Two Elle
Rachel Lowe took a break from Vanderbilt law school to open this impossibly cute shop. The bungalow space, filled with Built by Wendy tops, sequined Chuck Taylors, and Karen Walker sunglasses, has a cheerful exuberance.

Via Runway
Lined with gated estates and equestrian ranches, the Belle Meade area is the poshest in the city. It's also the site of Nashville's most oddly located retail experiment, an old department store turned edgy mall. Its standout attraction is Via Runway, a stellar resource for highly regarded labels like Ports 1961, ChloƩ, and Y & Kei, plus picks from Superfine and Ksubi.
