TALKING SHOP: When you're in the market for something fancy

Adresse, in Rittenhouse Square, is high-end boutique featuring designers like Valentino, Araks, Jenni Kayne and Ferragamo. For most, it's too pricey for an every-day type of shopping excursion, but it's an ideal hidden gem when your on the lookout for that stand-alone, special-event piece.

TALKING SHOP: When you're in the market for something fancy

CP's Kelsey McGlynn embarks on a hood-specific summertime boutique crawl.

 

Adresse, 1706 Locust St., 215-985-3161

When shopping in Rittenhouse, it's easy to overlook Adresse tucked away on Locust between 17th and 18th streets. This high-end boutique features designers such as Valentino, Araks, Jenni Kayne and Ferragamo and a very exclusive atmosphere. The clothing is perfect for both casual and fancy events, and the pieces will last you a long time, which helps soften the blow of the expensive price tags. I was most impressed by the elegant shoe collection. Lining the walls in the backroom, there was a heel for every occasion. The store itself is well-organized, which makes shopping stress-free. For most, it's too pricey for an every-day type of shopping excursion, but it's an ideal hidden gem when your on the lookout for that stand-alone, special-event piece.
