I love ALL the selections, the personal service you get, always fresh and new arrivals. I am so lucky to be able to work close to Rust and get an outfit when I need it, for ANY occasion. The owner is WONDERFUL and really takes pride in her store. And it shows. Thank you xo.

I have been shopping at rust for several years now and love what this small local business has to offer. First, the owner, Alice, is always very kind and helpful with finding the most beautiful clothing and things that specifically fit my body type. She is always patient with me and gives me multiple options that she feels would fit me both in color and in shape. As someone that has a hard time knowing if things are flattering to my body, she is always honest in helping me find the perfect fit. I love all of the different things she personally selects for the store, and her style is gorgeous. I feel very strongly that it is so important to be shopping locally and supporting small businesses in the current retail paradigm, and I absolutely recommend this boutique. I will certainly continue to support the vision at Rust and to recommend to my friends and family.

Love the selection at this local boutique! Alice and all the employees are super kind and helpful. Brands I love include Mother denim, Spell, and Mumu!! The Barlow area is such a nice place to shop around and eat, I always make a stop at Rust when I’m there.

Rust absolutely slaps! Bought some funky digs for my red hot momma’s birthday. Not only did she love what I got her but she went back to the store and bought like 10 more items. Owner Alice rocks - so friendly, took the time to listen and look at pics to help me pick out the perfect gift ??

This place is a hidden gem! I had a personal styling session with the owner for my birthday and got so many compliments on my outfits. I'm not great with clothes or how to put them together but Alice made it so easy and fun!

I found the store online before finding it in person. Alice, the owner, does fun pick of the weeks on Instagram and will ship. Worth the follow. But do not miss the chance to come in to the boutique when at The Barlow and let Alice style you. She helped me to put a wardrobe together for a trip to Europe with looks for everything on my itinerary. Since then, I have entrusted Alice to help me find the key pieces each season to balance out what I already have in my wardrobe and ensure I always have the right look for the occasion that is completely on trend. She is so warm and has such a keen eye--you will feel like you are shopping with a girlfriend. Best accessories to finish the style (I get complimented all the time!) Alice brings NYC fashion to West Sonoma and has built such a loyal clientele. Your new favourite.

Be careful when shopping here. Alice the owner is not only incredibly mean she refuses to stand behind her products. I exchanged a pair of jeans for another size and she told me like 3 times that I didn't buy them there. I was confused and understand sometimes people are having a bad day so kept showing her my receipt exchanged the jeans and left. Also she has all receipts in her computer system and could see I have spent thousands at her store and have actually never exchanged or returned anything there. A few weeks later the jeans ripped in a weird spot, I have multiple pairs of Mothers and have never had that happen. Asked her for some help if she can reach out to her Mothers rep. She kept blowing me off until she finally said her Mothers rep can't help and so she's done taking my calls, with the way she has treated me I am assuming she's going out of business or I recommend she find someone else to handle her client relationships. I spoke to Mothers and they have a 1 year warranty and helped me very kindly get a new pair. I love to support and shop local but I will never spend a dime at this place again.
