A new store moved into Ross Park Mall this year, it’s called Soft Surroundings. This is an interesting store, they offer clothing, bedding, jewelry, fragrance and things devised to help you unwind mentally and physically. Their goal is to make yourself a priority. I love their fur lined leggings for $15 and the colorful compression socks for $32.95. In addition to their line of clothing, they have some great gifts under $50. The bottle wraps caught my eye. These wraps can be used for wine or liquor bottles; actually they would be suitable for any tall glass bottle. The wraps come in fur ($14.95) or bling ($18.95) and are a lot of fun. They also had some great holiday pillows. I like to change my accent pillows for the holidays. The one featured on this page is $48.95. Soft Surroundings is open during the same hours as Ross Park Mall.
I’ve always loved to shop in museum or art gallery gift shops. This year I selected the Holiday Shop at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts, 6300 Fifth Avenue, the corner of Fifth and Shady near Shadyside. I found so many unique things; holiday cards, jewelry, hats, scarfs and so much more. The pillows featured on this page are by Klorebel Art ($45) feature Pittsburgh scenes. The apron I am wearing is by Laverne Kemp and is $49. Their holiday hours are Sundays: 12-5 p.m., Mondays in December: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., Tuesday-Wednesday 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., Thursday-Saturday 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. Please visit all three stores, you’ll be glad you did.
