Arrive Miami by Josh Rubin
Arrive Miami's attention to detail and commitment to serving this generation's travel-minded set is clear. Like Base, Arrive is a retail rarity in Miami; the not quite one year-old boutique features labels like Y-3, Loeffler Randall, Evisu, Cloak, Earnest Sewn, Nicole Farhi, LA Atelier, Red Monkey, Grey Ant, Cazal, Bell & Ross, and Rogues Gallery, among others. As the line-up suggests, Arrive's approach to fashion reflects a tempered philosophy seen in statements like "Exclusivity will be treated as a necessity and not a privilege" and "Fashion is merely an extension of self-expression; treat it with an open mind but never take it too seriously."

Montaigne Market
Montaigne Market in Paris blooms like a garden of fashion between the conservative, single-brand storefronts of Montaigne Avenue. As the first multi-marque in the city of lights, the store engineers a confluence of current and classic styles from Paris, London, California, and New York. The 4,000 square foot space encourages mixing and matching of designers in different price tiers, an increasingly popular strategy put...

Base
For better or worse, the Lincoln Road Mall on South Miami Beach is quite reminiscent of New York's 7th Avenue in the West Village. One shop however, Base, stands out from the rest by offering an exceptionally curated suite of both products and services. Owner Steven Giles says "we're less about labels and more about the ongoing (and less easily defined) culture of the...

Grifted Boutique
by Ashley Eldridge Stuffed Mao Zedong dolls and candy wrapper curtains beckon from the windows of the Grifted shop on Beijing's famed Nanluoguxiang. Inside, irreverence reigns. Barack Obama, decked out in a Superman suit (all the more fitting post-Nobel), nestles up against Fidel Castro and miniscule Napoleon dolls. (The little dictator doesn't come full-size.) Bedazzled Buddhas and reindeer pandas dot pre-cut squares of wrapping paper....

Libreria Valdeska
Specializing in art, thought and literature, Valencia's Libreria Valdeska is a bibliophile's dream find. Tucked away on the narrow Calle del Mar, just west of the Jardín del Turia, Valdeska embraces the bookstore as boutique approach, offering a tightly-curated collection of small presses, vintage titles and classic publications (all in Spanish). Tables devoted to music, poetry and journals supplant a small design section, while...

The space focuses primarily on the publications, posters and accessible artist editions that the powerhouse gallery creates from its many...
