A New Arrival on Newbury

Once upon a time, Newbury was home to cutting edge clothing designs accompanied by alarming, designer price tags. But then, as it happens, the average consumer stores garnered a foothold and it was all strip mall from there on out. Hello Best Buy and American Apparel.

But, in the down economy, even loss-leader store fronts didn't necessarily make sense. See ya later Pottery Barn. So in this enormous space we welcome All Saints Spitalfields, a British company. And the store set-up, display & mannequin stylings and apparel knocked it out of the park. And price tags, while out of my price range, fall in a dangerous territory where you could find a way to justify the purchase.

The facade is hundreds of vintage Singer sewing machines.

Yikes. I'll get a flash-free shot.

Can lights like a stage!


Stark cement walls draw attention to the copper accent pieces and show stopping pieces.


This seasons designs are exploring seriously unique necklines and draping. The clothes have a distinct point of view and I love the personality they represent.



I love this wallet at least as much as my own. (To be fair, they share many similarities.)



Baubles.


Baby clothes. So sophisticated.


Also digging the men's wear & men's accessories.

Welcome to Boston.
