Bracha

Great boutique shop. Reasonable prices. Excellent, friendly customer service. AND you can find made in America here.

We happened upon this place while at the San Carlos Art and Wine Faire. What a find! They have stylish clothes that any age can wear. The fabrics and styles were not your department-​store type. I bought a beautiful jacket on clearance for just $ 39. It’s so unusual I know I’ll get compliments on it.

This store is simply wonderful. If anything, it just has toooo many choices! It’s a place you want to go to more than once, because I always find something new that I like. I spent an hour there the first time, just looking (well, maybe I might have walked out with a goodie or two). Victoria has loads of wonderful proprietary designs you might not see in other stores, but, unlike most «Company stores», she also has all sorts of other designers and clothes from everyday casual to fancy go to party long dresses. What’s more, she and her staff really try to help me find stuff I’m looking for. I hope this review gets posted – I tried once before and nothing happened.

I was just in town for the local art & wine fest and I stopped in to browse the sale. Everything in the store was on sale and on top of that 3… yes THREE different clearance racks XD. The ladies working (while slightly understaffed) took the time to say hello to the hordes of sale crazed shoppers. They also told myself and my shopping partner in crime about the promotions and took the time to make small chit chat with us. They were both very friendly and seemed to handle the rush well. I really like seeing co-​workers help each other out when things get busy! The store caters to a dressier clientele and they seem to have a grip of fancy schmancy floor length dresses (prom/​formals I guess?) as well as the usual (tho less pricey) neat, individual, interesting tops and bottoms. I got a few things off the clearance rack as well as a really cute tunic from Mystree. I had to stay away from the jewelry temptations but the treats seemed less expensive than the shops I usually browse through… still pricey but I didn’t see anything over 100. All in all friendly people + Super clearance = happy shoppers :) Ill be back for some Christmas shopping.
ONE downside… not the shops fault tho. there was a very angry customer… she made things HELLA awkward for everyone in the store shopping. I guess she had held some items and for whatever reason a few items got put back on the sale rack… lets just say she was less than understanding (tisk tisk! I cant believe a LOCAL business owner would treat another business like that :-(especially being so close in proximity… good thing I am on a diet and wont be needing anymore fudge!)

we bought my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah dress here, absolutely beautiful dress, which we didn’t see anywhere else. she looked gorgeous, staff very pleasant

Bracha is one of the few stores I have found that carries Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, which I love. The store is beautiful, has clothes for all ages (I’m in my 60’s), and staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. Great addition to San Carlos.

I haven’t purchased any clothing yet since I’ve been in the states, but today I couldn’t resist. Clothes… you’re probably wondering? As a photographer, I sometimes purchase women’s clothing. I use these pieces during foto sessions when my client/​model doesn’t have suitable clothing to make her look comfortable and great for their fotos. So over the years I’ve picked up things that I like and I’ve got a really nice collection so far of blouses, dresses, skirts, and shorts. I shoot a very particular style and these items I pick up help me to get my style into my pictures. Previous purchases have been in Germany and Spain. I liked a lot of the selections here, and they have some very niiiice blouses and other items that I would have liked to add to my collection. I picked up two pieces… if you a model for me or will be a future foto client, you might see the two pieces I just added!!! ;-) Street parking only.

This is a really nice boutique store in downtown San Carlos. They are located a block away and on the same side of the street as Town restaurant. The designer, Victoria Bracha designs many of the clothing pieces in the store and they are one-​of a kind in limited quantity. I was impressed with the gorgeous special occasion outfits and was able to find the perfect unique dress for an upcoming wedding. Sue was very helpful in assisting me with trying different dresses and with her good advice. Bracha also has more casual clothing, jewelry, and scarves.
