I stopped into Moondance briefly whilst checking out some stores on Roscoe. It's a cute shop with a…read morewide range of items; lots of jewelry, clothing and other accessories, geared toward women. They carry seasonal items too, for home (such as napkins or the like) and gifts. I'll bet a person could do some damage around the holidays picking out some special items for friends and fam. The woman who helped me--owner, I think?--is welcoming and of course happy to help you find the perfect thing you're looking for. Parking is street only. Can be tricky in Roscoe Village, especially during some of the neighborhood/chamber events I'd suspect, but work it to visit this great little business district.

Been shopping here for years. Can pick up some interesting items that are absolutely adorable.read more

And they have such a beautifully curated selection of brands. My favorite clothes and jewelry are from here. And now they even carry indie perfume!

I'm a guy, so there is nothing for me to buy at Squasht. However, my girlfriend LOVES this place,…read moreso I'll be coming back here often! And actually, I love Squasht too. Leslie has EXCELLENT taste, and there are always the most beautiful things on display, with amazing fabrics and elements, for example, in the jewelry. Often she carries items that are nature-focused or created with sustainable materials. All in all, I'm very happy that my sweet GF has chosen a place I enjoy visting and feel good buying from!

While enjoying pedis with a friend she informed me she still didn't have a rehearsal dinner dress…read morefor her wedding, which was just 2 weeks away. Yikes! We dried our toes, hopped in the car and headed to Damen with the hopes of finding something at Marc Jacobs, Cynthia Rowley or perhaps Nanette Lepore. Marc and Nanette let us down (absolutely nada!) and we found 1 good option of Cynthia Rowley. Before settling on the Cynthia Rowley dress we decided to pop into p45 to see if they had anything. My goodness....I always forget how cute this boutique is! Unfortunately, I can't buy anything in normal boutiques right now due to Baby R, but as soon as I shed those pregnancy pounds later this year p45 will be one of my first stops. Our sales gal, Tricia, was beyond helpful! She wasn't pushy in the least bit and really wanted to make sure my friend absolutely LOVED her rehearsal dinner dress. She ended up finding us a beautiful dress that was just perfect...and on sale (score!). She even gave my friend heels, a strapless bra and stockings to try it on. They really have it all here! Now if only they could start carrying maternity clothes for me...

I want to say I am so happy to hear that this boutique is still around in 2019. I recall when it…read morefirst opened up and I went and visit back in 1999 as I live in New York. I am a Chicago native and it's so wonderful to see how much Wicker Park has changed but preferably to see that the store is still around with beautiful unique cutting-edge designers...to this very day I still wear these two items that I bought back in 1999 thought you would like a little throwback :)

Alice & Wonder came up in so many reels on IG and tik tok so of course I had to see what the hype was about for myself! This location was cute, the staff were super helpful, sweet and provided us with an overview of the custom hat making process. It was quick and easy and I appreciated how the store associate gave me pointers on what details to record. The overall store was full of Chicago souvenirs but the cute kind! The value of the custom hat was under $80 and depends on how many patches you desire to add!

Lindsay became my bff the second I walked in…read more So here's the sitch. Im visiting from NYC and getting a prdicure at a nail salon around the corner. Sitting next to Kat, we instantly start chatting up and talking about the neighborhood and our trip. We're in Chicago and then heading to Vegas for a festival which I still don't have an outfit for. And as luck would have it, she says she works at Felt around the corner and we should definitely head over! We head over to the magical world of Felt and meet the magical Lindsay. Lindsay was my fairy godbestie. She listened to where we were going, my style, and my body. I recently lost weight so I don't have lots of clothes or much style. Clothing shopping has always been tough for me. Lindsay pulled together pieces for me and set up a room. Cue the early 2000's movie changing room montage. Also did I mention the free champagne?! So I'm switching in and out of outfits for my partner and Lindsay to look at on the couch and big mirror which my partner and I drink champagne. I didn't even give Lindsay my sizes (because I don't even know my size anymore) and yet almost every piece fit. And every piece was a different size, medium, large, different numbers, etc. like is she a wizard?! We left the store with summer shorts, an awesome blue, strapless top that ties in the back, and a white skirt with black polka dots for funsies for work (great material, holds it's like 60s waves and is double lined so not see through) Not only did I walk out of there with clothes, but I walked out of there happy, with CONFIDENCE, and a beautiful sense sisterhood. Lindsay is such a girls girl. As a curvy woman, clothing shopping can be tough and disheartening. But if there was a Lindsay in every store, the world would be a better place. P.S. for Lindsay: Girl, the Vegas festival was CANCELLED. Can you believe it?! lol but don't worry I will still be wearing these pieces all summer! Thank you for everything!

You'll find some friendly ladies inside that are willing to help you shop around & find pieces, or be left to wander on your own.

Many of the little trinkets make references to the many things we love about Chicago. It's a great place to buy gifts for friends. There's a pretty wide range of prices for items but I feel that everything is fairly priced, especially given that they're not mass produced! The cashier was super sweet and accommodating and offered to wrap up the items I had planned of gifting to friends. They prefer cash and charge a 3% service fee on cards.

Some of it edgy, some of it traditional, some of it is just completely off the rails. I loved it all. The workers are just amazing people. Every person that walked through the door was asked how they were doing with sincerity by the owner. I stocked up on some decals and patches by local artists. The prices were good. I loved this place. I am always on the hunt for shops that showcase the uniqueness and products of local creators. This place has it all for everybody!
