my eye, yet I was on guard for disappointment - a lot of the shops in downtown Pleasanton seem overpriced to me. But I've been reading "Overdressed: the Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion" so I'm on the lookout for quality clothes that are sustainably priced. The clothes here are REALLY cute; they have a very Euro aesthetic and a casual/weekend feel. Lots of crinkling, ruching, buttons, patchwork appliques. A little like Oilily but at reasonable prices for what felt and looked like good quality. I was not able to make a purchase that day, but the saleswoman, Reina, was VERY sweet. Note: they are having some kind of trunk show/ladies' night on Sunday 7/29/12. 30% off the whole store, I believe! This shop seems like a good addition to the boutiques downtown.

Bottom line: you have to get in here! If you're on the hunt for something specific, or just feel…read morelike browsing in a peaceful and relaxed environment. You can and will find everything from Simple, Extravagant, Cute, Elegant, Classy, Fun. and Sassy. I just had such a wonderful time shopping here. I was greeted warmly, helped as needed, and the employees are 5 star worthy. Smiles, and suggestions, not stuffy or fake. Genuine, helpful, assistance. Thank You! It smells wonderful (because of the candles that they sell) and there were so many unique and tempting clothing/jewelry/cosmetic, fragrance oils, cards, and handbag options that I honestly didn't know which way to turn. I was quite pleased to discover after doing a few laps in the main room, that was yet another huge room to shop in. My photos don't even do this place justice. The jewelry display are handmade statement pieces, that can make such a thoughtful personal gift for someone special. Some are dainty, some are conversation pieces! I absolutely appreciate that there is a wide variety in the price ranges (because I had a teenager with me who is quite spendy for a human who's basically unemployed aside from the occasional babysitting job.) Some items are less than 20.00, and they also offer gift cards. Summary: I would describe this as a shopping experience. They have jeans, tops, bralettes. boots, sandals, plenty of fitting rooms, casual dresses, jewelry, sunglasses, and a small selection of home decor. You can find an outfit for a night out, or a flowy dress for your holiday on the beach. Need a quick gift, you'll find it here, and they'll help you find it. All of our purchases were thoughtfully wrapped in pretty tissue paper, and sealed with a sweet sticker. I look forward to returning soon. Another huge plus: this store offers fundraising events for local schools, so very generous and just another reason why I'm in love with this boutique.

Don't look like everyone in town. Great selection of price friendly, cute and current fashion. Fun…read moreplace to shop, and my husband always wins when he gives me one of their gift certificates.
