I think there is also a Burberry. I do remember seeing Marc Jacobs, but didnt get to go in. Im going up next month to get my apartment and do some Bday shopping, so my main stop is MJ.

I don't think people in boston try to completely WOW each other with their amazing fashion sense, I think they just try to look nice. Some trends do make me sick (I live in boston) like the vera bradley bags. My best friend has one and I dont have the heart to tell her how much I hate the bag because I love her so much. Sometimes I just want to scream IT LOOKS LIKE ONE OF MY GRANDMA'S KNITTING BAGS!!! Anywho...moving on from the vera bradley rant, I like to think that seeing most of the population in boston is college students and alumni, some of them DO have some style because they read fashion magazines,ect. Personally I think my sister is very stylish, I'll post pics in a sec (she doesn't mind, she loves the attention)
One thing about Boston style I don't like - a lot of ugly shoes.
Also, people seem to be obsessed with those hideous Vera Bradley bags, and the ubiquitous UGGs, which I absolutely refuse to buy even if my feet turn blue from the cold.
And in terms of Boston being boring and having no shopping - when you come from an area where everything closes at 9:30 and the only remotely stylish store is a Nordstrom's, Boston seems like the most exciting city in the world. I love Boston.
I agree.. Can't stand Vera Bradleys and UGGs, but I'm surprised to hear you've been seeing a lot of ugly shoes. I specifically hold off on buying shoes until I'm home (I go to school in VA and live in Boston) and can buy them on Newbury. Down between Exeter and Hanover Streets (I think) are several really good shoe places. The Steve Madden is nice, Thom Browne (not the same Thom Browne that does suits, I guess) has two store fronts, and the Jasmine Sola accessories boutique sometimes has fun sneakers, etc. There are a few more in that direction but I never remember their names.
No tax on clothing is another reason I prefer to shop up in Boston. That, and I already know where everything is. I have easy access to DC and Richmond but am completely content to do my shopping in Massachusetts.
Do any of you know the address of the jasmine sola discount warehouse thing in boston? I wanna say its near brighton but I'm not sure >.> I wanna be able to go there loads next year when I'm moved into the city.
On the note of steve madden shoes, the infamous 'stevie's slippers' at my school make me sick, yknow the ones that look like dryer lint knitted together and formed into clog slippers. -barf-
