4 reviews for Rockin Robin's Retro and Resale
There are lots of great things about this store. I would go there more often if it wasn't down the road in Niwot (a whole seven miles from here.) And yet, being in Niwot is part of its charm. So it's worth pointing the car in that direction when you have the time.
Robin is a delightful hostess. We always chat it up. She always makes me and everyone feel welcome. There's the little dance floor in front of the mirror and... there's the jukebox. You can pick the music you'd like to shop to. (Hmmm, will it be Aerosmith, or Journey today?) There are great rock and roll posters, and sweaty pics of Steve Tyler. (fyi... Robin is his biggest fan.) Robin has created a community-oriented website for the store. She sends out a weekly email link which includes fun pics of customers wearing the new clothes that came in this week. Very unique and fun.
I like to consign here because Robin has "vision" when she goes through your clothes... and unlike Rags, she will take what is cool even if it not what you would see in the mall this week. She likes what is funky and more interesting... not run of the mill. While Rags may comment, in their infinite wisdom, that "oh that just won't sell... that's not what people are shopping for", they WILL sell at Robins because they are indeed what women who want something a little more inspired ARE actually looking for. Robin knows this! So there are items I bring to Rags, and other items I bring to Robins.
I always find some happy additions to my wardrobe here. Some of my favorite wardrobe go-to's are from her store... a great black leather vest, jeans with leather patches and studs down the side, a hip-length woven summer cover-up that looks great over a tank top. Her pricing is very fair. And Robin will often pull out some item I hadn't noticed and say "this will look great on you." And heck, she's right.
Funky, funky, funky--and inexpensive and fun.
Everytime I drive or walk by, there is something fun on display, whether it be a Jane Eyre cape, a cigarette girl outfit, a tribute to Dale Evans, or a prom queen ensemble.
My daughter went to a friend's 16th birthday bash here and spent two hours snacking on munchies, trying on clothes, dancing to the juke box, and having a wonderful time.
Robin is the MC of just about all Niwot town events, and she rocks!
I'm not much of a shopper and only really go to a store when I really have to ... and when that happens I bop into Rockin' Robin's in Niwot, Colorado. This clothing store is full of funky, quirky, high quality clothing that is fun to try on and wear. The store has a jukebox and plays whatever I want it to depending on my mood (ok, others can use it too but only after I finish with it.) Robin is enthusiastic, creative and can dress me like a queen (or a drag queen if I want). Going into that store is a place I take company so they can get a taste of down home charm. I've tried on some items she suggested and am amazed at the amount of times I continue to wear them. I need to say this ... at Rockin' Robin's ......Robin Rocks!
Rockin Robins is a fabulous place to shop for vintage clothes, accessories, costumes and consigned goods. The owner, Robin, is fun and enthusiastic. The prices are great and there is a juke box w/dance floor and disco ball. Aside from the great shopping, it is a fun place to host a birthday party or girls' night out. My friends and I celebrated my birthday here and shopped/danced/ate and had a great time!
