Jeans & A Cute Top Shop

Really cute stuff! And they were so accommodating about a return even though they 100% didn’t need to be (the policy was very clearly written on the receipt). Can’t wait to come back and get some kut jeans and shop for some spring clothes!

Jill (the owner) and her team are simply the best! Excellent selection at a reasonable price. They always help me accessorize but are never pushy. I used to only shop online but they make it worth going in person. If you haven’t been you must try!

Best boutique shop ever! I have bought several different tops and love all of them. Last spring I bought a jacket that I adore!

I’m really surprised at some of the negative reviews here as this place is awesome. The store is packed with jeans (Miss Me, Silver, Mavi & more), fabulous tops, accessories and boots. They cater to women of varying sizes and their selection ranges from casual to classy to dressy. There is nothing you can’t find that you wouldn’t absolutely love – I walked out of there with a pair of Miss Me jeans, an animal print belt, gray tank top, chunky bracelet and shirt for under $ 200. Couldn’t resist and went back for a gorgeous pair of boots and velvet gloves. The staff was attentive, courteous and made great suggestions. They were also not afraid to tell you a pair of jeans didn’t fit quite right. After all they said, «If its not perfect, its not for you. We want you to look good and feel good about your purchase.» If you’re in the area, stop by and check this place out, you”ll be glad you did.
P. S. They also run coupons and fun little contests on their facebook page for holiday prizes, another plus :)

Jeans and a Cute Top Shop is a fun, exciting, and happy place to shop! The clothing in this wonderful little boutique is so «up-​to-​the-​minute»! They carry a wide array of lines, sure to appeal to all shoppers. The Last Tango line they carry is such a «go to» piece for everyday, that transitions into evening. And with the colors and styles they carry, I always walk out with 2 or 3! Their jeans are fun: Silver, Miss Me, Kut, and so many more that always look great. Jill, Jennifer and the staff would NEVER let you walk out in a pair of jeans that weren’t right for you. If you haven’t had a chance to stop in, be sure to put it on your «to do list» in the very near future… IT IS DEFINATELY WORTH THE TRIP… and it is usually WHAT I AM WEARING!
Thanks for this AWESOME boutique, Jill!

If you’re looking for something specific– Jeans and a Cute Top Shop is really hit or miss. It’s strange — their prices are high, but the quality on a lot of their clothes seems quite poor (I bought a $ 75 Kensie sweater and the hood ripped at the seam less than a week later!) Also– a lot of their tops look very cheap .
Their jewelry selection is very small– and, like their clothing and accessories, over priced.
Their staff has never gone out of their way to help me, ask how I’m doing, or even acknowledge my presence. For being a «local shop», I’d really expect a little more customer service. It’s unfortunate that downtown Wheaton is lacking in cute boutiques — one would be much better off visiting downtown Glen Ellyn and and trying Enchantments or Alli Kat.
Also– in reference to those who have compared J&ACTS’s denim selection to Nordstrom — Nordstrom also does free alterations, their sales associates act like they care (although they’re working on commission!), and from what I’ve experienced, the prices are the same — if not LESS than J&ACTS

I LOVE this shop! I can always find a cute top or pair of jeans. I got a pair of jeans a few weeks ago that I haven’t seen anywhere else and I get compliments on them all the time (Vigoss Studio). They have items at all price points. You can get a top for under $ 50 and jeans for under $ 75. The staff has always been wonderfuln including letting me try things on that were not ready for the floor that I saw when I popped downstairs to use the washroom. Worth a visit!

This store has the cutest clothes and jeans for much less than the designer pairs at Nordstrom. The owner Jill is so sweet and helpful. The store has fun things going on, they give you a mimosa and help you shop. I really like going in there. I always find cute items. I don’t agree with the other Unilocaler that said Uptown girl was a better experience. I went in there several times and could not find one item i would wear. The owner marks everything up way too high. Jeans and a Cute top has friendly staff, cute clothes, and a great selection.

I went in the shop in St. Charles today for the first time and had a great experience. Both of the women there were very helpful and they had a nice selection of things I had not seen before. I found great jeans that I had never heard of before that were super cute and less than half of what I usually pay for my other brands (Joe’s, Paige). LOVE the free hemming as I always have to hem them. Nice touch. The selection of truly cute tops was a little less than I would have liked, but I’ll be back.

A friend and I drove to Wheaton especially to check out this shop. I was not at all impressed. Their clothes were nice, but their prices were outrageous.
The staff was not friendly– never said «hello» or asked if they could help us find anything. So we left and found a few other boutiques which had WAY cuter clothes and much better prices. I will definitely go back to Wheaton to shop, but I’ll be hitting «Elements and Stars Boutique» and «Uptown Girl» instead. We were treated really well at both those shops and found some nice clothes!

Super tiny, and I was followed around non-​stop. I don’t like feeling like I’m buying a car when I am just browsing. The prices here are insane IMO.
I was pressured into buying jeans I didn’t even like, and when I read the receipt, they are returnable for «store credit only». Great, I just wasted $ 118.00 on a no-​name pair of jeans when i could’ve gone to Nordstrom Rack and gotten better quality jeans (Sevens) for less!

I stopped in here with my new daughter after having lunch in Wheaton. We stopped in and both of us got very cute tops that are unique. You won’t see them coming and going like things from chain stores. I love the personality of the woman in charge yesterday. Very friendly and helped my daughter to find something she would like. We both left feeling happy with our little brown shopping bags. I will certainly come back for more shopping when looking for a unique top. My top came from the window display so that is what caught my eye. I will need to spend more time in there when I come again. And for fall, I think I will need to bring both daughters in for a treat of another cute top.

I am not sure if this shop is associated with the one in St. Charles, but
I was so anxious to get a new store in St. Charles, my first experience was not a good one, very cute clothes but the staff never said a word to me,
no greeting, no attention, nothing. I walked. I did not go back for a very long time and then the other day I went in there with my daughter,
same thing. The staff has NO PERSONALITY. For being a local shop they need to be more personable. I had book club that night and mentioned it to my friends and they all had a similar experience and said they would rather go to Von Maur where the staff was friendly. Too bad
this is a great town and St. Charles woman like to shop and look good.

Although this store is small, their products are beautiful and fashionable, and the service is outstanding. I’ve been to this shop twice and both times came away very satisfied. I LOVED the jean selection, and I’m picky about my jeans. The top I bought on my last visit is my new favorite. I get so many compliments on it, and it wasn’t that expensive!

Everytime I go to the shop and I have fun trying on clothes — I always find something really unique and it fits beautifully. No matter what your size, you will find something great. The customer service is beyond helpful and they always find exactly what you are looking for!!!

I love to shop here. Everything is unique and there isn’t a massive supply of every product. The items are all completely in fashion and up to date. The clerks working the store are very knowledgeable of everything in the store and are great help in finding the perfect item for you. I really love the boutique feel and supporting a locally owned small business, especially one owned by another woman! For fresh, in-​style clothing that makes you feel special every day, go no further!

I went in really wanting to like this place because its a locally owned boutique, but it really just made me feel claustrophobic. It’s a slightly smaller space but yet they have a TON of merchandise they cram into it. The sales floor is filled with rounders that are stuffed to the brim with one or two of an item left, giving the feeling that it’s a sale rack, but it’s not. They had really pretty jewelery but it was hard to weave through the maze of rounders to get to the display. I’m also not a big fan of their jean selection– if you like the True Religion feel with chunky stitching you would like it, but it’s just not my taste.
They did have a lot from Tulle– which is one of my all time favorite brands that I get in a boutique in Naperville but a lot of it was things i had seen last year, which leads me to believe they buy overstocks. Which is totally fine– but it was all stuff i had seen before so i didn’t but anything.
The ambiance is ok, although against the back wall is a flight of stairs that i was confused about– is there more down there or not? It looked closed off so I didn’t go down. The people in their were friendly, they were busy helping that large amount of other customers in their but they were very helpful.
Definitely go check it out, you’ll definitely find something you like– but if you claustrophobic go at a time they wont be super busy like early in the morning or right before they close.
