Book and Books

Just a block off the Miracle Mile is this wonderful bookshop specializing in the arts and literature, as well as books on Florida. There’s a great café, frequent poetry readings, and book signings. Upstairs you’ll find a rare books room, which is also a photo gallery.
Borders

Not just a delightfully complete bookstore, but also a snack and coffee bar, and just a great place to hang out.

Hibiscus Hill

A unique gift shop with a captivating range of handmade objects: elaborate jewelry, handblown glass, and imported objets , all with a distinctly fabulous air. Fabulous prices, too, for the most part.
Midori Gallery

Exquisite, museum-quality Chinese and Japanese ceramics, lacquers and ivories, some as old as the Eastern Han Dynasty, 25–220 AD. Other sublime pieces date from the Sung Dynasty, about 1,000 years ago.

Out of Africa

The sound of African drums fills the air, and hand-carved wooden figures and masks, and silver jewelry fill the space.

This store carries hand-crafted gifts and fashionable accessories for the body and home. There’s also fine art, curios, antiques, and unusual silver and gold jewelry.
White House

A rarified collection of women’s fashion, all of it white. Elegant, sequined evening gowns, smart suits, peignoirs, and underthings. Prices suit the quality of the fabrics and workmanship.
