After going to about 12 people trying to explain what blonde was, I was referred to Barberia. Jackie is absolutely the best colorist. And Terry makes sure all employees are educated on everything new. Also the best in hair cuts & styles!!! I will never go to anyone else.
Pros: Stay up-to-date on all things hair. Jackie is the best!!!
Cons: NONE!

Nursing two children reduced my breasts from a B cup to a AA, and I had the hardest time finding bras (especially pretty ones!). I stumbled upon lulalu.com and the store Lula Lu in San Mateo, and the business quickly became my favorite place for bras and lingerie. The store caters to small-busted women (AA to B cup) and they have a great selection of adorable, comfortable bras. Thank you, Lula Lu!

I stumbled upon Lulu boutique recently in San Mateo. The owner is passionate and she has brought some more upscale lines to the store. The selections she has made so far are really fabulous. She has a unique collection of vintage jewelry as well some fun vintage dresses and jackets as well. The staff is very helpful and knowledgable. I just purchased this amazing cream knit pullover. A++ I will definately check out Lulu whenever I pop into downtown San Mateo.
Pros: service, ambience

Bebe is one of my favorite stores. Their clothes are definitely not cheap because you're paying for the design and the brand, but Bebe is the one store that I think it's actually worth it. At least for occasional splurges. :) As you can tell from their website, Bebe is at the forefront of women's styles and fashion. They're most famous for their tank tops, but they also have great range of pants, dresses, skirts, leather, and tops, and everything they sell is fun, fashionable, and distinctly feminine. They have great fabrics

I have been a customer at the Cobbler for more than 12 years. I have taken everything from my bridal Vera Wang shoes for dyeing to my Tahari suits for cleaning and alterations. I am always welcomed by inviting smiles and great customer service. Two weeks ago I was in a jam and needed to have a few pairs of slacks altered for a last minute business trip. I showed up right before they closed. Rather than asking me to come back in a few days for pick-up, they stayed an extra hour and got the job done. You don't see that too much these days. They did a great job on my pants and have earned my repeat business. I give these guys a big thumbs up.
Pros: Quality of work, good customer service and they're reliable.
Cons: can't think of any

I think T J Maxx is owned by Marshalls. I get presents from there all the time and sometimes return them for credit. Then I buy kids clothes there - which is usually brand name and for about 1/3 to 1/2 of retail prices. I also buy clothes for myself and my husband - I get great quality items for $10 or $20 - and people think I spent a fortune. I don't shop at Sacs but I look like I do.

Ann Taylor is the place to go if you want to look professional and classic. I was able to find great clothes here when I was a size 14 and I am now able to find great clothes here as a size 8! Their hosiery is also great - feels nice and doesn't run easily. The prices are pretty reasonable for what you get and I have always been pleased by their clearance rack. I am currently a SAHM and don't have much occasion to dress up (playgroup is casual), but I was thrilled to shop there at Christmas and find it just as great as the last time.

I liked this shop.. I was looking for dance shoes because I needed them for my dance practice. So I was looking online and I found this store..so one day I went and I found the shoes I needed, the prices arent too bad. The clothes are a little expensive,though.I saw these cute sweatpants and it said Dancer on the side of the leg, It cost about $25.But I didnt buy them,and then a keychain was $6! I thought it was going to be like 3 dollars the most...
Then the workers there could've have been more friendly. But they did ask me if I needed help like twice. . Overall I would go to this store again.

When my oldest was a baby I used to shop here so much my friend joked that she would just meet me there when we went to the mall. I don't shop there as much, but I still love the clothes. If you shop just for their sale items you can get some good deals. The boy clothes are more interesting than Baby Gap, but not quite as interesting as their girl clothes. They also have a little area where your kid can watch a video while you shop.
