I can get bored or overstimulated sifting…read morethrough even the cutest of outfits when in your standard shopping locale, which means I typically leave a store feeling grumpy and in dire need of a nap as opposed to floating out in elation over my stylish haul. This makes places like Chel Bella perfect for someone like me. Owner Chelsea and her staff have done the heavy lifting by stocking this beautiful boutique nestled in the heart of Hingham Square with a well curated selection of styles and designers. They've narrowed down the best options for every changing season so that I don't have to. Plus, they offer genuinely helpful suggestions in a way that feels like trying on clothes with your best friend as opposed to someone working on commission (Think more the polite version of "Yeah...hrrmmmm, maybe skinny jeans aren't for you- try bootcut!" than "Gorgeous- buy it all!") A South Shore go-to for everything from my favorite hard to find Red Engine Jeans, to Shoshanna frocks and JoJo baubles-- the store itself is sweet and loaded with pieces and designers I wouldn't always think to pick out but inevitably fall in love with when I do. The price point matches the offerings, so you can expect to pay standard boutique prices for the eagle-eye selections lining Chel Bella's racks.

This is a locally owned shop in charming downtown Hingham. It is well worth a visit…read more In the spirit of "shopping local" this holiday season in particular, a friend and I stopped in recently. They sell an array of very reasonably priced goods: clothes, outerwear, purses, totes, jewelry, knick-knacks. I think it would be pretty easy to find something pretty and fun for people on the average holiday shopping list. There are plenty of gift ideas for stocking stuffers too as well as items that might be nice as hostess gifts. I bought two "evil eye" necklaces here...one for me and one as a gift. The woman running the store was a sweetheart, chatting with us and offering help. They do gift wrapping here which is a plus. I plan to return next week to see if they have any additional items that might help me tick off a couple of more things on my holiday shopping list. It is definitely worth a visit. And if you haven't visited downtown Hingham, I think it's always a treat to do so.

But I got them and she accomodated my 2 year old with coloring and stickers. When you shop here you are treated like a queen! Thank you ladies for styling me again!!!

I've been DYING to check out Bliss ever since they opened a while back, and I finally got a chance…read morewhen we had a particularly long wait at neighboring Farmer's Daughter for brunch. The shop is reminiscent of cute boutiques on Bellevue Ave in Newport, RI or in the Hamptons, and is chock full of cute clothes, fun accessories, and adorable gift items. I had a lovely time perusing the racks upon racks of gorgeous and trendy pieces, and even though the full priced items were.. pricy, the sale selection was excellent. I often find that boutiques will put less than appealing items on the discount rack, but that's not the case at Bliss! Even though I didn't get any new clothes this time around, I'll definitely consider it for next time. What I did end up getting was an amazing enamel necklace that looks like a Ouija board planchet. My boyfriend, who is such a good sport to sit on a comfy couch whilst I shop, actually purchased it for me, and at $15, it was an affordable and super sweet present. I was joking that of course I found the only vaguely goth item in this bubbly and effervescent shop! The salesgirl, Ali, was great and very friendly as well, and made shopping at Bliss a total delight. My first visit here may have been loooooong overdue, but it certainly won't be the last!

It is located right near South Shore Taco Guy (also a cute spot) and Schooners. The store is meticulous: clean, very stylish, well organized and comfy. The owner has a solid eye for style and it comes thru even in how cool she decorated it. The store has a good variety of consigned clothing, shoes/sneakers and handbags. The sizes run the gamete (I saw from XS to 18) and the brands range from better mall brands like Gap to more exclusive designers. I tried on 2 pairs of jeans and while they didn't fit, I would definitely come back. The clothes were very stylish and were in excellent/ like new condition and were all ironed or wrinkle-free (pet peeve is I hate when the I go thrifting and the clothes are displayed super wrinkly). Love supporting awesome independent businesses like this! Cassie could not have been more welcoming/ kinder!

The service at Ports & Company is amazing…read more I'd been searching for a dress for a February wedding, and Ports & Company was the 10th store I'd tried. I wish I'd thought of them sooner. Not only did the staff at the store help me find a beautiful dress, but the dress was also on sale! Ports & Company is also a supporter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Greater New England Chapter. They provide the clothing to the models in the "Fashion Plates" fashion show and fundraiser. To see pictures of the clothing that was modeled from Ports & Company in 2011 and 2010, visit http://www.nationalmssociety.org/chapters/mam/fundraising-events/fashion-plates/index.aspx The dress I ended up purchasing was one of those modeled at Fashion Plates. (Attending Fashion Plates as a volunteer is how I first heard of Ports & Company.) I'd recommend Ports & Company to women who are looking for clothing and/or accessories that are different from what they find at chain department stores.

When they arrived, they were 1/2" shorter than the other shoes I have, thus I couldn't wear them. When I tried to return them to get a larger size, I was told that I would have to pay return shipping, they would only credit me back the shoe purchase price (not original shipping), and then would charge me shipping again on the new pair. I would understand this if I had made an error on the order, but the shoes, even though they're marked the same size, are not the same size. Hitchcock Shoes' fault, they should take accountability. Instead, it cost me $30+ for nothing. I chose not to order a different size, due to their lack of customer service. They won't get any other business from me, and I don't think that they care.
