We did the Museum tour which was cool but knowing what I know now probably should have just gone to China to see. You would think a business that is supposed to be celebrating the culture and crafts would carry nothing but authentic made in Mexico items disappointing to me.

During our visit I was grooving to 70s/disco/motown. It was upbeat and certainly set the mood for fun shopping/browsing experience. She seemed to be enjoying the music as well - she was cheerful and friendly. They had locally made products from sauces, to stickers, to textiles to jewelry, candy...so much...definitely recommend checking out their online store if you aren't able to visit in person...They have over 8 pages of products you can browse online. I love their magnets selections as well I purchased a mood ring that had a cat face on it. I was able to find hot sauce for a friend. It was sauce made in Texas too! I got a sassy fun notebook for a friend, stickers. I can't wait to buy more stuff online. If you purchase more than $75 - you can save on shipping. The prices I felt were very reasonable, especially given that a lot is supporting local artists. I highly recommend for a FUN shopping experience.

It's essentially a one stop shop because they even have food here. It's a shoppers dream but definitely a specific type. Prices vary from shop to shop of course but most stuff is seemingly reasonable. As for the employees it was a pretty good vibe, everyone seemed to get along like family which gives this place the ultimate vibe check. Walking through the stores you hear employees and customers talking, singing, and laughing almost like family. That's what it's all about and the reason it gets four stars despite it being a bit run down and not my cup of tea. Would recommend for sum!

My friend bought a dress there a couple of days ago and told me about it, so I popped over since it was close to my hotel. The lady working there (the owner?) was very friendly and professional, she helped me pick out a great top to go with the pants I bought. She even threw in a free pair of earrings, which was awesome. Reasonable prices too, the pants were only like $30 and they're good quality and comfortable. 10/10, highly recommend if you find yourself in downtown San Antonio. I will come back someday!

There are many places in San Antonio that sell Mexican-style blouses (even HEB has their own line) but the bad thing is that they all look the same... you know what I mean, the typical white blouse with flowers around the neck. That is why I decided to get mine from La Casa Frida. They have very unique styles that you won't find anywhere else and will make you stand out during your Fiesta parties.

We can wander through just about every store, critique the latest styles, admire great finds, laugh at questionable fashion choices, and somehow entertain ourselves for hours. This adventure took us to the Shops at La Cantera, one of his favorite shopping destinations. Unlike a traditional enclosed mall, La Cantera is an open-air shopping center where you're strolling from store to store in the Texas sunshine. Considering we've had what feels like a month of nonstop rain, I was thrilled that Mother Nature finally gave us a bright, sunny day. While the rain has been good for the lawn and plants, I am definitely ready for it to stop. We started near Nordstrom and leisurely made our way toward Zara, popping in and out of stores along the way. One of my favorite parts of shopping is discovering what's new. I was pleasantly surprised to see several stores that had opened since my last visit. Exploring those new spaces made the trip even more enjoyable. You can find a variety of price points at this mall, making it appealing to a broad range of folks. By the end of the day, my brother scored a few stylish pieces from Zara Men, while I somehow managed to leave empty-handed. Surprisingly, I didn't mind one bit. The best purchase of the day wasn't something that fit in a shopping bag...it was quality time spent catching up, sharing plenty of laughs, and enjoying a leisurely afternoon of shop surfing with my favorite shopping buddy...my big brother.

One of the places in San Antonio she prefers is The Shops at La Cantera. It's this beautiful, high-end, open-air shopping center that honestly feels more like a park than a mall, thanks to all the shaded pathways, greenery, and water features. It's the perfect layout for a relaxed day out together, especially since we can stroll from store to store outside rather than being cooped up indoors. What makes it ideal for these outings is that it has a great mix of everything. His mom has a few specific spots she absolutely loves hitting up every single time, from the big anchor stores like Nordstrom and Dillard's to some of her favorite specialty boutiques. It really takes the stress out of our monthly outings because we already know the layout, the parking is easy, and there are plenty of spots to grab a bite when she needs a break. It's just a consistently great experience every time we go.

There are a number of shops at the Pearl, but this appears to be one of the more unique ones. The store feels a bit whimsical and little fantastical. You can find t-shirts, jewelry boxes (not traditional ones but one with Día Dos Muertos faces), stickers, coffee cups, to name just a few items. I almost bought one of those ceramic jewelry boxes, but I talked myself out of it as I have several jewelry boxes without a lot of jewelry. Their prices are very reasonable, so your dollar goes a long ways in this store. The store staff was super friendly and helpful. They can point you to the specific part of the store where you might have an interest in their goods.
