Free People

I used to love this place but they’ve gotten smarter by making cheap looking clothes and selling them for the same prices and or more. The quality is not as good as it used to be and they need to hire better designers. I used to spend thousands a year on FP, now I cringe whenever I see the prices and the quality of the fabric. I’d just go to Urban Outfitters and get the same quality of clothes or better for cheaper in that case.

I don’t usually review chains or stores, but this Free People is the best ever! The girls who run it are absolutely wonderful– they’re so adorable and friendly.

I’m in love with Free People. For serious. I think I order from the catalog once a week. And the awesome thing about their mail-​order system is you can return most items to retail stores– so no return shipping or waiting a week for the credit to come through.
During my most recent visit to this location, I returned a dress I’d bought online. I walked my dog down to Harvard Square with me, and the sales girl was kind enough to let me bring him inside with me– much appreciated. In general, the staff is sweet and helpful. (this is also a shoplifter-​deterring strategy, I believe).
Like all Free People boutiques or sections in department stores, the selection is small, but you’re likely to find one or two awesomely unique pieces each time.

I love this Free People store for the simple fact that the workers here are awesome. We spent a good hour in here schmoozing it up and making valentine’s for our valentine’s. They had a table set up with cool arts n crafts in the middle of the store. One of my favorite stops in Boston. Hands down.

Perfect location for this store, I love it since its fairly close to where I live! I’ve been in many times since it first opened and the sales associates are always very friendly and willing to help you if you are looking for something in particular. I love checking the jewelry they have on clearance here; they always have very unique pieces.

i just added this new Free People in Harvard Square. Its right up church street close to American Apparel (gag). The clothes are baggy and beautiful. Free flowing kinda hippie bohemian while still modern and fashionable. Love! Most of the clothes have an elegance to them that AA does not have, they are more similar to Anthro but on the looser fit side and softer colors. The clothes are great for 16 – 28 year old women. Not saying older or younger cant buy from here. But you gotta have a womans body to wear these clothes as they are often not super tailored, but you also wouldnt want to wear them if you were older as they are very youthful. Ah, dont bite my head off for that comment. You know what I mean! My friend just bought a black dress on sale that Taylor Swift wore for 30 dollars. Awesome!
Its really great to have another clothing store in the square, because sometimes the other stores get old. The two times I have been inside the sales girls were really nice, not pushy or annoying, just genuinely nice and helpful if you needed anything. Its a small store, but doesnt feel crowded. I hope they have alot of sales, because many of the items I want in there are over $ 100 dollars. The blouses are 50+, dresses 80 – 150.
I will be back very soon! This will become one of my favorite go to places, I can tell.
