Misha and Puff
Misha and Puff was founded in 2011 by Anna Wallack after her baby son spent his first New England winter keeping warm and cozy while swaddled head-to-toe in knits she had made. Drawing on over ten years of experience as a stylist, as well as personal understanding of what works well for little ones, Misha and Puff offers a collection that is special yet unfussy, a way to share our love of the thoughtfully designed and handcrafted. – 91 Newbury Street

The Shop
The Shop is a series of rapidly rotation pop ups that functions as a retail incubator. As part of The Newbury Collection, The Shop will host local and well-established brands alike, bringing their unique products and stories to Boston’s preeminent retail district. Custom-made stackable furniture will be wheeled, reassembled, and reconsidered as each pop up debuts their retail, food, or mystery concept to Newbury Street. Brands include Craft & Caro, JE11, York Athletics, Gelato Fiasco, and more. – 144 Newbury Street
