Fancy Jewels, Dottyspeck & More

July 15th, 2009

Picture 9Fancy on second avenue in downtown Seattle has the corner market on playful dedication to the whimsical and cute. Owned and operated by Sally Brock, who has been designing jewelry since she was 13, the petite store carries the complete Fancy line (handmade in the USA by one lady with two hands), and fabulous local jewelry by independent artists.

Brock is the only woman I know who could write “Custom orders are available -any piece you see can be re-made just the way you like it, unless you’ve got bad taste, or maybe if you want your ring made of bacon and titanium.” and bring a smile to your face. Maybe it’s Leroy the labradoodle but we suspect it’s Sally’s charm.

The above images are from new batch of work from Seattle’s own- Dottyspeck (named after Pee-Wee Herman movies of course) in all sterling silver. Use your City Stimulus card on these, or other purchases, and receive 10% off, including custom orders & free gift with any purchase over $200.

World Spice Merchants

July 15th, 2009

When I’m feeling like making something obscure for dinner, or even just needing to restock my African Cayenne, I swing by World Spice Merchants.  Located just below the Pike Place Market on Western, this hidden gem is for local foodies in the know.  Other City Stimulators, like Dahlia Lounge, How to Cook a Wolf, and Palace Kitchen have already figured out what the rest of us are dying to know:  World Spice is the place to educate yourself and stock up on herbs, spices, teas, and gifts from around the culinary world.

World Spice is offering 10% off all their merchandise this week. If you need to stock your pepper mill or give dinner-at-home some pep, it may be a good idea to swing by.

Babeland

July 14th, 2009

I was lucky to move to Seattle after Babeland was born.  Before I got here, my girlfriends and I would stay up late at night, talking about the mythical place in far-away Seattle, where women could feel confident about their sexuality and explore “adult toys” in a really low pressure and informative setting.

Have I mentioned how much I love Babeland? This week I’ll have something extra to write home about. Babeland is offering an outstanding incentive for City Stimulus this week: 15% off Sunday-Thursday.  A free Silver Bullet with purchase Friday & Saturday.

Babeland has received numerous awards over the years, including a 2006 and 2003 Zagat’s Survey award. It was voted “Best Place to Buy Sex Toys” by The Village Voice and The Seattle Weekly.

West Seattle shoe salon

Picture 3Clementine is the most darling little shoe shop in the West Seattle Junction. The vast selection includes whimsical to cute; sexy to comfortable- all under one roof. Noteworthy brands include Giraudon, Nanette Lepore, Corso Como & Cydwoq.

In addition to shoes, we love the Chemical Wedding one of a kind handbags using recycled, post-industrial scrap, factory seconds, and new leathers. The durable bags for differ in texture and color due to limited supplies. It’s like carrying your very own piece of art on your arm.
