Polkadots & Moonbeams

Love Wendy and Flo. They helped me picking out my outfit. The owner, Wendy is very nice and pretty too !

This review is for the vintage store only!
They had such cute clothing! It was great! The second i walked in, i was acknowledged and asked if i was looking for anything or how she could help. I was just browsing so she really couldnt. Its organized by color, so i thought that was very convenient! Dresses are a bit pricey, but what did you expect?
Overall, very well kept store!

I’ve been shopping at Polkadots & Moonbeams for over 10 years. I call them my store family. Wendy has such an eye for picking pieces that can fit all different ages and varieties of women. I’ve used Polkadots as my go to one-​stop shop. Lauren, Kelly and Flo are absolutely amazing. I having been missing Qui but the girls all make up for it. I feel taken care of when I go to Polkadots. I can even call ahead if I have a special event or item I need and the girls will prepare a whole room for me. They know exactly what will fit me and look great. I always love the pieces they pick out and discover something new. The pieces at Polkadots are special and when you wear them you feel like one of kind. The sale section is great for deals and in general they love giving back to their customers with rewards when you spend and extra bonuses if you follow their Facebook or join their email list. I would highly recommend Polkadots & Moombeams for anyone who just wants to feel job. Literally just walking in the store always brightens my day!
Best store ever!!!

I discovered this shop one lucky afternoon about a month ago. What started as a browse turned into a memorable experience.
I received a lot of helpful (not pushy) attention from the darling woman who was working that day. She made the experience fun by selecting several outfits that were suited for my shape: one for a wedding and one for a 4^th of July party. I was surprised that when I came out of the fitting room I felt awesome!
The outfits were a hit; I received many compliments on my clothing at both events.
I ended up returning just yesterday to buy two more of the same «Million Dollar Baby» cut in different colors.
I now consider these pieces to be major staples of my wardrobe. I am thrilled to have found this place and I appreciate the reasonable prices.
I could spend all day browsing though Polkadots and Moonbeams’ spectacular collection.
Absolutely love this place.

Polkadots and moonbeams is one of my to go places in LA. When ever I’m in town I HAVE to stop in. Parking is the worst, but I sometimes get really lucky. FLO is the only person I trust to style me at Polkadots and moonbeams. She makes my shopping experience fun every time. Best costumer service!!! Go see FLO

When shopping in LA polkadots and moonbeams is the place to go with great customer service from Wendy Lauren and Kelly it’s always great to stop and see the new collection from Catherine Popesc.

I received a gift from that store, and unfortunately I already had the exact item at home. Turns out the lady that works there by the name of FLO knows my very dear friend that bought me the gift. When I asked FLO to please NOT tell my friend that I came by the store to exchange the gift as I did not want to offend her or disappoint her by any means… Flo made it VERY clear to me that she would definitely will tell her if she happened to come by the store again!!!
You would think I asked Flo to lie under oath in a murder trial!!!
I was left with a very bitter taste in my mouth. Even if you had I gift certificate I would never again set foot in that store, nor would I ever recommend it to any of my friends. EVER.

The unique selection and excellent customer service is unsurpassed. I love this place. Totally unpretentious and funky. Keep doing what you’re doing, y’all.

I love the Polkadots & Moonbeams vintage-​style store on 3^rd Street (a few blocks East of La Cienega). If I need a new outfit, this is the first place that I think of going to because they have a lot of great, good-​quality, STYLISH stuff. The prices are decent, especially considering all of the great finds. under one roof! So many great dresses, pants, sweaters, skirts, shoes, jewelery, etc. It is almost like a one-​stop place to put together a whole, trendy outfit… at a reasonable price.
The salespeople are always very nice and helpful. And, it is obvious that the owners have excellent fashion sense.
I shall be there next week… looking for yet another outfit…

I love love love love this place. I’ve been going since I was a kid– their vintage store is excellently curated and their vintage-​inspired store is equally as well done. The quality at both stores is HIGH. Fantastic designers, some new to me, some very well known.

I literally can not shop anywhere else. Flo + Lauren are my go-​to girls and make sure I always find exactly what i am looking for and help me stay within the budget I want to spend. They will pull thing after thing after thing from the racks for me to ensure that I am finding clothes that I feel comfortable in and that I love. I shop here not only because of the awesome collections that they sell and their decent pricing, but also because of these two lovely ladies who make it so easy and fun to shop (which I actually don’t love to do). I can’t imagine ever shopping at a chain store or mall again, and luckily because of P & M, I won’t have to!

**GREAT WOMEN’S VINTAGE STORE ON 3RD STREET**
PARKING
========
Street meter.
AMBIANCE
=========
Looks like a crazy French grandma’s messy attic with vintage clothes and accessories.
DRESS
======
TANK SEQUIN DRESS — $ 300
Probably made in the 80’s.
Tried it on, looked goooood.
Maybe it was overpriced, maybe I should have bargained.
Didn’t matter, it was a good deal TO ME.
I would have paid $$$$ at Neiman or Saks.
Customer service was friendly and attentive.
Hi Patti!
PRO TIP:
If you have more time, be leisure.
Plenty of good finds.
Lucky for me, I found my dress within minutes.
RECOMMEND for those seeking for vintage, consignment, and unique pieces.

This is a gorgeously curated vintage store; it’s my personal favorite out of all of the great options here in L.A. (besides Lemon Frog). Polkadots has treasures from every era and style imaginable. And it’s not outrageously priced either! I’ve bought things here ranging from a 1920’s flapper dress to a mod 1960’s baby-​doll dress. Anything you could possibly want/​need fashion wise is here and ready for you to find. The people that work here couldn’t be more friendly; whenever I go the salespeople will spend so much time helping me find things that really suit me and making it so much fun to play dress up. Honestly I couldn’t imagine anyone not loving this place. Treat yourself and stop by ASAP!

(For their vintage store)
WOW! I’ve been wanting to visit this place for years, and now that I finally got around to it, they have a new loyal customer!
The store is well-​organized, the prices are too reasonable to be believed, and the selection is varied and gorgeous! Not all of their items are in mint condition, but that’s only to be expected with used clothing, and the damaged items are priced accordingly. The oldest item I saw was from the 30’s and it was in beautiful condition. I’m over the moon for this store!
Shoutout to Jennifer for being an absolute doll. She was helpful, gave honest advice about each item I tried on, and wasn’t pushy at all. If I had the pocket money, I’d be back here every day!
(Tip: If there’s no street parking, park in the lot for the Beverly Connection.)

I’ve been going to the modern store for years, ignoring the vintage which, let’s face it, was pretty ignorant of me. About a year ago or so I just checked out the vintage store on a whim and boy, does my wardrobe thank me! Also, my wallet. I don’t really like to dig through the racks, I’m the type of shopper where I like things right in front of me but at Polkadots, I’ll take my time and look through because it’s well worth it. Jennifer’s also awesome, she actually let’s me know when they get new stuff in. When I leave my information at stores so they can let me know and never hear from them, I think, «Lame!» but not her! I mean, I wouldn’t leave my info if I didn’t want to be contacted then. Jeez.
My best compliments of all my dresses are from Polkadots and I love that it’s vintage, not your typical mall off the rack dress that the next gal will likely have or get. Plus the sizing is generous for my broad shoulders since gals back then were NORMAL. goodness. I digress.
The prices were fair, lots of accessories in the store — hats, jewelry, scarves, etc. They also had a selection of new dresses too! I almost hate to write this review to let other know my little secret which probably isn’t that much of a secret but honestly, it deserves a great one. Parking is metered. I think you can park in the neighborhoods… but don’t quote me on that, it is by permit as well so there are limitations so be sure to check the signs! I learned the hard way but that was my fault. Be prepared to spend some time at the vintage store but it’s well worth it! Remember, if the clothes have a little imperfections, it is VINTAGE. Don’t be nitpicky. Goodness, writing this review makes me want to go back.

I have been shopping at Polkadots and Moonbeams for at least 10 years and it is the best! Wendy, the owner is an amazing buyer and, because of her, the selection is huge and the prices are incredibly fair. This boutique is truly amazing. The women that work there are very knowledgeable about style and fashion and they are so friendly, personable and fun to be with. I will not go anywhere else for my clothes. I get complimented all the time on my style and on the outfits that I am wearing. What a wonderful place. The clothes are beautiful and hip, the place is adorable and the music is the best. Thank you Wendy, Flo, Kuie and Loren. You guys are the be bomb and I love you!!!

Far and away my favorite vintage store. The prices are right, the selection overflows with color and style, and the staff will happily provide their honest opinions about what you (think) you’re about to buy.
I bought some great dangly earrings here a couple months ago. Believe or not, they actually stood out from another pair that I came close to purchasing at a different boutique, and they cost me a lot less than what I would have paid.
I prefer the vintage store to the new store, mostly because it’s more in my price– range. That said, the new store offers some pretty unbeatable sales every so often, and their collection is fairly consistently awesome.
In short, don’t be fooled by the gaudy name. Class shines down from all around at Polkadots!

What’s a «dude» doing leaving a review for a women’s fashion boutique?
Guess!
My GF looooved the dress I bought her. I could not have done it, literally, without the help of the very cool and personable sales staff at Polkadots & Moonbeams.
Objectively speaking, Polkadots & Moonbeams has to be among the best businesses of any type in LA. Fun times!
Highly recommended!!!

Not one but two stores on 3^rd? Polkadots, you are aggressive when it comes to prime real estate, and I like a greedy gal.
I stopped by here in hopes of finding a vintage-​inspired dress for an event and although I wanted to grab everything from the first threshold I stepped through, I had to stay focused and not stray. I tried on a few things knowing full well that they were out of my price range for a costume, but I am a woman and so this is par for the course. After seeing the styles I had left in the dressing room, the lovely sales girl mentioned that I could find more decade-​appropriate dresses just a couple of doors down at their other store.
She was so right! It was a buffet of old fashioned garb and accessories. I spent over an hour going through each rack (separated by color). Unfortunately for me, nothing quite fit in the right places (too big here, too small there, buttons popping there, zipper making funky ripples there, etc.). However I did find some good accessories to dandy up an LBD that I already owned.
Prices ranged and I believe there was something for every budget.
Love all the women that work there, they go the extra mile to help you find just what you’re looking for.

I’m a detail maniac and when I told Wendy and Matilda that I was hosting a Mad Men party and I had very little time– they came through for me.
Not only were these two women completely professional, they hustled in a short amount of time to help me find something that fit my figure, the occasion, and my budget.
i’ve been to hundreds of vintage and antique stores around the states and I give this store 5 stars.
The store was clean, organized, and charming. It wasn’t overwhelming and there was absolutely no attitude. Each customer was treated equally while I was there and it felt like home. How’s that for a recommendation?!? I was also pleasantly surprised to see that there were many sizes too choose from — there was more than just the perfect 22 inch waist dresses one tends to find at vintage stores.
Go now, run actually… good people with great taste. No snobs allowed.
