So, I said to myself the other night while I was out that it was time for some new shirts.  Jeans are all under control - shoes & shirts are next.

With some spare time this weekend - I went for a walk to see what some of the independent boutique stores in my neighborhood could offer.

For men, Chemise is where it's at on Division street!

No hassle or hard sell crap from the owner - was just allowed to take my time and look at everything.  Very helpful though when I asked questions.

I was focused on buying shirts while going there and have to say that they have *the* best selection of all the boutique stores on Division street.  I found probably 8 shirts worth trying on here and a total of two at the other four or five boutiques combined.

Good stuff - they don't carry every size in every style though so go often to look at what they have.

Prices for their shirts was very reasonable also - no need to drop mounds of c-notes here :).

Lots of jeans as well and some shoes that looked pretty sharp but my attention that day was on shirts.

Think  "The Rail" at Nordstrom but half the price and you've got Chemise. Located on Division, this little boutique carries some unique European men's shirts. Like the previous reviewer mentioned, the sales lady wasn't pushy or overbearing which made perusing for threads comfortable.
