Selection
Editor Pick
→ What it lacks in square footage, Me & Emmi more than makes up for in selection. Its buyer has impeccable taste and stocks only the best of the best from our favorite contemporary designers. We loved every piece of Milly, Diane von Furstenberg, Kooba, and Vince in the store. Also, don’t miss their killer selection of Paige Premium Denim and Tom Ford sunglasses, both of which are must-haves for any true style maven.

Place To Buy A Suit
Reader Pick
→ When it’s time to buy a new suit, Tom Daskalos’ shop in Broadway Plaza is nearly always a man’s first stop. And, with good reason—Daskalos has been selling custom and ready-to-wear men’s clothing for more than 50 years. The store has come a long way from the little tailor shop in Concord, but its impeccable customer service and attention to detail haven’t changed a bit. Carrying classic, fashion-forward lines from Ermenegildo Zegna, Brioni, and Canali, Daskalos has mastered the balance between classic and contemporary.

Sale Rack
Editor Pick
→ Savvy shopaholics know Flaunt for its constantly updated stock of hip designer clothing and accessories, but its sale rack is what keeps us clamoring for more. That ever-changing collection means an ever-changing pile of sale items, usually at 50–75 percent off. On our last visit, we spied wedges by Charlotte Ronson, a fantastic cropped peacoat by Theory, and a handful of fabulous bags by Goldenbleu and Alexis Hudson—all at half price.

Opulence for You, located in Downtown Danville is my pick for best Salon in the East Bay. Susanna
Stroberg and stylists offer multiple beauty services, but they are exceptional in coloring, cutting and
styling hair. From the 1st day I walked in for a much needed Color Correction and a cut, to years later, I have always been more than happy with the results!!! The whole staff always provides professional results with a a friendly, personal attitude. I have recommended their services to many of my friends and all of them have been super satisfied clients. Thank you, Opulence......
Check out Belle Maison Children's Boutique in Alamo!!! This place has the cutest kids clothes you have ever seen!!!!
The Mermaid Lounge in Walnut Creek offers the BEST facial. It was like a vacation in Hawaii for 90 minutes. I felt relaxed and pampered. Julaine Moore is incredibly talented. She will make you feel welcome and at home. It's location is in the heart of down town but you feel miles away...The Mermaid Lounge gets my vote for best facial in the East Bay.
My choice for best day spa is Jane Norman. From Jane's warm welcome to her amazing skin care programs, Jane is your best choice for keeping your skin healthy and looking young!! I also recommend a massage with Lawrence at Jane Norman. Lawrence's tremendous sports back ground was key to helping me with soarness from my work out regimen.
Marlies Taylor Skincare is best of both worlds. Her treatments offer a spa like experience, but with medical results. I had heard a lot about her from a friend of mine, so I knew she was very knowledgeable and skilled, but she actually exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Marlies to anyone who wants to see a real improvement in their skin. She is an expert, hands down.
