It feels like you're ransacking your chic older sister's closet when you shop at the Powder Room. Even the smallest of available spaces is crammed with eye-catching prints, flirty dresses, and funky jewelry. And you're tempted to try on everything you set eyes on. Luckily, none of the goodies in this adorable boutique cost over $50. Owner Cindy Speare buys from wholesale stores in Los Angeles several times a year to ensure her merchandise is trendy and affordable. "It's just silly to spend $250 on a blouse," she says. "It's a blouse! Once you walk out of that store, you'll be lucky to resell it for $25 at a garage sale. You don't need to spend that kind of money to look cute." The compliments you'll get while wearing one of Speare's fashionable frocks confirm just that. Even better, your sister will finally be the one begging to raid your wardrobe.?Erika Hobart
