If you’re a shopaholic and you’re an Anglophile, be prepared to kiss your work-study paycheck goodbye when you go to The New England Harbour Club (NEHC).
NEHC is located next to Hooley and RE-SAILS off of America’s Cup Avenue, only a few steps away from The Newport Visitor’s Center. NEHC opened this summer and attracts many shoppers who are staying at the Marriot, getting off cruise ships and ferries, or simply venturing from the Brick Marketplace.
The New England Harbour Club predominantly carries Topshop, a brand from the United Kingdom known for combining classic British style and high-fashion runway trends to create eclectic clothing and accessories for fashionable women. Topman, Topshop’s brother brand, carries menswear and men’s accessories with the similar cutting-edge style.
Topshop and Topman are accessible to college students in both price-point and style. One of the best things about Topshop is that the clothing is conscious of trends and communicates youthful spunk, but there are plenty of pieces that are mainstays like the striped “Breton” tee, the Cambridge satchel, or cable-knit sweaters. College girls can easily go to Topshop to find an outfit for a party or an outfit for work. As far as Topman is concerned, there are graphic T shirts perfect for going out, but the blazers and button-down shirts can be worn for polished casual.
Although Topshop has hundreds of stores across the United Kingdom and over 140 international locations, the closest Topshop store is in SoHo, New York. Although the New England Harbor Club is not an official Topshop or Topman store, it still has the same great clothing you would find at Topshop on Oxford Street in London, Broadway in SoHo, or online.
