Intermix

One-stop shopping for Chi-town fashionistas, shop offers great blend of cutting edge chic and ready to wear classics in their Near North Side location (one of three in town), which tend to be planted in the center of everything, or at least other shops. But beware, you might have to elbow out crowds on new inventory days for that new Ya Ya frock. If you don't get it, no worries: while their inventory might not run too deep, Intermix's style certainly does.
