PARC

My wife and I stumbled upon this boutique when in Minneapolis. The window display caught our attention immediately. The store is quite nice, good selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff, upscale and worth it. We’ll be back again sometime when in Minneapolis.

I have champagne taste on a beer budget so this place is way too expensive for me but it’s very clear they know their fashion. It’s a cute little store so it’s fun to go browse for some fashion inspiration every once in a while. They have some cool Minneapolis themed items that could be nice gifts for people or fancy out of towners.

always so fun shopping here!

Excuse me? Every single other clothing boutique ever created? Listen up. You’re gonna want to hear this. Because THIS is how you run a women’s clothing boutique.
Actually, I’m going to write it in bullet form, because I could write an entire «Boutique Making for Dummies» book about this place, but that’s long and boring. You’re probably already reading this on your phone or at work going «SPIT IT OUT, LADY!» So, I’m gonna spit.
Parc Boutique is the epitome of what every single women’s boutique/​clothing retailer should be:
— It stocks a large selection of on-​trend, adorable seasonal outfits; and offers them at very reasonable prices.
— It hires the friendliest, most helpful employees who aren’t just smiley, but who can give you an honest opinion when you’re trying to decide between items.
— The space itself is clean, bright, and well-​designed. Whoever their interior designer is, can you please come over to my house immediately? KTHX.
— They always have NEW merch. I can’t believe how quickly and frequently they get new stuff in. It’s fantastic!
— They have a functioning website (which lots of small boutiques can’t really support).
— They have GREAT social media support (like a beautiful, inspiring Instagram account… it’s definitely inspired a few purchases from me!)
— They host rad events and trunk shows and open houses all the time!
— And they have a great loyalty/​rewards program where you get money back after you spend a certain amount of money.
I love shopping here because even when I spend more than I «should,» I love that it goes back to supporting a local shop instead of a big corporation. Plus, I know there won’t be 2,000 other girls in the Twin Cities rocking the SAME look. It’s just a really happy place, that stocks a variety of sizes and trends and items (dresses/​pants/​blouses/​scarves/​jewelry/​shoes/​hats/​name a thing)! Yeah. I’m just relieved it’s in Nordeast and not my neighborhood or I would probably be living out of a tent that I made using their clothes…

I started shopping here when my friend introduced me to the store a year ago and now I am the one to keep referring this boutique to people! There is a wide range in prices and brands, so you are always able to find something within your budget and style needs. I have become a regular customer.
Parc Boutique always has great sales and rewards programs, which include a Sip and Shop where you receive 15% off and can drink wine while you shop! Not a bad gig…
The staff is VERY friendly and accommodating. They definitely have mastered great customer service without putting pressure on the shopper to buy. They are definitely representing what great fashion looks like while working there and offer great fashion advice to customers.
They have a really amazing artist eye with their online look books, styling and visual merchandising within the store. They also support local jewelry and clothing designers, which is great to see. I would definitely recommend signing up for emails, or connect with their Facebook page to attend the events. They are always a lot of fun with people, food, wine, and of course clothing (and a sale!).

A beautiful store, with great staff. I have never being anything but welcomed when I have stopped by to browse over a lunch break with co-​workers.
I have only purchased odds and ends — a yummy candle or small accessory but was very pleased by the clothing/​accessory/​gift selection. Very on-​trend pieces from brands like BB Dakota and I’ve also seen featured designer collaborations. Cool tie-​in with Minnesota roots.
A good price point range too.

Parc Boutique has been a Northeast favorite since entering the scene! The owner, Thao, does an amazing job of bringing super fashionable unique clothes at great places into our marketplace. The entire sales team is great at making recommendations so don’t be afraid to ask for help building an awesome outfit. Although the space is not huge they pack a big bang for the buck with everything from shoes, jewelry, belts and a wide selection of clothes.
Bonus tip: Be sure to follow Parc Boutique on Twitter and Facebook for lots of great updates and sale information.

This is my favorite, favorite, favorite place to shop. As others have said, the owner has fantastic taste and everything is pretty affordable. I love all the bright colors and pretty jewelry. I always walk out of here with something fabulous!

I really love the idea of Parc Boutique. It’s a locally owned shop in NE, and the windows are always styled to perfection, so I can never resist popping in. I’ve bought some pieces that I love from Parc, and I’ll certainly be back in, but here’s my problem: the buyers are clearly buying for a pretty specific body type. If you’re curvy, beware that shopping at Parc might make you wish you weren’t. I so wish there were a few more options for the ladies of Minneapolis’ vast array of shapes.
Another little issue: one day I bought three new items, including some faux-​leather leggings, a blouse, and a sweater. By the second time I wore each, there was a hole in the seams on every one of them, and not in the places that seemed logical (blouse and sweater got random holes in the wrist area and the leggings split at the knee. Not exactly the aforementioned curvy parts of a body.). The nice thing was that I exchanged the pants for another item, but really I just wanted quality clothes.
I love basically every piece of clothing that Thao picks out — seriously, if I could shop only at Parc, I’d have the cutest, most colorful, and probably most affordable wardrobe in this city. But, alas, I’ll have to be satisfied with finding a few cute pieces a year. For those of you who can button those blouses all the way up, shop away, please, and let the rest of us live vicariously through you!

Love this little boutique. I’ve bought a few items here and have been extremely happy.
I also love supporting local businesses, and this is one shop that I have no problem spending some money in!

Thanks Unilocalers for leading me to this little gem! I was in MN on business and had some time to kill. I ran a quick search on clothing boutiques in the are and Parc Boutique popped up.
Super friendly staff! 5 stars all the way. I didn’t catch her name, but she was very helpful in getting me there (google GPS pointed me in the wrong direction), she pointed out all the new arrivals and then recommended an amazing place to eat afterwards.
Great clothes and I loved, loved, loved the jewelry. I bought a few things — really reasonably priced.

Best clothes in the city!

I like this place and it’s in my hood. The jewelry is especially inviting, as is the sale rack. The clothing isn’t super high priced, but it’s also not the greatest quality. The sweatshirt I bought this spring is already done for. :(Still, I like the spunk of this place and that it offers an alternative to usual mall duds.

Really cute neighborhood shop. Reasonable prices and fun accessible trends to purchase.

I wish that a fashion portal would open when I open my closet each morning. It’d be like Narnia, without the lion or the witch… just the wardrobe. I’d just pop in to some awesome store, play dress up and then come back through my wardrobe like the Pevensie children.
Anyway, Parc Boutique would definitely be one of my fashion portal stops. I follow the owner Thao on Twitter and Pinterest because she has amazing taste, so I should’ve known how much I’d like this store.
It had been a while since my first visit to Parc (when I was young and broke), so my visit last week felt like the maiden voyage. There’s a balance of affordability and higher-​fashion style here, which I appreciate because that is a balance I try to find on a daily basis. There’s a great selection of dresses, tops, jewelry, denim and more — all priced and curated well.
The bauble table was where I had the most trouble saying goodbye. I saw the most interesting geometric pendant priced at about $ 75 (as usual, my eye wanders to one of the most expensive things on the table). Though I couldn’t bring myself to drop the cash, I was compelled to put it on my Christmas list eight months in advance.

I recently moved into the neighborhood, and I finally hit this place up!
Definitely worth checking out. More reasonably priced than some of the other local boutiques, but with some of the same great brands such as BB Dakota and Kenzie.
Also, the jewelry is super unique and in many cases made by local artists.
I haven’t purchased anything other accessories here yet, but let me tell you, this place makes it incredibly hard to stick to my budget! Will be shopping here for a NYE dress for SURE.

Not all boutiques are made for my style. Nothing wrong with that, and for those who are young and trendy (while still staying in a safe, none-​too-​daring zone), Parc Boutique is a nice little shop. It’s bright and airy, the employees aren’t overbearing, and the prices are in line with what they should be.
Unfortunately, in the workplace I have to be more formal than jersey knit, and outside of work, I get a lot funkier than Parc offers. I did manage to find a really cute white lace top that was work-​appropriate with the right accompaniments, so I can’t blow off the store entirely.
Although when it comes to accessories, if you’re the type who goes nuts for unique and fun jewelry, I have to say Parc Boutique offers quite a variety. If nothing else, I’ll stop in again to browse through that area.

This is an adorable boutique without the cliché prices that always link to the boutiques you normally see. It has a great lay out with amazing display pieces. There are pieces of high end dresses, sweathers, pants, etc with a cute «I heart Mpls» and «612» tshirts to represent the city pride.
They had an amazing selection of jewelry. I bought an amazing pair of vintage inspired jade and gold earrings for $ 10 while they were hanging next to a pair for $ 45. There is a wide range of prices, but I love how they blend it all together.
Amazing customer service… far from snobby at all. She was carrying conversation with us during the whole time but never over pushy on the sale — only complimented out selections. I wish I would have known about this place long before I discovered it (though my wallet probably thanks me…)

This store has made my life a lot easier and my wife happy all with convenience and affordable prices, hard to beat that.
It has very nice ‘hipster’-ish jewelry and clothing that comes from a lot of local artists and is very nice and reasonably priced.
But when I say hipster, I mean fairly grown up hipster, stuff you could wear to a corporate job and would not be out of place, not really funky stuff with all animals etc. For that there is I Like You 2 blocks across Hennepin.

Appealing to the urbane twenty-​thirty-​something female crowd. Prices are relatively reasonable; most of the brands are inexpensive, such as BB Dakota, Alternative Apparel, Jack by BB Dakota, etc mixed with higher priced items like J Brand Jeans. Some local stuff like Hackwith Design House.
Men’s selection is pretty basic but well-​made basics.
My only complaint is that a lot of the trendier dresses have too youthful of cuts; I don’t really want to show off my cooch or my boobs that much. But that’s an issue with most clothing in general; these days everyone wants you to dress like an 18-​year old party girl, even if it’s unflattering or inappropriate.
The trendier stuff is cheap but won’t last long. From a cost-​effectiveness point only you might want to consider Forever 21 or H&M. However, if you want to support both your fashion fetish and local businesses, come here.
However, the stock rotates pretty frequently, the sales staff is really nice, so it’s always a treat to drop in and browse.
