We found our sweet spot–University Village in Seattle!

University Village…just the mention of it sends a thrill down a shopper’s spine! UVillage is a beautiful outdoor shopping center with an exciting variety of large retailers as well as local shops.

There were so many options for original, fun gifts, but we were able to narrow the choices down for you! Here is our Valentine’s Day gift guide brought to you by Lastseenwearing and University Village!
