Skyblupink

So sorry this store is closed. Every time I think of shopping for something unique and interesting, I remember that this place is gone. I am not a Mall person and this store had great items that cannot be found in one place in another store. Wish it was open online.

This boutique is cool, hip, and trendy if you’re a teenager.
Lots of flamboyant knick-​knacks including fad clothing, funky jewelry, accessories, and even furniture in the most gawdy colors imaginable. The quality of items is just average and pricey. Don’ expect them to last.
Service is snobby… staff won’t put out any effort to make you feel welcomed. They will help if you looked interested in something.
Mostly wear once, throw away items.

This store has lots of sparkly, bright things to lure you in – it happens to me every time. The clothes are eh, but the wallets, purses and knick knack-​type things are pretty enticing.
I’ve never bought anything there. Would I, if I had expendable income? Hand over some cash and we can test that theory out.

This store has a lot of cute items including clothes, accessories and home furnishings. I’ve purchased many items for myself and for gifts here.
The downsides:
1) Parking can be a pain
2) The staff is kind of rude. I’ve never been greeted or acknowledged unless I’m at the counter buying something.

Two years in a row I bought my girlfriend a new purse from here (original, I know) and two years in a row these purses disintegrated within months and became unusable.
Don’t get me wrong, the store has some cool looking and kitschy stuff. but it’s only for looks. Don’t buy things you expect to last.
The prices are a little too high for the value you get from the products.

I was in Burbank for a business event last week & I had actually never been there before. After the morning event, I decided to check out downtown Burbank, since driving in there were quite a few windows that caught my eye. Boy, I didn’t know what I had been missing!
Downtown Burbank is really cute … & Skyblupink is by far my favorite part of it! This shop has tons of super cute, unique, reasonably priced gifty things. I walked in and was like «I love this» … and that didn’t stop at the door. They have great bags, clothes, jewelry, housewares & more. All items are really well selected. My only complaint is that they don’t have a website. Oh well, it gives me an excuse to go back to Burbank! I will definitely be heading back here to shop for holiday gifts this year, even if it is an hour and a half from my house in LA traffic. I saw something for everyone on my list!

Oh, Skyblupink. How you never fail me. I start off by saying that I have been a customer of Celeste and her husband’s (whose name is currently escaping me) since they owned Cloud 10 – a cute little boutique just down the road from their current location – since I was a young teenager… so I might be a little biased.
That said… this store literally never fails me. Whether I’m shopping for my mother, my cousin, or my best friend, I always find exactly what I’m looking for. They have very unique accessories and my favorite brand of watch (Tokyo Bay) which I haven’t seen too many other places. It is one of my staple gift stores that I hit when in LA. For a unique gift, especially for a gal with a funky flare, you can’t go wrong and won’t leave empty-​handed.

This shop is one of the reasons why me & my friends come to downtown Burbank. That and also the fact that there is a newish parking garage that is free and always has space.
There are so many one of a kind knick knacks here, it is the perfect place to buy gifts. So I always buy a gift here for the person who I know the best: ME.
Last time I was here I bought one of those sugar skull rings. I forgot the name of the brand, they are local and they have them by the register. This time I got a very cool Tshirt marked down from $ 44 to $ 21. Score.
I hope my friends buy me presents from here for Xmas (are you reading this my SoCal buddies?) because I like stuff from this shop. I find the prices are fairly reasonable too!

love this store!
One of the cutest stores that I’ve ever been.
It’s a place that you can find something the least typical and unique for you or for your friends.
Purses, jewelry, jade talismans, Buddhist related souvenirs, clothes, shoes, wallets and many other stuff; you’ll discover a world of different and cute gifts for a person that you care and you want to make an impression with your gift.
I’ve been customer of this place for many years now, and every once in a while when I visit, I always find something interesting to buy or get for a gift.
They have handmade jewelry from Latin America &/​or Africa (at least the last time I was there they had these). They also have (a bit overpriced) abstract design silver jewelry with beautiful chunky stones, my type! (amber, turquoise, coral, mother of pearl etc.)
In a nutshell it’s the perfect place to find the perfect gift!
give it a try ;)

With out much to do in Burbank, you are forced to wander up and down San Fernando aimlessly until the sun sets and the cops kick you out because of the curfew. Well I would always wander aimlessly into this shop. I rarely bought anything, the prices are pretty damn high, but wow the stuff is so cool in here!
It’s a great place for birthday presents: vinyl record clocks, incense, cute pet supplies, fun jewelry, but pretty mediocre clothes. I’ve bought maybe two tops here and that’s about it. A little too girly for my taste.
They always play really awesome music and have the cds on sale up front. It’s like Parisian lounge music ahaha so good!

Ok, I admit, I cant afford a lot of the things in the place, but love going in nonetheless. My daughter always makes sure we make a stop «at the pink store» because the ladies are so nice to her, and she likes to step on the platform in the center, pretending shes boarding a trip for france. (I mention this cause even though there are signs all over advising not to touch this or that and curb your kids, they are still very kid friendly). And you know what? Why WOULDNT those signs be there? The stuff seems like its more art than anything… its like a trip thru a modern art gallery.
The last few times I went in, I noticed that one of the dressing rooms in the back had been converted to a «sale» room… Ive gotten adorable boots for $ 10, and other little items that were marked down to reasonable prices.
The gals are nice, though the older gentleman (possibly the owner) always seems a little stress. They always say hello and have been very sweet. Even if Im just buying a candle, and not spending a chunk.
Basically, if you need a gift for an un-​shoppable person, or a person with expensive taste, or just want something more Melrose than Burbank, Id stop in to Sky Blue Pink…

I love the jewelry they carry here! I’m a sucker for stuff that’s sorta funky and fresh, but still classy (who says classy has to be boring?).
I don’t know how «unique» all their pieces are b/​c I know I can find some of the lines at other stores (like Something Silver, for instance), so every time they tell me how «special» all their pieces are, I take it with a grain of salt. But if I like it, I’ll buy it. If you’re buying a piece b/​c someone says it’s «one-​of-​a-​kind,» I’d say you’re buying it for the wrong reason.
I love all the seriously random (useless) crap they have! Definitely a place to shop for fun gifts for those people who have everything!
Their prices are slightly inflated, but they seem to have stuff discounted frequently. Once, my gf found a ring she wanted, and asked if there were any discounts on it. The woman at the register said that it wasn’t really on sale, but she gave her a small discount anyways. They seemed to be pretty nice about it, and it totally made my gf’s day!

One thing I love love love about California is the abundance of unique little boutique style stores. Skyblupink doesn’t disappoint.
From the moment I stepped into this LollipopLand of mechandise I had a smile on my face. There was no shortage of things that I wanted either for myself or as a gift. The colors and décor were wonderfully inviting and most of it was wonderfully for sale!
This will be the first place I shop for gifts to send back home or just for any ol’ fun little something I want for myself.
OH! and the gal working the store was so nice. She didn’t look at me like I was a chore. Which seems rare to come by in this state.
This shopping experience earns four stars only because of the prices. Seemed just a tad inflated, but some of the items would be hard to find elsewhere, so probably worth it.

I have the world’s worst ID picture.
(those of you who’ve seen it can attest to that)
It’s gotten many a double-​take, and «boy, you must have been tired/​hungover/​cracked out» comment. This time however, I got the nicest compliment ever. The saleswoman told me I was way prettier in person. Now I know could have just been kissing my ass and all… but I liked it. We talked about Chicago winters and how I didn’t mind them, and she recommended I check out the Downtown Burbank area more for fun things to do.
Ass kissing that makes me feel nice automatically gets a star from me.
The store is filled with some damn cute things, mostly too rich for my poor blood but cute none the less. It’s a great place to find gifts for people that are hard to shop for. What do you get a girl that has everything? Well, I bet she doesn’t have a «Clone My Cat Fund» money tin. Its also a great place for crafty bitches to get inspired to make things like jewelry, newspaper bags and clothes.

This is one of those great «what the hell do i get them?» stores.
I’ll admit I’m not a big fan of the clothing — I feel like they’re marked up versions of stuff you can find anywhere, but it’s really the jewelry/​housewares/​knick-​knacks that shine here. There’s a ton of variety, and you can always find that one slightly trendy and a bit obscure piece that will perk up your entire room. And because I’m a girly girl — the jewelry is quite cute, and the bag selection is generally fabulous (yes, I said fabulous. Sue me).
The prices can be a bit steep on some of the items, but some of these things you’re not going to find many other places. Definitely a great gift place, whether that gift is for your grandmother, best friend, or even yourself.

SkyBluePink feels like a store that mistakenly (or conveniently) got placed in Downtown Burbank when it would much better fit on Melrose.
The feel of this place is uncomfortable. The clothes are overpriced. The materials of the clothing is of pretty low quality, and the sales associates here are a little too «exclusive». The shoes are pretty cool, but I’m nearly certain the heels would collapse shortly after purchase.
I must also mention the smell of this place. It reeks. I don’t know if it’s because the clothing is of such low grade that its’ smell permeates the store, but it’s unpleasant.
The final thing I have to say is the décor straight-​up creeps me out. The manequins look like clowns-​gone-​trendy. This only adds to the look and feel of this place being in a circus tent.

Super-​cute and an eye-​candy of a store. I really enjoy perusing their stock when I’m in the neighborhood. They’ve got batches of jewelry work from many independent artists, but certainly not as much as Handmade in Sherman Oaks.
The price range is a from barely moderate to pricey. However, the lady that helped me there when I purchased a modern day cuckoo clock (cubed mirrored veneered box with white hour and minute hands with a robin cutout rockin back and forth on top and two stationary wooden pendulums hanging) was a gem. The clock was priced at 70 bucks, so I debated a bit and upon my hesitation, the lady understood and offered me a better deal at $ 60! I couldnt believe the generousity from a seemingly well-​to-​do boutique store.
I took the clock home and was sad when I realized it had been knocked in from the top and the glass top was dipped in and cracked upon packaging. I immediately took it back the next day and was helped by a new gal. With their humble apologies she offered to retrieve a new clock for me. Well, figuring to strike the iron while it’s hot I offered to buy the clock still for a discount, she called the owner and he offered another 20 bucks off. I said yes, as I figured with my handyness I could easily fix the piece. So, I got this nifty clock for $ 35 in the end.
Sweet place, good service, great gift prospects.

A stroll down San Fernando Boulevard next to Urban is a cozy pink storefront with the best mannequins with their joker like grins in the display windows, welcoming you to come in and browse.
Last Christmas I came here knowing I could score some unique gifts for friends and co-​workers. Gems like coin purses that read «Being Rich is Awesome», fair trade bracelets and wool scarves, recycled journals that donate a portion of sales to animal conservations (do good while you shop!), miso pretty asian inspired printed shopper bags, yummy smelling soy candle sets, etc. There is not a huge variety of things to choose from but it’s about quality, not quantity, right? Prices are on the moderate side, but not overly so that it makes you want to run for the door. If you’re willing to pay a little more for something unique, then you’ll find something here. Mostly it’s gifts for the fairer sex, dogs, kids, and babies. I was able to cover all of the above on my list and left, $ 300+ dollars lighter with my white gift bags with lime green tissue paper in tow.

My preferred place to shop on San Fernando.
(I say screw Urban Outfitters!) But that’s just me ;)
lol

There’s hope ladies and gentlemen! Hope that the massive efforts being made by the little city of Burbank to cool and hipdify it may actually be working! At least I think they are after popping into Skyblupink. I cruised in here a few months ago and couldn’t remember the name of it til today, but man did I score some amazing goods here.
First was the cherry red alligator patent leather artist portfolio. This thing is art in and of itself and I have never seen anything like it before. I’ve only used it a few times in meetings, but lemme tell ya, it’s an eye catcher and screams «Yeah, I rule!» I also scored two oh so very cool necklaces along with a belt that is too cute for words and certainly not what you would expect to find in Burbankian territory.
Now that the Urban Outfitters is here, it makes sense that more and more stores in the hip vein are finding their way to the SFR strip, but for the record this store was here pre-​UO and it kicks far more ass in this shopaholics opinion!
Check it out, cute, original stuff from boutique level designers and know one will believe you when you say, «Oh yeah, I got this in Burbank,» hence no threat to your new secret store!
