Third Street Habit

Fantastic selection of beautiful clothes, jackets, accessories and jeans. I’ve shopped here on and off for years and am always impressed. I love boutique shopping in Old City and this store is at the top of my list. Perhaps what most impressed me though is there remarkable customer service. I purchased a jacket there recently, and the two employees working were the kindest and most helpful women. I have also spoken to the manager there before who is friendly, genuine, and seeks to ensure customers are satisfied. I am rarely impressed by good service but I have to give it to Third Street Habit, good job! And thanks, I’ll remain a loyal customer to this fabulous small business.

Great selection of brands.
Sales associate was sweet, not pushy, and very helpful. Though the brands are high end, the store is not the least bit snooty. I would recommend it to friends, and will most certainly return!

I owe the discovery of this gem to a great friend and I am actually shocked that a shopping freak like me took this long to check it out.
It’s about time a place like this existed in Philadelphia!!!
I was originally told to check out this store for their fabulous selection of jeans. I am in my 30s and had yet to find the perfect pair. Well, I tried on about 8 at Third Street Habit (thanks to the wonderful sales girl who picked them all out for me) and my only issue was that I didn’t know which to choose since they all fit like gloves!
Another one of my favorite things about this store is their collection of designer shoes that you’d normally not find in the city: Isabel Marant, Anine Bing… I actually picked up a pair of Anine Bing booties I had been eyeing online for months at 40% off!
Overall, the only negative about this place is that I end up maxing out all my credit cards.
The service is great, the pieces are great, this place is as good as it gets.

Sigh. If only I had enough money to actually shop at this store instead of browse. I commonly walk past this store and stop to admire the mannequins in the window, I love the selection and style of clothes in this store. But, hel-​lo expensive.
If you can afford this store, it is most certainly worth a peek. Great designer clothes, jewelry, and overall ambiance.
Hopefully one day I can become a frequent customer.

One can argue over which boutique is THE BEST in Philadelphia, but who really cares as long as there’s more than one? Third Street Habit definitely deserves to be at the top of the list, and is a must visit for any woman strolling around Old City.
The key to their boutique success lies in their stock. Whoever their buyer is, they know how to pick looks that are spot on trend for the season without being TOO trendy. These are items you can and will wear again, and considering how much you have to pay for them you better do so! Higher end designs permeate the racks, although you can find the occasional moderately priced shirt. Bottom line is you pay for quality, so if you aren’t prepared just go straight to the sale racks in back, which at least get marked down pretty well. If you’re looking for J Brand or similar jeans, this is the place to go to.
Staff is very friendly and will either leave you be (if that’s what you want) or offer helpful advice should you ask for it. You will be guaranteed a pleasant shopping experience, regardless of whether or not you actually end up buying anything. And sometimes Third Street Habit can surprise you — I just bought a pair of Marais booties (SOOOO cute, SOOOO perfect for fall!) that are more expensive on the company’s website than they were in this boutique!

I live in the neighborhood and always feel welcome when I go to Third Street. I have never purchased a great deal from them but I have always had a great experience. Their sale stuff is marked down quite low comparatively and their product is unique to Old City. They always have current stuff never old t-​shirts sitting around that just happen to be name brand. Their jean selection is on par with Barneys Coop. The selection on jeans is always current and never just one brand. Also the staff is honest. If something does not look right they will tell you. Happy shopping. P. S. They have a great Ella Moss Long Fall Maxi Dress that I just saw on Saturday.
The prices match the designer.

Pricey pricey pricey! But it carries some quality brands and unique merchandise. The salespeople were helpful and kind and offered me a styling tip I wouldn’t have come up with myself. I’ll come back, but I’m definitely shopping off the sale rack.

If money were no object, I would agree the best in Ye Olde City. Love the selection — Rag & Bone, Black Halo, Graham & Spencer, great bags and usually some eye catching jewelery (more wearable to me than Topstich, which I also LOVE).
I go to their blog for cool ideas for ensembles when I want to get out of my comfort zone. I think their style is sophisticated, yet wearable. More attention to high quality fabrics and details then of-​the-​moment trends. A place to go to buy a quality item that will last.
That said, I wish they had a few more affordable pieces (like around $ 50) for impulsive sprees that won’t break the bank!

One of the best clothing stores in the city. If I need something original, this is where I go. The staff has a great eye, and even keeps my budget in mind. Everything they pick out looks great on me.

Third Street Habit is surely an apropos name as it could easily become a very bad one!
In my opinion this is both the chic-​est & funkiest clothing boutique in Old City. It carries a plethora of contemporary designer names from Gwen Stefani’s L.A.M.B. to La Rok, to Sass & Bide…& *so* many more! What really strikes me about this boutique is their selection of jackets & coats in the fall. I’m not so into jackets (trousers are my fashion fetish) but when I walk in here when their fall stuff is out, I lust after each and every fabulous jacket in the store! Someone there has amazing taste in outerwear!
Want something sassy & fun to wear out to for a swanky drink date tonight? They’ve got it.
How about a chic lil dress to wear to your anniversary dinner? That’s here, too.
What about a cute new pair of denim? Sure — just head to the back of the boutique where they have a nice little section set aside just for denim.
Oh — and sale items — continue your stroll around back there to check out some decent sale prices on some great pieces that your closet will appreciate holding.
