I’ve been here a couple times and the boutique has a great selection of accessories(jewelry, bags and shoes). Got my first Hammitt bag and LOVEIT. The only reason I give 3 stars instead of 5 is because the staff was incredibly unhelpful. So different from the first time I had visited a few weeks earlier. I asked her about a specific piece and she was quite aloof. It made us feel as though we were an impediment to her glorious afternoon. We were the only ones in the store and she was just sitting hunched over at the register. Trust me, I’m a fairly low-maintenance customer so it takes a bit to frustrate me and this did. Especially considering the staff was friendly before. Regardless of her poor attitude, we purchased a clutch and went on our way. I must say, we went with a purchase in mind but she nearly ruined my appetite for the purchase. I’ll shop here again, as I’m a local but hopefully the staff will have a more consistent demeanor that should match the beautiful boutique and items in it.

I live in mb and have been shopping at Cami since she opened. I’m not a frequent shopper so when I do I’m usually in desperate need ! Cami has alwAys pulled through for me ! She always suggests things that suit my taste. All my pieces have lasted in style and quality. I stopped in yesterday and had 5 minutes to shop and she found me 3 great pieces that didn’t break the bank! In these days of the 200 $ sweatshirt she maintains to provide locally made items at great prices$$ if you haven’t been in stop by soon

I love the fact that this shop strives to carry a high percentage of locally crafted pieces that represent local designers. In addition, it is apparent that the buyer(s) focus on quality products. Some lines I found here are Linea Pelle handbags and belts, Chan Luu jewelry, and Whitley Designs jewelry amongst so many other brands. This is a great place to discover more and more local jewelry artists. This is where I first discovered WhitleyJewelry for example and love their work. The staff is always really friendly. I found a pair of DL1961 cut off shorts that I was looking for(between Santa Barbara and the South Bay for a while) and finally found them in this store. Great selection, clean, non cluttered, and great staff!

Great store with unique and beautiful finds. There were so many items that caught my eye but I ultimately purchased a pair of beautiful earrings. I also fell in love with the gorgeous purses made by Hammit, who I was told is a local Manhattan Beach designer. Can’t wait to be back!

Walked into this store while on a stroll in Manhattan Beach and I’m so happy I did. I found the cutest baby TOMS for my daughter here. I really liked many of the other items they had. Although a lot of the items were on the higher end of my price range the shop itself did not feel uppity or stuffy.

Great staff, super helpful! They recently added Tory Burch and the buyer should be given a gold star! Great stuff!

It is rare in a beach town to walk into a shop and not be inundated by shell necklaces, beach cover-ups and the ever popular«My parents went to Manhattan Beach and all I got was this Lousy Tee-Shirt.» Cami is amazing. I’m a former New Yorker who worked in the fashion industry. I was always on the hunt for small boutiques that understood the trends but took things a step further to showcase young, up-and-coming and incredibly talented designers — clothing, denim, bags, jewelry… who make the industry cool, sexy and fun. Cami does just this. The prices are not for the faint-of-heart but the items are luxurious, lovely and unique. I walked in to the store for the first time with a bag from a rather obscure designer. Not only did the store owner comment on it, she pointed across the store to several other bags from the same designer in her store. Cami also carries one of my favorite jewelry designers of all time — any place that showcases Alexis Bittar is a friend of mine. This is the place to buy yourself or someone you care about something special — a gorgeous piece of jewelery, a great new bag for the season, that staple cashmere wrap. Cami is a jewel… and full of little gems.

I came across this little gem of a store about a week or so ago. To be honest, Manhattan Beach is not an area I frequent(too many white people), but there’s this great shop with these fabulous, inexpensive, hand-knit blankets that make great gifts. But I digress… My husband and I stumbled upon Cami — both the store and the owner who share the same name. What makes this store is the owner. That’s not to say the merchandise isn’t great — it is. But Cami’s easy-going nature coupled with her wonderful sense of style and ability to hone in on what the client needs made for an amazing shopping experience. It was kind of like having a personal stylist. Cami is honest and not a ‘sales’ person — she is simply passionate about what she does. Which for me, is everything. I walked away with jeans, tops, sweaters, a pair boots and jewelry — and I swear to you I’m not much of a shopper. All of the things I purchased are unique, comfortable and easy to wear AND I have received compliments on every single item I took home(which is never a bad thing). Since my first visit I’ve gone back again — this time on my husband’s suggestion. I highly recommend this sweet shop. In this time of limited discretionary funds, it feels really good to support a local, woman-owned business that has beautiful things designed to make you smile every time you wear them. Tell Cami that Kelly sent you!

This store is way cute. Happened upon it when I was walking along Highlander after lunch. The girl there was really nice and because it’s the sidewalk sale weekend in Manhattan Beach, some pieces were on sale. Kind of on the pricey side, but I like that they only have a few of each design, and everything was pretty unique. They have accessories, purses, jeans, tops, dresses… all pretty cute stuff that’s more dressy casual.
