I absolutely love this shop! Pam does an excellent job finding unique pieces for all sizes and age groups which is no small feat in Southie! I always leave with a cute item or two and have found my pieces to last through the ever changing fashion trends. Worth the trip!!

My absolute go to spot for shopping in Southie! Pam is so great at offereing a wide variety of clothing and accessories for all body types and ages. She is so friendly and helpful and HONEST about what you are trying on - she has saved me from making a mistake as well as encouraged me to take a risk. I receive compliments on everything I have bought there. My husband knows I love it so much that I always get a gift certificate for Mother's Day and my Bday!! Well worth the trip to Southie if you don't live here!

I stopped by this store today. A friend of mine really likes this place so I stopped by to see if I could find her a birthday gift. I happen to park next to a car with two girls seated in the car talking. I arrived around 4pm and the stores lights were off and there was a note on the door that stated "be back in 10". The store is open until 7:30pm Mon-Fri so says the sign. So I browsed through a few of the other stores nearby. Checked back in 15mins and they were still closed. Ugh. Frustrating. I wandered around for a little longer, but then decided to abort mission, as they were still closed when I checked back a second time. When I returned to my car the same two girls were still in the car next to me but one got out of the car and walked away. As I pulled around and out of the parking lot to leave I could see the store lights were on so I parked again and went inside. SAME GIRL that was in the car was now behind the counter. So let me get this straight...She closed the store to sit in a car and talk to her friend while customers wait around to shop??? Ridiculous. The store has some really cute items but they need employees who can keep the store open during ALL business hours.

We Love Habit!!! Great selection of on trend women's clothing that really fits most body types. Pricing is decent! Not "cheap" but not expensive either so a good balance of where the price point should be! If you need a date night outfit, this is the place to grab one!!!

Walking Broadway in Southie on a beautiful sunny day, we almost walked past this lovely shop but I stopped in to have a look. One lovely lady was there, was very helpful and friendly, I asked for advice on some earrings and she was on the money with her suggestion which I bought there and then! We don't visit the area often but I would definitely go back. Nice bright shop, lots of nice cheerful coloured clothing, prices are good, well worth a visit if you're in the area. We all rush to the big name stores but local smaller shops are every bit as good and often have the very thing you're looking for. I'll be back!

I'm not sure how I've managed to not review Habit yet, as I've been shopping there since it opened but here goes... Pam and Leila are just the loveliest. Every visit to Habit is wonderful thanks to their keen eye for great styles and affordable price points. After the first few purchases their they both had a great idea of what I look for and always have a few suggestions every time I come in. It is now the first (and often last) place I go to shop for any occasion and where I go to lust after next season's style and weather! To top it all off, I can count on never running into the "she's wearing my dress!!" problem because they do such a great job selecting small batches of lots fo styles to keep folks happy. Keep up the amazing, stylish work, y'all!

I'm still living on a student budget, so boutiques really aren't my thing, but this store still lures me in for the occasional peruse. The set up is a little cramped, with what seems to be little organization, but that makes coming across something great in the middle of a rack a little more exciting. Prices are decent i guess for the brands you'd be buying. The salespeople are never pushy, but seem to be ready and able to help at a moment's notice. The big draw to this boutique is the sale rack in the back of the store. Thats where you'll find me with my fingers crossed hoping to score a cute item for 50% off. I feel like I should also make a comparison to KuDeTa since these two stores are the only ones of their kind in Southie, but located within a few blocks of each other on E. Broadway. I like the set up and selection of jewelry at KuDeTa better, but the clothing itself, as well as the pricing is much better at Habit.

Habit is a great little boutique and a great addition to southie for its yuppies that flock to the new up and coming old Irish neighborhood. The staff is friendly and they have very cute stuff at s reasonable price.

Awesome , awesome, awesome!! I needed a dress for a wedding but wasn't quite sure of what I was looking for, I was going to leave until the girls asked what I was looking for and before I knew it dresses were pulled from the back and I was staring at the perfect dress!!! I was a little concerned because one strap looked a little loose so they gave me some $$ off to go get it fixed right down the street. I will totally go back for more clothes!

Wow! Talk about bend over backwards! This was my first stop on the search for the Perfect Thing to wear to the wedding this past weekend. Let's just say she pulled out all the cutest things in the shop (and a couple were still in boxes), and I did leave with my new favorite summer dress, but I just wasn't quite finding the Perfect Thing to wear to the wedding. So you know what? She pointed me in the direction of a couple of other places in Southie, and even mentioned some restaurants to try out! Can you beat that? I love it! And I'm totally a new fan of Southie, too. Oh, I'll be back all right. Can't wait!

Habit is a gem. The owners are incredible. They're helpful (without being overbearing), and honest, which is rare. I've been to the store numerous times, and it seems like those girls never have an "off" day. Just today we stopped by, and not only did the owner let us bring our dog in, she had treats for her! The selection is fantastic, especially considering the size of the place. I've never gone in without finding something. There's a wonderful mix of pieces, ranging from the shockingly inexpensive (denim petticoat for $45- what?!), to must have splurge items. The sale rack is always full of great steals. They also have a constant influx of new items. I can't say enough about the Shara Porter bags/wallets that they carry- vintage pieces that have been restored and have adorable prints.
