Shopping Without Being Jammed



Shopping Without Being Jammed

(pictures below)


Last week we told you about several unique stores in some of the larger shopping areas that were with a visit, but as the gift giving holiday approaches, lets talk about places you should be able to find some great, unique gifts that are easier to access. Hopefully by now you have already made a lot of your gift decisions and you are just trying to fill in some of your missing packages. We have a few suggestions.

If shopping for a guy, why not head to an exclusive men's store with casual offerings of style. Urban Body is located on South Howard, tucked away behind the Starbucks at 715 S. Howard Avenue in SOHO. This store carries highline men's fashions from around the world. If Wrangler Jeans don't measure up to the personality of your intended gift recipient, then have a look at their lines of designer jeans and products with recognizable names: Ben Sherman, Jet Lag, 4 You, Android, Hard 8, English Laundry, Monarchy, Drifter, 1921 and more. Watches, shirts, shoes, and more, this store is worth the visit. With a professional staff and unique items, Urban Body has been a long time SOHO location with another store located in the classy Thornton Park section of Orlando. http://www.urbanbody.com/


Thinking Dogs ? Downtown Dogs is located in the Old Hyde Park Village and can provide you with almost anything your are seeking for you 4 legged gift recipient. Give your dog team spirit with a team collar or maybe just some special treats that will keep unconditional love coming your way. http://downtowndogstampa.com


But wait, you can't narrow it down even that close ? How about a huge selection of gifts from over 170 different countries - and shopping with a social conscience as well. International Bazaar next to GameWorks in Ybor is the perfect place to stop to get ALL of your last minute items. Music from Peru, Rugs from Morrocco, Jewelry from everywhere, this store features items that in most cases are purchased direct from the artist or creators. Furniture, clothes, hammocks, games, musical instruments, and the list just keeps going on. How about a belly dance while you are here ? Want to spend a lot of money ? No Problem. Looking for just the last minute, inexpensive stocking stuffers, No Problem. International Bazaar has it all. http://www.centroybor.com/directorylisting.asp?id=13
