Blue Skies On Broadway

Last weekend I stopped in this little boutique to see what they had to offer. The gal in the store kept saying how cute every thing was that I picked up and how great it would look on me. I thought at first that she was a shopping customer, then I quickly realized that she worked there. She started bringing me all kinds of items and suggesting that I try them on. I told her that I was just browsing, she followed me around the store and was very, very pushy. The whole time I was there it felt very uncomfortable. I asked how long the store had been there and that I been meaning to stop in. She told me that she was the «owner» Well, «Ms. Owner» I can tell you I will not be back, you made the whole experience in your store very uncomfortable. I suggest you «STAY AWAY!»

I cannot go in here without getting something, one of a kind, unique and beautiful. The owner Shannon Gonzalez, is engaging and has an incredible fashion sense. She will bring you things that match or coordinate with what you have picked, and is patient and kind if you do not want her choice.
She also has some great gently worn consignment pieces, name brands, purses, shoes, boots and such. She has nice gifts, local jewelry, and internationally made jewelry, as well as some new baby and kids items. It is a one stop shop that reminds me of a fashionable boutique in SF Marina, or Los ALtos.
Come out and check this store out, and don’t miss the Rosemary bags-(natural moth repellent for your closet, and good on chicken :) Proceeds go to ALS foundation

This place is great! The clothes are amazing. I was there last Thursday and I bought several things. Shannon, the owner, was so helpful by putting outfits together for me to try on.
Note to Shannon: Thanks for a fabulous experience, gf! I have worn the tan hoodie with the black circles and lines twice already and I have gotten SEVERAL compliments!

Love, Love, Love this boutique. This place is unique and Shannon the owner is So much fun. The clothes are fantastic and affordable. Shannon is always helpful and has such a great sense of style. I love this place and highly recommend it!

Blue Skies has become my favorite boutique to shop.
I also parked out front and could not resist going in. I am SO glad I did.
Shannon is AMAZING!!! She took one look at me and had me try on many many great looks that I never thought would look good on me.
I left with way more than I thought I would buy. I’m so happy I did because I get compliments on everything.

This store is the best place in Burlingame and I had no idea it existed!
I had the same experience that someone else posted. I just happened to park
in front of the store as I had some extra time and thought i’d go into the store across the street but I saw this cute little shop and had to go in! Shannon is amazing.
Very friendly, helpful and fun. The clothes are totally my taste — very trendy and wel done and not overpriced.
I walked away with more than I thought I would buy and not as much as i wanted.
I loved everything there!
Go there for your spring and summer shopping!

I happened upon this little place and I ended up spending over an hour there shopping. I got amazing deals, for instance a pair of designer jeans for about $ 40. She has some really cute things, and the prices are very reasonable considering the usual high priced boutiques in Burlingame.
The bad reviews here are entirely based on personal shopping preference and perhaps some up-​tightness on behalf of the reviewers, as Shannon is friendly, casual and willing to help. I felt like I had a personal shopper in a private store. You just have to be able to firmly say no thanks if you’re not interested.
I will definitely be returning when I feel like building up my wardrobe with a nice variety of things. I prefer stores like this to big department stores.
Support a nice little family place!

love this shop! fashionable fun comfortable clothes! and she has pretty awesome consignment in the back of the store. i come here once a week to see what new items she has! shannon, the owner is trendy, helpful and nice. great selection of womens and kids clothes

Always a great selection and fun items at great prices! You can always count on Shannon (owner) to help you put an outfit together or make you try on something that you never thought to pick out. She has very cool taste and is reflected in her store! Its a must to go by and check it out!

What a cute store with affordable, high quality clothing. The store carries kids and women’s clothing and a few accessories. I came in looking for a small gift for a little girl. There is a small area for the kids to sit and watch TV so moms can shop leisurely.
Shannon, the owner, was very attentive, helpful and not the in your face type salesman. Since I was looking at the sales rack, she directed me to the back of the store with other sales items. She even helped me find items in my size.
I purchased a small headband for a little girl. Shannon offered to wrap it. The pink and zebra print paper with a lollipop tucked inside made my little friend so happy.
There is something about good service. Here, you may not find mass market merchandise or haute goods, but you can pick up so cute affordable clothes for you and the kids.

Love, love, love this store! Met Shannon, the owner, at Starbucks and she gave me her card, I went in today to browse and all I can say is WOW! SUPER CUTE stuff at affordable prices. I wanted to buy so much, but I only walked away with a super cute and comfy organic cotton tee, but I will definitely be back to do some Spring Shopping.
Shannon is awesome and totally makes you feel at home!

The owner there, Shannon,
It a real delight, imagine a young woman not even 50 yet and owning a merchant store with all the high expenses to run a store like this too with young children.
I am impressed!
Plus she is always professional and not that pushy to buy anything from her, and it did take me a 3 months to actually buy anything from her. For I was mostly on the this street for my acuputist doctor is next door and you pass her store on the way to the branch post office and the public parking lot!
I have bought a beautiful necklace that was on sale and even matches one of my fancy tank tops and bought a beautiful black t-​shirt the other day!

I have been to this store forever ago, and thought it was overpriced for children’s clothes — but today I wandered in anyway. .. shopping does that too me.
I parked in the back & went to the post office — since I had paid the meter for 30 minutes I decided why not check it out. There were costumes hung outside so I thought maybe I could find something for my daughter.
The owner follows me in (she was outside on the phone) and tells me all items in the back are an addition 20% off the sale price. .. ugh, she had me at hello.
I wound up buying 3 costumes (2 for my classroom, 1 for my daughter) and PJs (that SHE pushed me into). I also bought a very overpriced necklace for myself — it was going toward a Foundation but I feel in love with it, and felt I needed it. .. and then she gave me 10% off it, so I wore it out (and all day).
My 4 stars is because she told me the costumes were new — but then told me she used to do Princess Parties. .. which means they are USED!!! And she hoovers. .. and pushes items on you. She tried to convince me to buy PJs that match my daughter, um no thanks.
I do love the accessory choices she has — so will be back. Plus, she offers FREE alterations on jeans (over 100) so when I can buy (and fit into) designer jeans, I’ll be back :)

Shannon, the store owner, has a great eye for style. Her boutique has clothes that are more than just pleasing to the eye. You will also find clothing that feels good on your skin and is comfortable. Her prices are reasonable and she is very friendly. Her store is a perfect addition to independent Burlingame. Support your local business owners, not the corporate chain stores on Burlingame Avenue.

First of all, I drive all over the Bay Area and a perk of the job is finding places I love whether its food or shopping…
I parked here to check out a vintage clothing store across the way. Blue Skies beckoned although I wasn’t positive it wasn’t a kids store. But what a treasure. There are lots of unique items for women, for kids and its really fun. I was in a hurry the first time I walked thru but there was enough to get me back in a hurry. I ended up splurging on a pair of fancy jeans ($ 104 is a lot for me) and a beautiful pair of earings originally $ 160 but discounted 30%.
I am dying to go back and the owner Shannon is lots of fun. She has a good eye and picked out great jeans for me to try…

Let me start off by saying I have never shopped in this store and never will. And here’s why:
As my friend and I were leaving the Broadway Grill yesterday after having a fantastic lunch we were approached by a gal with short curly hair (you know who you are) handing out $ 20 off coupons for this store. She pulled my friend aside and whispered something to her. Curious, as I am, I asked what she said. She just told my friend that she had the perfect body for jeans «long legs and big boobs». Now, there’s really nothing wrong with the comment in theory. However, when 2 women are walking along side each other and one is pulled away for a whisper, I find that rude, socially unacceptable, juvenile, and in poor taste. Have I missed anything?
My friend and I went our separate ways as we had separate cars. As soon as I got into my car I ripped up the coupon knowing I would never shop at this store. My friend called me shortly after I returned home, and ironically the first thing she said to me was «tear up that coupon». Apparently she was cajoled into the store and proceeded to try on jeans. As she was trying them on this ‘women’ swings open the dressing room curtain exposing friend in half dress telling her ‘they like to leave the curtains open’…PUH…LEASE!
To this woman: «you need to work on your people skills, your sales skills, and social skills or you will not be open very long»
Here is a copy of an email I received from «Shannon» at Blue Skies on Broadway”. Need I say more…
I didn’t mean to offend you. I sure wish you wouln’t have written this nasty review it wasn’t necessary. I wish you wouldv’e chosen to talk to me instead of sneaking behind my back. Your just a bitch who has some major self-​esteem issues and I hope you neva come to my shop.
Shannon: «I promise to «neva» come to your shop… neva! LOL!

I give this place two stars simply because they do have a good selection of jeans and clothing for women and children.
BUT — as another reviewer mentioned, the woman owner seems so incredibly desperate for business (kind of makes you feel bad for her) that she is very pushy and in your face. She kept hovering over my shoulder saying things like, «That’s great, isn’t it?! It’s organic! I’ll give you 10 percent off if you buy it!!» Wow, lady. Back off! Not how I like to do my shopping. I will absolutely not go there again.

This place bites.
The wife and I went here after seeing a couple cute/​funny baby onesies online… waste of time. They didn’t have any cute onesies at all.
The overpriced clothes and pushy, annoying sales woman tell me NEVER to go back here again.
It gets one star for being in a nice area… that’s about it.

I like Shannon she is really sweet and if you want to spend the time to have someone hand select a wardrobe for you, it would be worth going to Blue Sky. She is the kind who would tell you hey thats not your colour/​shape/​neckline etc. And if you are fashionably hopeless, and sometimes I feel like I am, it is nice to have that extra bit of attention. Also they have cute, darling children’s clothing and organic too. So after you have your clense from Que seraw it is worth indulging in some Blue Skies!

Nice selection of women’s fashion with a good mix of dresses, pants, tops, sportwear, etc. Some of the brands they carry are; Custo, 10 Feet, Puella, Tocca, just to name a few.
Shannon, the proprietoress, is attentive, welcoming and is great at putting outfits together. I’ve found some nice pieces here and received many compliments for one of the Tocca jackets purchased.
The back half of the store is dedicated to children’s wear and it appears they have a nice selection as well.
Blue Skies is local and Shannon very friendly. An establishment well worth supporting!
