Hi y’all!! Erin here- We are officially a week away from Christmas…are you finished with your shopping??? We are not even close! So if you are like some of us in the Soiree office then you will be wrapping presents right before the Big Man comes down the chimney. And if you are still shopping then there is no reason why you shouldn’t be shopping local! Don’t know where to go? No worries. Here is a list of just a few of our favorites. Hit these spots and you will have no need to check your list twice!

1) ESD

Tara loves the jewelry at ESD, but you can also find eclectic furniture and home decor. This is the perfect place to pick up all the hostess gifts you will need this season!

Location: 422 Savannah Highway

2) Mac & Murphy

This little boutique specializes in all things paper. Designs range from funky to traditional but all the products are top notch. If you have someone on your list that loves stationary you are sure to find a gift for them here!

Location: 74 1/2 Cannon St.

3) Vieuxtemps

Our friend Magda owns this King Street spot. Vieuxtemps easily has the largest selection of fine china, glassware and service ware. Not just for bridal registries! Make sure to stop in here and pick up a beautiful platter for that person on your list that loves to dress up a table.

Location: 180 King St.

4) Goat. Sheep. Cow.

A must for any foodie on your list. They have great wines, to die for artisanal cheeses, breads and a really friendly staff to help you make a selection.

5. Poe’s Studio

This is where the cool kids shop! Pick up amazing clothes, unusual toys and even a few things for mom. We bought an assortment of knitted hats to give as presents to past clients who are having babies!
