Small Business Saturday: Long Island's Best Local Shops to Explore | Laffey Real Estate

Where are you shopping for Small Business Saturday? This unofficial holiday, the Saturday after Thanksgiving, is all about recognizing the immense value small businesses bring to our communities. Our real estate agents have done a lot of shopping in small stores around Long Island over the years. Here are some small shops they think are worth visiting this year.

  • Swag Boutique - 74 Middle Neck Road, Great Neck, NY 11021
    Swag Boutique is located just around the corner from many of our Great Neck homes for sale, and their name tells you everything you need to know about their fashion philosophy. All the tops, bottoms, dresses, jackets, and accessories sold here have a uniquely bold flair that will turn heads. Don't forget to check out their incredible luxury loungewear collection before you leave! These soft-printed sets are perfect for homebodies who want to stay cozy and look stylish while doing it. 

  • Pink and Honey - 250 S. Service Road, Roslyn Heights, NY 11577
    Pink and Honey is a relaxed fashion boutique near our Roslyn Heights homes for sale that features a mix of casual and formal styles. Their inventory includes trend-setting pieces from top brands like Olivaceous and Le Lis, making it easy for you to find something stunning to round out your wardrobe. Consider picking up a few of their exclusive handmade accessories to put the finishing touch on your new look.  

  • Port Pop Up Boutique – 142 Main St., Port Washington, NY 11050
    Port Pop Up Boutique began as a simple seasonal pop-up shop selling samples and overstock from top brands in New York's fashion district. They have since expanded to a full storefront near our Port Washington homes for sale and receive new items from big names like Femme Fatale and Just Black Denim every day of the week. Visit them to pick up new premium pieces for a fraction of the price you'd pay at a typical clothing shop. 

  • Chrison & Bellina Boutique - 24 Audrey Ave., Oyster Bay, NY 11771
    Chrison & Bellina is a family-run gift shop that stocks beautiful and unusual items from all over the world. Whether you're looking for gorgeous crystal glassware and chandeliers, elegant stationery, or charmingly kitschy knickknacks, you can find it all here. Leave a little extra time during your visit to look at their Christmas displays—they're one of the things the shop is best known for around our Oyster Bay homes for sale.

  • Angel - 372 Great Neck Road, Great Neck, NY 11021
    Angel is more than just a fashion shop—it's also a fashion design brand. Everything you see in-store is an exclusive creation dreamed up by their talented design team. Their bold, eye-catching styles are made with high-quality materials and are sure to become treasured pieces in any fashionista's wardrobe. However, the crown jewel of their product line is their extensive vegan leather collection. These pieces look and feel just like real leather but contain no animal products or by-products, making them a more ethical alternative to traditional leather apparel.

Long Island and its surrounding counties are booming, and more and more local entrepreneurs are setting up shop. Contact us today to start searching for the perfect Long Island property to call your own.
