Boston shopping

[lucy92]

yes i remember allston beat! they had cool band t shirts there...it was almost the boston equivalent of "nyc's trash and vaudeville".
the last thing i bought there was gsus (its a dutch brand) shirt with a panda on it, a few months before it closed.

i remember being inspired because carrie from sex and the city wore a similar t-shirt

Do you guys know any good tailors in Boston? I bought something online that I need to get a zipper put in.

^Newbury Tailors.... they're pretty pricey, but worth it.

or Bijan Cleaners on Columbus and Mass ave. has a good tailor

I'm going to Boston in a week or so, where's the best place to get jeans?
My friend wants Citizens of Humanity Kelly Bootcut so it's pretty basic, but where has the best selection of brands?

 

[cutxpaste]

Barneys and National Jean Co. have a good selection of jeans.

 

[miu_miu]

Thanks cutx
The jeans she wants are on National Jeans co. website but we never heard of it before so I'm glad you recommend it

 

[cutxpaste]

If you go to National Jean Co, you might run into me... it's like 5 minutes away from my house

Ugh...shopping on Newbury today was such a let down.

 

[cutxpaste]

Does anyone know if they sell Alexander McQueen skull scarves at Alan Bilzerian?

 

[baddabling]

oui...in the mens area

 

[cutxpaste]

Hmm, I should go look them.... expect the one I want is a pink-ish coral color and not very masculine

 

[cutxpaste]

that was stupid, i meant "look go at them"

 

[cutxpaste]

Ok, so I went and looked at them today. They have the same scarves at both locations and they are all beautiful, they just didn't have the one I was looking for

 

[baddabling]

aww
call the mcqueen store in NYC

 

[Ianastar]

Ive seen some of those scarves at Barney's in the mens section as well.
