Jacksonville is home to Yoanna House, winner of America's Next Top Model in 2004. Yoanna has since become a big name in the fashion industry, gracing the pages of different fashion magazines, and being the face of famous designer brands. Why am I saying this? It's because Jacksonville takes pride in Yoanna's success, and in turn Yoanna should thank Jacksonville for giving her some of the best shopping destinations in Florida metro.

Here's some of the shopping hotspots in Jacksonville metro:

St. John's Town Center
One of the best shopping destinations in Jacksonville because of its outdoor feel, and also because of its modern interiors. Add the fact that they have a good selection of stores such as Old Navy, Costco, Target, and Nobles.

Also, St. John's also boasts of different restaurants that offers delectable foods such as Ted's Montana Grill, Sushi House 2, Mimi's Cafe, The Grape, Panera Bread, and Starbucks. They also have high end shops such as Louis Vuitton, Betsy Johnson, Juicy Couture, and Lacoste which makes shopping at St. John's a truly fun experience.

Here are some of the odd, but rather enjoyable places to shop when in Jacksonville.

Morning Glory
This shop is for the artsy people who love stationery and other novelty items, and greeting cards. And to all Sanrio fans, this is your haven since Morning Glory has origami or cute Sanrio, Japanese, and Korean stationery supplies.

They also sell bags, purses, cellphone charms, and other adorable stuff that is proudly made from Asia.
