Weekend shopping around the bay

This weekend's shopping events characterize the eclectic nature of the local style scene with everything from hipster tag sales, to return of Indie Mart happening between now and next week including:
Summer Sale at Anica Boutique: (On-going) If you've been reading SW for any amount of time you've probably figured out that we LOVE this polk-gulch gem. A haven for cutting edge style, the shop has been supporting local and emerging designers since it's opening and continually stocks a great balance of big names and hard to find pieces, and when those pieces are marked down 30-50% what's not to love!
Friday: Rockridge Summer Jazz and Wine stroll An enclave of independent boutiques and fab restaurants, Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood has long been considered one of the best shopping areas in the East Bay. Check all the area has to offer durring the Jazz and wine stroll when business stay open late, and offer deep discounts on merchandise, oh and the vino flows freely.

Saturday: Trunk show, swap meet and live networking event, The Fashion Tour which kicks off at the Parlor on Saturday, boasts a bevvy of events in it's line-up including, make-up demos, photo shoots, and sample sale and lots of drink specials.
Also on Saturday:

Everyone's favorite vintage and new curated union square boutique,Shotwell, is offering up the antiques this saturday with the first ever Tag Sale. Peruse the wares for one-of-a kind knick-knacks 12-5PM
Sunday: One could easily consider The Indie-Mart, with its DIY values and commitment to the handmade movement to be the epitome of the San Francisco scene.
