American Threads is a locally-owned boutique that offers the latest trends in women's clothing at affordable prices. It has frequent events, rotating specials and an active Facebook community. Go there to see the shop's latest shipments, from faux fur coats to artsy headbands.

The store carries tops like tanks with unique detail, vests, ultra-skinny jeans, cargo pants, hats, handbags and shoes. Most items are under $50, and American Threads carries hard-to-find designers. There are two locations in the North metro, with this one inside The Avenue Forsyth. It's on the same side of the street as Straw Dog, Francesca's Collections and Lavender, so for those looking for local boutique shopping it's all in one spot. American Threads takes pride in providing friendly customer service.
