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. I adore the jacket I bought and am actually looking forward to colder weather so I can wear it and let the complements roll in.

St. Michel, my first mistake) and turn right at first block to Rue de St Andres des Art. It is NOT on the street itself (my 2nd mistake) but in passageway Couer de Commerce between #59 and 61. Once you enter, the shop is 10+ meters on your left. It is indeed tiny but a paper lover/writer's haven: journals, day timers, cards, pens & accessories, wooden bookmarks, postcards, wrapping paper et al. My favorite purchases included separate leather cases (holds one pen each) - I got three in red, blue and orange each - a sheave of wrapping paper in different designs and a wood bookmark. Many of the products are beautifully designed and handmade; the owner will tell you which country they are from or made in, The items I bought were from in Italy, India and France. Well worth the effort to find!

However, be careful about the restrictive return policy - you have 7 days for exchange only. I regretted buying a pair of jeans that were too large and when I took them back to exchange Allison was super rude about how I could only select an item from the new collection - unfortunately almost the entire boutique had been put on sale that day, so I only had a few pieces to choose from. I was ready to spend much more than the original price of the jeans, but after the aggressive service, I left with an exact exchange and a bad taste in my mouth. Not sure I'll be going back.
