Urban Indigo

The small boutique that took over the former home of Ear Witness last year is taking over as the best gift shop on Lakeshore Avenue. With a colorful kids’ section that’s full to bursting, Dia de los Muertos statuary, funky cards, antiques, and jewelry, this may be the avenue’s most eclectic mix to date - and it works perfectly.
Our favorite locals-only items are cards featuring vintage and new scenes of Oakland. We also love the prices, which are totally reasonable. Walk out with stylish votive glasses (tea light included) at $5 each, or a sterling necklace for $22. Items are priced to sell, and the store’s success indicates that the locals are set to buy.
