Finicky Filly

Finicky Filly offers a great selection of Mara Hoffman, Tory Burch, and Twine & Twig. It’s one of Charleston’s more sophisticated boutiques for sure. They also have a French Bulldog who «works» here. The employees are all super friendly but not pushy. It takes the cake as my favorite boutique in the Holy City.

Best place ever! The people there are so friendly and appreciate that yes $ 450 for a shirt is a LoT of money, so they want you to be 100% happy. There was no pressure when shopping, which I loved, and they seemed to genuinely appreciate that I stopped by, regardless if I bought anything or not. (Which I did, because their stuff rocks)

Finicky Filly is one of my favorite shops in Charleston! I just moved here in May, and each time I stop in, I am greeted with a smile from some of Charleston’s kindest. The ladies are always willing to help me find exactly what I’m looking for, while giving me an honest opinion about the clothes I try on. I really appreciate their helpfulness! Even if you aren’t in the shopping mood, you should stop in to see Eloise (the French Bulldog mascot!)

Cute shop on King street. All the ladies who work there are very nice, however the clothing is mostly not my style and seem expensive for what they are. I do like the selection of purses and jewelry. I think my style matches more with their sister shop next door Haute Hanger.

I was recently on a road trip, that started in my home state of FL, and led my friends and I up the east coast. Charleston was our first stop. On this two day stopover in this quaint town, I stumbled into Finicky Filly. This was such a cute clothing and accessories boutique! The ladies there were such a delight. They told us to stick around during the rain and offered us cookies. We were also greeted by the stores mascot, a French bulldog, who was cute and friendly. The store had an excellent mix of moderate to high end fashions, as well as, stationary and other home goods. I purchased some cute stationary and a new luggage tag while there. I had a very pleasant experience overall and would highly recommend a visit!

One of the best selection of Tory Burch bags I have ever seen in a small boutique. The staff is extremely accommodating, and even offered to order a bag if they did not have it in the store. I highly recommend stopping by the Finicky Filly if you’re in the market for a Tory Burch bag.
The owner is a so nice and a hoot, beyond friendly. She had the entire store in laughing, and made everyone’s shopping experience much more lovely.
Great store, and fabulous shopping experience.

I have shopped at this store for the past 4 years. I have been very pleased with the selection and uniqueness of the clothing, accessories, and jewelry. As a mid 20s shopper, I have been accommodated as well as my Mother who is 60… A little something for every taste and budget. What strikes me is the customer service… Hands on attention and help pulling things together. 5 stars in my book.

My first and last visit to this boutique. The unbelievably pushy owner kept trying to force these weird plaid pants and other strange items on me, and relentlessly pushed and pushed as I tried to browse around. She wouldn’t leave me alone, was literally shouting her «suggestions» across the store to me (very embarrassing), and wouldn’t take «no thank you» for an answer or accept numerous polite hints that I prefer to shop for myself (esp. since she was so off-​base in her choices). My mom and I were trying to shop together and chitchat, but the owner kept interrupting us. It was bizarre.
Because – and only because – I had a Groupon I needed to use, I stayed in the store until I found something to buy, and actually ended up spending a few hundred dollars (on top of the Groupon). But she was apparently so angry with me for not buying what she wanted me to that she literally wouldn’t even look at me as I was being rung up, or say thank you or goodbye. And she was a foot away from me. Great way to treat the only person in the store who’s buying anything. Not good strategy when about 80% of the store is on clearance and you’re obviously desperate for sales. My mom and I couldn’t believe her behavior and we won’t be back. The younger blond woman who worked there that day was nice, though.
FYI, the owner is the one on the right:

I was forced to spend some time shopping during our Charleston trip & whilst i have no idea about the type of merchandise this store sells (I assume womans clothing) it did have a large comfy chair & WIFI so i could play with my Iphone & at least kill some of the time, hence 2 stars rather than 1 star!
