Spring Has Sprung - Time to Accessorize!

It’s getting warm in Austin and that means it time to break out the warm weather clothes and accessories that have been hidden away for the winter! Although it’s great to have some tried and true pieces that you return to season after season (after all, who doesn’t love flip flops?!), there’s nothing wrong with trying some new trends and adding to your collection!

Austin is definitely not lacking when it comes to places to shop - and locally owned places to boot! When heading out to shop, keep your eyes peeled for some new trends like headbands with large bows on them as well as some everlasting ones like multi-layered necklaces. One place to make sure you hit up on your warm weather shopping spree is the local shop, Strut. With four locations, there’s likely to be one close to you. Strut is known for it’s unbelievably reasonable prices and it’s chic, up to the minute fashion styles. From handbags to stilettos, you can find it here!

Another local gem that is not only locally owned, but exclusively carries pieces from local designers is Parts and Labour. Located on South Congress, it has been voted one of Austin’s best stores in 2009 by shopacrosstexas.com. If you’d like to let me know about other cool Austin shops that carry unique accessories, please let me know!
