Wilson & Son Jewelers
Scarsdale (914) 723-0327 Mount Kisco (914) 241-4500 wilsonandsonjewelers.com
In Westchester, couples don’t say “I do” without
saying “hello” to Michael and Matthew Wilson first.
The two Gemological Institute of America grads are experts at appraising diamonds and carry stunning
lines of engagement rings—in addition to their own handcrafted line. The Wilson brothers also boast an impressive selection of men’s watches and their shop is the only authorized Rolex dealer in the county.
DANNY’S CYCLES
Mohegan Lake (914) 526-2453 Scarsdale (914) 723 3408 dannyscycles.com
Biking is huge, and we couldn’t be more pleased—especially be- cause we know we have the most knowledgeable bike professionals in our corner. Just starting out? Choose from the giant selection of bikes, including Specialized, Trek, and Raleigh bikes. The pros at Danny's will fit you and have you off and riding. More experienced cyclists go to Danny’s to find information on trails, races, and other events (the website alone is a font of knowledge).
ELEPHANT’S TRUNK
Mount Kisco
(914) 666-7666 elephantstrunk.com
No cookie-cutter couture
here for when we want to look fabulous—and unique—at a for- mal or semi-formal event. Here we'll find airy confections and gorgeous gowns from Constance McCardle, Ania Zofia, and Paula Varsalona; then accessorize with the shop's wide collection of jew- elry and handbags. Love the ser- vice here, too; when the original store burned down in 2000, the owners found replacement gowns
for all their customers (including 80 brides).
HELLER’S SHOES
Mount Kisco (914) 241-3777 Pleasantville (914) 769-9767 When it comes to quality
shoes for real working and walk- ing feet, no shop comes close to Heller’s. It stocks brands such
as Rockport, Clark, Merrell, Birkenstock, and Dansko in a huge array of sizes and widths for both men and women. It also has a large selection of slippers, sneakers, and boots, and Uggs in every style. The best thing about Heller’s, though, is the compe- tent, patient, experienced sales
staff. The Pleasantville store will work with you to find the perfect fit—even if that means trying on dozens of pairs of shoes, adding a heel lift, cutting an innersole, accommodating orthotics, or special-ordering. We’ve yet to see a foot massage, but we wouldn’t be completely surprised if we did.
HICKORY & TWEED
Armonk
(914) 273-3397 hickoryandtweed.com
When you’re looking to buy bikes or ski equipment, you want to talk to people who regularly hit the slopes, test new snowboards,
and pedal on the county trails. At Hickory & Tweed, outdoor junk- ies buy from real, tried-and-true sports enthusiasts. The staff has a genuine passion for bikes, skis, and the Great Outdoors. Leave it to owner Skip Beitzel, who began working at Hickory & Tweed in high school, and his team of ex- perts to outfit your next skiing
or cycing expedition—just look for the bright red buildings (after half a century, they’re a landmark in Armonk).
