Holiday Shopping Fave Winners

Clothing

  • Winner: Upstairs on 7th
    • Voter comments:
    • "Upstairs on 7th is THE best store for snazzy women in all of DC. The owner is fun, has a wicked sense of humor and a unique sense of style. Her clothes run the gamut in sizes, styles, colors and designers - she has a particularly great eye for color and what looks good on a person - and she will tell you when something just doesn't work on your body type. She's gorgeous, peppy, politically savvy and really, really smart. So you can shop and get the latest from Capitol Hill if you care - and if you don't, you can just shop to your heart's delight."
    • "Once you wear cloths from Upstairs on 7th you never turn back!"
    • "Not only great stuff, but a great attitude of community-making as well."
  • 1st Runner-up: Rerun
  • 2nd Runner-up: DEKKA

  • Winner: Now and Then
    • Voter comments:
    • "Now and Then is an additiction...they have a genius for stocking the most beautiful, unusual things. Even my 7 year old likes browsing the toy section!"
    • "I always buy gifts and other bits and pieces from these stores. I especially like Now and Then for children's gifts. Although a little more pricey than some other stores in further away areas, I save on the fuel alone."
    • "Whenever I'm looking for a gift that's a little funky or quirky (which is pretty much all the time), Now and Then almost always has something I love."
    • "Unique stores provide better service, atmosphere, and goods. The people who work there are helpful and nice. I will go back there for my holiday -- and non-holiday -- shopping."
  • 1st Runner-up: RCKNDY
  • 2nd Runner-up: Home Rule
