Shopping Around: Sun Valley Village

Whether you’re staying at the Lodge or live in Hailey, spending the day at Sun Valley Village is a must. You just can’t afford to miss the kid-friendly restaurants, fancy clothing shops, and souvenirs. For example:

Valley Couture

Dress yourself to the nines with one-of-a-kind sweaters from Panache. We found this fantastic Thomas Wylde long cashmere hoodie complete with a sparkly silver design on the back. Prices vary.

Local Flavor

Sun Valley Signatures has an assortment of Sun Valley goodies from sweatpants to t-shirts to Sun Valley-flavored mustard. Perhaps best of all, however, is a limited edition black and white photograph entitled Trail Creek Sleigh Ride by Kevin Syms. Unframed $595, framed $1275.

The Gift of Giving

Chances are you owe someone a hostess gift. Lucky for you, Sun Valley Gifts has a whole bundle of goods. We liked just about everything from the sparkly Sun Valley t-shirt to chic looking thank you notes. Our favorites were the martini glasses by Love My Martini. Each glass is painted with a different type of martini; for example, the dirty martini glass is covered in cute looking swear words. Each glass costs $25.

Sweeten Up

Shopping tends to make a person hungry. While you can certainly dine at one of Sun Valley’s several restaurants, you can also splurge at the Chocolate Foundry. There are classics like jellybellys and hand made truffles in just about every flavor. Prices and flavors vary.

And...back on the slopes

After a day of shopping Sun Valley Village you’ll be better equipped than ever to hit the slopes – equipment and fashion accessories for downhill, cross-country, boarding and all are available at Brass Ranch.
