“I do not live in Florida but follow Pineapple Lain's social media pages and have noticed they have made some really great changes to their inventory. I suddenly find myself wanting almost everything they post about; the clothing is adorable! I recently placed an order through the Pineapple Lain web site for a pair of jeans and a romper. Both arrived quickly and are even nicer than I expected. The quality is phenomenal! I sometimes worry about ordering clothes online because I don't have time to deal with returns. But I have to say - the two items I ordered fit perfectly, are super flattering, and I could not be happier. I will also say that my package arrived with instructions on what to do if I was NOT happy with my items, and wanted to return them. This is rare ... and exceptional delivery of customer service. I highly recommend this shop and will definitely be ordering again!”

“Went in with my boyfriend to find him some shoes right after a couple days after Christmas. As we walked through the mall, most store associates were totally drained from the holidays but Bri really took her time in helping us find a pair of shoes. Unfortunately, the shoes we originally wanted were out of stock in-store and online; however, Bri really took her time and went above and beyond to help us find the next perfect shoe. She was eager to help, offered good opinions, and was a light in the dark abyss that is post-Christmas shopping. Someone give this lady a raise!”
“Johnston & Murphy delivers a quality, premium product. This store has the best customer service, and the manager, Jason, has made me a customer for life by the wonderful display of service he has shown me.
If there ever was a model for perfect customer service, Jason is the one to display that.
Come and visit and you won’t be disappointed!”

“Went there for some custom company shirts, and they asked if wanted bourbon! So I of course think this places is instantly awesome ?! Plus great sizing options for picking out consistent shirts fits. Great experience great staff”
“We happened upon this sweet boutique and met Kristin, the owner. Not only is the place filled with unusual eye catching items but Kristin is pure joy to chat with. Don’t miss checking out this little shop when visiting Siesta Village!”
“I have passed this place countless times and laughed at the name. And then I thought it was a hair salon. Up until I walked past it a few days ago did I know it was an upscale women’s boutique. If you remember the high pressure, 80s style sales tactics of commissioned sales people who worked in general merchandise stores back in the day, you will be used to the type of women who work in this place. Immediately upon walking in I noticed lots of staff on the floor. And they hover. And they watch. And they suggest clothing on you. It can be very offputting if you are used to shopping online or if you want to shop at your leisure. They have great merch and a lot of my fave brands (David Kline, Blanc Noir, Liverpool) so don’t let all the old ladies’ wear up front turn you off. Walk to the back of the store and up the steps. They have an impressive evening and formal gown selection. I managed to find an outfit and a pair of shoes. I wish the ladies worked here would pump the brakes and not be such hovercftarts. Relax, you’ll get credit for the sale, don’t worry. Just please let me shop in peace.”
“I found this incredible store while visiting my daughter in Sarasota. I fell in love with this unique and charming boutique! I bought a whole new wardrobe!! My friends back home are so jealous of my new look But seriously, beautiful clothes in lovely pastels. I can’t wait to go back in the fall.”
“Always find the BEST stuff in here!! I was in yesterday and Maddie was so accommodating and helpful! Of course bought another outfit that I don’t need but am obsessed with. Dress pictured is not most recent purchase but I get soooo many compliments”
“Let me start by saying that journeys is not a store that comes to the top of my mind when I’m shoe shopping. Today, however I was on a mission to find a pair of double strap sandals for a trip I am going on next month. I knew that different brands made these including Birkenstock. I wasn’t having luck at other stores and I decided to walk into this store. I was immediately greeted by this young lady who said welcome in. A few short moments later, she came right up to me and asked if there was anything she could help me with. I told her what I was looking for, and she immediately took me over to the men’s section. It was there she showed me a beautiful selection in many different colors I might add of exactly what I was looking for! She asked what size shoe I wore and recommended going down in size since this particular Birkenstock only came in full sizes. When she brought them out, she was absolutely correct! I definitely needed to go down to a 9 and not go up to a 10. She even brought out a second pair in a different size just in case. She was right on point. They fit perfectly. It took me a few minutes to make the decision to go ahead and buy them because this is not a style of sandal I would usually purchase, however they looked great on. She explained that they would start off hard, and as I wore them, they would soften up and mold to my feet. I was sold! I took them and I am very pleased with my purchase. I am excited to wear these on my trip! I was very impressed with this young lady, she exceeded my expectations!”
“Though it be little, its fierce! I've shopped this location since its opening & ever after. We've shopped St.Armands which is 5x size but 1/4 personality. My mama is an islander local on SK, she shops weekly. We've seen a lot come & go over time. Prints & styles, people too. Watched employees who're there to dip toes in retail b4 they know what they'll want to do, b4 they sink or swim, all the way to the ones who're doing what they love for a company/culture that's engrained in them. Out of all the "seasons" I've never been so impressed & truly enamored by a Lilly employee. This store has a gem, she be little herself, but full in heart & mind with her knowledge & passion for this iconic brand. Her name is Madeline. She is a glowing, kind & genuine soul, smiling, walking rolodex of all seasons Lilly. All styles Lilly. Past & present. The lady knows all regular & repeat customers favorites, tastes, knows every single piece name, even for helping just the walk in first timer, future Lilly lover, shopper. She is knowledgeable for not just ladies, but men & littles too, which means so much bc I'm a mama & a wife, so I need help with them all. I'll call the store from states away & give her a pathetic description, within seconds she rattles off what i'm looking for, whether they have it, & if not sources the item for me! She's a walking billboard for Lilly's brand. She lives and represents the brand. Brains and beauty. Inside and out. Very professional! She could run the store blind folded, front end & back. Down to styling the mannequins to give customers inspiration for putting together whole looks. I honestly never thought someone was more meant for a career in this business. I've seen her walk circles around what her managers have tried helping me with. I've literally drop jawed @ watching her upper management asking her advice on basic Lilly info to assist me when they've approached me to ask if i need help. Makes me smile & hits home, because she's so young. it reminds me of where I started in my career, I worked in vet pharmaceuticals & ag. I was a female & youngest & nobody took a girl in my line of work seriously, but little did they know I grew up with fire & passion for the culture, people, & industry I was in. So I was more invested & more an asset because I was living out my passion! I feel a kindred soul with Madeline. I hope she is never taken for granted because of her age, size, or sex, because she is the secret ingredient to that location! So there's my two cents on the MVP of the siesta key store. But I won't leave out that Batman always has a Robin & Lilly Pulitzer herself, always had Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Well, if Madeline is Lilly, then Michelle is her Jackie O.! That lady is the happiest most soak it all up (learning Lilly) walking sunshine I've seen! I visit with kids & all in tow. She's always smiling & chatting my babies up. She's a retired teacher of over 25 years. What I'd call a whistle while you work kind of employee. She can be steaming dresses, folding & placing new inventory, but never misses a chance to talk with my children and my family. She looks so excited seeing us try on items like she's opening a gift on Christmas every time we come out of the dressing room to show her & Madeline our newest finds. My kids are 7 & 8, their whole life I've taken them everywhere shopping. Lilly SK's always been a place I knew they'd not fuss at having to go. Mostly in part to the fact they offer a kid's coloring table and coloring wall. Our last visit in the store I was saddened to see the new manager had removed all coloring utensils. Michelle saw how sad they were & quickly rectified the situation & made the kids day as well as this mama & gathered some crayons and coloring for them. That same day I overheard the store manager tellin”
“Although the people in the store are fantastic! They hire nice humans who try to be as helpful as possible. However this message is for corporate, please upgrade your checkout process! My goodness every customer stands at the desk for 10 minutes. Honestly you scan clothes and return things. Your check out process is the absolute worst!”
“Robert Graham at University Town Center in Sarasota is a great source for quality and stylish clothing that is unique. I really like the selection and variety of different options here. The staff here is very helpful and makes sure that you find exactly what you need. Good shopping experience here.”
