BiancaRose

LOVE my Bianca Rose! I live in town and Bianca Rose is my go to boutique for all the latest fashion trends. Whether its shoes, clothes or jewelry, this is the place to find QUALITY, trendy clothing at a reasonable price. When shopping at a boutique there are two things that are important to me, customer service and quality. All I can say is that they offer both and they go above and beyond. They truly listen to their customers needs and wants. The staff at BR always ring me when there’s a fabulous piece of fashion that they know I want. You have to check it out yourself and see the amazing deals at this beautiful gem called Bianca Rose.

So I missed the Unilocal rendezvous at BiancaRose last week. I thought I would check it out for a little Christmas shopping for the misses. There was so much to choose from. The gentleman working today was definitely a help and showed me a few suggestions which were fantastic. I would go into detail on my purchase, but I’ll wait until after Christmas. (Can’t let the wife read my review and blow the surprise, right?)
They really have a great mix of shoes, fashion and jewelry. Jelena, you can pick ‘em. The wife will like me hanging out with all ya’ll Unilocalsters if you keep picking great places like BiancaRose… so I can buy things for her.

Wow — I haven’t been into BiancaRose since the revamp, and I must say: The store looks absolutely gorgeous! It’s sleek, well-​organized with plenty of room to move and has several large mirrors. There’s an entire display dedicated to shoes, and there’s also a separate alcove for jewelry.
As usual, the fashion forward staff at BiancaRose have zeroed in on the bestest new fashions. They carry truly unique pieces, such as the drapey white top I picked up (I love wearing white in winter) which also came with a detachable silver obi-​style sash (hello, bonus!). The top was marked down from $ 75 to $ 45… the best part is I’ll be able to wear it slightly off-​shoulder with my favorite skinny jeans for a casual look or dress it up a bit if I pair it with a black pencil skirt. Also, they carry these fantastic black pants by Seven. They’re substantial, have a bit of stretch and are nothing like the black pants we all wore to the ground a decade ago.
I also fell in love with a black flecked with gold ribbed eternity loop — basically it’s a scarf without an ending. I was instructed how to loop it around twice or even drape it over my head to avoid the elements. You can also wear it without looping so it acts as a wrap with your sleeveless dresses. And the element of gold makes it fancy enough to pair with a cocktail dress. I’m clearly a little obsessed with this new take on the scarf.
Bianca is constantly getting new shipments in, so check back often! Simply a must-​visit boutique in Chicagoland.

Shopping for friends is the best thing ever, or the biggest pitfall.
There should be blinder goggles that diffuse the urge for walking into a store and rather than looking for your friend you find yourself looking for, you. I fail to epic proportions in this department. One of my closest friends has an upcoming birthday and while I normally love shopping for other people, she and I are very similar and it’s no surprise that if I find something stunning and worthy to fit in a closet or jewelry box, she will also. Which can pose a problem because it then becomes difficult in sending off the gifts.
Bianca Rose is the loveliest of boutiques this side of the city, most definitely. The shop itself is laid out with simplistic appeal; there are delicate dresses and interchangeable tunics along the wall, followed up by fun and spunky purses that could spice up any outfit. From black to pewter, you’re covered with a sheer fashion sense.
A very nice selection of platform heels in various colors, my personal favorite was the tan. Very sexy once paired up with a single colored dress. I was drawn into one of the dresses but had to remind myself a dozen of times that this is for your friend… put that down. Fail.
After passing by the wall of jewlery, you will fall in love at first sight. There are so many delicate and fresh necklaces as well as chandelier earrings that are flirty and sophisticated. For the gift I ended up getting a gorgeous gold bead with pearls bracelet/​bangle that will be getting shipped out tomorrow. The fail part of the visit, I walked away with a bag (intentionally going to send off with the bangle but figured it would cost an arm and a leg so… I guess I should keep it right?) and a gold necklace with a horseshoe charm and green gem. Overall the prices were outstanding and considerably lower than expected.
I do have to give a huge mention, that while the store is a wonderful find. The real experience was meeting the owner who was very open, engaging and enthusiastic about her merchandise that comes out from LA and NYC. She was fabulous and I have never felt so comfortable walking through a shop when I had been the only person inside upon walking in. Very gracious service, it is very clear that she is not only in tune with the latest fashions but she is heartfelt about who and what comes into her boutique.
Definitely on the radar for when I’m in the mood for any new additions to the wardrobe.

I’m addicted to Bianca Rose… in fact, it’s pretty much the only store I ever have to go into because they have everything I need!
In search of the latest trends? They’re on point. Is it a colder-​than-​you-​expected day and you left the house sans outerwear? Stop by Bianca Rose for the hook ups. Need a gift for your best friend’s birthday? Bianca has something she’ll love. It’s simply my go-​to shop for any occasion!
The staff is super knowledgeable and always eager to help you put together the perfect outfit. Whether it’s a night on the town or a casual dinner party, you’ll be sure to arrive in style after your visit to Bianca Rose!

Hello Bianca Rose, Goodbye Tax Refund!
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, this shop was sent from the heavens above. To sum it up, I’ll use a little word association.
Bianca Rose (the person): Gorgeous
The staff of BR: Wonderful
Bianca Rose (the shop): Magical
I was not at all prepared for this store. I mean, only a few days ago I was *thinking* of going retail free for a month, now here I am thinking about picking up extra shifts so I can make a habit out of this drug called Bianca Rose. 6 pairs of shoes, 2 scarves, 3 jackets, 1 pair of jeans, 1 ring, 2 cuffs, 1 tank, and tee later I had gotten my fix. I think the only things I didn’t buy were the things I already had in my closet. I love this store because not only is it a great stop for signature (yet affordable) quality pieces, but it’s a great shop for a lifestyle. Wanna be a rocker chick? Done. Wanna go Boho chic? Supplied. Wanna fox it up like the maneater you are? ‘Nuff said. Bianca Rose has got you covered (literally) from head to toe.
Love Always,
