A boutique that nails the balance between trendy and wearable. Fringe carries women's clothing, accessories, and jewelry with a boho-Southern sensibility. Their buyers have an eye for pieces that feel unique without being impractical. Open Mon–Fri 10am–6pm, Sat 10am–3pm.

Even if you're not planning a wedding, Bridal by Crown is worth a visit for the eye candy alone. Stunning gowns, veils, and accessories in a beautifully appointed shop. They also carry special occasion dresses for proms, galas, and formal events.

The Kandy Shoppe — Sweet Treats & Gifts

Plant City

Old-fashioned candy counter meets creative gift shop. Pick-and-mix candies, chocolate-dipped everything, and seasonal themed baskets make this a hit with kids and adults alike. Perfect for housewarming gifts, birthday surprises, or treating yourself.

Shopping Route
