    In my quest for a Quiksilver shirt from every surf spot on the planet (and every city I visit) I was so stoked when I found Big Planet on St. John. After spending a few days on St Thomas I was very disappointed - not just in the shopping but in the island itself. While its hard to say it isn't beautiful, it isn't what I expected... enter St John. The island is much prettier - maintains some of that Raw island feeling and provides a great place to relax, hit the beach and enjoy what you would expect from an Island in the Caribbean. Big Planet is located in a great little shopping center on the islands, fairly close to where the car ferry lets you off (if you came over from St. Thomas). There is plenty to see in this little shopping center and it's about 100x nicer than any shops you'll find on the other islands. The staff was super helpful and friendly and even responded to my email inquiry before we got to St John. They had a great selection of mens and women's surf gear, swim gear, shirts, shorts, etc. They even carry some local souvenir shirts in each of these brands and their own local brand too. It's a great shop with great prices to match.

    My sisters and I stumbled upon this cute and interesting consignment shop while sitting in the park…read morewaiting for the ferry back to St. Thomas. I am always down for exploring a thrift store, flea market, or consignment shop and when I spied Encore, I was ecstatic. We climbed the short staircase outside the colorful building, opened the door, and emerged into a small treasure trove of new and gently used shoes, clothing, accessories, and home decor. There was so much to look at and so little time! Beautiful designer shoes, sexy dresses, exquisite pieces of jewelry as well as casual wear. Prices were reasonable and there was something to fit every budget. Although I didn't find the hoop earrings I was hoping for, I saw many other nice things and wished we'd had more time to try things on and explore the shop. I left with a lovely faux pearl bracelet for $5. The owners are a couple who relocated to St. John from the mainland. The husband, Mr. Needham, was tending shop when we dropped in. He is a nice gentleman, well-spoken and welcoming. When I return to St. John, I'll make sure I have several hours to spend in Encore BEFORE I go to the beach.

    From the owner: Most people think of consignment shops as glorified thrift stores. We are not your average…read moreconsignment shop.
