My GF and I (shopping for the GF) have been coming to this particular Heroines boutique for several…read moreyears and it never disappoints. The designer is local and so are the fabrics. We were told that all the clothing is made in France and England. I have no reason to suspect otherwise. Assuming this is true then Heroines is a bargain! Perhaps it is my Bronx skepticism kicking-in. The manager/salesperson was outstanding but I can't remember her name. I don't want to say how much we spent, but let's just say we greatly surpassed the US incoming custom's exemption. I guess we'll just need to donate the excess prior to re-entering the homeland...

Wow! What a fantastic shopping experience. The clothes are designed by the owner in Paris and made…read morein London. Dresses, shoes and coats inspired by 1950's vintage style with a modern edge, gorgeous construction and design. Nina helped choose some things that were wonderfully complementary to my body shape stating "it's not about size, but shape". As I'm a few sizes larger in France then the US, this was very helpful to hear. She was a great sales person, spoke beautiful English and was a lot of fun.

But it can also be horrible. Shiny mix and match tops and weird shaped skirts that you wonder if anybody can wear them or bizarre looking shoes. It is worth having an in-depth look each time though because as I said you can alway something amazing and it is usually quite cheap.

Not my vibe! The store felt like a warehouse of basic goods in black, grey and white with some…read moredenim thrown in. No greeting from staff. Just a tangle of t shirts and sweatshirts and jeans.

I could have bought every item in this store and it still wouldn't be enough. Why can't we have one…read morein New York!? Weekday is from the same people that created Cheap Monday. It's their new affordable fashion brand that's accessible to any budget, but with clothes you won't find at places like H&M or Uniqlo. Lots of basics with modern cuts and enough style for the streets of Paris, or anywhere in the world you might wear their stuff. Their jeans are one of the things most people come here for, and while I didn't buy any, I can see why someone would. They look great and the price is right. You might want to bring an extra suitcase on your next trip, because you're going to run out of room in your carry on.
