Felipa’s On 45th

I visited Felipa’s on a lark, and sure wish I’d had that lark earlier. Great selection, well-​organized, good quality and fair prices. I purchased a lovely, sophisticated silk blouse for work. Stylish, some items suitable for nights out, others for professional jobs. Another Seattle treasure! Parking in front, great location midway between University Village and Children’s Hospital.

This consignment store has been so great. I have been buying and selling here for years. The place I always recommend when someone asks about finding a fancy dress for an event or wants to spruce up their work attire.

I have been a customer for several years here and am always impressed by the high quality items at a great price! The customer service is always exceptional which is an added bonus.

Sweet people work here. Great selection of mixed day and evening wear. Great handbags! Great shoes!

A little gem — right next to my other favorite consignment shop, Le Petite Shoppe. Who knew they had KIDS clothes here? Great buys — very lovely clothes, and not too crammed like other kids consignment stores. Between Felipa’s and Le Petite Shoppe, you don’t need to go anywhere else!

Ok if what you are looking for is 40+ career-​minded clothing. Not a ton of designer (a few racks devoted to higher-​end stuff), lots of Banana Republic, Ann Taylor. Shoes looked a little too worn. Probably won’t go back. They do take clothing for Dress for Success, so that makes them good people. It was fairly busy on a Tues. morning.
Their costume jewelry collection was pretty extensive – saw a pair of earrings for $ 6.50!

That’s a nice consignment boutique to check out. The clothes are meant for women 40 and over (in my estimate) that like to dress really well, with some items for the younger career woman as well (lots of work suits!). You won’t find anything cheap, per se (as for bargains, you can do better at other consignment stores), but you will find lightly worn items (everything is in GREAT condition), for, say, 25−50% of the original price. Most everything is from designer labels. Lots of shoes and handbags, some jewelry. I doubt I’ll be going back often because I dress much more casually than this, but I definitely recommend it.

The evil selfish part of me wants no one else to know about this gem of a store, but where would Unilocal be if the evil selfish part always got its way?
So I’m starting a new job and don’t own any appropriate clothing since I haven’t worked «corporate-​ish» in years. I bought a couple of pieces here and there, but my co-​workers were going to realize fairly quickly that I had a shallow wardrobe.
Behold the wonder that is Felipa’s…a color-​coordinated bevy of fancy (Burberry on the high end, Ann Taylor on the lower end) label clothes neatly arranged by genre (shirts, pants, skirts, etc), even some sparkly evening wear (I’m the girl who once rented a dress to wear to a black tie wedding. That’s right, rented). She even carries children’s clothes.
So say you have to be buttoned-​down by day though your wild tattooed side gets to let loose at night. Well you certainly don’t want to spend a fortune on your day wear. As long as you’re not my size and not looking on the days that I am, you can shop successfully here.
Sample purchase — Ann Taylor cashmere sweater set (set! both pieces) around $ 50. That’s cashmere people!
Now completely forget you ever read this review.
