UPDATE MARCH 2017 Since their move south a couple blocks to…read morethe spot across the street from the newish Mickey Finn's, Serendipity seems to have really upped their game. They are a favorite place to stop on First Fridays, when I can hardly get in the door! And the stream of new and fun fashions and accessories is non-stop. Service is friendly and personal, too. Still one of my favorite stops. This is like shopping in a dear friend's great closet. Although the store is tiny, the variety always surprises me, and the service can't be beat. I find interesting items I find nowhere else, and while their prices are consistent with other stores, their sale items make them more affordable. There is even a comfortable place to sit! I have purchased tops, purses, outerwear, scarves, jewelry, and other items. Easy to miss since it is north of Casa Bonita and before the train tracks, up a couple of stairs. But with such a uniquely-vintage location and terrific items and service, it is worth the extra steps. Easy parking right in front, or in the copious parking lots around the corner on Lake Street. No I do not work for them - I am just a huge fan and want to be sure they stay in town!

The Serendipity Shop is my favorite store in Libertyville for anything clothing, jewelry, and…read moreaccessories. I love how I can stop in and get help in finding a last minute gift or a needed something to wear to an outing. Everything in the store is unique and so cute! The staff is great. I love this shop.

Stacey was an absolute gem! My wife and I wandered into Blu Violet Boutique during spring break --…read moreand it instantly became one of those "we're-just-browsing-oh-wait-let's-buy-everything" kind of stops. Despite how busy it was, Stacey personally welcomed every guest with that kind of hospitality that makes you wonder if she's lowkey your long-lost aunt. She made the whole space feel inviting and cozy, even as she was styling, ringing up, and somehow still smiling through it all. She's the MVP of multitasking and mood-setting. Let's talk clothes -- my wife was in boutique heaven. The selection hit that magical zone of trendy and timeless, like "that dress will slay now and five years from now." She found pieces for brunch, casual Fridays, and -- no joke -- we even considered coordinating outfits for future date nights. If matching sets are the new love language, this place understood the assignment. Now for me -- the supportive husband on standby. I came fully prepared to be ignored and under-caffeinated. Instead, I got cozy seating, cold bottled water, and good vibes. I felt seen. Honestly, the only thing missing was a small men's rack so I could join in on the fashion fun. I would've gladly snagged a matching neutral-toned shacket and made it a full Instagram moment. Final verdict: Blu Violet is a vibe. It's the kind of place where your wife walks out with a glow, you feel unexpectedly refreshed, and suddenly you're googling "how to style couple outfits without looking like a prom photo." 10/10 would return -- with hopes of menswear, or at the very least a whiskey, while waiting.

If you're in the area, I recommend giving this Nordstrom Rack a try!

What an absolute scam. Avoid this company at all costs. Their customer service is beyond horrific…read more First, when you sign up for emails to get 15% off, you receive a text from a representative--except the number they provide is no longer in service. Red flag right there. I had to call Visa's transaction dispute line just to get a working phone number, but surprise, no one answered. I left multiple messages requesting a call back to cancel my order--nothing. The email confirmation states there's a 3-5 business day delay in processing orders, yet somehow, the moment I tried to cancel, my order was miraculously packaged and shipped before they could even bother to return my call. Convenient, right? This company is shady, dishonest, and has zero regard for actual customer service. You'd be better off shredding your money than supporting a business that operates like this. Hopefully, I'll see their name attached to a bankruptcy notice soon.
