Denim Dreams

Scoring the perfect jeans in SLC

Fall, Say It Ain't So

Great summer dresses that will transition into fall—and on sale!
Yes, I'm swooning over the new Fall 2015 Nordstrom catalogue but it's still summer to me and I'm finishing rosé season in style. Don't change out your wardrobe just yet, because Utah is known for those dog days that last well into September.

Sneaker Pimps

Get your kicks at Salt Lake City's Fice
It's all my brother's fault. The fact that's he's younger and has an original Takashi Murakami's print hanging in his New York City apartment was the reason I sought out a store named Fice in Salt Lake City (160 E. 200 South, @fice_gallery).

Mid-Mod

Modern-furniture shopping at SLC's Tomorrow's House, Green Ant and Urban Vintage
I became an adult when I ditched the college-era milk crates that I had used as night stands. It was 1999 when I discovered the modern furniture catalogue Design Within Reach Catalogue (DWR) and it was like a baptism for me.

Home Is Where the Heart Is

Classic-with-an-edge buys at SLC's Apt. 202
After 2 1/2 weeks of visiting my hometown of Philadelphia, shopping in the Hamptons and spending time on the beach in Ocean City, N.J., I am reminded why I love Salt Lake City.

Say, You'll Love Sayulita

Hippie-chic shopping in Mexico
I'm on vacation on the Right Coast, and my first stop is the Hamptons. This Long Island enclave is synonymous with New York City pretention a la Gwyneth Paltrow.

Sugarhood Retro

Shopping at Unhinged, Rewind Exchange and Man Up
Unhinged (2165 S. Highland Drive, 801-467-6588, @unhingedut) opened a few years ago in the heart of Sugar House amidst the frenetic growth and development of the area. They were smart in choosing their location, as it's become a destination for the young and restless.
