The Texas sun is a force to be reckoned with – so much so that sunglasses and other shady accessories are a year round necessity. But in the summertime, it’s truly time to shine with fun styles, whether it’s a pair of sweet vintage rounded shades or super modern aviators with studs. We’re also quite fond of dramatic summer hats, especially those floppy straw pieces fit for a sassy Southern belle. Scouring the city, we’ve got three spots that will bring the bling to your already sweltering style.
Adelante (1206 W 38th St)
You’ll have a ball mixing and matching bold colors and patterns at this Austin boutique which has a color palette as eclectic as an art nouveau painter. Carrying everything from retro-inspired tunics to recycled vintage furniture, Adelante is a bit like stepping into the ultra mod yard sale of a Palm Springs glamour girl. Our favorite part about this place is the super cool 1976 Airstream bus that can be rented out for private parties. You’ll be staying cool and looking the part too!
SoLa (815 W 47th St, Ste 100)
Sister-owned boutique SoLa is a warm, homegrown sort of place where a girl can take her boots off and let her hair down. With uniquely feminine clothing, a selection of incredible shoes, and a full collection of accessorizing items, you’ll want to make yourself comfortable as you browse the racks and try on your favorite pieces and sunglasses styles. This boutique has a cozy vintage feel that will make you long for a warm summer night adorned in a white linen blouse and golden baubles that will catch the light of the stars above.
The Garden Room (1601 W 38th St, Ste 5)
This staple among Austin boutiques knows that women dress to stand out, not blend in; and each piece is brought into the store for that very purpose. With colors and patterns designed for the bold at heart, this boutique makes a perfect destination to make your wardrobe match the sunny summer days. Collections come from a mix of designers both local and international and is the only Austin carrier of local design name Yansi Fugel. A trip to The Garden Room is sure to be fruitful each time you step inside.
