What I found When I Googled Best Hipster Shopping Miami

July 6, 2017 · In: Art, Design, Travel


vsco-photo-2-4.jpg


Times are changing for sure.  Most of us rarely consult a guide book these days when we hit a new town.  Instead we opt to Google “Best Shopping Miami” which unfortunately will lead you down a path towards South Beach, H&M, and Zara.  Which, don’t get me wrong, I kind of like.  But I have those in my town and I have the internet.  So. I googled “Best Hipster Shopping Miami” and that’s when I hit the gold mine.

Independent shopping to our hearts’ content was laid at our feet at the Wynwood Arts District in Miami.  I would have thought I had died and gone to heaven if it hadn’t been nearly 100 degrees that day.  But who needs roads paved with gold when they can be paved with art instead?

There literally were not enough hours to shop all the cool places. And so many options to undecorate with.  With three kids along for the ride, we shopped til they dropped. Then we stopped someone who was carrying one of the boxes that practically everyone had in their hands.  Because apparently if you want to look like a local, you cannot be seen on the streets of Wynwood without a box from The Salty Donut.  (Just trying to keep you hip and cool!)

Here are some of our favorites but be sure to arrive early and plan to stay.  We didn’t even scratch the surface!

Nomad Tribe: Global, Responsible, Cool…

Photo Moment: Miami Bomb Squad
Shop Basico: The perfect blend of vintage and manly glam

Photo Moment: We never turn down a Place to Kiss

Aesop: Literally THE best face and body products on the planet (No store in the world is the same!) 

Plant The Future : Where art and plants meet.

Photo Moment: Red, white, & Blue!

Shinola: The brand that is single handedly saving Detroit!

Photo Moment: Floral on Floral!

Panther Coffee : Hip, Woodsy, & Great iced coffees! 

Photo Moment: Bikes on a crowd

Frangipani : Scandinavian Design + Handmade heaven!

The Salty Donut: Get there early.  They sell out!

Photo Moment: Flower Art rocks!

Patrizia Bozzi : White, Clean, and just a little Mediterranean

Photo Moment: Life is Too Short to Sit in the Passenger Seat

    Fantastic! The floral wall (with an insanely gorgeous you), is something I’d love to do in my home. Your family is gorgeous! Love the Miami vibe.

    You should totally do a floral wall like that! I think you could even do it with chalk paint if you were worried about permanence! (And thank you for the kind words!)

      Yes, agree, and thinking a dining room, or small bath, would be wonderful. Oh, you’re welcome–you are a blessed woman, but I think you already know that!

    I have a simple question for you Tina. I have some new bedroom drapes and I wondered what is the latest trend for tiebacks. Tassels? Fabric? Brass hooks (or those pretty brass swans) attached to the wall? Thanks for any and all suggestions.

      Most people these days aren’t using tie backs. They use panels that just drape like this and with grommets to be able to pull them back and forth:http://rstyle.me/n/cp4np2syu6

      But a slim metal tie back is a beautiful modern way of still using them if you prefer them!

        Thanks Tina. These are in our bedroom and are blackouts so I need to hold them back in the day and close them tightly at night. Thanks so much. Glad you’re back on this side of the pond, although I’d follow you anywhere.

    Aww! You are a darling! Thank you! And if your drapes are heavy I would go with a metal tie back. It will be sturdy enough for the weight of the curtains.

Hanging a wreath over the window & potted trees to the counter really gets the mood started!  No Baking Station is complete without a Kitchenaid.
