Women's business casual fashion store. Like Gap, but for your mom. :)

Two floors of high-end guy's gear. Funky styles, such as the European shabby chic "ripped" look, and earthy jewlery. Find designer jeans (in guy language- "weird pockets") and all sorts of clothing to stylize. No Red Sox gear here. Hours are random, and rumored by locals to be "barely open".

Great, cutting edge designer with a flare for the showy. Great for show-stopping dressed that make any body type look ultra stylish! Sometimes girly, sometimes sultry, and always a hit on the credit card- but it's worth the investment. Warning: don't wear to wedding is you don't want the reputation of "out doing the bride". Shipping anywhere and personalized service.

Girly, delicate, innovative, and flirty. Clothing by designer Christiane Celle. Focusing mainly on their classic staple, the Pazzi dress, or the wrap dress, Calypso is cool resort fashion that can be city chic. The staff in this Newbury Street store is helpful and fun.

Hours:
Mon-Sat: 7am-7pm
Sun: 10am-5pm
(In by 8am, ready by 5:30pm)

Classic fashion for the elite. Often associated with high quality and timeless fashion- Kenneth Cole is one of the staples on Newbury Street. When the Kenneth Cole shopper is not cocktailing on the Cape in his Nantucket redsies, he'll go here and find the a classic black turtleneck sweater to combat the winter's cold.

After over 50 years in Europe, H&M has joined meatballs and bikini teams as the only worthwhile Swedish exports to America. The downtown store brings Bostonians the hottest euro-chic styles (and mind-numbingly long lines), with clothing for men, women and kids. H&M is high fashion at shockingly low prices; while you won't be able to expect the style or quality of any garment to last you more than a couple of seasons, at $15 for a dress and $2 for three pairs of earrings, you can't really go wrong. H&M also consistently updates its newest fashions. Always busy, it's fun to poke in. If this Downtown Crossing location does not work for you, you can also visit H&M at Cambridgeside Galleria or the couture H&M on Newbury Street. It should not be missed for the stylish hungry who don't have a huge bankroll to spend on clothes. The Newbury location is opened M-SA from 10:00 AM - 9:30 PM, Sunday 11:00 AM - 7:00 PM. It is to be noted that if you're looking for men's clothing, only the Newbury Street and the Downtown Crossing stores carry men's stuff. Don't ask me why? That's just the way it is. It was annoying when I visited the other stores only to find out that they only carry women's clothing.

Plaids, leathers, and all things pretty-prep. This is a retail store for men, women, and, children. Great quality and timeless pieces make this shop irresistable. They offer water-proof jackets- and for Boston, that is priceless.
