ONE OF THE BEST things about shopping in the Bay is getting to visit the local boutiques. San Francisco is filled with fashionistas ready to help you find your next wardrobe staple. There are plenty of luxury stores in San Francisco, so it can be tricky to know where to begin, so here are four of the best women-owned boutiques to start your shopping.

HERO SHOP

Hero Shop is a chic sun-filled spot. Owner and Bay Area native, Emily Holt, uses her experience as a former Vogue editor to curate a collection of designers she thinks fit her impressive clientele list. Situated in the Tenderloin, Hero Shop aims to progress San Francisco as a fashion community. Mixing designers like Brock and Gabriela Hearst with local brands, the space is stocked with quality apparel, footwear and accessories. Hero Shop also has gift and home decor items. When asked to suggest an SF staple Holt asserts, “You can't go wrong with a good pair of jeans. We love Levi's and are excited by a new brand called Trave, which makes a great wide leg style.” She also recommends Of Rare Origin earrings to add some San Francisco eccentricity. 982 Post St., 415.829.3129, heroshopsf.com
