Pink Ice

what a freaking fake! my GF went here because there was a huge sign that says ’ EVERYTHING 50% off” she was excited to try on some clothes (as i wait outside the fitting rooms) and there were some girls looking around for some clothing looking really excited for the prices as well. Until one of them decided to ask one of the workers. if everything was really 50 off. The worker replied. «oh no! only the clothing behind the sign.» i was like, WTF that is straight up false advertising! no fine prints or misleading wording. straight up lie!

I love this store!
It’s great when you want a quick, cheap fix for clothing– like a Forever 21 or H&M. I bought a party dress for $ 40 that is really gorgeous actually! Great tops and sundresses too. Don’t turn your nose up at this store like I did for so long. You’ll be happy you gave it a chance, it’s worth it!

Love this store!!!
Very low priced and good quality for the low price point, amazing styles. I’m very picky and I have to say I liked almost everything I saw here, including the jewelry. The girl that owns it was sooo nice, talked to me for awhile, told me about her website, and let me pat her cuuute little dog.
I have to hit this spot more often.
As an aside, they had the most awesome music playing, too. Had to Shazam about 4 songs while I was there, lol.

Really great alternative to the normal huge chain stores. Selection changes about every two weeks and is definitely up to par with fashion. It’s a mix of different styles so you may not always find what you want but has a great selection of dresses and basics.

When at 3^rd St Promenade, head to Pink Ice for cute/​trendy clothes at a decent price!
I’ve gotten some of my favorite dresses and tops here. I almost always receive compliments when I wear them! The best part is that I never have to worry about someone else having the same thing, because this is their one and only store.
Shoppers beware, I’ve experienced RUDE salespeople, on more than one occasion. The last time I was here, the lady demanded to know if I was almost done looking because they were closing soon. She then proceeded to (seriously, I swear she did this) glare at me after stationing herself outside of the dressing room. Meanwhile several other people wandered in without being harassed for shopping. Hmph.
Damn them and their cute clothes. Even with such treatment I’ll still come back!

I absolutely LOVE Pink Ice! If you want something really stylish but on a budget… and you also want better quality than Forever21 or H&M, Pink Ice is a perfect store. I especially love their Machine Brand Jeans. They are affordable but the same quality as the expensive brand name jean. I’ve bought 2 pairs of jeans from there and they are my 2 favorite pairs of jeans! They are so comfortable and they don’t stretch out or shrink when you wash them!
I have to keep checking back because their style always change and the good stuff sells out pretty fast~!

I’ve been a huge fan of Pink Ice’s website, have ordered from their online store quite a few times and have never been disappointed… I come to find out that they have an actual store only a few miles from my house! It’s a tiny little store wedged inbetween Zara and Diesel (No wonder I’ve missed it.) So I go inside and there’s so much to see! I’m pleased to see that they carry items that they have online as well as a few unique styles that I haven’t seen on their website. Yes the customer service is crappy, but it doesn’t phase me since I don’t like to be bothered while I shop… but I do have to mention that the owner there is super sweet and welcoming. She pointed me to the sale section where I found 3 great t-​shirts for less than $ 10 each! Their return policy is a bit inconvenvient, but for what your paying, I really don’t mind, besides, they do have dressing rooms, you should try them on before you buy anything anyway. They definitely carry something for everybody. But for those who can’t make it out to the store their online store adds new merchandise almost everyday, so check that out. I give it a 4 star because I wish their store was bigger! ;)

This is always one of my favorite stores to stop by if I’m at the Promenade. They always have new things to look at and their window displays always draw me in. The prices are very reasonable and the quality is descent. If you’re the type of girl who loves having things that are more one of a kind this is your store! They have all the latest trendy stuff but throughout the store there are always a few pieces I find that I know I won’t find another chick. So that’s why I give it a full star review.
But one of the things I really enjoy about this store is their huge shoe selection! I love shoes and they have very reasonably priced trendy shoes that don’t look cheap! I would say they have over 50 styles to look through from sandals, flats, sneakers, boots, pumps etc. I’ve rarely seen a clothing store with such a variety of shoes. So this gives it a big plus for me!
Everyone keeps mentioning the customer service in here but honestly I never thought it was that bad. The employees always seem really busy so they’re just working hard?! But when I do ask for things that are high up they are more than friendly to help me out with that. Plus, I noticed a guy working at the register now but he’s really friendly and chats with all the customers. Anyway, if you haven’t checked this place out it’s a must!
Just recently checked out their website and it’s just as cute as the store. Thumbs up for me!

I love that this store carries a lot of styles that h&m and forever 21 do not have. It helps me feel a tad bit better knowing that not every lady in the world owns the same dress as I.
This location is quaint, and filled to the brim with cute clothes that range from $ 10-​$ 60 (at the most). I love the sale racks, the $ 10 biker shorts, and the cute dressing rooms which are conveniently located next to the shoes (you can see how short your dress will be with heels on, etc). The owner is sweet and always greets me with a smile, and even let me put two dresses on hold until the end of the day (I had left my debit card in the car, silly goose :])
All in all, love the store. The only reason it gets a 4 rating is because it’s hard to reach a lot of the clothes up high, and the associates are always busy somewhere else (The nerve of them to actually do their job, haha)

I got dragged in here by my cousin who’s visiting from another country. She loved the edgy variety of clothes and the bumpin music. She ended up spending what i thought would come out to about 100 bucks, but she only spent 65. Prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is fun and upbeat.

This store carries a lot of fun and vibrant clothing. There are really cute tops, dresses, etc. I haven’t looked at pants there too much but I did find a very nice pencil skirt there for only $ 19. I agree with another reviewer about how they carry clothes like Forever 21 but with better quality.
They do pack a lot of stuff in their tiny store so make sure you are ready to do some digging in the clothes rack.
Customer service is average. I think the first time I went, there’s was this lady who asked if I needed anything in the dressing rooms/​how the clothes fit, which was nice. The other times I went, they didn’t really bother to talk to me. I don’t really mind. The only thing I care about is that they are willing to help me when I ask for it, which they do.
Overall, it’s a good store with a lot of neat finds. I think they also have a website now where you can order, which is very convenient too.

This place always makes me feel good. Every time I go to the promenade I get lured in by the windows. This place is filled with goodies and I normally leave with something. It is like a better Forever 21 and the clothing ranges from cute to sexy. I normally go here to quench my style needs because they always have trendy styles.

Like Cynthia L, I also live on the other side of the country in Washington, DC. I ordered a few items last month and loved them. I also agree with many other reviewers, their stuff is like Forever21’s but a way better quality.
So why 3 stars? Well, I’ve been trying to visit their website again for over a week now… and it’s been down. If Cynthia L was having this issue back in May of 09, this problem must happen on and off often, which isn’t cool.

been coming here bout once a week or two this summer, n i love looking through this entire store. plenty of clothes to look through and better shoe section compared to forever21 (they have sandals, heels, boots, etc).
fitting room isnt a problem for me usually. they can maybe try to improve ont he customer service tho… like… have staff members that can speak fluent english. i went in one time and this fob chick didnt know wtf shipment meant and when i asked a question bout it she smiled a little n said no… which didnt answer my question at all… so i was like. aaaaah nvm forgettt itttt.
other than that the rest of the staff who CAN speak english are nice and love this place~
their website is pretty fun to look at too. i wish i saw some of the items that i saw online in stores cuz i dont want to pay for shipping…

You know the feeling when you’re broke, but you just want a new little something? This is a good place to check out.
It’s a very young store, but even us old gals would be able to find a cute little top to make us feel better.
The store is narrow, but they’re able to pack so much stuff in the little space.
And the customer service… well, it doesn’t really fit the fun, young vibe of the store.

I make it a point to stop by this place if I’m on 3^rd street. Usually I can find something unique and I really like.

I love this store! They have rows and rows of adorable clothes for girls, and I always walk away with something totally unique. The clothes are organized by color (or at least they were the last time I was there), which I think is pretty cool. They’re pretty girlie and fashionable, but you can find hip stuff here too. It’s a good place to get coats and dresses, especially if you want something more unique.
Prices are all right… a bit less than, say, Urban Outfitters. The sales are pretty good, though, and you can still find cheap cute stuff.
Salespeople aren’t very nice or helpful, but they leave you alone. They don’t really go out of their way to be rude or anything.

PINK ICE.
a pretty cool store. lots of different clothes for girls. hip, cool, has the latest fashions, etc. i brought a t-​shirt from here, i think for…24 dollars. reasonable prices, definitely.
i didn’t have too many problems with customer service. except maybe they should have people work faster? because i was in line for a whilllle. so i knocked off a star*.

It’s a small clothing shop in a long, skinny room.
The atmostphere is reminiscent of Clothesminded, if you’ve ever been there. Lots of clothes, small space.
Horrible ventilation, but fair prices! Found a great pair of dancin’ shoes for about $ 25, here. They have sales/​clearances in the back, as far as shoes go, 1 pair for $ 15, 2 for $ 20, etc.
Service was nothing special/​memorable. I’m not sure if they were snooty, but they certainly weren’t friendly. They were just there to do their jobs, I guess.
Likes: My new shoes! :D
Gripes: Picky return/​exchange policy, IMHO. Make sure you really want what you’re getting or you’ll have to haul your ass all the way back here in 3 days or some other inconvenient time frame.

Pink Ice is a women’s clothing store on the 3^rd street Promenade in Santa Monica. They carry clothes that are very similar to Forever 21, but a bit better in terms of quality. Prices here are pretty good too. They carry everything from tank tops, tshirts, shorts, pants, skirts, dresses, lingerie, to shoes, jewelry, sunglasses, and purses. The store is pretty neat. Overall, the clothes here are OK, but 3 stars because the service sucks. Staff is pretty stuck up.
