Designer clothes by Bugatchi, Road Apparel, Tommy Bahama, Mezon and Witness can be found at A Clothes Encounter in Lakewood Ranch. Founded in 2007 by local residents, the idea was to sell trendy, stylish clothes at good prices, along with jewelry, shoes, handbags and accessories to fit the casual elegance of the people in the area. It offers in-house credit, gift wrapping, layaway and even delivers. Men's and women's fashions are its specialty. Check out its Facebook page for monthly specials and new arrivals.
