The year is still young but one of Chicago’s most anticipated store openings has already occurred – the Marc by Marc Jacobs boutique finally opened its doors in Bucktown, to the delight of hip Chicagoans and stylish visitors alike.
Located on trendy Damen Avenue in a stark, minimalist space, the shop carries everything from canvas totes and kitschy bubble rings to the luxury items that Marc Jacobs is known for, including the cult favorite Stam bag and the “mouse” ballet flats.
In addition to these signature pieces, the boutique stocks a wide variety of affordable merchandise, including tons of logo t-shirts (many benefiting Marc’s favorite charities), quilted leather wallets and cosmetics bags, and a local exclusive: black and white rubber rain boots with the word Chicago splashed across the sides. Also showcased is his trademark Stinky Rat line of men’s polo shirts, lots of cozy thermals and cute casual dresses, and the entire collection of Marc Jacobs fragrances.
Longtime fans will find plenty to like – and purchase, whether they are ready to splurge on a new handbag or just want to take home a cheap and chic piece of jewelry endorsed by one of their favorite designers.
