As added incentive, they're now holding a back-to-school sale for ASU students. Just bring your ID or enter the promo could student20 at their online store for 20 percent off your purchase.

6. GROWop

GROWop carries an eclectic blend of new and old, threads and décor. Although they're not as heavy on the clothing as Butter Toast, GROWop has all those perfect little details to finish off a new apartment or outfit, such as clutches, scarves, candles, and jewelry. You might also want to take in the staging throughout the store as inspiration for your own place.

Handmade pillows in assorted colors, perfect for your naked furniture ($25 each).
