“My daughter helped me discover this gem by giving me a gift certificate for my birthday. I went with her at least six months later, and was so charmed by our experience. The range and quality of the fragrances made the trip in worth it. Then, the whimsical environment just made it feel like a magical experience. The owner did not disappoint in this regard, and is very knowledgeable about the scents and their combinations. She patiently supported us (without stalking) while we painstakingly smelled (discovered) every fragrance in each beautiful bottle, then she helped us create our own oil roller and lotion tin using our two favorite scents — which have lasted over a year and still smell good enough to be a staple in my purse.
And the prices… let you know she’s been there a long time and is doing it for the love. Total gem! Love this shop! Planning to go back soon.”
“Eloisa at Bay Thread is an exceptional collaborator for anyone looking to bring an apparel project from idea to reality. I’ve been consistently impressed by her pattern-making expertise, attention to detail, and thoughtful approach to solving design challenges. I came to Eloisa with a few atypical manufacturing considerations, and from the beginning she was a great thought partner—offering clear guidance and strategy so that her final patterns and tech packs translated my design ideas into something production-ready. Beyond her pattern-making skills, she has strong relationships with local Bay Area manufacturers, creating a clear path to production that she manages from start to finish. I would absolutely work with Bay Thread again on my next project.”
“This is the place that I’ve been longing for unique design, fantastic quality ample variety clothings. I am amazed by the look of myself trying on the styles that I had never thought about before. The tiny little things that I would mind is the parking is not so convenient, but it won’t be a problem if you go during the day.”
“Whenever I shop at Lilac I find an amazing selection of casual, formal and workwear for all ages, shapes and sizes for both Men and Women. I am always welcomed by friendly staff and have found beautiful pieces of clothing that last and are dear to me. Shopping locally in Alameda feels great but even better with this gem of a store that has served this town for many years.”
“I was happy to find a decent selection of black slacks and men's button-ups for my daughter's new job. I wish we had more time to browse but they were closing. I'll be paying this spot another visit soon. They have a good-sized houseware department too.”
“Clean, organized store with friendly staff. You can try on as many items of clothing in the fitting rooms as possible which is so nice they even have these cool screens that detect what clothes you have any tell you prices and other info such as color availability. Lots of items on sale.”
“Best customer service very helpful respectful clean store I had a little problem with it’s my Ross card she guided me step by step how to do the process come here they are helpful and nice LOVE and luisa”

“There are interesting esoteric books on various types of magic and spells. There are also books on Tarot cards and different Tarot decks. Crystals are very interesting, but the selection is limited. Very friendly people will help you on anything you need.”
