Forget the Mall and Shop Local!

Sure, you could camp out all night in front of that department store or mall for Black Friday sales (I shutter just thinking about this), or you could casually stroll into your local boutique, sip on some cider champagne (this sounds awesome Blue Elephant) and purchase some unique gifts for your loved ones or yourself.  I put together a list of local sales happening this weekend.  Check it out!

ATown: an Austin Lifestyle Store

You know when your friend comes into town to visit and wants to go shopping?  Besides taking them to all the great vintage stores Austin has to offer (that's a must of course), there's now a new store you might want to add to your list.  ATown is a surprisingly large boutique with a lot to offer to both Austinites and those visiting Austin.  Among the trendy clothing and beauty products lies an impressive selection of jewelry and art from local Austin designers.  Just like a good book, ATown gets more and more interesting as you delve further into the store.  The back section of ATown is set up much like an art gallery displaying things from local artists such as upcycled jewelry, artistic prints, paintings, and more random treasures.  ATown is a very gift-centric store, so it would be super easy for a visiting friend to leave here with a little piece of Austin...like mustache cufflinks perhaps?

I'm glad to see another boutique supporting local artists and designers!
