Jamaica

Every visit home to Jamaica turns into a shopping expedition for me. In Mo’Bay, a stop at the Gallery of West Indian Art is a must for their carved wooden “spotties” and colorful Caribbean oils and watercolors. Nearby Schatzie sells a collection of men’s and women’s linen and cotton resort wear that’s versatile, simple and stylish. I never leave Kingston without a look-see at Bridget’s, where they’ve been making handcrafted fashion-forward leather sandals for more than 30 years. And in Negril, I always swing by the boutique at Rock House for cool T-island-themed shirts and colorful clutch bags from Treasure Beach design house Callalloo.
