PASSIONAL Boutique

As soon as I walked in I was greeted by one of the staff. She was very friendly and personable. She assured me I could ask her anything. She was very knowledgeable on every product I had questions about. They layout of the store was great, everything had its own section, and I could test everything I wanted before buying. After making my purchase I made my way to the clothing store half a block away and the selection of clothing and how comfortable the staff made me feel in both stores was incredible. Everyhing was higher quality then other stores Ive been to. I honestly believe they have something for everyone in both stores. It was an overall fantastic shopping experience. I highly recommend this store for any of your adult needs. Pros: Service, Selection, Quality, Educational. more

Passional Boutique, and the NEW Passional Toys "Sexplatorium" just down the block, are two of the classiest stores in the South Street area. The clothing store offers everything from the hottest new club wear to beautiful and UNIQUE leather and latex outfits. Over at the toy store, each of the products are chosen for their quality and durability. This is also the only place in town to satisfy your medical, electrical, and bedroom play needs in one store. On top of their awesome guarantee (90 days on all toys and clothing!) the store gives off an air of sophistication. The employees are trained on their products and many of them have personally tested what they're selling. They really seem to care about the store and the items. And, being fitted for a corset is and experience quite unique to Passional Boutique! Pros: special ordering, selection, knowledge Cons: parking more

I was a bit taken aback at first by the sales staff, who look a little more punk-rock than pin-up (it is South St. after all) but these people know their stuff. Don't be afraid to ask for their expertise. I was really shy walking into Passional my first time, but it was a wonderful experience and I've gone back many times since. Everything from the hardwood floors to variety of toys convinced me I was going to have some serious fun here. Passional Boutique (the fashion store) is one of the few stores in the city to carry real steel-boned corsets and these things are seriously to die for, the inventory alone is a pleasure to look over. If you can't find something that fits perfectly or you want another fabric - ask them to check their backstock, or order a custom corset. The clothes range from all sorts of club wear and costumes (a great variety particularly if you'd like to look like you spent more than a couple bucks at Party City) as well with some gorgeous leather pieces. Men will find a lot to search through too. The boutique carries everything from leather pants and kilts to t-shirts with charmingly naughty slogans. The toy store is now a few doors down in its own location and has a huge variety of toys. You won't find the typical silly bachelorette gag gifts here (like suggestively shaped pasta), but you will find everything from your standard bullet vibes all the way to the highly praised and reviewed Lelo toys. Again, the sales staff are happy to recommend and educate you, so don't be shy or just go with something boring. Ask for a recommendation, and they'll be able to give you everything from first or second hand reviews to proper toy care tips. The second floor carries even more goodies, including the swings everyone raves about but doesn't want to pay shipping on from online vendors. I'd absolutely recommend the store to anyone who wants to have fun and explore, without getting overrun by giggling teenagers. Pros: Ambience, Very knowledgeable sales staff, great variety of products, good hours Cons: South Street Parking more
