As you know I recently had the opportunity to spend some time Experiencing Scottsdale Arizona which is about 45 minutes away from me. Growing up here I already knew that they have some of the BEST home décor shopping:) So I took a day to check out some of the shops and stores that any homelover would love.

Scottsdale Quarter

The Scottsdale Quarter is located on the southeast corner of Scottsdale Road and the Greenway-Hayden Loop, is an open-air center where the vibe of the city meets the serenity of the desert. The hip, urban destination sits on 28 acres with 370,000 square feet of retail, restaurant and entertainment options amid elegant, diverse architecture and lush landscaping.

Remember when Dorothy first saw the Land of Oz? For style seekers, Scottsdale Fashion Square inspires the same kind of breathless anticipation with over 250 shops. Right in front of your eyes, it’s Neiman Marcus, Barneys New York and Nordstrom. It’s Gucci, Ferragamo, Cartier and Bottega Veneta. Oh look, there’s Jimmy Choo, Hugo Boss and Juicy Couture. There’s Puma, H&M and Aeropostale. So many amazing stores in one place. Bet you could even find ruby slippers. Louboutin ruby slippers.

What you’ll love….

Crate and Barrel

Did you know the reason why they are called Crate and Barrel is because when they first stared up they had no money for displays, so instead they stacked up there crisp white bistro plates on to shipping crates. I love that story and I’m sure you will love this store. If you have a thing for white plates and a company with good taste then you will love this store! It’s so budget friendly too. They have something for everyone!

Z Gallerie

I call this the bling bling store. Everything shines and sparkles. If you looking for something glamorous to add to your room, make sure you stop in here! Everything from Hollywood regency to costal chic.
