2 Best Shopping in Palm Springs and the Desert Resorts, California

In the Uptown Design District, Flannery Exchange is a photogenic mixed-use minimall with on-trend boutiques, an art gallery, the Café La Jefa coffeehouse, and Bar Chingona (which serves modern Latin food and sassy cocktails from an Airstream trailer). Grab a chaga-charged latte to sip and stroll through the shelves of stationery (Bobo Palm Springs), zero-waste goods (it refills), vintage threads (Joyful Living), and jewelry and gifts (Covet). Or pop open a canned kombucha to enjoy in a swinging chair on the sunny patio. Each vendor has different hours so check before you go.

Several independently owned, high-end, and Goop-approved boutiques coexist in an iconic E. Stewart Williams building to supply those with good taste in need of ceramics, abstract art, statement swimwear and sunglasses, planters, linens, throw pillows, jewelry, and so much more.
