They even host some interactive events, such as an upcoming Clothing Swap and Repair Day, later on this month. Trust.

You might be saying, "What is this guy doing reviewing a dress shop?"…read more Well, you obviously don't realize how good I look in these dresses. Also, I'm not writing this review for you, so pipe down. And I'm only kind of writing this review for my wife, who ACTUALLY looks good in these dresses. I'm writing this review for me. Selfish as it may seem, I don't care if this shop has the sweetest staff that always helps their customers find whatever it is they are looking for, and makes smart suggestions about other items that might be of interest. I do care a little bit that for some reason, they always happen to stock at least a couple dresses that make my wife look absolutely stunning.* But I really, truly care about not having to wander up and down Newbury Street in the rain, searching for this boutique that we come back to every time we're in Boston. Now that I've written this review, I will remember this dress shop, and we can just come straight here and avoid wandering into other, inferior boutiques. Also, there's a stool in the corner where I can write this review as my wife shops. I like sitting down. _____________ *That should probably be reversed. My wife makes those dresses look good.

If you are unique in style and want what is in your imagination. The style no other retailer…read moreboutique has, and you want to be the only one OKW is the place to go. This boutique being small and cozy with rolls of fabric and creations in the work, is only apart of it. The best part is the creator, the mastermind behind making you unique, and thats Waheeda. I was going to a wedding in March 2020 and desperately wanted to stand out in my uniqueness, and someone referred her. I hesitated in calling because everyone else was saying you should have done this 3-6 months ago, and to be honest, this was last minute, so i said, why not? They can just say no. I called and explained everything, and without hesitation, she made time in her schedule. I called this professionalism when every deadline was met, and i walked away very pleased with her creation and how she catered to my unique style is the best feeling. I am writing this review now, a year later because of covid, the wedding was canceled, and the dress/jumper did not have its debut, and i just tried it on, and i still love it. I wanted to thank Waheeda for all her effort, time, understanding, and patience to pay attention to the details and made me feel like i was her only client.

I took her a dress that fit me perfectly and asked to have it made in different fabrics. Though it appeared simple, the dress was actually very complicated and had a lot of details. Waheeda helped me pick two great fabrics and a couple of months later I had the dresses. They are perfect. Every detail was done with care and attention and the fabrics she helped me choose are lovely. I actually love the reproductions more than the original - maybe having something made just for you makes it feel better, or maybe she put a little extra tailoring in them, but they are just exquisite and timeless. The fabrics she carries are very high quality. I chose an organic hemp from Oregon and an Italian cotton that is stiff, with a slight sheen. Both fabrics are of a higher quality than the original. It didn't seem possible that the original could be improved upon, but that's what happened. Okw is the place to go if you want high quality tailoring or dress making. Absolutely recommended for women who care about quality clothing and great fit. Waheeda and Ibrahim will take care of you and make you feel beautiful.

Friends + Family is a vintage clothing and home goods store in Harvard Square with a rotating…read moreinventory and a well considered aesthetic that makes it worth stopping into if you are already in the area. We walked into a space that feels curated rather than packed, with the kind of selection that rewards slower browsing. The inventory covers vintage clothing, watches, and home goods across a range of styles, and the curation leans toward quality over volume in a way that separates it from the more packed thrift format we have seen elsewhere. The stock turns over regularly enough that repeat visits tend to surface something new. The home goods section in particular gets positive attention from visitors who were not necessarily expecting that side of the shop. The store is dog friendly, a small detail that adds to the casual neighborhood feel of the place. Pricing runs higher than a standard thrift shop, and we noticed some items are priced well above their actual origin or value. There have been items we found that are fast fashion or dropshipped but are being priced as vintage, which is a meaningful concern for anyone shopping here specifically for authentic secondhand pieces. Paying attention to what you are buying and cross referencing pricing on anything that seems unclear before purchasing is worth doing. For a vintage stop in Harvard Square that delivers on aesthetic but requires a careful eye at the register, Friends + Family is a pleasant browse with a caveat.

I did some digging & discovered that the MICH brand is Boston's very own, how cool! BEAUTIFULLY CURATED.
