A flow of fresh, new additions are coming to Houston's Highland Village, bringing exciting stores, shopping, and experiences. 

Highland Village has taken the same-old classic shopping that has been around for years and has reinvented its look and shopping experience. This happening spot, home to restaurants such as Ra Sushi and Smith and Wolinksys, has recently renovated and added multiple stores. This area of Houston is now the destination for the high end but slightly price conscious shopper. Much of the renovations center around the movement of Anthropologie to the area where the now closed down store, Tootsies, used to be located. This renovation seems to have sparked a new wave of eye-catching shopping to beautify Highland Village. The popular clothing brand, Splendid, has opened in a brand new location just around the corner from the new Anthropologie. Best of all is the new J Crew that has opened right next to Anthropologie, also taking the place of Tootsies. Highland village is now the home to many relaxing days of shopping, eating, and much more.
