Hottie

Not even worth 1 star! If you want to shop somewhere that is desperate for sales, over priced merchandise, uneducated people, well this is the place to be! The old lady could barely even type 1wpm, they will stalk you as you shop, and try to persuade to you that every damn thing looks good on you! For the price range on this store, you would expect at least more better customer service, but goodluck with this place! And there is NO RETURNS!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO overpriced. The clothing is probably lowest quality of fabric available, and the prices are just unbelievably high. For example, you know that really stretchy really cheap lace fabric that costs about $ 2/​yard? They had a really cute backless dress made of that fabric, and it was being sold for $ 279.
A few weeks ago, I bought a Marc by Marc Jacobs dress for $ 199 at Bloomingdales. How is it that this crap by crap cracobs is $ 279?
On a brighter note, their stuff is undeniably cute. Very convenient to buy clothes to go out. I just couldn’t believe how high the prices are. Oh, and they’re a bit pushy.

This store is a bit of a conundrum for me. Where shall I begin?
Hottie. The name is Hottie. …Really? Because I thought we were on Melrose, not Pico Blvd.
Prices. Boutique. However, its placement on Melrose is not exactly prime. Anyone shopping this side of Fairfax High ain’t exactly looking to pay $ 40 for a sheer white crop-​top.
Only reason I went in was because they were having some sort of clearance sale. My mistake. Clearance rack. Clearance, by the way, still means $ 20 for that mediocre-​quality rhinestone mini dress.
Sales lady. Please stop tagging along behind me. I’m trying to shop, and I do not need assistance. My purse barely holds my cell phone, wallet, and keys; there is no way I’m fitting any clothes in there. I’m wearing a t-​shirt and short shorts. No clothing going under there either. By the way, no one else is in your store, so it ain’t like I can be sly about it. Let me repeat: no one else in the store. Wonder why. Oh, and please don’t tell me how very cute you think each item I touch is. I am not one to go around asking 50-​year-​olds for fashion advice, ‘kay?
The clothes are cute in here, but it is merely one of many boutiques on Melrose, and how it manages to stay open despite lackluster merch and worse customer service, I don’t know.

The low rating is for the price v. quality ratio of the merchadise here. There were some cute dresses that I’ve seen at other places for $ 29.99, selling here at $ 70.00. Big price difference for the exact same dress, same brand and all. (If any of you are familiar, the «Mystic» brand is usually pretty cheap, but here, the price will make you believe it’s more of a high-​end brand). For a regular party dress that isn’t made of the best material, they should not be ripping ppl off at MORE THAN TWICE the selling price.
I unfortunately got a dress here on an emergency basis because i had no time to shop for an event i had to attend. The lady also does not let you bargain even though I knew the dress I picked was extremely overpriced (it was about $ 45 more than it should have been). She kept insisting it was a «great deal», but clearly that’s a lie…
Avoid if you can. :(

I tried on a really cute dress here but part of the hem had come undone. I grabbed another in my size and bought it. (yes stupid I now realize)
When I got home and tried it on it was a completely different size! The people at the store basically didn’t care wouldn’t give me the number to contact the designer and I now own an expensive and completely unwearable dress. Thanks Hottie!

This stores name is perfect as you’ll definitely find something hot looking to wear here that’s sexy yet flattering and stylish. This is a new store that sells women’s clothes and accessories. The owner Lili helped me pick out a great silky black sleeveless top with black, red, and white flowers on it with a black rope like design on top.
I choose a sleeveless black and white sheer flowy baby doll like top and a fitted low cut sleeveless medium sized leopard print shirt. Since I bought three things, she reluctantly gave me all three items for around $ 80.00. Woo hoo! It helps if you pay in cash and have small bills. I tried to break a $ 100.00 bill but couldn’t.
The prices for the clothes there were on the pricey side, but Lili made me a deal. Most of the store owners will offer you a discount on the marked price if you ask on Melrose Ave since many of them tend to carry the same or similar items so competition is high. Sadly, many of the shops I once shopped at have gone out of business due to this crappy economy. Check this place out if you live around the area and tell your friends about this place! Help keep it open!
