Farewell to Habit

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Sadly, another one of Chicago’s favorite boutiques is closing. After five years of fashionable service, Habit will close its doors this Saturday, July 31. This news comes some two weeks after a large storewide sale, “Best Habit Sale Ever,” that had us wondering if the end was drawing near. We hoped the tiny Division shop and its indie-chic fashion would pull through. However for some boutiques, the light at the end of this economic black hole is too distant to reach. The closure means a loss not only for patrons but also for the designers whom Habit supported throughout its lifetime.

In a letter to her shoppers, owner Lindsey Boland wrote, “I am fortunate to have made the acquaintance of so many wonderful customers and talented designers. I hope that my next adventure will be as rewarding as these Habit years.”

We hope that next venture brings more fashion to Chicago.
