The seven new storefronts to check out in Boulder
RIP bank account
Get on The Hop (because parking on Pearl Street is likely to lead to an existential crisis) and head downtown to explore the latest additions to the famous outdoor shopping mall we all know and love.
Willing to travel a bit further? 29th Street Mall has one new gem that is worth the trek.
Elison Rd.
Elison Rd., a California based brand, smartly wandered over to the Rocky Mountains to style the trendy girls of CU. With "easy living, nature, music, art, and boho indie vibes," what’s not to love about this new Pearl Street gem? Plus, most of their clothing is under $45.
Brandy Melville
At long last, Brandy’s many Boulder followers no longer need to wait three weeks to receive their cozy new pieces from the minimalistic, and still trendy, brand. The new store being conveniently located at 29th Street Mall won’t help with the fact that all Boulder girls dress way too similar (myself included).
Nani Nalu
Goodbye ordering one pieces from Amazon days before you leave for Aspen! Nani Nalu is the perfect place for frat formal attire this fall semester. Their Pearl Street staff is dedicated to fitting you in the perfect bikini or one-piece with sizes ranging from A to G cup and sizes 0 to 18, so you can comfortably get way too drunk, way too early at the hotel pool.
Le Pops
If you haven’t already checked out Le Pops, you really, really, really need to. The gourmet iced popsicles might cost a bit more than your average, but seeing as you can dip a chocolate pop into chocolate sauce and then coat all that in Oreo crumbs, it’s 100% worth it. Wander on down to Pearl Street West and get that perfect Instagram shot.
Warby Parker
Warby Parker, located along Pearl Street East, hopes "to offer designer eyewear at a revolutionary price," so what better place for the average college student to snag onto some trendy new frames?
Canoe Club
Canoe Club is all about community within the consumer culture of Pearl Street. With vintage Levi’s in stock (and some on sale, thank god), vintage concert tees, and plenty of denim, Canoe Club is for sure worth checking out. Maybe wait until you get your next paycheck, though. Those vintage Levi’s are not cheap.
Fior Gelato (West)
Fior di Latte’s sister location has more than just their well-loved gelato. The Pearl West location added Belgian waffles and soft serve gelato to their menu. You definitely need to check out this foodie hub.
