Parc Shop — Local services in Minneapolis

Be careful when shopping here with a discount code! The shop has a strict "no refund" policy when they are running a promotion and it left me stuck with a hefty store credit that I will have difficulty using (if I can even get over my bitter feelings and go in to the store to use it).

My husband thought he was doing a nice thing and snagged a beautiful coat during a storewide Cyber Monday sale. While weighing his options between Big Retailer and Local Sweetheart, he opted to shop local and give the business to a shop he knows I like supporting. Being a dude who assumes every retailer's policy is the same (and reasonable), he didn't think to check return policies before completing the transaction. Unfortunately, the coat was way too big and now my "Christmas gift" is a store credit, rather than my husband being able to take a refund and buy me a coat that fits.

Parc boutique is hands down the cutest, most-Instagram-worthy, women-run shop in the twin cities. They clothing and shoes they have in stock are trendy but won't go out of style, and are constantly updated. All of the brands they carry are women owned businesses and either local or from around the country. The staff is beyond friendly is they're always happy to help with any questions you may have. As well as clothing, they also carry the cutest natural skin care lines, especially Herbivore Botanicals. If you're in Minneapolis and have a shopping day, I highly recommend you stop in...

Every clothing item or accessory I’ve bought from here quickly becomes my favourite thing; I reach for it often and always feel good wearing it. Lovely independent brands, always a good array of sizes and colours, and online ordering is fast and easy. The staff are very helpful too and I like to see how they style the pieces themselves. Walking into this bright shop is always a refreshing experience - happy to support this small business and highly...
