The Mall at Chestnut Hill

Under the same ownership as Copley Place, this mall is geared towards a customer base of affluent suburbanites. It houses New England's only two Bloomingdale's stores - one for women's clothing and accessories, and one at the other end of the mall for men's clothing and homeware - and a mix of mid-range and designer fashion brands, including Brooks Brothers, Coach, local chain JasmineSola, a small outpost of Barneys New York, beauty emporium Sephora, local traditional jewellers Shreve, Crump & Low and an Apple Store. For a full-scale shopping fix, while you're in the area you may want to check out the nearby Atrium Mall, which has MAC cosmetics, Anthropologie and Williams-Sonoma homeware, among others.
