My favorite local consignment shop. Staff are lovely, and I always find something special (and well priced) when I shop here.

Small consignment shop. Several pairs of Fluevogs but I didn't have room in my carry-on. Staff was nice

I have entrusted 2 pairs of boots - knee high and ankle boots (brand names in pristine condition) to Colette's shop. They did not sell for 6 months. End of season she half priced one and paid me pennies. I have requested to obtain the second pair back. She refuse to returned them to me. We agree to obtain them a week later. When I came back she declared them sold and gave me 23 dollars for them. That is how she is taking advantage of the items entrusted to her and being disloyal to her clients.P.S. Every time I give her my family name spelled she told me I do not need to do that as she is an exellent speller. My name have variation with e in the end or without. I have been just trying to be helpful.Unpleasant place to be which left a bitter aftertaste. Stay away.

Good quality preloved clothes. Not your average consignment shop - well above. Comfortable stylish well made clothing. Linens (lots!), cottons, just my style. Friendly helpful service.

I brought a dress in for Wendy to sell on consignment last summer. She said she would take it and to come back in six weeks to see if it had sold, as she was going to switch to autumn clothes then. I asked if I should be signing a contract and she said no. That should have been a red flag for me right there. But instead I gave her my business card and the dress and left the store, not feeling right about it. I went back in six weeks, and she didn't know what I was talking about, and said she wouldn't have taken any clothes without me signing a contract. She finally found my name written in her book, but had no idea where the dress was or even if she had it. She told me to come back in a week. I came back and she still said she didn't know anything about it. I described the dress in detail, but she was just very curt with me. Wendy took my phone number again, and said she would call me when she found it. Well, of course she never called me. I never got my $250 dress back nor did I get paid for it. I felt I couldn't push it as there was no contract and she kept denying she had the dress. I have learned from that - always get it in writing, but I feel as though she stole my dress from me. I would never bring anything there on consignment again and would warn anyone who wants to bring anything there. I won't even shop there again, as she is unprofessional, disrespectful, and rude.

It is a small shop but the owner is incredibly friendly and her collection is cute! I did a vintage shop tour to all the shops around this location and love this little shop the best. Price right and feel welcomed!

I found a piece at Colette's that I loved, but I found a stain on the garment that looked very permanent. I was heartbroken, but Wendy (owner) went the extra mile. She returned the garment to the maker (local entrepreneur) who completely removed the stain, handling all the back and forth until it was returned to the shop like brand new. I've never had such outstanding service from a clothing shop. I highly recommend Colette's for anyone on the North Shore looking for interesting unique clothing. Thanks Wendy!

An older woman with short brown hair and bangs working here today (Aug 28th, 2021) was body shaming her customers. One lady pointed to a dress she liked, and the worker said, "maybe let's start with a dress that will fit you." Another young girl was about to try on a pair of pants, and the worker said, "you do realize that those are a size zero?" The girl pointed out very kindly that the tag said they were a size 8. The worker rudely asked if she looked at the waistline and aggressively told her that she's been doing this for 35 years. The store is tiny, so everyone could hear her commenting on these women's bodies. This store is not worth your time or money.

Wendy still owes me money !! I had two items that she still didn't give me my commission for: a Le Chateau grey faux fur collar and a black Mystic dress she hasn't paid me for since 2016!!Her best friend Paula would come to Turnabout on West Broadway where I worked...and would tell me lots of private things about Wendy... What kind of best friend is that?!I just want my money, that rightfully belongs to me.

I was shocked going in here. The two workers were not wearing masks, not social distancing from customers, and there wasn’t any hand sanitizer at the door. There was plexi glass at the till. You’d think that in a pandemic that protocols would be in place as it’s the law...
