Your A-List: Best Place to Buy Fashion Accessories
Always choose the accessories last. That’s what people notice. And, after following the social circuit, I can attest that’s true. A bright scarf, a richly hued tie, a flattering necklace, a fashionable watch — they all catch the eye first.
The winner, however, is Luxe, also known as Luxe Apothetique. Located in the Domain, it’s a full-service establishment, with hair, skin, gift and apparel functions, as well as delicious accessories.
Emeralds, the longtime, bustling shop on Lamar Boulevard formerly known as Emeralds and Coconuts, came in second with 14 percent.
All the rest — Goodie Two Shoes, Downstairs Apparel, Girl Next Door, Parts and Labour, SoLA, New Bohemia, Peyton’s Place, Eliza Page, Blackmail, Creatures, Garden Room, Feathers, Minx, Shiki, Estilo and By George — crowded together at less than 10 percent.
Hey, you might not guess by looking at me, but I shop at some of these places!

These are all really awesome stores to buy accessories! I am really confused, though. When I voted this morning it said downSTAIRS was winning by 70%???
