Boutique

I’ll admit I like clothes and fashion and shopping as much as any other girl. There’s this boutique in my neighborhood called De Novo. I wish it weren’t practically in my backyard because I spend way too much time in there. The clothes fit, the price is right, and everything is super cute. Before I was always the lone person shopping inside. Only one person on hand to bring my apparel to the fitting room, comment on the fit, help me make choices. Well, the word has gotten out. I went there just now and there were at least ten of us inside (excluding two husbands / boyfriends outside) vying for a fitting room. The two sales clerks looked rather stressed.

I hate to do this, but I honestly think they deserve the traffic. If you’re looking for classy blouses, pants, skirts, evening wear, jeans, jewelry, belts, or underwear…check out De Novo. Here’s a link to their write-up (including address and hours) in SF Station.
