Francesca’s Collections

I have to give a big shout out to the manager, Elise! I had a situation with my purchase and she handled it quickly and was really nice! I love everything in the store and can’t wait to go back.

Visiting family in So Cal for Thanksgiving, we decided to go to Universal Studios and after all the lines, everyone coughing around me, and the dip in temperature that night I felt like I was going to get sick. I was starting a new job when I returned home on Monday and knew I needed to go shopping before then, but feeling a bit run down I didn’t think I was up for it. Then I passed Francesca’s and said how cute the window display was. My boyfriend insisted we go in and even though I put up a small fight I went in and wanted to try on everything. I asked the sales associate if she could help put together the outfit that was in the window. Jovanna, was great and even accessorized everything she pulled down for me. I ended up leaving with a bunch of stuff! PS they have 50% off their boots right now! Scored some cute suede ankle zip up boots. The ladies working here were super nice, and it was really appreciated during a time when everyone is shopping and being super needed. Thanks girls!

This place literally saved my life!!!
I was attending a black tie, Oscar event at the Globe Theater at Universal Studios and as unpredictable as SoCal weather is, I didn’t bother to bring a shawl or jacket– nada!
So, my friend and I walked CitiWalk for a bit and stumbled across this store… I would call it a mix of Anthropologie meets Urban Outfitters… and, bamm– sure enough, they had 1 shawl that was dressy enough for my red carpet gala.
So, thank you Francesca’s… you kept me from catching a cold & keeping the glam all night!

I checked out this place when I was at Universal Studios City Walk.
It was quite quaint and really interesting.
There was some clothing scattered around the small shop, in the sort of «pay a lot to look this cheap» sort of aspect, (think American Apparel,) but it was cute.
Anyway, I was paying attention to the cool novelty items they had around — little French-​styled books, stationery, card packs, magnets, jewelry, useless «first world problems» tools, humorous books, pins, and a lot of other things that kept me and my friend amused when we were window shopping.
Customer service was pretty good. I wanted to know what was inside the cards, so she actually opened them up for me for them to be displays. (She was probably curious about it too.)
Definitely worth checking out if you’re ever in the City Walk.
