Intermix

My husband and I usually drop by Montecito Country Mart when we’re in town to shop at the little pet store, George, which sells our dog’s favorite squeaky toys. Since Intermix is between George and the parking lot, and since I enjoy some quick window shopping, I’ve been to this store a few times over the last couple years.
Intermix is a fancy boutique chain that sells contemporary women’s designer clothing and accessories. I’ve run across a few locations in different cities and will generally stop in if I’m passing by on foot. It’s also online, and I’ll browse there once in a while, too. The stuff is really cute and really expensive, so I have a good time looking but rarely buy.
The Montecito store is small and pretty, well organized with a pleasant vibe. The staff is attractive and friendly. The last time I stopped in, I actually bought something – there was an after-​Thanksgiving promotion where sale items were an additional 40% off, so I got a Rails chambray shirt dress. I also tried on a pink crop top and realized there’s a reason I’ve never worn pink crop tops before.
I’m in Montecito a few times a year and will probably continue to visit the Intermix in conjunction with the pet store. If the clothes were as cheap as the squeaky toys, I’d leave with shopping bags every time.
