Got the chance to visit a boutique I read about on ThrillList.com called p+l. They are located on the 2900 block of Clark in Chicago, just a few doors south of the Clark Dog.
Let me just say that I was in love from the very moment I set foot inside. They have a smallish space but it is very well organized and very smartly detailed to showcase the variety of wearables and accessories they carry. Men on the left, ladies on the right; they have a great selection of indie labels from Insight to Wrath Arcane for men and a great little collection of wooden jewelery (Bauxo) handmade in Bali for the ladies. Yes, they have the staples of denim and tees but they also stay very current and with the season. The labels are not the main focus of this neat Chicago boutique but they provided a blend that was as cohesive and appealing as the labels themselves.
I’ll definitely be headed back there, because not only did they exceed my expectations for selection and value but their staff (Paul especially) was so helpful and courteous I just wanted to give him a big hug before we left.
If you are looking for something on the unique side but not so far out you can’t wear it everywhere then I am sure P+L will have something for you. The few sale items they had left from the summer were not throw aways and they were very reasonably priced.
