The Mercantile
Illuminated paper stars dangle from the rafters in this tin-roofed boutique, which has the feel of an old barn. Feminine seems to be the theme here, with floral-print dresses by Betsey Johnson, velvet-trimmed Awake by Oz tees, and beautifully wrapped soaps by Fresh. It's also the only place in the state to find Kiehl's products.
