January 31, 2008

shopping in austinShopping for real estate in Austin isn’t the only thing that’s hot here, Austin is famous for the amazingly diverse shopping options! Travel + Leisure magazine rated Austin the #4 best city for Vintage shopping- we suggest the SoCo district or the north and south ends of The Drag for the best vintage shopping. LA isnt’ where it’s happening, y’all!

Austin also ranks in the Top 25 for the following:
1. Antinque shopping- many of the suburbs offer amazing, hidden antique shops worth the weekend drive!
2. Shoe shopping- although it’s a chain store, I looove shopping for shoes at Nordstrom’s. For people who aren’t in their 20s and can’t wear 6″ wedge heels, Karavel shoes offers great comfort shoes that are actually in style.
3. Home design- there are endless home design stores in Austin and we love shopping, especially around the downtown Whole Foods area.
4. Luxury boutiques- you have to visit Davenport Village if you don’t want to show up at the party in the same dress she’s wearing!
5. Flea markets- I’ve heard they’re all over. Do you know of a good one? Let us know!

Austin is a place of diverse shopping meeting all of your needs ranging from a crazy hippie hat to a coture gown or even strange As Seen On TV items at the flea market. Where do you like to shop?
