Mimo and Paulette made my day of shopping, extraordinary. All unique, stylish and eclectic fashion - all in one shop. The one outfit I wore, the next day, complete with jewelry made me happy and...solicited inquiries and compliments. Thank you! Returning with friends...

I am not a regular shopper at Rue de Mimo; only several times a year. I stopped in the shop Friday late morning and was greeted by a pleasant associate who told me about the details of the winter sale. She pointed out that sale product is sized and that some items were 70% off and some 50% off. I thanked her and proceeded to browse. I like to support local retail as much as I can. I found a sweater that had several markdowns. The last markdown read $35, yet the ticket also read 70% off. The original price had been $105 which meant the sweater should have been marked $31.50. I pointed this out to who I assumed was the owner and she was. This woman became quite aggressive and insisted 70% off was $35 and and then said, she didn't have time to calculate to the penny and I replied, this is dollars and the principal of the matter. She abruptly said she would let me have the sweater for $31.50. She never apologized or took responsibility for the error. Never said thank you for purchasing in her shop. I had a 45 year retail career and serving the customer with respect and honesty should always be the priority. I was very disappointed in her lack of service and do not plan to support her shop in the future.

A wonderful place. I discovered this place by shopping next door at Marz and then realized I knew this shop when they were on Fair Oaks. I was there to buy gifts and realized it was the perfect place for them. Hard to go wrong with their selection. An incredible eye the owner(s) have. Incredible eye and aesthetic. Well done. I was welcomed by Mimo and the woman assisting me, Sweden(?), was so wonderful to work with.

Mimo is fabulous; I treasure each moment we visit and share life while she and Paulette are creating a delicious wardrobe full of class, colors, and fabrics which make me feel confident and ready to embrace all of life's adventures from the routine to the celebratory events. Highly recommend a trip to Rue De Mimo for yourself, a shopping spree for your darling daughter, or a special gift for a friend, board member, or birthday celebration!

This store has a unique, funky vibe. Shop here if you don't want to match all of the women in Pasadena. Great personal service and personable sales people.

One of our great stay-at-home and discover your own city finds! I can reliably find something my wife will love. Unique, funky designs at reasonable prices for the quality. I love chatting with the owners, warm delightful ladies who know their stuff.

After supporting this store for many years I was callled "small minded"by the owners. This happened after expressing my concern regarding an uncomfortable experience in one of their dressing rooms. Their initial response was that they could not control what other people did in their store, when all I needed was an apology and acknowledgment that what happened to me was wrong. It makes it clear to me that one's ethnicity and physical appearance has an impact on how you are treated in this store.

Rue de Mimo is my very favorite boutique for artistic clothing that is never found on line or in mass market stores. Beyond the unique selection of clothes, shoes and jewelry, Mimo and Paulette make shopping fun!

I don't shop anywhere else anymore. Come to Rue de Mimo, spend an afternoon with the ladies, have a blast putting together beautiful outfits, and buy a whole new wardrobe. You'll get endless compliments and (most importantly) have fun getting dressed in the morning! It's a new you! Their clothes, jewelry, and shoes are exquisite, affordable, comfortable, unique, and chic. Take the plunge and welcome this wonderful shop into your life. You won't regret it!

I plan to travel to Senegal wearing pants I bought awhile ago at Rue de Mimo. I returned to Rue de Mimo to look for a top that would not only go with the pants but that would be appropriate for West Africa. So who helps me find the perfect two tops? A lovely woman - Elizabeth - who is (drum roll) actually from West Africa! I am totally convinced that Rue de Mimo is a magic place.

Just discover this magical boutique. I walked in and was greeted by a lovely, extremely stylish woman. We chatted as she pulled me some beautiful garments to try on. Bought 3! The store is beautifully curated, very chic pieces. Very flattering for any body type. Sophisticated, whimsical, creative fashion. Very European. Tre' Chic

Not very welcoming. Yes I came in my work clothes (scrubs) but they're the nice expensive bougie brand and they matched my shoes and I was slinging my brand name purse and yet the sales lady looked at me up and down like I didn't belong? I just lost almost 15 pounds and wanted to treat myself but due to the dirty look she gave me I decided to leave shortly after. Is it cause I look young or because I look Hispanic? Not sure but won't be back. Two stars for the fun eccentric shirts

Do you watch Grace and Frankie? If so and if you prefer Lily Tomlin's hippie boho look to Jane Fonda's tailored modern look you will love Mimo. The clothes are unique and artsy. Most of the things I saw were shapeless by design ,a bit like Hache or Comme does Garçons, at a fraction of the price. They can look very hip and cool or sloppy and weird. Depends on your body so try them on... If your style icons tend to run minimalist,like Audrey Hepburn or Jackie O, you won't like it here.
