Things we love about coastal shopping from the readers & staff of Coast Explorer Magazine
DAV Rubber Boots for Kids at Cotton Club in Seaside
These great black and white kids’ rubber boots made a hit with us because they are perfect for Oregon’s climate. They’re so versatile they can be worn when stomping in puddles, running with the dog on the beach or for daily wear to school. Priced at $39.95. Cotton Club, 415 Broadway in Seaside, (503) 738-6225
Jade Bracelets at The Sweater Shoppe in Gleneden Beach
We love the variety of jade beads in these affordable handcrafted macramé bracelets. The beads come in butterfly, tortoise, dragons, hearts and round beads. Priced at $29. The Sweater Shoppe, Shops at Salishan, Gleneden Beach,
(541) 764-3777
Art Couture Dress at Ambiance in Astoria
This unique artwork immediately caught our eye. The dress is constructed by artist Debra Cheuvront-Kelly of old laminated sheet music. We love the creativity and imagination involved in this artistic display. Priced at $189. Ambiance, 229 14th Street in Astoria, (503) 325-9139
Leather Luggage Tags and Passport Covers at The Paper Clip in Seaside
Most luggage looks alike, but we love the way these colorful leather monogram tags make yours stand out. The matching passport cover holds your credit cards, passport and even has a place for your pen. Now you’re ready to travel! Luggage tags are $12.95, and passport/travel organizer is $20. The Paper Clip, 203 S Holladay Drive in Seaside, (503) 738-6613
Vintage Western Outfit at Seaside’s Garbo’s Vintage Wear
What fun it is to pick something off this rack, something from another rack and another and come up with a put-together look – retro yet stylish. Matched with a pair of cowboy boots and tooled leather purse, this completes the outfit. Look for styles from the ’20s to the ’90s at Garbo’s Vintage Global Wear, 411 Broadway in Seaside, (503) 368-4272
