Update: I accept your response, but you lost out on a second sale and possibly even larger sale with what I would of spent if I wasn’t treated the way I was due to someone else was ready to make a larger purchase? Plus, I remember the 2 ladies there and they were each trying a few things from the front on-sale section of the shop. No one was spending money on a large purchase when I was in the shop. I was there and willing to spend money in your higher-end section but that time was cut off for me.
Good thing there are a lot of other great vintage shops when visiting LA. I searched for this shop because I’m a collector of vintage. This one is not worth the visit out of the purpose of the people working here. I’m not sure if it was a bad day or not for the lady working the store, but I have never experienced anyone asking me be removed from a section of the shop because there were, as quoted, “ too many people in the store”. There were 2 others shopping and the store isn’t large. I was in their “higher” end section browsing for a good find. I was surprised and also very annoyed. I also had my phone out like most people are and the lady said I can’t take photos. There were no photos being taken nor nothing worthy of photos to be taken because I wasn’t able to feel free to shop the store. It was...
Read moreLemon Frog Shop is an absolutely wonderful vintage store, and I highly recommend checking it out for any of my fellow vintage clothing lovers!! I've found so many incredible items there, and for excellent prices (especially by LA standards haha). The store's layout makes it extremely easy to shop efficiently- everything is organized by price range, item category (tops vs bottoms vs dresses vs accessories, etc), AND size, so it's very straightforward to find what you're looking for without having to dig through everything else! (but it's also still plenty easy to just browse/see what cool pieces you find if you don't have something more specific in mind). While the store itself and all the pieces there are fantastic, the biggest reason I wanted to write this review is the owner- you can tell how much passion has gone into this store just by interacting with her. She's very knowledgeable about her pieces, extremely helpful with any questions you might have or anything you might be looking for, and just super kind/friendly/a lovely person overall! She's truly made every one of my visits to Lemon Frog so far an above and beyond experience each time, and I'm definitely looking forward to going back...
Read moreWas here several weeks ago and bought a really wonderful dress. The selection was amazing, prices fair, and the shop clerk was friendly, but wondering why, after looking at their Instagram, I wasn’t asked to have a photo taken of myself with it for their account - I literally wore the dress out of the store because I was so excited about it! Really thought this was an inclusive space but I guess I wasn’t conventionally attractive enough for them or something. I think the worst part is that the sales clerk told me to check out their Instagram and tag myself in a photo of the dress after I bought it – I guess I wasn’t good enough for their personal account, but they want me to give them free advertising? I pride myself on being part of the vintage buying/selling community. No one has an easy time putting themselves out there, and I wouldn't want to assume that any shop especially in LA would be pretentious, but I guess...
