One of my favorite little consignment shops!…read more This is a higher end consignment shop for being in semi-rural Iowa. They recently (04/2025) moved from a location in Gilbert IA to Nevada IA. Not going to lie though... I liked the Gilbert space a bit better. Nothing wrong with the Nevada location; they are still working on getting settled so it may turn out just as nice in the long run, That being said... It's the the same great staff and same great selection. If you don't like dust this is the place for you. Always clean. Prices are reasonable and items range from smalls to beautiful handcrafted furniture. Definitely worth the trip to check this spot out if you are a treasure hunter!

MY HAPPY PLACE!! Every business owner should be like Talia. She's so friendly, inviting and excited…read moreabout every customer who comes into the store. It's so obvious that she loves and cares about her work. This store is adorable - always a solid offering of trendy and timeless clothing, quirky/fun gifts, plants, accessories, etc. Sort of like Target x10000 (you go in for one thing and walk out with 30). So much thought has been put into each product and detail of the store itself. I normally have to steer myself away from boutiques because I'm a poor young person and can't afford boutique pricing, but everything here is fair, affordable, and (yes it's true) high quality. I've been shopping here since it first opened and this place has always been quality/lovely! Whenever I'm back in Ames I have to swing in. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and visit :)

I only hope my review can help other college students be smart about their money and realize, as my friend did, that instead of supporting a small business that she thought she was, it still supports unethical fast fashion. I also know how hard my friend works for her money, which is why I was prompted to write this. Even if it is legal, I find it wrong to upscale and mislead college students.

The shop itself is beautifully decorated, but it was the "homey" feeling that made it so special. Kamie was so welcoming and warm. The boutique has an incredible selection in a quaint, comfortable space. High end, excellent quality apparel at fair prices. I, nearly exclusively, shop Lula Belle. Kamie makes my shopping experiences so personal. Even living 1400 miles away, she packages all my treasures with TLC. (And the clothing smells amazing! It's an extra special touch she makes.). She thinks of every detail! Kamie is not only an awesome small business owner, she is a huge community supporter. From youth activities to non profit fundraising to promoting other local businesses, her giving is beyond generous. I love being a Lula Girl!
