“When I inquired about particular sweater’s material, he told me quite condescendingly that the materials were always noted on the tag in the bottom of garment. Thanks a$$hole, appreciate the lessen in how to buy clothes.” ––I go out often, trying new places, and am very discerning and opinionated!

“A mix of old meets new, Sugarcube® is a dream for fashionistas and frugal shoppers alike, male or female. Every item is hand selected by the dedicated staff, and the owners are passionate about their customers just as they are about their business. Anyone searching for a unique piece that no one else will have should consider this store”

“Get thee to Sugarcube® if you’re in town! I was browsing their goods for over 2 hours. Their vintage hits the sweet spot: unique, great condition, priced to move. I settled on an unusual plaid poncho featuring a slight collar – literally wore it out of the store…”

“Opened in 2004, Sugarcube® is located in the fashionable and historic Old City area of Philadelphia and the store’s aesthetic does a good job of merging modern trends with a vintage feel. The floor and ceiling in the shop are made of great looking hardwood and the store’s name is scrawled in huge letters across the exposed brick wall. The lamps, artwork and displays all serve to accentuate this new-meets-old feel and the end result is a beautiful looking retail space.
On the racks sits a blend of contemporary fashion and vintage clothing which is something we rarely encounter. Trend-wise, Sugarcube is on point. Among our favorite brands in stock are- Pendleton, A.P.C., Levi’s XX, Rogues Gallery and Dunderdon. The vintage selection is not to be ignored either, we really liked the jewelry on display…”

Worn in Love

“Many boutiques line the historic streets of Old City, but Sugarcube® has truly found a way to stand out. Upon entering you’re most likely to be in awe of the warm and inviting vibes that stem directly from the layout and decor.
There are a great variety of designers carried in Sugarcube, but I have been particularly excited to see APC, Steven Alan, Dunderdon and Pendleton items. Each of these brands has an aesthetic similar to that of Sugarcube® as a whole. They create versatile items that can be worn in a variety of ways that accentuate a man or woman’s personal style…”
worn in love was created to feature great fashion on the Philadelphia landscape– whether it be shops, designers, or notable street fashion. there is a wealth of inspiration and interpretation that can be derived from editorials and fashion shows, translated into a daily outfit, and influence one’s style.

“Best. Store. Ever.
Every time I walk in here I fall in love. It’s as if someone snuck inside my imagination and pulled out all the clothes of my dreams, then put them inside one perfectly decorated store for me to stroll through and shop in. Their dresses are perfection, and I want. I want.”

“This fiercely fashionable little boutique is the reason I have recently started a vintage purse collection. In addition to a beautiful assortment of colorful, modern, creative “dream closet” apparel, their collection of vintage handbags is out of this world. And if you’re on a budget, they run a little cheaper than the other items in the store. The woman who works there is so lovely and friendly. I believe that fashion should be fun before anything else and this boutique really embodies that spirit.”

“I stopped into Sugarcube® the first day they opened at the new location on N. 3rd Street and absolutely fell in love with the place. With a wide range of both new and vintage clothing, shoes, and accessories, this boutique caters to the higher-end shopper with a unique eye.”
