It’s no secret that Brooklyn has soared in popularity over the past few years. It’s gotten so hip, in fact, that even my avoid-Brooklyn-at-all-costs Manhattan friends have begrudgingly fallen in love with the borough :-) Amazing food, lovely boutiques, quaint brownstone lined streets, and a newly built giant sports/concert arena (ok jury’s still out on that one) – what’s not to love? Here are a few local goodies that make me proud to call this place home.

Love your Brooklyn pride. And all of these items actually!
The scarf is beautiful. They have some pretty great clutches too. Also, that lip bangle just makes me smile. So unique!
Loving that great scarf :)

I spent very little time in Brooklyn when I visited NY last year – something that I now regret but luckily that means I have an excuse to come back. Loving that slate cheese board!
I didn’t know you lived in Brooklyn, how fun! Love the colors on that scarf!
Remember when Miranda decided to move to Brooklyn in Sex and the City! GASP! But you are so right that it has really come into its own :) Love your picks, esecially that clutch!

I’m all about that tshirt – is it okay if I’m not from Brooklyn to wear it?
Really cute stuff. I may have to check some of these stores out!
I love Brooklyn…it’s definitely a fun place to find unique things! I love the silk ink blot scarf and slate cheeseboard…both are really pretty!
I’ve never been to Brooklyn, but now I want to go! Maybe I’ll get the chance when my cousin gets married in the city next Spring.

Two sets of friends of mine are making the move back into Manhattan after the rent on their apts in Brooklyn (Brooklyn Heights and Williamsburg) became more expensive than apartments across the river! Go figure :) I love those slate cheeseboards so much.
I’m still (pleasantly) surprised by how popular BK has gotten. But there is some really good stuff coming out of there, no doubt about it.
I always find SO many great pieces in Brooklyn–especially jewelry!

Ohh, great items! I’ve only visited Brooklyn once before, I definitely need to go back soon.
Love this idea for a roundup. Nothing like supporting local businesses!
