Frannie

This younger cousin of old-guard Winnetka boutique Frances Heffernan stocks pieces that have a sense of quiet luxury: soft leather Henry Beguelin totes, Alexander Wang cocktail dresses, and Temple St. Clair gold amulet necklaces. The decorative elements of the space—simple aluminum fixtures, a wall-size chalkboard regularly updated with news of the store's latest arrivals—contribute to Frannie's overall relaxed, welcoming feel. One perk of shopping here is the in-house alteration department: A fleet of eight respected seamstresses is at the ready (and can turn around garments in record time).
