From the reviews

I’ve been to a few of their shops but this one is definitely the best one. It’s got space to walk around in and there are a lot of pieces to select from. I only found very little pieces that fit me though, since almost everything was too big, but at least they have a website. Definitely will stop by again.

Rainbow Shops has been a staple in my shopping life for over 25 years. I love the Janaf location due to their huge variety. I receive so many compliments on my outfits .Each time everyone is shocked when I happily say "Thanks,I got it from Rainbows!"
