Mint Julep

Amazing customer service! Purchased a pair of high end denim that I had to replace and they were great about it. My sister and I always find great items and the pricing is very reasonable. The best (and most reasonably priced) boutique on Southport.

Love the necklace that I recently purchased here. Hope to return soon and update my wardrobe.

My favorite boutique in all the land! I had been searching and searching for that perfect long necklace — every now and then I thought I found it, only to never wear it… BUT then I landed that perfect length gold necklace at Mint Julep. I can’t get enough of it! I wear it with everything… and you know what? EVERY time I wear it= multiple compliments… And the compliments come from from my 22 year old sitter, from my 30 &40 year old friends and even my 70 year old aunt! Now, that’s a necklace. I have also gotten many different pieces for my wardrobe too — which all become my favorites. Staff is wonderful and really helpful. Southport has become the place to be — And Mint Julep is the star! Go here… this is what Chicago is all about — small businesses rock!!!

I could walk in blind-​folded & always find an outfit that is on-​point…& the prices are super affordable! Love Sarah, Elizabeth & Staff!!! They give their clients personal attention, tailored looks to fit your style & most of all — honest feedback! An absolute must stop/​shop on Southport!

The fashion is a bit dated and some of the clothing is made out of rayon or polyester and they charge close to $ 70.
There is probably more interesting pieces in different neighborhoods.

Went by today to have owner help me with a necklace that didn’t work for me. I was nervous as I couldn’t find my receipt. Instead what I got was that the necklace was clearly from the store, and how can we help make you happy. Whaaaa?
I ended up with a dress which may be threadbare by end of summer as I’m sure I’ll wear it every chance I get! SUPER CUTE and flattering! Best part?, under $ 65. I also got a jumper and a «dinner w/​hubs» top. No kidding prices are perfectly reasonable and the selection is perfect. Plenty of choices, not overwhelming. Great spot.

Cute boutique with both high-​end (denim) & reasonable prices (everything else). If you’re looking for something unique there were a lot of cute tops, dresses and jewelry. The shop isn’t huge, but they offered plenty of things for different occasions in basic sizing (S-​L).
If I lived nearby, I’d stop here often as I’m sure their selection rotates pretty quickly!

I love this place! The staff is super helpful, they have amazing fashion sense, and do not just give you the most expensive items to try on. The woman helping me put together a few outfits that fit the occasion (my Birthday) and my body type perfectly. There was no pressure and she was very helpful.
It is a little pricey, but I think it is worth it. The clothes are unique and well made.
I will definitely be going back!

I love it here! I wish I could come in for a new outfit every day! They always have fun, unique items. I also love how they offer specials and participate in all of the events that are out on on Southport, like the Holiday stroll. They are so helpful in picking out clothes and make you feel welcome when you walk on.

Stopped in her last Saturday after seeing products all over Facebook. I have to admit I was impressed by my whole experience. Friendly and attentive staff who didn’t just tell you something look GREAT on you to make a sale! I will be back here for sure — Thanks girls!

I love popping in to Mint Julep whenever I’m in the Southport area. Sarah, the owner, is always so pleasant and has great recommendations. The merchandise in the store varies from some unknown inexpensive brands to well known name brands. I am obsessed with all of the MM Couture merchandise and found this super cute hi-​low red and white print dress. Mint Julep is a great place to get an easy top for going out that same day. I promise, they will always have something you like!

This is my favorite clothing store. There is a great selection of clothes and accessories. There are trendy items and classic items both and all adorable and some good bargains! Additionally, I’ve gotten some of the best undershirts and leggings here too!
The people that work here are the best. Helpful and friendly, without being pushy. I always ask for assistance and have found some of the best items based on their suggestions that I would never have picked myself!

If I had to pick one place to shop for the rest of my life, it would definitely be Mint Julep. Great selection of on-​trend pieces, along with lots of classics, basics and fun accessories! The majority of items are under $ 100 and I always wind up with a great bargain.
Just walked away with a pair of fleece lined leggings for under $ 20 and a great pair of gray skinny jeans for around $ 70! Mint Julep, you never disappoint!
Excellent customer service, never pushy, and just an all around fun shopping experience.

This boutique is so cute, fashion forward, and won’t break the bank! What sets them a part from the rest is the unique clothing that comes in and the fact that I can always find something there, quality pieces to add to my ever expanding wardrobe. I lived walking distance to this place for 2 years and went their often in search for a weekend top or party dress. Love Mint Julep!

I have always had great experiences at Mint Julep! My favorite thing about their store is the customer service. I am always greeted with a smile, and everyone always asks if they can help, but they are never pushy. I once spent a lot of time talking to the owner, and she is very down to earth and simply wants people to enjoy the merchandise.
I like their jewelry and accessories (handbags are cute and hold up well!) and everything is very unique. Sometimes I wish they had more variety and more to choose from, but overall I really like the boutique. And most importantly, I always feel welcome when I visit!

Hands down my favorite boutique in Chicago! The selection of clothing, jewelry, handbags, and various accessories is fantastic!!! My friend and I went looking for a fun top for my birthday weekend, and spent about 2 hours in the shop.
Now, most of the clothes are bit pricey, but you can find some great steals. The accessories are also very well priced. Handbags, clutches, scarves, rings, bracelets, necklaces, brooches, earrings headbands, oh my!
The clothing selection is a nice mix too, there are nice tops and casual tops; the same goes for their dresses. LOTS of cute summer dresses there too! Oh and they have a nice selection of Susana Monaco clothing which I adore.
And the ladies that work there are incredibly nice and persuaded me to get a few additional accessories by throwing in a discount. :)

Mint Julep is a trendy, moderately-​priced boutique with two locations. This location in Lakeview, or more specifically, the Southport Corridor, carries much of the same inventory as the Armitage location.
Pre-​sale garments tend to be pricey, but accessories — from scarves, to handbags, to jewelry — is always affordable.

Mint Julep always has a brightly colored & moderately priced collection in stock. They carry a range of fashion tops, casual dresses and vintage inspired pieces with an emphasis on the clean 1960’s mod look. Come here for bright colors, crisp designs and unique fashion jewelry.
If you like Tulle brand clothing and jackets they are about the only game in town (other than Una Mae’s in Bucktown). They also carry a great line of fashion jewelry mostly from K. Amato. Prices are reasonable & I’ve always had good service.
Some of my favorite buys from Mint Julep: long silver hand painted bird necklace with mirror backing ($ 64), cream pointenelle button up/​fold over turtleneck ($ 54), Orange corduroy short motorcycle cut jacket ($ 68) & gold/​fuschia heart-​shaped pedal flower ring ($ 12).

They would have gotten more stars but they are over priced.
I only go to this store for 2 things
1. Jewerly– They don’t have a ton (Francesca’s and M2 Boutique have more) but what they have is very girley and unique. I bought a necklace there last summer that I get 10,000 compliments on everytime I wear it. The jewerly is more appropriately priced (thou I’ve seen individual rings for $ 98 which I think is extreme).
2. Susana Monaco tops and dresses. She is a designer with some pricey threads… like $ 100 for a sleeveless «going out» top. But the fabric is FANTASTIC. Not clingy so that you see the uh, extra padding we all carry. But it’s a nice heavy quality fabric. The tops last forever and a day. And they should for the price. Great necklines that always make the girls look good n perky! And these tops are available in a lot of nice colors. They also have the tops in dress form, same material too. Go into the store and try a few styles of Susana Monaco on… you’ll like it!
But like I said, they didn’t get more stars because the prices are higher than Francesca’s and M2 Boutique.

Mint Julep is a great place to shop for modestly priced fashion.
Brands in stock include Tulle, Miss Me, Shoshana, and French Connection. It seems like half the items in the store are less than $ 100. The interior of the shop was recently renovated — looks sharp.
