  • Vintage designer costume jewelry and estate jewelry are the main attractions here. But don’t overlook the handsome 1950s barware, vintage clothing accessories, and other collectibles.

  • Abodeon stocks home furnishings of the decidedly retro variety. Items include 1940s rolling chaise longes, vintage cocktail services, and even the occasional Wurlitzer jukebox.

  • Footware by Jimmy Choo and Stuart Wietzman claim the back of the store, while cashmere suits, evening gowns, and luxurious coats rule the racks up front.

  • From a $4,000 John Galliano silk dress to a skimpy camouflage Christian Dior bikini, Alan Bilzerian is the place to go for high-end fashion that exudes personality.

  • Allston Beat

    With everything for club hoppers, glam rockers, and hip-hop revivalists, Allston Beat is the place for clothing and accessories that positively ooze swagger.

  • Antiques at 80 Charles

    Should your predilection be antique jewelry, keep this address in mind. Ornate gold brooches, platinum earrings – plus excellent examples of Wedgwood ceramic work – populate the glass cases here.

  • Formal pieces of 19th-century Continental furniture and accessories, such as drop-leaf dining tables, wrought iron wall sconces, and beautiful Tiffany-style lamps, are the draw at this elegant shop.

  • Whimsical housewares fill this shop known for its hand- dipped and scented candles. Aromas include root beer, popcorn, and “home” (which smells like apple pie).

  • Autrefois specializes in French and Italian furnishings from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, like Louis XV gilded mirrors, Art Deco dining chairs, and wildly abstract iron sconces.

  • Everything for the blader, rider, and skater: Shorty’s decks, K2 snowboards, and Salomon and Rollerblade inline skates.
