Alabaster

Gorgeous new and antique alabaster items are the biggest draw here. Creamy white candleholders, vases, and lamp bases share shelf space with luxurious gift items, including velvet address books, lush coffee-table books, and silk bags.

Azalea

The denim bar here is best in class with almost 20 standout labels. Try decadent silk-lined Odyn Swan jeans, iconic skinny jeans from Sass & Bide, or impossible-to-find pieces by Earnest Sewn (we swear by their hyper-dark denim skirt).
