We have both an online store and a brick and mortar shop. Both of these are full time jobs. You can shop in store Wednesday - Saturday 12-6 and shopping online is 24/7.
There are over 400 listed items for sale on our website and over 3000 items available in store. We choose the items for the website that are the most unique and have wow appeal. It is challenging for us to sell basics online like cotton t shirts or jeans and when we do we have to add high detail photos and style the items. It is an ebb and flow when it comes to finding what appeals to an online shopper vs in store. There is a lot of psychology that goes into shopping and decision making.
After 17 years in business our customers have grown into shoppers who look for high quality, unique and accessibly priced items. Anytime we have tried to deviate from this formula there is resistance. We started carrying new items we call our "curated collection" and had to ease our customers into the idea of branching out to new items. We showed customers how to mix modern with vintage and showed them how it could work and 10 years later it is still a wonderful union.
We have loyalty to the people who have helped us survive and grow our business. We give our customers what they want. You ask for it, we try to get it/find it. It is challenging to keep the inventory fresh and rotating daily but the excitement of seeing new items keeps the customer coming back often. We do have customers who refuse to shop online and we have customers who refuse to shop in store. So we have both. Customer service is the key to success and longevity to our business. We answer questions and share photos, tips and tricks on how to get an item that fits what you are looking for.
Thank you for shopping in store and online. We appreciate you.

Just A Few Brands We Carry:
KNICKEY - organic cotton bra + underwear. New York
Sustainable from the Start
Knickey was founded as a sustainable brand from the start - seeking out the most environmentally responsible processes, low-impact fabrics and ethical manufacturing - and we're always ready to do more. We swap the greenwashing for integrity and accountability. By choosing Knickey, you can be confident that every step of our design, product and business has been carefully considered.
BAGGU - A bay area local. Sustainable Accessories. Women Owned. Ethical And Wonderful.
LE BON SHOPPE - SLOW FASHION
Unlike fast fashion which is ephemeral in both quality and style, slow fashion products are made to last the whims of trends and the wear and tear of time. It is a lifestyle that means making a more conscious choice to consume less, and consume better by choosing companies and quality products that are meant to last many seasons.
Even more, we do not follow the traditional never ending seasons of the fashion industry. Caught in a never ending grind of meeting self-conceived deadlines and launch dates, factories are placed under high pressure which can compromise integrity and lead to burn out. We are flexible and compassionate with our factories and value all those who have a hand in making all things Le Bon Shoppe as people first. We give ourselves ample time to restock and don’t sweat it if things don’t go according to schedule!
CAVE GLOW CANDLES - Hand Poured. Small Batch. Ethically Sourced. Small Business. Catskills New York

Supporting Others. Donating And Fundraising has been a large part of our platform and our social media allows us to reach further than the fashion industry.
