If sample dresses tend to fit you well (street clothes size 4-10ish, or some plus-size samples available as well), this is not to be skipped... Lucky me, almost every sample fits with minor alterations. I can see that it's definitely hit-or-miss and I happened to find the dress of my dreams (and some pretty fab runners-up as well). Very high-end designers represented at AMAZING prices. These are samples so they have been tried on (and on and on) - some are in better condition than others but the store cleans and makes all possible repairs for free (alterations by their seamstress are additional). It was pretty quiet when I was there so I had a lot of attention from the sales people but they weren't pushy at all. I have absolutely no idea what the other reviewer is talking about re: their 'signature line'... I certainly didn't see a preponderance of any single designer (although, if you love the dress, who cares who designed it?).
I didn't see my dress online, so don't just go by their online inventory. Their posted pictures certainly don't do the dresses justice either, I was pretty skeptical before actually going in. If you love designer gowns but are on a budget, definitely give this a shot, you may very well find exactly what you were looking for!

This was never the greatest Filene's Basement around, but it has really gone downhill over the years. The store is so dingy and poorly laid out. The clothing selection, especially for women, is really awful. The prices aren't even that great. The staff seems miserable to be there, and the store is usually a mess. You might still find an okay gift, a home decorative object, or some underwear here, but good luck. You're much better off trying the Marshalls downstairs. The store is also pretty cramped, yet they really don't have anything good. I feel like I've walked into the lousy Woolworths in downtown L.A. when I was a kid in the 1970s. Yuck.

Too many complaints from yelpers to my taste. I love Target. It's packed because it's part of the mall. You guys make no sense at all. If you want to enjoy a quiet Target then don't go to one which is part of the mall. Got it! I like Target I always find wonderful items. Check out their own brand of food Archer Farms. Their return policies are worth it 90days! Trureview here to tell you the truth

This store is pretty tucked away in the Arsenal Mall, so you might not even realize that it's there. They have some pretty amazing sales from time to time where you can get some real bargains (beware that during big sales the store can be a real mess with clothes on the floor). The clothes are certainly geared for younger people, but they do carry some basic type items for any age (sweat, button downs, tshirts). The sizing can really vary from item to item, so you really ought to try things on (it's no unusual for one person to be able to wear 3 different sizes here). The quality is also varied, so it's best to inspect things and to always try things on since it seems like they have a lot of "irregular" items. It's a good place for gifts since they carry lots of accessories. Prices are very reasonable, even on non-sale items.

They have many accessories, body lotions, luggages and so much more. Prices are really good. I got myself some jeans the other day.

I absolutely love this store. It is one of a kind. Literally, you can walk out confident that no one has what you have. If this is not a big deal for you then continue to buy at chain stores, but I like unique things that only I have. If you are anything like me, this is the place for you.
Please try to do what I did: I walked in with my family's vintage fur so it could get fixed. I walked out with 2 coats that are one of a kind. OH! and because they also treat and fix fur I should be picking up my family's heirlooms soon.
You Should Do The Same***
Pros: Best unique coats ever!
Cons: You will not just buy one!

How is it that no one told me about this place, that's so close to home? Fastachi calls itself "An Opera of Nuts," but it's also a Symphony of Chocolate. They do have all kinds of different nuts and nut mixes (like with dried fruits, etc). They're on the expensive side, but it's just an expensive product and their prices are reasonable for what the products are. They have chocolates imported from Belgium (like fresh praline types) as well as a wide variety of domestic and imported chocolates and other sweets and treats. They store is immaculately clean and a real pleasure to shop and browse. The staff is friendly and some sampling is possible if you ask. All I can say is "WOW" because there's nothing else around like this and with this much variety.

Footaction is located in the Watertown Arsenal mall. It's small but nice and clean. They have sneakers for women, men and kids. The prices are ok but you should always ask for their $10 off coupons. The staff is ok. Truereview here to tell you the truth.
