Holly Sharp Signature Boutique

Really like holly sharpe designs, in general. But the actual store experience is a little uncomfortable and awkward. It’s not uncommon to hear the staff talking shit about one another, chattering at the front desk instead of offering fashion insight or help to their less fashion savvy customers, like myself. Like, I don’t want to feel like you may be talking crap about me as I shop.
Also, Have put a few items on hold here before only to have them put back before the «come pick them up!» Grace period is up, so you have to stay on them, as you will get a different story each time you call.
Holly sharpe herself is dedicated to her trade and actually altered a piece of clothing for me personally, which ended up fitting perfectly for the event, ensuing many compliments. Her store could probably benefit from having more hires aligned with her vision, though.

This place is great! They have the cutest things inside! You can always find something cute to buy and feel great in it! They have candles, accessories, shoes, tons of cute stuff they also have great owners who have so much passion for their store! And of course the greatest sales ever! $ 15 dresses, $ 10 tops, $ 5 accessories I never miss a sale :)

We had a great experience at this store, staff were so nice and helpful, the clothes were great price and quality, I will def come and shop here again!

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! I went to this store today hoping to find a cute cocktail dress and the two girls did not acknowledge me at all!!! I was the only customer in the store, ridiculous… I noticed one of them was looking at me weird which made me feel super uncomfortable!!! I couldn’t stand being there for more than 5 min!!! Would never come to This place again, I don’t care how cute the clothes might be. You will lose lots of business with that kind of Terrible attitude! Owner needs to hire new people, seriously

My mom had been really excited to check this place out, but the service was a big let down. We went in on the afternoon of December 16^th.
You can have the cutest clothes, and great prices, but if your employees have attitudes people will walk out without buying anything. We did.
I gave a star above the minimum because of the décor. Super pretty feather painting about a cute teal couch, the waiting area in front of the fitting room was absolutely adorable. I wish the owner put as much effort into choosing their staff as they did the interior design of the store.

Oh how I wanted to love this shop.
We have lived within walking distance and my daughter is their target customer. Would have loved it if it could have been a go-​to store for us.
My daughter bought a nice, simple dress from the shop. The first time she wore it we had a domestic disaster and bleach ended ruining the dress. She was so gracious about it that I wanted to surprise her by replacing it. I drove (we are now 18 miles away) to the store and explained what I wanted to do. Two young women helped me find the dress in their order catalogs. They called their warehouse to confirm that the dress was in stock. We filled out a special order and I offered to pay right then. They insisted that I pay on pickup and told me they would call me in about four days to come get it. Almost three weeks went by, no call. I was in the area so I called to tell them I was coming by. No one knew anything about my visit or the order. I stopped in personally. I was amused (not really) to be called «Sweetheart» and «Dear» a few times while the two sales women fumbled around trying to locate the order. They told me there was no record and that they had no idea what I was trying to find. It turns out that no one ever faxed the order to the warehouse at the close of business the day I ordered it. In the meantime it is out of stock. Their answer? «Oh sorry about that, sweetie.» Seriously? Needless to say, daughter, her friends and I will not be back. One shop to skip on the Christmas Walk. I wouldn’t be this harsh if it were not for the flippant attitude of the two women on my second visit. When its all said and done at the end of the day what keeps bricks and mortar retail in business is customer service.

This places amazes me… the customer service receives no stars if possible! My husband and I walked in this evening and out of what looked like 4 employees we were greeted by none. I walked in first and saw a girl walking to the register, she had a horrible look and looked at me like I just ruined her day. So I assume she was just a customer however then saw her behind the register. I continued to look around and notice my husband not getting any type of acknowledgment from the girls either. I decided that with this type of customer service I don’t want to spend my money. We proceed to walk out and saw 3 girls behind the register all too busy to say bye, thanks or whatever and went on to chit chat about their personal life. All rude, lack of customer service, poor training and mgmt. don’t waste your time and money because they seem to not want yours.

Staff has no manners. While helping me salesgirl dropped me to go off and help someone else. RUDE! Lost business due to poor customer service.

Holly Sharp is great!
I love this little CDM boutique. They do a great job of making the most of their giant windows and outdoor racks with lots of eye-​catching displays intended to draw people in from the street.
I feel like you’re going to either like the style or you don’t. It’s a very maxi dress, beach casual meets boutique put together type of style. A great place to go if you’re looking for a cute sundress, colorful shorts, strappy sandals, fun bright summer jewelry, etc. Great if you love colors and kind of fit that bohemian meets boutique style.
I come here when I’m looking for some colorful and fun pieces to add to my wardrobe. I’m a bit more urban and funky than most of the clothes in here but they still have great pieces that I can incorporate into my style.
I recently bought a pair of bright orange dress shorts that pair awesomely with a gray blazer and chunky jewelry. My sister is also a huge fan of their long skirts — she has like 10 of them I think haha and pairs them with all kinds of tank tops and beanies.
Can be a bit expensive but they always have great sales going on. I would say if they catch your eye from PCH, it’s definitely worth taking a stop inside!

The store front really brings you in. First eye catching thing going north into Corona Del Mar! They get new items very often and I loved the selection of jeans they have. The hangers are so cute and the candles they carry are to die for.
Definitely one of my favorites in Corona Del Mar.

I like this store and the window dressing will bring you in. They have casual wear and lots of dresses. It is always the dresses for me and I have found some great ones too. Found a light weight jacket with a snake skin print for $ 40.00! The prices can be a bit pricy and it is hit and miss but for something unique it is a go to. The girls are always sweet and helpful. Worth a visit.

Shop w/​Amber she is truly fab!

First time in today, and even though it was packed because they were having a sidewalk sale, everyone that worked here (as well as everyone else shopping here) was SO NICE.
I’ll admit it, I’m usually a wee bit intimidated by the little boutiquey clothing stores along PCH — I always figure they are out of my price range and everything will be a size zero, and I’ll end up leaving feeling like a broke, frumpy, chunky, nerd. But no! I found so much cute stuff today and wish I had had more time to shop. Totally will go back.

Love love love everything here. From the décor to the style to the pricing — this boutique does it right. Perfect place to go if you’re looking for a cute date outfit, bridal shower dress, beach cover up, and new shoes. So excited for the sale July 9^th!

Well positioned on PCH you would gather that this boutique would offer better service. I was gravely disappointed after visiting this boutique for the first time upon recommendation of a friend. There appeared to be 3 women associates attending to the floor and ALL to one single guest. This guest appeared to be trying on many higher priced items so the sales associates were flooding her with compliments at every item she tried on and searching for other items for her. I was led to an available dressing room with the 2 dresses I had chosen to try on and not assisted at all after this, no one came to the room, asked if I needed anything, nothing. I left the room twice to ask for the dresses in other sizes and colors, the associate seemed reluctant to find them for me, as if she was inconvenienced (because she was seated on a sofa reading magazines) but proceeded without any pleasantries. After, she hurried back to the one guest that ALL 3 of them were attending to. I decided to see what would happen if I scoured the sales floor a bit and brought a more expensive item to the dressing room to try on. I chose an ornate $ 150 halter top and brought it to the room. I immediately garnered attention when I exited the room to see it in the full length mirror on the sales floor. The associates all told me how great it looked on me, how sexy it was, and began wanting to bring me other items. Shame on you Holly Shop Boutique! Coming from management in the guest service and retail industry you behaved badly, judging your customers by the size of their wallets. I bought one dress in Holly Sharp this day & I will never shop with you again nor recommend anyone to shop at this boutique. As my day progressed I ended up spending about $ 880 at your rival boutiques up and down PCH… perhaps next time, as you are learning about «hospitality» in the future you will remember this review.

Meh…
I’ve stopped in a few times looking for something, but never leave with anything in my hands… The quality doesn’t seem as great as other boutiques in the area, but you can find really inexpensive things here…
I much prefer Westerly or Harper’s in the neighborhood…

The store is super cute, as is the selection. Shorts, dresses, tanks, jewelry, ktischy cards, candles, bags, etc. they’ve got everything a fashionable girl could ask for. I wouldn’t say I had a pretty woman moment, but the girls behind the counter weren’t exactly warm or welcoming. Possibly the fact that we walked in 10 minutes before they closed created an instant chip on their shoulders but they went from «are you ladies doing ok?» to «we close in 5 minutes» in a matter of a split second. Clearly they don’t work off commission or their tone might have been a little more upbeat and helpful.

I was also impressed by the storefront display. I keep meaning to come in, and finally had an excuse — I needed a dress for my boyfriend’s step-sister’s wedding (say that three times fast…). It was right when they opened, 10:00 a.m. sharp (a pun! get it??), but that didn’t stop both of the salesgirls from being super friendly. They let me browse for a few minutes then came to see if I needed help. I told them what I was looking for and they picked out a couple of items for me to try (just like the girl said in a previous review about personal shoppers) — so nice! I found a lovely Holly Sharp brand dress in a champagne color that will go great with anything. My boyfriend asked me to go back and get it in every color :)
The store itself is way fun. The dresses range from Lucy Love to Betsey Johnson, so there’s something for everyone’s price range. They also have cute tops and bottoms, jewelry and assorted housewares like candles and other chintzy stuff.
I will definitely be coming back!

This store is fantastic. The store window definitely draws you in, and inside you find great finds. Not only do they have cute clothes, but great smelling candles, good little things for gifts, and an assortment of jewelry! Like every store there are some things you look at and and think um what? But a majority is just so cute!
The girls who work there are very helpful and will do anything you need them to do. They are very lenient when it comes to returns, although you only get store credit or exchange. With Lucy Love they can normally order it in your size if they are out of it in the store. They have outfits for any sort of occasion!
As for the previous comment left. I’ve been in this store many times lately and have heard quite the opposite from the ladies working. I heard compliments from their mouths or nothing about it at all. I was unable to find a dress for prom, but they have nice dresses for other events. LOVE this store.

The selection seems soooo damn amazing from the storefront…
But then you get inside and realize it’s an odd juxtaposition of expensive brands like Betsey Johnson alongside cheapish quality clothes like Lucy Love. It’s confusing too. Because the pricier bits aren’t really separated from the cheap crap.
If you’re looking for a cute cocktail dress, I suggest you stop by here. The women working here are sure to help you find something. Or they will actually admit that they simply can’t help. *gasp* Yes, quite a first. They won’t try to sell you on something that will undoubtedly give you buyer’s remorse the next day.
This is a great thing because the return policy isn’t that convenient. It’s a shortshort time frame. And even then, you can only exchange or get store credit. No cash or credit back.
I was very impressed by how friendly the ladies are in here. They are totally willing to scour the whole floor of the store to find something you might feel gorgeous in…
Unfortunately, they do have a tendency to gossip about their customers after they leave. And loud enough for those remaining in the store to hear… I think it totally unprofessional when I hear employees talk trash about someone’s outfit or hair after they leave. That’s just immature. And that’s the biggest reason for the 3 stars, instead of 4.
