About Time, which was featured in the Daily News and Time Out New York, spits out the essence of Brooklyn onto an inventory of fresh fashions and urban styles. Myriad brands reside within the store, from Krow Hill to Dan Cruz, all ready to outfit shoppers from snappily dressed dudes to borough-beloved ladies. T-shirts (starting at $14.50) emblazoned with slick, eye-snatching designs depict material from paper-sheaf skulls ($25) to evocative sketches of Franklin Avenue ($35); they pair well with accessible accessories, such as a purple-brimmed Dan Cruz hat ($35) or a No Label watch that celebrates the patriotic pursuits of form, function, and time traveling ($25).

Founded by two moms, Scribble Press is a fully equipped art studio that enables children, families, and lone adults to write, illustrate, and publish their own books. Wee wordsmiths can choose their art supplies from a monstrous marker wall, then sit down at a project table and begin their vision. Those inhabited by neatly organized and color-coded creative muses can choose to mold their opus from scratch, while Scribble Press's story starters and fill-in-the-blank Cueprints provide inspiration to hesitant hands. Feel free to bring in photos to add a level of gritty realism to stories about unicorn space travel. Following the final stroke of marker, books are printed, bound, and taken home on the same day to allow for timely gift giving, show-and-tells, and international book tours.

Whether you're a sports fan, an athlete, or both, Modell's Sporting Goods has the gear to keep you outfitted on and off the field. Though the family-owned store has been around since 1889, its goods are anything but old-fashioned. Shoppers can peruse the racks for top-notch athletic apparel from brands such as Nike and Under Armour, or load up on merchandise from their favorite sports franchises—Modell's carries jerseys, hats, and novelty items from the NHL, MLB, NFL, and NBA, to name a few. In addition to clothing and shoes, Modell's fits hands and feet with sporting goods of all kinds, from lacrosse sticks and golf clubs to rollerblades and giant foam fingers.

Make pretty—a motto to live by, and one that graces Kensie's most recent digital look books. The brand—launched by Vancouver natives Lani and Eric Karls in 1994—epitomizes an exuberant, bohemian-chic aesthetic. Creative director Lani travels the world, gleaning runway trends that she later reinterprets and transforms into wearable wardrobe staples. Such pieces can be found in closets and future fashion time capsules of celebrities such as Taylor Swift and Nicole Richie, as well as in the glossy pages of magazines such as Marie Claire and Glamour.

It looks a little like a UPS truck that’s been driven through a glam-rock concert. But the only velvet goldmine patrons will find inside this mobile boutique are those hanging on racks amid other fashionable finds. For owners Danielle Mazzurco and Lisa Dunn, owning a clothing-store stuck inside some mall seemed neither exciting nor convenient for customers. To solve the problem, they drive their signature pink-and-black truck through New York and New Jersey outfitting visitors and their friends with rare brands of clothing, jewelry, and accessories.
