Holiday Shopping Guide 2017: Fashion
Independent retailers often stock those special, one-of-a-kind items that you won’t find anywhere else. Plus, when you shop at a locally-owned business, your money stays in the community and supports the home-grown artists and producers who helped make the items you purchased.
To help inspire your holiday shopping this season, we’ve compiled this list of fashion products from some amazing Futurpreneur-supported businesses.
