Bon — Attraction in Tucson

I am offering my experience here in hopes that the owners/clerks will respond with concern, compassion, and humility.

I am a woman of color and I was watched closely and followed by one of the store clerks. I was perusing the shop, touching items, and placing them back in their place. As I made my way to the back of the store, the clerk started following and fixing the things I touched. I began to test my observation by picking up items (pencil cases, shirts, stuffed animals) and placing them back as I found them. Without fail, the clerk followed closely behind and re-fixed the items I had just touched. While this was happening, another white woman began walking behind us, feeling and picking up items. However, the clerk only readjusted the things I touched. I experienced a type of racial micro-aggression, whether intentional or unintentional.

I live far away from Bon, so discovered it online. I have made many purchases and Bon’s customer service is unmatched.

My favorite thing at Bon is the tightly curated beautiful clothes. Makers I might otherwise not have heard of (eg Pipsqueak Chapeau, Une Heures, Grisal). Dreamy fabrics and fresh, chic, often unexpected designs.

All packaged with care and delivered promptly. And I haven’t had to return items for ill fit because the descriptions are quite specific and the sizing info accurate.

I hope to visit in...
