An eclectic mix of vintage finds and modern designers, Duo is a boutique for those looking for unique pieces from eras staring in the late 1800s to now. Each piece is handpicked by sisters Wendy and LaRae Kangas who constantly update their shop with vintage finds and emerging local talent. A cozy interior of exposed brick and refurbished antiques makes a perfect home for both vintage and modern collections, which includes 10 local clothing and jewelry designers that are sprinkled throughout.
The vintage finds range from a perfectly fitting schoolboy blazer to floral-print maxi dresses. Pieces start at $50, with most dresses hovering around $135. Since each piece is handpicked with care, there are no funky-fitting pants or overstretched sweaters, each one feels like new and would fit seamlessly into any modern wardrobe. Definitely don't miss the vintage shoes that line the floor throughout the shop and include great leather sandals, boots, and woven oxfords.
The modern collection highlights emerging local designers and includes favorites such as Keller, Dusen Dusen, Caycee Black, and Bodkin. None of the pieces are over $300, and most dresses are around $200. Delicate, whimsical jewelry by Nishi starts at $65 and is made of sterling silver and 18k gold.
Duo is a great place for perfect vintage finds and the discovery of up-and-coming designers that are chosen with a well-edited eye and flair for the unique.
