DavidsTea and Sephora to open at Derby Street Shoppes in Hingham

WS Development and Derby Street Shoppes continue to add new retailers to the mix of existing shops, boutiques and restaurants by announcing the opening of DavidsTea and Sephora. The popular tea boutique, DavidsTea, expects to open its only location on the South Shore in mid-summer, while leading perfume and cosmetics retailer, Sephora, hopes to open later this year. DavidsTea and Sephora will be a great addition to the new stores that have opened at Derby St. this year. Earlier in 2015, Derby Street welcomed new retailers including, ivivva, lululemon's latest offering just for teenagers, Setting the Space, a local interior design company, and J.Jill, the leading multichannel fashion retailer in women's fashion who recently remodeled and expanded their store at Derby St. In addition, long-time tenant, White's Bakery, will be moving to a new location at Derby Street, by Crate & Barrel this summer. The announcement of new stores comes with excitement after Derby Street Shoppes celebrates its tenth birthday this year. Through the years it has become a popular destination for the South Shore community. "We are thrilled to bring two new quality retailers to Derby Street Shoppes making it an even more compelling open air destination for the South Shore. DavidsTea brings a modern twist to tea drinking with an amazing selection of flavors and tastes. While Sephora needs no introduction, it's exciting to offer our customers such a fantastic selection of skincare brands," said Niamh O'Maille, marketing director of the Derby Street Shoppes.
