Scarborough Fair

"I live in a part of the country where there aren't very many stores that sell quality, high end clothing so when I need to look my best, I turn to some of my favorite online shops. Kat at Scarborough Fair provided me with one of the best shopping experiences I had since I bought my wedding dress. I am so impressed! I was captivated by a very unusual blouse by Filippo Grandulli ("crushed white blouse"). It has an asymmetrical hem, and a dramatic collar that buttons at an angle. I had questions on how it would fit so I sent an email to the shop, and Kat responded ASAP, first with an email, then a text, and then actually called me because I had more questions. Not only was I on the line with Kat (who was not physically in the store at the time), but also her assistant who was actively measuring the blouse to provide me with the info I needed. LOL, is that amazing or WHAT?!? Kat also gave very good advice on how to style the blouse and after the blouse was delivered, she followed up via email to make sure I was pleased! I am speechless about the service. Speechless. I didn't feel like I was buying FROM them, I really felt like I was shopping WITH them. That blouse, plus a Magnolia Pearl number that I ordered at the same time, were delivered promptly. They were carefully wrapped in beautiful tissue with a little fabric flower as a finishing touch. I felt like it was my birthday when I opened the box. I am so happy with Scarborough Fair, and encourage anyone who might be on the fence about ordering from them to take the plunge. It was a great experience!"

"I discovered this beautiful boutique several years ago while shopping online. I was so happy to find Kat and her boutique! She and her staff provide such wonderful customer service and I appreciate that Zoom is available as well. I have bought several pieces of Magnolia Pearl clothing from the boutique - items are lovingly packaged, shipping is quick, and correspondence is top notch - the only wish I have is I that wish I lived closer so I could see Kat’s boutique in person as well as meet Kat and her staff. Treat yourself and take a looksie either in person or shop their well appointed website! You won’t be disappointed!!"

"I recently ordered a lovely multi colored Margaret Winter sweater from the Scarborough Fair Shop. I ordered it in a larger than needed size and Katheryn the owner helped to get me the correct size. She was patient and supportive through the process assuring I was happy with the fit and process. I often love just looking through their online merchandize for unique styles and designers not found elsewhere. There is a freshness and variety of model types that allows you to dream about adventure and fun occasions ahead. Actually I have found two sweaters in my size I could not find elsewhere. And the service experience because of the size and owner desire has been a white glove one that is not found elsewhere. Thank-you Katheryn!"

"I LOVE THIS SHOP!!! The customer service is amazing and their inventory is truly diverse. I’ve made a few purchases from here and will continue to do business with them. Katheryn is incredibly knowledgeable and a genuinely kind person. If you are looking for quality clothing for a fair price, look no further!"

"This St. Paul, MN women’s boutique shop offers a unique collection of vintage and designer clothes that is unlike anything else in the Twin Cities. This beautiful shop offers several one-of-a kind hats and clothing items. Her selection of shawls, scarfs (the fabrics sumptuous and richly colored), beaded fringe jackets, leggings, and shoes is simple exquisite. Katheryn Menaged, the owner, has a strong sense of style and offers a true opinion when asked how she assesses an item’s fit on a shopper. I took a guest with me this week and we both felt that she genuinely listens to what we are looking for and wants us to be comfortable in the long with our purchases. Clothing items range from wonderful pieces for everyday to just-what-I-need for a special occasion. I was quite surprised in the midst of many richly feminine pieces to discover one of my favorite business suits ever. I am not model size, so to find a special shop like this that includes larger sizes is absolutely wonderful. After months of window shopping during evening strolls with a friend, I became an avid fan after my first visit inside years ago. You’ll want to catch her annual Hats, Horses & High Tea spring event. Millinery from Karen Morris and The Cha-Cha's House of Ill Repute are the strongest draw for me. This week, Kat held an Artist’s Reception for Patricia Canney. I will include a photo of her fabulous rendition of the red pair of shoes someone once left behind. Even if you aren’t in a need to purchase anything just now, this is a place for fun and gather ideas for clothing pairings."
