The holiday season is upon us and as much as some of us may dread the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping it still has to get done, so here at The Nigel Knows Real Estate Team we want to make it easier for you. Sure It’s easy to go online and shop but, Philadelphia has so many local shops, so why not give back to our community. Philadelphia has so many shops where you can find tons of locally made gifts. They all have websites and if it’s easier, you can always visit them to do all of your shopping.  But there’s something to say about visiting the store as well.  You know you always come across something that you didn’t realize you wanted until you saw it.

Lets dig deeper into some of our personal favorites!

Little Moon & Arrow

Moon + Arrow is a socially-responsible and environmentally conscious boutique that carries everything from handmade and vintage jewelry to clothing, accessories, home-furnishings, decor, apothecary and even have a budding baby/Toddler section!

 Philadelphia Independents

This cute Old City Boutique has all handmade items from local Philadelphian artists. Philadelphia Independents really does have it all! Here at the Nigel Knows Real Estate Team we get all of our settlement gifts from this awesome boutique. We LOVE the idea of shopping local! Having been in this store myself I really can say that it is a great little spot! Stop on in and tell them we sent you! You will not be disappointed. 

Ritual

Welcome to your one stop shop for funky, indie-designed jewelry, apothecary items, apparel & home goods. Ritual  as they like to say is a spirit-based jewelry and clothing boutique located in the fun neighborhood of Northern Liberties. The employees in this store thrive off of magical and positive vibes just like our team over here at The Nigel Knows Real Estate headquarters!

United By Blue

 This shop started out in 2010 out of “desire to preserve the place where we play.” United By Blue has a mission and that mission is to protect our world’s oceans and waterways. Not only does United By Blue have an awesome mission but what they do in order to make that mission come to life is even cooler. For every product sold they pledge to remove a pound of trash from the earth’s oceans and waterways through company-organized cleanups. Why not make shopping for the holiday fun and productive in this nifty local shop!
