Local and Chain

Good Places to shop can be hard to find, especially if you are not blessed with 5th Avenue near by. Since I am a Charlottesvillian at this point here are some good local places to check out:

~ boutique boutique: on the Downtown Mall--earth friendly clothing

~ the shoe store next door: next to boutique boutique and owned by the same people

~ elsie garden: boutique style women's fashion (the only place in Charlottesville that sells TOMS shoes) also on the Downtown Mall

~ Antics: vintage goodies :off Downtown Mall (good men's selection)

~ elosie: water street downtown: women's fashion

~ Cha Chas: great for odds and ends

~ don't underestimate the accessories available at the stands places throughout the Downtown Mall
