Right next door is BANGLES & BAGS, a jewelry, handbag and accessory boutique catering to women looking for an affordable way to accessorize. The clever arrangement of items in color groupings makes this a fun as well as budget-friendly stop for gifts. Just off Broadway hit several other locally owned shops. Stroll east to 5 HEARTS. Located at the corner of Milwaukee and Menomonee Sts., this boutique features brands such as Citizen's of Humanity denim, Lucca Couture, Zoa, XCVI, 525 America, and Virgins Saint and Angel's jewelry, with an emphasis on helping each client highlight her own individuality. MODIFY, 222 E. Erie St., caters to both men and women, with gently worn shoes, clothing items and accessories displayed next to new, fashionable pieces and artwork.

And, a variety of artisan cheese and cheesespreads from the state's top producers are available to nibble along with your vino. Cedar Creek Pottery, Cedarburg Cedar Creek Winery Luci Boutique 39
