Shopping

From the biggest names in fashion, locally owned boutiques with one-of-a-kind finds and outdoor gear shops, there are few places in the world that rival the shopping Aspen offers in a small area. More than 200 shops, from home furnishings, kids' gear, jewelry, and all the big names in fashion can be found within one square mile - the only complaint is having too many choices. And, Aspen's consignment shops give a new meaning to "one person's trash is another's treasure" with couture cast-offs and barely touched designer duds at bargain prices.
