Whether you are looking for that perfect piece of furniture to complete your room or a dress for a night on the town, SOMA has it all. Spend an afternoon walking down Main Street and you are sure to leave with a few treasures in hand.

Archetype

 

One of my favorite stores on Main Street is The Archetype. Located on the Corner of 10th Ave and Main Street, this store features unique collections from around the world. Specializing in women’s fashion The Archetype is the perfect mix of eclectic modern pieces with a distinct retro feel that is perfect for both work and play. Along with clothing The Archetype has a large selection of one of a kind accessories. While at the store make sure to browse the baby section where they have the cutest onesies perfect for the little ones in your life.  Sorry boys... Archetype is just for girls, but it might be worth a visit to surprise that special someone with a present she is guaranteed to love.
