Scout & Molly’s

My first time in this store on yesterday (Sunday). I stopped in as I strolled North Hills looking for something different from the boring malls in the Raleigh area. I did not buy anything but I definitely liked the store, the items they carried and would love to go back and hopefully find something that I actually buy. The associate was sweet too.

Love this boutique! always pick up stylish pieces when Im in raleigh!

I was first introduced to this boutique by my current girlfriend (she’s opened my eyes to many a place that I’ll be noting in future Unilocal reviews) back in the spring of 2012 when it resided at its prior location. She is friends with the manager due to both of them being pet owners. That relationship had afforded many an exchange of info and goods, both for dressing attire to wear and pet ownership tips. So her affinity translated into me making several returns that year in search of items she’d like. I found myself purchasing many a jewelry piece (from the Sylvia Benson collection if anyone interested) for her as everyday gifts, as well as building a rapport with the ladies that worked there (majority being textile majors at NC State University) who were gracious enough to assist and not judge me for expressing some level of enthusiasm as a man in a woman’s shop whenever I came. The ever so frequent sales were also enough to compel me to return. Those were the glory days I remember of yesteryear. Ever since the shop moved locations, unfortunately I haven’t been able to find anymore interesting or suitable pieces there. I’m not sure if my girl’s tastes are one dimensional, I’ve bought her too many of the same gifts, or if the selection has just become generally lacking. I also find the interior to be a bit cramped compared to before. Sadly, I can no longer consider Scout & Molly a desirable place to shop.

Style and class with the comfort of feeling like you’re shopping with friends. This boutique has a cool sophisticated air from its signature lime-​green walls complimented with pink décor, comfy couches and smooth wooden benches, art strewn about, and accessories arranged for easy browsing. Things at this shop aren’t just categorized, they’re paired with pieces you actually might wear together.
Some of the hip women’s designers their inventory is booming with these days include Alice & Trixie, Waverly Grey, AG, Hudson, Bleu Lab reversible denim, James & Joy, Voom, Patterson Kinkaid, TLA, Drew, Joie, Badgley Mischka and the list goes on! My personal faves are BCBG, Joe’s Jeans, and Nicole Miller. I’ve got 2 BCBG dresses myself that make me feel like I own the world when I’m wearing them. My pair of Joe’s Jeans are probably the best pair of jeans I’ve ever bought and my Mom and sister have commented as such.
This warm, easygoing atmosphere is also especially friendly because owner Lisa Kornstein is very involved in the community in terms of giving back and supporting local causes and events. She’s participated in local fashion shows while also hosting fundraisers on site as well. Addtionally, they’re environmental by using cloth bags for you to take home your purchases rather than the typical plastic. And those reusable bags are good-​sized pink bags too! Her dogs Scout & Molly are the namesake of the store thus making it also a friendly place for dogs to tag along while their owners shop. I always love a place that caters to people’s hearts with a touch of class.

I received the best customer service here!
I did a google search for a BCBG bandage skirt I was looking for and pleasantly found Scout & Molly’s boutique online.
I was having difficultly placing my order online and sent a quick help email and promptly received an email back.
Lisa (owner and buyer) and Matney were both incredibly sweet and very quick to respond to my request and order. I ordered the skirt on Saturday and received it on Thursday. Yay!
They are currently offering free shipping online and since they are shipping from the boutique in North Carolina there is no tax for Californians. :-)
I will definitely check them out again!

Lime-​green walls and rich coffee-​colored hardwoods, Scout & Molly’s is a stylish boutique for the fashion-​forward. One of the most thorough selections of BCBG I’ve seen; plus a great mix of casual and more dressy items — 3-​dots tees, designer jeans, Fashionista, Diane von Furstenberg, jewelry, even Tocca candles. The setting is what really gets me though. Posh, elegant; how can you help but feel über-​chic?
