Clothing Stores in La Grange, IL

“I was there a few weeks ago. I was looking for a hat but left with a three-pack of Field Notes notebooks. It has a mix of outdoorsy gear and shirts for men. If you're a camper type of person or need gift ideas for men, this is worth checking out. Small place, but with a cool atmosphere. I was thinking they should start selling coffee and put a table in that small room, but that would make it even more cramped.”

“I would like to start my review by saying "HELLO DARLING." This was an interesting shop for me because I was unsure whether this shop would have anything for me. But, upon suggestions, I ventured to this shop. I was in this area previously but never knew that there was a hidden gem (shop) in the area. Where were you "The Darling Shop"? Upon entering the store, the store associate welcomed me by placing a white disco ball necklace around my neck (I felt like I was given a medal for partying hard lol) and handed me the goodie bag. She was sweet and patient. As a part of the event, the goodie bag had white disco ball necklace, pink disco ball drink tumblers, facial cleansing wipe, nail polish and some stickers. She explained to me a little history about the store. It blew me away when I knew that this store sells their goods from local area small businesses, people etc. The Darling shop is a stage for all these mini businesses where every product is made with minute detail. This was my first surprise. The store had party stuff, women's fashion, baby stuff was on the right side from the counter, home goods, sunglasses on the left side to the wall and many more. There was one section where they had various kinds of greeting cards. There were a variety of things in the store. My first look was that it was a store for women but as I went around for a bit then it was eye-catching when I saw they had a small section for men which was my second surprise. They had Men's accessories, clothing, and grooming. Upon looking, I bought a black pair of socks for myself. To sum up, the store was cool with such a variety of daily goods. I could not get to meet the owner NIKKI, but the store instantly gives you happy vibes with all the positive quotes around the store and for the stuff they are selling. I also checked out their website which was great, but the only recommendation is it would be nice if the font color is white (other color) on top and bottom of the website as it can be more visible. I would recommend my friends to explore this store. Lastly, for me, THE DARLING STORE = INSTANT HAPPINESS.”

“A fabulous boutique shop locally owned by the sweetest couple Heidi and Scott Morrow! They have a great selection of items for the home and I always find gifts here. Its a smaller shop so it never overwhelms you but selection is very intentional. They also have a rewards program which is really nice for frequent shoppers. They own the Alley Shop around the corner and host pop ups and the most amazing Santa Experience as well. Highly recommend stopping in!”

“We recently had our 1 yr old’s birthday party through Waterlemon at the RSC and it did not disappoint! The venue is aesthetic/beautiful (honestly don’t even need much in terms of decor) and perfect for hosting adults and kids with activities and more than enough space for everyone! Nina was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the planning process and in helping us set up for the party the day of. Appreciated all of her insight/guidance as I am not the best planner! We received so many compliments from our guests- super happy with how everything turned out. Highly recommend Waterlemon!”

“Ahhh…’V3’, as I affectionately refer to it. Our La Grange visits are never quite complete until I step through their shop door. It’s such a lovely place to shop for something one-off. And the owner/manager is always ready with a warm, wonderful + welcoming smile. It stocks a bit of everything that delights the eye. It has unique wall art-to-heart + clothing, ceramics and jewelry, etc.

They say it’s all about the experience + this whimsical shop provides it and then some.”

“Items are great and the sale section is very reasonably priced. BUT, the size range is very limited. I am a 12 and pretty much the largest size they carry in everything. Totally understand not wanting to carry a huge stock, but they do not even carry the larger end of "standard" sizes. Just wish they advertised this someone so people do not waste their time.”
