Love and Pieces

OH NO!!! Took a ride on Mother’s Day and THE STORE IS GONE!!! Closed! Brown paper in the window! Haven’t called the number yet… So sad.

I live in Chicago by Indiana so whenever I go to Bucktown I have to stop in here. Michelle is always funny, personable and welcoming and I always walk out with something beautiful. They feature local designers and the bags and jewelry are always unique and beautiful.
And, the nice thing is that she remembered us too! And even sent my husband a delicious vegan recipe. How cool is that?
I highly recommend visiting!

It’s like Michelle opened her store just for me… Amazing items and a wonderful owner. Although this location is closing — I am excited to continue to purchase her unique items via the internet.
Highly recommend! It is worth every cent!

Local artist’s pieces.

This shop is tiny and you might walk past it if you’re not looking for it. It is located right next to the Benefit Cosmetics Boutique.
I love a good pair of earrings so I decided to pop in and take a quick peek. The store is bright and clean. The jewelry displays look good and the store is very organized. I loved the little transparent stands that displayed the pieces. Just a note, the stickers are on the bottom so double check for that.
Unfortunately, nothing really caught my eye. The jewelry was a bit pricey for me (I saw some earrings in the $ 40s) and I tend to misplace my earrings as well, so I was hesitant to buy.
The quality of the jewelry does look good so I think I definitely will stop by again when I have some more time and money. I can get crowded in there quick since it is small so it can be a bit uncomfortable looking around.

I am so excited that I discovered this store! I first noticed it when passing by but it was closed and I didn’t get to see the full selection… lucky for me, my boyfriend noted my enthusiasm and got me a couple pieces for Christmas. The necklace he chose was a little short so I took it back to see if it could be lengthened. While there, I fell in love with almost everything else there, including a particular stone.
I was thrilled to find out from the staff that the owner (who is one of the designers), Michelle, would be willing to work with me on customizing the necklace. Michelle called me as soon as she was back at the store and we arranged a time for me to come in. She showed me several variations of the stone I liked and once I picked one she substituted it onto my necklace and adjusted the length until it was perfect — all in about 20 minutes.
I would recommend this to anyone shopping for themselves or others. It’s a great variety of unique jewelry ranging from dainty stackable rings and delicate necklaces to large statement pieces, not to mention the opportunity to design your own. The prices are reasonable and the customer service superb!

Im a frequenter of this establishment and have never gotten anything but EXCEPTIONAL service from Michelle and her team. Love & Pieces is simply the cutest boutique and the staff is even nicer. On of of my first visits Michelle, the owner, and I talked for a little while and we built up a nice rapport. At checkout, Michelle threw in a beautiful headband free-​of-​charge for being «friendly.» That’s what I call A+ customer service! How NICE of her! I knew then that I would be a loyal customer.
I got married recently and purchased all of my bridesmaids jewelry at this store. To this day one of my bridesmaids wears a pair of earrings I got for her everyday.

This boutique is my favorite jewelry in Chicago, and it’s SO AFFORDABLE! I love delicate jewelry and Michelle honestly creates and buys pieces that are exactly what I would design if I could. Not only that, but both Michelle and Natalie (one of the salespeople there) are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. They both gave me a hug when I left and were more than helpful and friendly. LOVE THIS PLACE!

I love this store. I bought a cute little flower charm necklace from there and I wear it almost everyday. The owner is very friendly and very helpful. The pricing is pretty competitive for the neighborhood. I will be going back there again and again.

Michelle, the owner of Love & Pieces is the best! Super helpful and friendly. She goes out of her way for you, is even kind enough to repair jewels that didn’t come from her store.
And she is great with recommendations. If you have a special outfit or color or whatever to work with, bring it on in! She can help make it even better with fun and pretty jewels and accessories.
Just go, it’s always a party in there!

Just wanted to drop a quick line. I live near LA and was on a short visit seeing the sites in the Windy City. Wicker Park was a nice surprise I didn’t know it was near or part of Buck Town?
This little shop caught my eye as I was looking for Bridesmaids gifts/​jewelry. What I liked was that the lady working the front counter wasn’t pushy and let us look around the store. She was very nice and I wish I could remember her name. I found a pair of lovely crystal drop earrings that I fell in love with and decided to purchase them on a whim for myself. I also thought they were very reasonably priced. I want to order more earrings for the BM’s! You guys need a website to showcase you’re lovely jewelry and I think the women mentioned that you were trying to get one going. I would love to shop at your store online.

I had some time to kill before my appointment at the Benefit Brow Bar. This place was literally right next door, so I decided to stop in. I’m so glad I did! This is a great little shop with a wonderful selection of jewelry in a variety of price ranges. They also had some cute bags, scarves, and even a few dresses. The sales person there (I don’t think she was the owner) was very helpful, but didn’t hover while I looked around. I ended up selecting a dainty silver necklace with a tiny rose charm for around $ 40. I will definitely shop there again, both for myself and for gifts!

Love and Pieces is a small place, and certainly you will find stores with more extensive collections, but I was impressed by their interesting collection of jewelry, including jewelry from artists that I couldn’t find anywhere else in Chicago (having tried). Michelle, the owner, was very helpful and patient.

I can not put in to words how happy I am with this wonderful little shop. Michelle recognizes me every time I walk in and I’m always warmly greeted, even when they seem super busy. Love & Pieces has quickly become a staple location for me when looking for great pieces that are reasonably priced. I will ALWAYS pay for quality and service, and will ALWAYS support local shop owners. When that is all available in one location I will ALWAYS remain a faithful regular. My lady has always been ecstatic to get gifts from this great little shop. In fact, the little blue label is moving right up there to gifts that come in «the little blue box.» I’ve also recently purchased my niece her first piece of real jewelry, and I couldn’t think of a better piece than the dainty little initial necklace. She’s not quite two yet, but luckily shares the same first initial as her mother (my sister). Needless to say, my sister wears it all the time.
Kudos to everyone at Love & Pieces for maintaining and providing me with a great shopping experience every time I’m there. I could seriously be fine grabbing a couple coffees next door, chatting, and watching my lady try on these great pieces. I’m so glad to have found you all!

I went shopping for christmas for my wife. I went everywhere in bucktown and wicker park, looked at a lot of nice stuff but couldn’t find anything i liked.
I was blown away by the selection here, and very reasonable prices. I bought a group of bracelets made from piano wire, which i thought was cool. wife loved it. I bought a fun gold ring, actually 2 rings meant to be worn on top of each other, wife loved it. Lots of hand designed jewelry, fun chunky shiny jewelry, elegant and more (guy’s description — but seriously, wife loved it)
I met the owner Michelle, awesome. So helpful and funny. I highly recommend!

This is, without a doubt, going to be my new go-​to place for gifts (even if most of the gifts are for myself).
The jewelry is unique, tasteful, and well priced. To top it all off, Michelle, the owner, was incredibly helpful.

favorite new spot for jewelery and purses. The atmosphere is very open and upscale. When I was in there, it was busy with customers but the owner Michelle, did a great job of making sure to greet and help everyone.
I found the CUTEST hoops made of mini pearls — very unique and lots of compliments. Love supporting a woman owned business too.

We really liked this new little jewelry shop — the two owners were extremely helpful and friendly — they even gave my sister a pair of earrings as she was celebrating her 21^st birthday on our trip to Chicago. I found several lovely items and have gotten compliments every time I wear my pieces from Love & Pieces. They also offered to ship items to our home and I signed up for their email list. We were there on a busy afternoon and the staff was still friendly and helpful to all their customers.

This place is great! I live nearby and was looking to get a gift for my mom and Michelle helped me pick something out, and was really friendly throughout it too. The prices were reasonable as well. If you’re reading this Michelle, thanks!

LOOOOVE this new shop on Damen! Stumbled across it while wandering the neighborhood one day, and so happy I did. Cute, cute, CUTE jewelry. Very unique, yet simple twists on your classic jewelry that results in pure fabulousness! Earrings, bracelets, necklaces… they even carry some great bags. Perfect place to check out for all your accessory needs. Plus, the pricing is wonderfully reasonable, so you can get some great pieces without breaking the bank. The staff is wonderfully helpful and so very nice. After seeing a custom necklace I wanted to get as a gift for my sister-​in-​law for her birthday, Michelle (the designer/​owner) was extremely helpful in making it happen with all the right pieces, all while meeting my budget and time restrictions. Thank you, Love & Pieces! I will be back for sure!
