Heavenly Couture

Heavenly Couture is one of my favorite boutiques. The prices are great, the styles of clothing are trendy and the location is perfect (10 minutes away from my house!).
But I would have to say that parking here is a beeezitch. Parking anywhere on 2^nd street is horrible, actually.
Mostly everything in their store has a set price of $ 17 excluding sales and accessories. Their prices do tend to fluctuate though. I remember when their «set prices» were $ 16. Still not too bad though.

Cute clothes but it’s a hit or miss. Everything is under $ 17 but most the stuff is $ 17. The sales rack is great and always going on but on get one ½ off .
Found myself a cute black maxi skirt! Finally

I come here to purchase the jeggings a few times a year. The sizes never match up, sometimes the legs aren’t the same length. Haha so you HAVE to try on every pair. But they always have them and I always find a few pairs that fit.
They have a lot of colors to choose from and they last for a good 5 months. At 16 bucks a pair I don’t even bother going anywhere else.
This place has cheap clothing, and none of it’s good quality. You get what you pay for.

I’ve shopped in this store many of times and never got the run around as much as I got today.
I purchased 2 items first thing this morning. As a matter of fact, I was their first customer of the day. At the end of the transaction, the sales associate informed me I had 30 days to do an exchange.
I brought it home for my daughter only to discover she was a small not a medium. I returned around 3:30 to do an exchange and purchase two more items. The sales associate did my exchange then tried to ring me up for my other purchases. She ran my card twice only to inform me my debit card came up «duplicate account». I quickly walked to Chase to make sure my account wasn’t compromised. Phew! It wasn’t. I noticed the sales associate didn’t give me back my original receipt so I went back. She said my receipt becomes null and void once an exchange is done even though I only exchanged one item instead of both. I told her I didn’t exchange the second item purchased though and I wanted my receipt just in case I needed to. She gave me the run around and pretended not to find it in the system. I told her I was the very first transaction of the day. It seemed as though she was stalling. I finally got a copy of my receipt. No where does it state on the receipt that ALL items purchased on the receipt become null and void once ONE item gets returned.

I don’t go to 2^nd street as often, but when I do I ALWAYS have to make a stop at Heavenly Couture. It’s so Heavenly! Lol.
The manager and staff are all nice and welcoming. They’re also very quick to get a fitting room started for you. Very impressive.
The style of clothes they have range from date night, girls night out, beach wedding wear, summer dresses, casual work attire, etc. Most of their sizes run from XS-​L but some styles have XL’s. They also have a wall and table full of cute accessories.
The best thing about this place is that everything is $ 16.99 and under. The worst thing is that everything is so cute and you wanna just buy the whole store.
Definitely check this boutique out! They also have other locations in LA/​Beverly area in Larchmont Village and in Seal Beach!

I always find cute clothes here but they are starting to raise the prices every year ! A while ago it was $ 15 and then it was $ 16 and now it’s $ 16.99? They should just stick to one price.

I don’t go to 2^nd St too often but when I do I always stop by and check out Heavenly Couture. I usually find at least 1 piece that I like. In my recent visit, I literally bought the store. There were so much cute stuff! And you can’t beat the price, $ 16 on everything!
I would suggest to try on the clothes as the sizes run differently depending on the material and style.
Also, double check the clothes for defects! I tried on 10 items and 2 if them had holes on them from previous people. If it doesn’t fit, don’t force it people!
The ladies that work there are really helpful and sweet. Great service!

I like this store. Cute clothes for $ 16 and less. Not sure about the quality but seem to be okay for the price. I was very impressed with the customer service. The girl that worked there helped me find the dress I liked in my size. She was very helpful considering how busy they were and she was the only one working in the store.

Bad quality clothes for cheap. good if you only want to wear the item once or twice… buttons fall, off leggings tear or get holes within first to second use. you get what pay for… I have purchased clothes here on three different occasions & every time I have been extremely disappointed… everything I have purchased has ended up in the trash bin due to their terrible quality

Been to this store on several occasions usually with my daughter. Must say I am always pleasantly surprised every time I come here to find something to wear. All items $ 16 can’t beat the price but be careful some things u can find at other stores like Ross Marshall’s TJ Maxx don’t get caught up in the frenzy realize what is a good deal or not!

I found this place after eating at The Crema Café in Seal Beach on my way to walk on the beach with my bae.
I was stuffed and shouldn’t have really shopped that day but I couldn’t resist when I noticed this cute lil shop and that the prices seemed reasonable. When I began to scope out the selection, I realized that a lot of the clothing was $ 16 or less! I bought a knit sweater, a floral kimono and a blue purse. I forget how much my total was but I believe it was about $ 15-​$ 20 for every item. And they were cute! The shop is small and the girl working that day was super friendly. I wouldn’t stay the clothes were really awesome super good quality or anything, it seemed equivalent to maybe Forever21 and I was happy with that.
They did have fitting rooms but not very many. Overall, I would definitely go back here when I’m in the area.

The girls here are so sweet and always provide excellent customer service whenever I pop in. I’m SO lucky to have this gem literally steps from my place. :) Their inventory is always trendy yet affordable, not to mention great quality for the price point!

Price is awesome, everything is $ 16, but I had to carefully choose ones that don’t look cheap.
Since the prices are so low, fabric is fragile, not properly undergarment-​ed for sheer fabrics, not symmetrically measured, sewing skill is horrible, strings can be pulled out –especially lacey clothes, I needed to make sure threads not ripped or pulled– considering all these and more while browsing. Also trying out before buying is a smart move for sure.
I still think it is not a bad place at all for cute summer clothes at a low cost, also I like their accessory collection.
Staff is friendly, the shop is located in fun street with other cute restaurants, cafes and small stores.

I have always had amazing customer service at this store! One of the employees had a cast on her leg and she still hopped around the store with me to help me find a gift for a friend.
If you are looking for high quality clothing a trendy $ 16 store is clearly the wrong place but if you are looking for some fun, seasonal clothing and accessories this store is perfect.

Ugh. This store is awful compared to the other trendy boutiques in Belmont Shore. I used to shop here kind of frequently because I was in love with the $ 16 price tags on everything, but after all my clothes from here fell apart within the first month, the façade wore off.
Walking in here, the music is blaring and the amount of clothes they squeeze on each rack is overwhelming. Once you go through everything, you realize that 80% of the clothes are tacky anyway. And plus, the sales girls are breathing down your neck, constantly asking you if you’re doing alright. If you come up to me asking me if I have questions about anything and I reply with «no thank you, I’m just browsing for now,» you don’t need to come up to me another FIVE MORE TIMES asking the same question. I’m still browsing through the racks, it takes a while in this store anyways! I do enjoy good customer service and enjoy it at other stores when I can have a good conversation with a sales girl but here all interaction seems so forced and unnatural.
Lastly their new shoe line is horrible. I bought some cute booties here and the heel broke off within the first week but obviously I couldn’t exchange it because their return policy sucks and they’re not very forgiving of damaged items even though they sell horrible quality stuff.
Overall, it’s not worth it to me to continue shopping here when there are cuter and better stores on 2^nd or even at the mall.

four stars for having the friendliest group of employees ever! These girls were so sweet and helpful from the moment i wandered in. Helpful and super sincere without being too over baring.
The clothes are not «high-​end» couture like some of the other reviewer seem to expect but this place actually has a decent selection of cute dresses. Many of the previous reviews complain about the quality, material and styles. but can you really complain if everything is ONLY $ 16? You get what you paid for. If you’re lucky you’ll walk out with some pretty great finds! Definitely worth checking out.

I left this place feeling like sh**.
I found a black beanie with studs around the edges. Super cute for the fall/​winter. At the register I paid for it in cash. Literally as the lady was explaining to me that the beanie was final sale, a stud fell off. We both saw it happen right before our eyes.
The lady tried to cover it with her hand, so I stopped her and said that I will not be taking home that beanie since it was defected. She offered to find another one, but it turned out that it was the last black one. I asked her to refund my money since I paid cash and although it was final sale, it was defected before I even walked out of the store.
However, she explained that she could not refund my money because she had already rung up the purchase on the register. I asked to speak with the manager and the lady said she was the manager. So I asked to speak with the owner, and she informed me that something like this had happened already previously in the day, and the owner would not refund that customer’s money… meaning that there was no way I was getting my money back either.
I really don’t understand the lack of customer service. I will never be shopping at this store again, and will recommend my friends not to either.

I adore this little store. In the summer, everything is $ 16 dollars or less. It’s a LITTLE deceiving, just because mostly everything is $ 16 dollars anyway, and only the «basics» like some t-​shirts and whatnot are less than 16.
The first time I went, I had a less than memorable experience. I bought a long gown that had all these beads falling off and was pretty much the last one and I assumed no one wanted it. I only got a dollar off, which I thought was lame, but I was able to fix up the dress and I really like it.
My second experience there was MUCH better. I believe that the employees are reading their Unilocal reviews because the customer service was GREAT. I had a wonderful employee named Elizabeth who helped me pick out 1 date dress, and 1 bridal shower dress. Both were $ 16 (Of course) but they were ADORABLE. She totally listened to me when I said «No sheer, no cut-​outs» and she went through the entire store hunting for stuff that wasn’t sheer and that didn’t have cut outs. I ended up with an adorable polka dot/​chiffon High-​Low dress, and another adorable «lace» little black dress with some flair at the bottom. Both hit my list of «top dresses» I own. I loveeeee them! And I also mentioned I got a new job, and Elizabeth helped me pick out some fashionable, work-​attire tops. I really appreciated her help in zipping me up/​out of the dresses.
Also, a note to Susie Q who claimed they «had the audacity to zip-​tie my bag.» It’s not their fault. If the headquarters tell them they need to zip-​tie their customers’ bags, they do it. Or else they’re not following protocol. And it’s not like they’re racist, they just want to prevent stolen goods, which makes sense because people steal stuff from stores ALL the time. Yes, the zip-​ties are a little much but if they are required to do it, they have to. I got zip-​tied and I’m Asian. I wasn’t about to go around stealing accessories with chop-​sticks, but they did it anyway.
I’ll definitely be back for some more cute clothes. Thanks, Elizabeth!

There is nothing couture about this store. Yes, we are reminded that everything in this store is $ 15, but do you really have to say it like 10 times?
The window displays are cute and yes they have a few good pieces here and there. Honestly, I didn’t see anything that I needed to have or fell in love with in terms of clothing. The quality is rather lackluster and the items are definitely hit or miss. I feel like if you really wanted to buy something here, you would definitely have to buy 2 – 3 items to complete the outfit which defeats the whole purpose of bargain shopping.
I purchased a pair of sunglasses for about $ 7 but that was about it. I really really wanted to buy a belt that they had on the mannequin but the sales lady said that they were not allowed to touch anything from the displays because their «visual department is separate from the retail department». OOOOK.
I will stick to Forever21, Nordstrom Rack and other places for my affordable wardrobe pieces.

Heavenly? Ha! Try the opposite place, it also starts with an ‘H’! As a customer, I have not been treated so poorly in a long time!
I’ve briefly stepped into this store a few times while exploring 2^nd Street, but have never been interested in actually purchasing something. The price of $ 15 or less lures you in, but the poor quality and questionable fashions make it easy to leave quickly.
Along with visiting Olives next door for some dinner, we stopped in to use a groupon purchased as a gift for my sister. Now I have used quite a few groupons in the past and am quite familiar with the fine print, so I had no concerns about my purchase until I had to deal with the employees.
While paying, one of the two employees assisting us at the register asked for my driver’s license. I nicely told them I would be paying cash for the few cents over my $ 20 groupon. She said she needed my id for the groupon. I nicely explained that groupons are transferable and the name on it will not necessarily match my ID, and on top of that, groupon redemption does not require ID.
She still said she needed to WRITE DOWN my DL number and kept insisting, but I refused to give in. I nicely explained that it wasn’t her fault (as she explained it was a corporate policy), however I do not feel comfortable providing identifying information about myself when they are verifying my certificate as valid and I am paying in cash. I was very calm and rational about it the whole time because I don’t take it personally, but this place needs to teach its employees to grow up and do the same. (Also their corporate office needs to examine their practices which may needlessly compromise customer info.)
This was one of the most ridiculous customer services experiences I have had in a while. I still don’t understand why a company would enforce such an absurd policy which can compromise a customer’s identity, especially when they keep customer email sign up lists on the counter for anyone to see.
Most of the groupons I have bought or received have been for good companies using them to advertise, but this is one groupon I truly regret using!
I just hope my sister kind of likes the item purchased for her because they have a pretty limited exchange and crappy no-​return policy here.
