Charlotte Russe

Chicago flagship of the youthful, fashion-forward chain finds a home on State Street.

In Short
Joining the ranks of H&M, this inexpensive, super trendy store added a Chicago location to its roster. The ever-busy shop is packed with slinky, psychedelic-print shirts, cropped denim jackets and scallop-collared sweaters. Skimpy, club-appropriate tanks hang from racks, babydoll tops are piled high atop tables and slouchy handbags comprise the constantly rotating inventory.

Don't Lose Your Mind in this Store!

by GoldenAsh at Citysearch

Going downtown especially for shopping is a very difficult temptation. I was planning on just walking past Charlotte Russe and I ended up spending three hours inside and leaving with 4 bags of merchandise and spending well over $100. Umm clearly I didn't this spontaneous visit included in my budget. On their two floors, they have clothes, accessories, swimwear, sleepwear, shoes, coats, everything pretty much.

I love this store! The girls who work there are so helpful and nice. They picked out a whole outfit for me that i loved, but it didn't cost a fortune.

ps. the shoes are a STEAL.

• Pros: very affordable yet fashionable clothing
• Cons: the techno music is a bit much
