Union Square get's a Shot in the arm

 
Stopped into Shotwell boutique the other day.
It offers a refreshing mix from the usual Union Square stores.
The selection is young and a little edgy, like Urban Outfitters but less mainstream.
Shotwell could easily be at home on Haight Street with the selection of items
featuring  studs, zippers and the like but there is also a nice mix 
of recognizable names such as Elizebeth and James, Mink Pink, Aryn K,
Cheap Monday, April 77, as well as several local designers
and a nice mix of vintage to round it out. 
There is definitely an 80's  (youthful) vibe  and the people who work there
are very cheery and helpful.
There's two floors with jewelry and and more of the street wear 
on the the 1st and  'collection' items and shoes on two.
Shotwell is a great place to pop into and discover.
