Chico's is a staple fixture in most California malls and here in Bakersfield, it's located in the Marketplace on Ming. It's a "comfort" clothing store for women 35+. It's mostly knit outfits from gym wear to formal- all very tasteful and conservative. The style remind me at times of Southwestern in their choice of colors, prints and the jewelry the sell. I think they do offer some good staples, but would be a bit matronly for anyone in the 20s or early 30s.
