And I Keep Walking...

Ok, now it's getting darker and cooler, which I am infinitely grateful for. My next stop on my whirlwind tour is Fine Rugs of Charleston.


I have been here before and I always enjoy myself. Strange thing to say about a rug shop, maybe, but you'll just have to check it out to see what I mean. Everyone that I have talked to there is always great fun and I seem to learn something new every time I am in. Not to mention the beautiful pieces of art they have hanging all around in the form of woven rugs from around the globe. Art for your floor... what next?


A World Apart

One of the newest additions to Upper King is A World Apart. A store devoted entirely to importing only environmentally responsible and sustainable materials and goods from around the world. Very cool. And I am in good company,because the store was so packed I couldn't move! More on A World Apart when I have a chance to see what all the fuss is about!


I am trudging at this point, I have been walking this street in downtown Charleston for two hours now (and if you've seen the sidewalks in Charleston, you'll understand) and I just had some Sangria that is not agreeing with my walking self. And what do I see coming up next that makes me smile? It's Wonderland!

Another new addition to Upper King that is devoted to new arrivals! How perfect. Kid Couture! It was truly adorable. Everything is cute in miniature, but there were a few numbers in there that I wish came in my size. Of course everyone was checking out the new kid on the block, so it was a bit of a squeeze to see it all, but they seem to be purveyors of the fine life for kids. Everything from design solutions for the nursery to the latest in stylin' strollers to of course the clothes! The cutest clothes! But just be prepared it is couture. Don't say that I haven't warned you. But you simply must go and see Wonderland for yourself!
