Nestled in the heart of downtown San Luis Obispo, California, Apropos is a destination all fashionistas will enjoy. The boutique is focused on empowering women through fashion, whether it is through casual jeans and a blouse or fancy dresses for weddings or special events.  Apropos opened its doors in San Luis Obispo in 2002, family ran and operated by a mother daughter team. Apropos is proud to have strong roots in the community, prior to opening Apropos the family owned and operated another boutique in the downtown by the name of Up Your Alley, which was a staple to downtown SLO from 1976 until it closed in 2001.

At Apropos we strive to bring you unique and high quality items that are comfortable and help you feel amazing. Many of the brands we carry are made in the USA and are from small, oftentimes family run companies. Supporting small business is important to Apropos and we strive to find responsible brands
that are producing their goods here in the USA. When selecting brands that are manufactured overseas Apropos will confirm they are working in fair trade situations that support the communities they are located in.
