Jayne

An absolute favorite for fashion conscious shoppers on Madison Street that rivals most city and suburban chicest shops! For good prices all around, Jayne has the same premier brands and styles that cost significantly less there than some of our very popular mass outlets, and everything is current to the date and the season. There were so many options of fashionably sharp, stylish, useful and very tempting separates, it was nearly impossible to leave the shop without looking like a stereotypical shopaholic on the loose.
Like Anthropologie, Jayne sells my #1 favorite Capri Blue/​Aspen Bay/​DPM Fragrance, Inc. candles, which are the loveliest scented candle and the only one that doesn’t cause a raging migraine from the host of chemicals used in most other brands candles.
It’s also nice to support small businesses, especially when those businesses have wonderful staff who are just the right amount of helpful and exciting, fun and usually useful merchandise!

OP/​RF/​FP people, listen up, you have got to check out this place!!! Aside from them having the most adorable clothes, it is also immensely affordable for a boutique. I came in on a whim when I was walking down Madison St. The exposed brick and clean layout remind me of a lot of the high-​end stores in Wicker Park/​Lincoln Park area.
Everything is so well priced. I found Free People clothes for much cheaper than you would find at the FP store or even Nordstrom Rack. They also have some smaller name designer brands that have very unique cuts and styling. I cannot say enough great things about this place! Support local business and find a piece or two to add to your wardrobe.
I haven’t been into the place in a while, but now that I am back in the area I am really excited to check the place out again.

All clothes and female accessories live here. This store is the spin off from Madison street shoes which is right across from them in forest park. Staff are helpful. The pieces in there are very unique so you will definitely find things here that are not department store repeats.
Sometimes I feel like there are too many options but not always. The clearance items can be sparse but maybe that’s changed.
There is street parking which can be free if it’s right out front. Clean dressing rooms. That is all.

This place is a bit pricey but you can find some great stuff on sale. The girls are always really friendly and helpful, not snooty at all. I like that when I buy stuff here I don’t see myself 100 times on the street. Really unique, trendy pieces made with quality fabric.

I was thrilled when Craig, owner of Madison Street Shoes & Craig’s Shoes, opened up Jayne right in my neighborhood! They have really high quality, designer clothing (some made in U.S. too!) without boutique or Anthropologie prices. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to find clothes that are original with a great variety. They get new clothing in all the time, so I can stop in weekly and there are always new items to see. Really helpful staff too. Not pushy or trying to upsell on pricier items.
Shop local!

Love this store! Their clothing is adorable and very decently priced. They have sales often and the girls that work there are very sweet and helpful. I brought in a shirt last week that I bought a month or so before because I noticed a button was missing when I went to wear it the first time. I was going to exchange it but they didn’t have another in my size… I thought I was s.o.l because it was a pretty unique button that I wouldn’t be able to find at a fabric store… And then ended up elated because one of the girls found an extra matching button and freaking sewed it on for me! So awesome! The owner is a pretty cool guy, too. Thanks, Jayne!

This place is great! Everything inside is really cute and the employees are so helpful– which is exactly what I needed when shopping for Christmas presents for my mom. She’s the «I don’t need anything» & «Don’t buy me anything!» & «Surprise me!» type. It makes shopping hell– especially when you procrastinate until the day before Christmas eve!
I walked in to the store and they were having a 25% off sale (perfect!). Two employees right away asked me if they could help me with something, so I told them a little bit what I was looking for and they got to work. I wound up showing them a picture of my mom and telling them a little bit about her and they showed me some perfect options. It was almost like they knew her just from listening to me talk for 5 minutes. Hell, they sure were able to pick out jewelry for her better than I could after knowing her 24 years.
The price was a little high, but the sale made it manageable and the quality & look on my mom’s face on Christmas made it worth it :) Not sure I’ll be buying my own jewelry there in the future, but this is definitely a fun spot to shop for others.

Cute clothes… just the right amount of hipster without being bucktown obnoxious. Nice gals working there and reasonable prices. I will be back for sure!

I would definitely call myself a fan of this place. My clothing budget is basically nonexistent. I still wear things I wore in high school and I’m a haggard old 30 year old now, so ’tis a rare occasion when I enter a business that sells clothing with the intention of purchasing something for myself.
Enter my Mother:
My Mother was in town visiting her plethora of relatives (and me by default) and since she is a shopaholic who loves spending my Dad’s money (a statement that would surely offend her), we spent a morning and afternoon «shopping.»
Jayne had various textiles that were pleasing to my eye and while not outrageously priced, still out of my personal wardrobe budget — again, this is not saying much.
They were having a 20% off everything sale so I did actually «splurge» and get an orange sweater dress thing that I will wear with brown tights and brown boots (an Autumn staple for me) and I scoped out the clearance stuff and scored a Free People shirt for like $ 15 after 70% off. For someone as thrifty as me, it’s rather odd that I love Free People, but I do. I only own a couple pieces, but I love looking at them and wishing I could afford more.
I am going to regularly scour that clearance section from here on out. I think I’ve also said that about numerous other stores, but hopefully this time I mean it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the offerings in Jayne. When looking online, I thought that the merchandise would be too young for me, or priced out of my range, but I was wrong. This was stop #3 on our VIP night and I managed to find a dress that is very me and a toy for the dog! Who knew? I might have been tempted to buy more if this was stop #1, but I was burning out. I believe women of any age could find clothing here that suits their style — give it a try!

So glad this place has opened. They are such a cute store, great look inside and awesome clothing and accessories. They are a breath of fresh air on Madison. They are geared a bit more towards the young vibe, not teen, just not the typical «Chicos» style of clothing I tend to see on Madison. My friend bought a great summer dress and I got a sweet beaded bracelet. I loved so many things and the prices were better than I thought they would be after seeing their stuff. I will be back, cannot wait to see what they will have in next. Heres to hoping they get some shoes in the future.
