Usually when I am abroad I am always trying to find cute shops and galleries that offer items from local designers or craftsmen. That is why I want to share this nice spot with you - Klyuch (ключ - "key" in Bulgarian). It is a shop for contemporary clothes, accessories and jewellery by popular Bulgarian authors.
The shop is small but can offer a lot. Just open all the lockers and you will find an immense variety of jewellery. Actually, you can buy everything you need for a modern city appearance - a dress, a bag and some accessories of course. The prices vary and depend on the item you buy.
If you plan to travel to the Black Sea coast, recently Klyuch opened a second shop located in the resort Sinemorets. You can check their splendid collection of goods there as well.
Klyuch is on the same street as Vintage Sofia so if you wander around this area I recommend you visit both places.
