Las Vegas Mixtape #17: Sammy Hagar’s Poolside Paradise, Balla’s Elegant Italian Soul, and More — Track #3: Sin Amor Studio @Arts District

Track #3: Sin Amor Studio @Arts District

Walking around the Arts District, it’s easy to stick to the central hub of activity on Main St. But pleasures also abound around the corner on buzzy Commerce St. That’s where you’ll find unique places like the nautical-themed Stray Pirate bar, Akin Cooperative (a self-described “lifestyle boutique featuring local artisans and a splash of beer and wine”), and the Good Wolf clothing/home decor store. On the same street is the intriguingly named Sin Amor Studio.

“Sin amor” means “loveless” in Spanish, but it’s easy to fall in love with this imaginative shop. It sells everything from luxury vintage clothing, bags, shoes, hats, and costume jewelry to paintings and framed photos of Las Vegas and Mexico by Latino and Chicano artists.

Owner Ruby Romero passionately curates the whole store with a Chicano influence that reflects her background in Vegas and LA. On a recent visit, Ruby proudly pointed out beautiful handmade necklaces from Mexico, where she sources items.

Romero’s dream with Sin Amor was to create a place where fashionistas, artists, low riders, and punk rockers could come together. She has succeeded. The store, which opened in late 2021, “is always evolving,” she says and reflects her keen, wide-ranging indie taste.
