Lucky says ...

Owner Tricia Tunstall knows just how to delight hometown hipsters: by featuring local rocker Liz Phair modeling on their website. Their perennially cool shop draws women with similar sensibilities, who love Tree's leather camisoles, flirty dresses, and separates by Juliana Rosa Cho, as well as Tangee's sensual suede bags. It's one of the best places in town to find looks from emerging designers.    More

Mademoiselle says ...

Cool Chicagoans like Liz Phair stop in for the edgy clothes.    More
