Able Shoppe in Elgin brings modern context to vintage fashion
Liv Melchers, 26, opened Able Shoppe in downtown Elgin a few weeks ago. The vintage clothing and home decor store is a reflection of her focus on sustainability and ethical fashion. While the store is full of vintage and antique items, it looks and feels more like a modern boutique. Rick West photos | Staff Photographer
