I think it's safe to say that the fall of 2009 is shaping up
to be the season of the boot. No rules apply. Recently I've seen women wearing

While shops in this area are committed to supporting new

sense of quality and staying power that shoppers are responding to these days.

Since 1998, Flora and
Henri owner Jane Hedreen has been designing exquisite clothing for kids ages
newborn through 10 that elicit murmurs of "If only they made this in my size"
from the grown-ups who shop there. While the clothes are still pint-sized, Hedreen has added a collection of small indulgences for adults, including cosmetics, soaps and chocolates. The boutique reopened earlier this month in Capitol Hill's newly renovated Oddfellows
Building on East Pine Street.

outfitting Fremont

dresser and Bliss to a trendier, sexier one, Finch & Sparrow targets the 20-
to 30-something woman who likes to look cute, but is on a tighter budget.
