It's hard to find small stores in San Francisco that carry designer-with-a-capital-D clothing. Nida is one of a few such stores. The collection, drawing from Europe's finest, is impeccably selected and never lacking in the I-saw-it-in-Vogue-last-month department. The prices are worthy of the designers and the staff is very mellow--no pushiness, no weird looks, no dress code.
