FLOURISH & FOUNDRY
Finding special pieces to complete your home can feel like a never-ending—and honestly unenjoyable—treasure hunt. The hours of searching and scrolling take all the fun out of interior design, and this is all before factoring in sustainability. Enter Downton Boston’s winter arrival, Flourish & Foundry. The curated home goods store from local interior and event designers Marcus Hamblin and Sarah Marchione offers a space for Bostonians to find high-quality pieces, from kitchen wares to dishes, glassware, linens and specialty goods. To boot, the pieces you fall in love with are ethically sourced and environmentally conscious. 30 Tremont St.,flourishandfoundryshop.com
FOUND
An obsession with vintage is taking over everything from fashion to interiors—and we’re not mad about it. When the urge to find your next “sorry you can’t buy this too” piece arizes, wander to Central Square’s FOUND. The concept features three vintage clothing stores with different themes and curated by various local vendors. Inside, timeless, unique and trendy pieces line the racks. You may just find your dream designer style or essential graphic tee. 5 Columbia St., Cambridge,orgnlmrkts.com
La Ligne’s founders Molly Howard, Meredith Melling and Valerie Macaulay
LA LIGNE
When former Vogue editors tell you where to shop, listen. Founded by Valerie Macaulay, Meredith Melling and the previous Head of Business Development for Rag & Bone, Molly Howard, New York’s La Linge officially landed on Newbury Street last month, iconic stripes in tow. Inside the 1,500-square-foot boutique, find the newly launched spring 2024 collection, featuring chic womenswear from T-shirts to denim, skirts, dresses, accessories, knitwear and more. Refresh your spring wardrobe with timeless, classic pieces that boast seasonal hues and in-house designed prints, like the Vivian dress. 135 Newbury St., lalignenyc.com
RHONE
As Boston begins to thaw, locals hold onto the promise of Esplanade runs, walks through the park, golfing at Granite Links and bike rides around New England’s summer destinations. While daydreaming, take a closer look at what you’re wearing—chances are, you’ll find it at Rhone. The new Seaport arrival offers stylish yet functional active and athleisure wear for men, focusing on sustainable fabrics and ethical partners. Shop tops, shorts, pants and accessories like breathable button-downs, swim trunks, golf gloves and more. 81 Pier 4 Blvd.,rhone.com

Treat yourself to a new pair of earrings at STUDS.
STUDS
Although STUDS first came on the scene in Manhattan, opening a few locations in Boston was fate for co-founder and CEO Anna Harman, a Boston University Law School alumna. Find their most recent brick-and-mortar in Seaport, where jewelry fanatics can shop every style of earring imaginable or even add a new piercing to their collection. Itty-bitty accessories like the twist crescent hoop and two-tone star stud elevate any look, from the beach to a night out. 59 Pier 4 Blvd.,studs.com
