Active Endeavors--Why We Still Love This Store

After discovering Active Endeavors for the first time so many moons ago, we still love this online boutique. Why? Because it is one of the few shops online with an eclectic mix of mainstream (think C&C California, Ella Moss) and smaller labels (Grey Ant, Mint, Spring & Clifton, among others). Based out of Chicago, Active Endeavors has four brick-and-mortar locations in addition to its online boutique, and one kids' shop. Besides having some of the best customer service out there, the folks at Active Endeavors are generous with discount codes (which you can look for on www.reesycakes.com), which means you can snag an Andrea Brueckner bag for less than many other retailers. We also love Mint's wrap collar coat, and Emerge's line of comfortable and inspirational lounge wear. -All photos courtesy of activeendeavors.com.
