Ok, I just adore this little local Phoenix shop. The couple that owns it are just so nice. Even…read morewhen Wells Fargo declined my purchase for fraud protection, they were so understanding as I sat on hold with the bank for over 10 minutes to speak to a representative. It was the highlight of my shopping day... The wife takes such pride in her merchandise and lives to tell the story behind each piece. They feature local artists from Mexico and around the country, so there are lots of stories to share! :D I have been to this business several times and actually make it a point to stop in each time I'm in Phoenix. It's located in a cute shopping center courtyard. The store is filled to the brim with an eclectic assortment of clothing, jewelry, purses, shoes, scarves and art. If you are looking for unusual, one of a kind pieces this is your place! They had beautiful handmade skirts from Sweden this time. They were more works of art than clothing! I always spend way too much, but the quality and uniqueness of their selection is worth every dollar. I just love their handmade jewelry selection. I have a necklace handmade from an artist in Mexico and I get compliments every time I wear it. Support local!!

Lots of ideas for gifts - birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, holiday seasonal suggestions - I will definitely be back when I want that perfect gift. I know they have it. The owner has used a very artistic eye to create a boutique with a cozy, friendly feeling. I truly did not know where to look next. I found myself turning in circles trying to take it all in. Lots of unique items from Mexico and many gifts that looked like one-of-a-kind artistic touches. Colorful! Bright! Soft! Different textures! Tiny items. Books. Clothing. Toys. Jewelry. Cards. Flowers. (Not sure I saw a purple lizard though?) And someone obviously has a VERY green thumb. The shop is filled with luscious, happy, smiling plants. Breathing clean air into the whole space. Absolutely worth a shopping trip. Maybe I'll meet you there?

While I was in Phoenix, I was on the hunt for postcards to send home, and my friend suggested we…read morestop by Frances Boutique. We went in looking specifically for postcards, but unfortunately, they didn't have any. That said, Frances was absolutely adorable! They had handmade items from all over the world, cute cards, and all kinds of unique things to browse. It just wasn't quite what I was looking for on this particular trip. As I was getting ready to leave, though, I happened to notice a vending machine tucked away in the corner for Strange Collective AZ. I had seen something similar on reels when we were in San Francisco, but I could never find one in person, so I was immediately excited! Of course, there was one problem--I had left my roll of quarters at the house. So we had to leave, go get the quarters, and come back. Clearly, this vending machine had already become a mission. When we returned, we discovered that you could purchase astrology cards, temporary tattoos, stickers, and mystery items from the vending machine. The mystery items were only 50 cents, while the other items were just $1, making this such a fun and inexpensive way to get a little piece of local art. I ended up getting a sticker and a mystery item, and I got two stickers that were about as opposite from each other as you could possibly get--but both were completely unique and fun. I loved that this was such an unexpected little discovery. It was a fun way to support artists, find something different, and take home a unique souvenir without spending much money. I would definitely go back to Frances and spend more time actually shopping because there were so many cute things to look at. But let's be honest--the vending machine is what drew me in and ended up being the highlight of our stop!

There are a lot of native American themed items-jewelry, pottery, dream catchers, etc. They are lovely, and reasonably priced, however I noticed that many had tags on them stating that they were made elsewhere.
