Including brands such as Wildfox, Free People, Rails, Xirena, Chan Luu, Blue life and more, c.jane is a must-stop shop. This boutique is filled with style experts that want to help answer any fashion needs. They also have a denim expert who can fit you with the best jeans for your body type. This feature is something that I am super grateful for as I am on the taller side and shopping for jeans that truly fit is a struggle. This boutique always keeps the customer in mind which makes it such a pleasant shopping experience.

Clothing, Accessories, bath, body, candles, and face masks…I mean what doesn’t this boutique sell?! Of course, this shop sells MEGA cute clothing, but aside from the outfits, I want to focus on the unique accessories that this store sells. They have candles that are perfect as gifts or simply for yourself. Not only do they smell amazing, but they feature fun saying on the packaging. Luxe Apothetique also sells candles that are dupes of the very popular anthropology candles.

UAL is a unique retail destination where you never know what amazing pieces or deals you will find. This boutique purchases past-season and overstock items from high-end boutiques and department stores. They also work directly with designers to purchase sample and overruns. One thing to note when shopping at UAL is that they often only have one of a certain item and that sizes can vary. So, if you stop on by and see something you love in your size, you should buy it! Chances are it might now be there when you come back.
