Boutique buzz: Boston

I just got back from visiting my lovely home away from home Boston. I was inspired and impressed with some of the delicious little boutiques I came across on this visit.
A new favorite of mine is ACQUIRE, a tiny little gem of a shop nestled in the North End.
I picked up a ridiculously affordable handmade wooden wreath and was tempted to buy a few more things. The reclaimed boudoir chairs, vintage medical apothecary cabinets and the teenie live shrimp eco-system were among my favorites.

Here are a few other great design boutiques around Mass:
Good-always a delight. This Beacon Hill shop is a constant go-to for amazing treasures and jewelry.
Magpie-cute and local artist supporting kitsch shop in Davis Square.
Map-interesting mix of men's clothing and hand crafted pieces and art in Province Town.
E.R. Butler & Co.-a stunning mix of architectural hardware and slightly macabre lux accessories.
Louisboston- high priced couture fashion and lust worthy home accessories on Newbury Street.
