This is by far my favorite boutique in Chicago. Nicole the owner is the best shopping buddy you will ever have. Whether you are shopping for yourself, or someone else, she will ask you all the right questions, and steer you towards the best purchases. If something breaks or if you realize the ring you bought was too big, no problem, she will help you figure out a solution. Such great customer service.
The store is stocked with really trendy and interesting jewelry and accessories. The style is kinda boho/biker/gypsy/native American. She has also been expanding her home decor selection, which has been great for house warming presents. And it's so reasonably priced, it's unreal.
Next time your out grocery shopping at Mariano's or if you're shopping around for a cool birthday present, you should really stop in. It's local and it's awesome and is really deserving of your support!
