If you are seeking a great piece of vintage to add to your wardrobe or collection of vintage wears and collectable knick-knacks/itemsl then you GOTTA stop in and check this place out!!
The owner is beyond stellar in her kindness and in the curation of this place and its offerings is OFF THE CHAIN! It's for real the Legit! and she Lives the Life! And has a great eye and curation skills! Truth!
I seriously cannot prop this place and the owner up enough! And I just walked in on a whim because I was drawn to this place as I was walking down the sidewalk, and seeing the owner smudge the energies surrounding her business; and by the slick vibes permeating from this place. Not to mention the killer selections in the window. I knew I HAD to go into this place. Thank goodness I did!
I honestly could not get past the first rack with the jackets!! Talk about FIRE! I snagged a great deal on a jacket that I feel is BEYOND and that is already commanding looks as I walk down the sidewalk!
Haters gonna hate but I don't pay them no mind, I just smile in kind! Peace and Love y'all! S.W.A.K.
Honestly, there was so much good stuff and I told her that I it was not fair that this place is so good because I now had decisions to make! UGH! I hate having to choose, and I knew if I did more looking around and trying things on, I would go broke in this store!! For real!
I want to support this place and person as much as possible because it was such a great experience and the conversation I had with the owner was real af and it was genuine! Real recognizes Real! Nuff said.
Top Notch All Around! If you are not getting pieces of vintage memorabilia or vintage pieces for a sick fit from here, then you're missing out on some real treasures! I can't wait to be able to go back and throw bags o' loot at this place! Sic Vintage!!
Thank you so much for your kindness and for being real with me! The planet needs more people like you and more friendly businesses in the area!! Always sending Peace and Love vibes to this place!”
“Store owner was great! I picked up an antique spoon and silver fork— not without getting a sticker of course. 1 thing to note with credit card must spend at least 10$Thanks Andy!”
“Rich's collectibles has a wide selection of many different collectibles and the owner is very friendly too. It's the perfect spot to find gifts for yourself or others at a great deal! Prices are very fair! Will be back again!”
“Stopped in while visiting the area and it was a pleasant experience. Bill is friendly, welcoming, and knowledgable of the pieces at the shop. We will definitely be looking out for items on the Instagram page.”
“Emilia is absolutely ? fantastic!!! I came to her in hopes to find a luxe designer buyer in Chicago. I read the reviews and was confident she could help me sell. I sold an exquisite CHANEL le Boy purse and got a great fair price for it. Unfortunately, I've been buying all my stuff from apps that claim their luxe items are amazing. Only to find when the package arrives I receive less than par quality items. I am so happy I found Mr. & Mrs. Digz. Not only do they give you top dollar for your pristine condition luxe items, they are available for you to shop confidently on what you buy from them. It's not your typical consignment shop. Emilia, thank you, thank you, I have found a true stellar shop. And, you my friend are aces with your amazing customer service!!! I will forever appreciate our deal today. And, look forward to selling and buying from you with confidence. 100 stars ? for you and your shop.”
“I have never found so many pieces that I love in one trip. The items are curated so well and at fair prices. You don't have to look for hours before finding something interesting.The vibe of the place is really cute and the owner is super nice. She told me that there are new items circulating in almost daily as well. Definitely a place I want to return.I'm taking off a star because of the lighting however... although it is a fun ambience, the dim lighting makes it really hard to see what you're actually looking at. I ended up with jeans that I thought were a stonewashed blue, but were actually a kind of nasty yellow-tinted color. I'm going to try and bleach them because they're amazing otherwise!But my advice to the owner is to create better lighting, even if it's only in/near the fitting room. That would help so so much!”
“really cute little place. they have tons of vintage clothes that are organized by color. i found lots of things that you don’t see most places. there are lots of knick knacks packed in, as well.”

“shopped today after not visiting for several years (we don’t live nearby, the panny, etc) and it was better then ever! the store has expanded, the range of sizes was great, and the deals were excellent. the selection of new toys, gifts, and craft sets was also really cool. plus the customer service is unparalleled! we’ll be back soon.”
“Super cute shop in Ravenswood/Lincoln Square. I’ve purchased a few items including a vintage refurbished desk and their super warm washable wool blankets.I’m giving it 4 stars because they’ve started selling more “new” furniture and less vintage or refurbished furniture - which isn’t my thing.The staff have always been super helpful and knowledgeable about all of their products, so if you have questions they will definitely have answers.Make sure to check out this local shop, I’m sure you’ll find something you enjoy.”
“This place is enough to make you move to the neighborhood! We spent 2 hours happily browsing and finding treasures. My Ju-Ju met the owner Juju and she was as lovely as you would imagine. The whole staff and experience were exceptional. We will be back! We love our treasures (and thanks for talking me into the hat, it was meant to be)”
“I am a big fan of mint home twice over. I bought a vintage Heywood Wakefield dresser from them that I love. And then I commissioned J. Shay to do a custom painting for my living room which I adore every day!”
“Good options, combination of new/vintage, some trinkets and fun accessories. Little expensive for a thrift store but they have sales and deals pretty frequently.”
“The pictures shown were different from when I went. The store was quiet but some people are just shy and timid. I tired on a few items but unfortunately didn’t fit correctly. I did buy a paper link chain that I was trying to learn more about. The jewelry was my favorite to browse.”
“The owners are genuinely super cool and have a very keen eye I would say there's specialty is American Art Deco mixed with some French but they had very unique few pieces of Memphis which is a design Style from the '80s out of Italy very hard to find and of course they had it the owners are knowledgeable fun and creative problem-solving and we'll have no problem sending clients in there without me to look at recommendations I have discovered at this place.”
“Such a cool shop! I recently visited this shop for the first time and feel in love with so many of their items. I ended up purchasing a pair of vintage chairs and love them in my space.My overall experience was great. The staff were super helpful when purchasing the chairs, they had them cleaned for me, and made picking them up super easy. I would highly recommend visiting this shop, you’ll definitely find something you’ll love.”
“My sister and i grew up in that neighborhood and the owners never batted an eye at us spending lots of time sitting on the floor reading Archie comics. And also the vintage items. Years later i brought my niece who also delighted at the clothes and history and delightful pieces. Love Shangri-La. Thank you to the owners!”
“As a reseller I found so many good buys vintage, luxury brands and customer service was amazing. You have to be patient with a hunter like myself. They called the owner as I had a question. Wow that’s impressive and then the owner came to meet me Dapper was he in a vintage suit and tie accessorized with a wide brimmed hat. Most impressive and handsome too. I will be back.

“Such a community gem. I’ve loved the different workshops I’ve attended. I appreciate being able to buy materials from the warehouse - which provides affordable materials and keeps them out of the landfills. Their job force training has been life changing for my son and others.”
“This is by far one of my two favorite stores. I find the most beautiful treasures that are reasonably price. To make it feel better that I am buying when I should not, I am able to consign what I no longer want with them. The staff is very friendly. I wish I knew about them years ago. If you are looking for vintage or classy look furniture or art work this is the place to go.”
“Always stop by here when I am in the area. One of the best thrift stores I have been too. Always clean and organized. You can go every day because there is always new stuff out!”
“I just happen to find this little Gem by accident, lol. Its a little consignment store they have antiques, big and small, all very reasonably priced. My mother-in-law bought a small glass cabinet for dvds and nic-nacs. It was beautiful wood and glass 4 shelves for $70.00, which we thought was a great price. They have a range of items there glasses, dishes, pictures, furniture, rugs, etc. They had a cute small chandelier for $25.00. I just bought one. I was bummed about that because the one they had was cuter! If you are into this kind of stuff or redecorating, give them a try. It's small but worth it.”
“Outskirts is a rare find with funky & unique pieces. The owners are incredibly warm and helpful…fun too! Kate has mended and altered a few items for me as well; they were all done professionally & perfect. Just what I wanted! Great store and customer service!”
“The staff is friendly and helpful. I fortunately visited during 25% sales and in my size find great deals. It's crowded usually during those sales so keep that in mind. They are closed on specific days so plan accordingly.”
“Tricky to find, but has an extremely well curated selection of beautiful, high-quality pieces. If you like shopping secondhand but don't want to deal with huge stores where you have to treasure hunt, this is the shop for you. The prices are higher than Goodwill or Salvation Army, but that's because the owners work hard to curate a fabulous selection. It really is a "resale boutique". The sale rack is where you will find great deals. I found 3 beautiful pieces there, and my total was $20.Tip for finding it: they are located in a business complex off Old Deerfield Road, so the storefront isn't visible from the road. If you're driving towards Jewel-Osco, make a left turn right after you pass the bike path. You will still be on Old Deerfield Road (not sure how this works), and then the store will be immediately on your right.”
“This is the best thrift shop I have ever been to in my life! Like stepping into a magical fairyland it goes on forever and ever. Don't miss the basement but watch your head! They have vintage everything: clothes, furniture, home goods. Also an enormous supply of Halloween and cos-play costumes, A definite must visit for any thrift lover!”
“Very fun vintage store and one of those stores that wherever you look you see a surprise to make you smile . It was one of my favorites to visit when I was in the Lakeview area.”
“This is a new owner and completely new merchandise. Prices are very fair and the owners are very friendly and courteous. Please support the small business by either donating, consigning or purchasing here. I have nothing to do with this business, but as a small business owner in the same community I want them to do well. The majority of their items are high end designer including Lululemon, Tory Burch etc.”
