My wife and I have visited Reign & Roses a few times now searching for gifts. We found wonderful…read moreChristmas gifts for the little ones in our family, along with excellent birthday gifts too. The owner, Victoria is a super sweet and very nice person. She is very helpful with her inventory. The quality of her children's clothes is top notch. And the prices are very reasonable. The parents of the little ones we purchased gifts for just loved everything and were raving about it for days. My wife and I highly recommend Reign & Roses to everyone. You will not be disappointed. We plan on going back for more gift ideas quite often! So if you are in the downtown Frankfort area, around White Street, head up to the second level of the old Trolly Barn, across from the Grainery and do some clothes shopping for the little ones in your life. It will be definitely worth the trip!

Lil Surprises is a darling little store right in the middle of downtown Frankfort. I love it! I…read moream a brand new Grandmother and this shop has all kinds of fun stuff to buy for my granddaughter - grand is the operative word! When you are the Mom you have to buy diapers, shampoo and stuff like food. As the Grandma I can buy all the impractical stuff. I have only been there once since my granddaughter was born but I was able to find the cutest head bands with bows that attach for football games and St. Patrick's day. Sigh of bliss. How fun to buy such non essential items. They have tons of darling dresses, socks and coats that are so cute and cunning. I love everything they have here. Some of the items are custom made and are similar to what I make for my sweet new granddaughter and I love that also, it makes me feel like I am so darn clever. I don't know about you, but I plan to head over early and often.

This children's store in Hinsdale has a lot of stuff. They have clothing for children up to at…read moreleast age five or six. They carry everyday wear, pajamas, and special occasion clothing. They had some cute children's bunting as we get closer to the winter months. They were having an "indoor sidewalk sale", with some of their items being up to 75% off--this included clothes, toys, books, and other items and knickknacks. They had some books and stuffed animals that complement the books, like the Little Blue Truck and Corduroy. I bought a cute little dress for the holidays for my daughter, as well as a lovely sweater for the upcoming season. Their children's stuff isn't cheap, but it's not unreasonable for an independent children's store. I was really thankful that I found a place that sells clothing for children--in this case, holiday wear in particular--that is machine washable, because oftentimes children's clothing is marked as dry clean only (whyyyy). There is street parking in this area which can be limited, but I think there's also a Metra stop half a block away from the store.

I stumbled on the cutest children's boutique in Oak Park. Upstairs features smaller sizes (I saw…read moresizes up to 8, but mostly toddler sizes). Downstairs is "the vault", which features sizes up to 14/16 with sales up to 40% (maybe more depending on the time of the year). The vault is sectioned by sizes. At the bottom of the stairs is a clearance size with the discount percentage for the entire room. I visited in early October 2024 and there were many discounted spring/summer styles, with a few sweaters and sweatpants options. There's a couch in the middle of the floor to take a break or for your children so you can shop uninterrupted. The fitting room is upstairs toward the back of the store. Enjoy cute trinkets near the check-out register, plus the cutest wrapping paper that can be purchased. Sarah, the buyer and manager I believe, was so sweet and helped me hide some gifts from my daughter after she identified things she wanted. It's woman-owned, minority-owned and has a woman's boutique right next door, 16 suitcases.

My husband and I have shopped at Embrace for several years in Meadowview. November 2023, we stopped…read morein at the new location in Bradley, Il. I made a comment on how I liked the new store-Embrace and I was waiting on my husband cuz he was trying on jeans so I asked to use the restroom. While using the restroom, the same lady that I made a Nice comment to, yells through the door loudly, to not use a lot of toilet paper and continues to be rude yelling aloud so everyone could hear her & embarrassing me. I had shoulder surgery 5 days prior and I was struggling to try to use 1 hand to get pants down to use the toilet and to reach in to get toilet paper cuz they were low. After walking out, I was embarrassed and just wanted to get out of there. I told my husband & he tried talking to the workers explaining what happened. He couldn't talk to a manager cuz all of a sudden the managers were too busy. Which the lady who was being rude was one of the managers. No apology & didn't have the nerve to even talk to us. Another customer said she was rude to her too. How do you own a business when you are rude and are harassing your customers! You don't treat people like this! We will not be returning to this business ever again. We will give our business to those who treat us nice as customers. Maybe you shouldn't have opened your business until your plumbing issues were resolved. She said customers were coming in and plugging up her toilets. I guess they have only 1 toilet working but have a total of 3 or 4 toilets. Sounds like you need a plumber not blaming your customers.
