Om Meets Retail Sanctuary  

Shoppers beware. You can't help but be drawn into this new breath-of-fresh-air storefront on Halsted Street in Lincoln Park. Once in, you won't know whether to reach for the hip, yoga-inspired athletic apparel or the environmentally-conscious, adorable street wear.  

The employees are knowledgeable, friendly and not at all like your typical sales people, which is why we suppose lululemon athletica has dubbed them “educators” rather than sales associates.

As you browse through the unique, über comfortable and oh-so-affordable pieces, you'll find yourself wanting to know more about this socially conscious retail oasis.

A Vancouver, British Columbia company, lululemon athletica promotes the connection between healthful products and healthy, stress-free lives. With nearly 40 locations in North America and around the world, it is ready to raise the level of health in Chicago with a commitment to the yoga community and an extensive line of technically-advanced performance apparel.  

Commitment to the environment meets personal style in OQOQO (pronounced OhKoKo), lululemon's adorable collection of street wear made from organic and sustainable materials like soy, hemp, bamboo and organic cotton.

Responding to customer requests, lululemon launched this line with the aim of supporting both the environment's health and the textile industry's use of natural fibers. OQOQO is committed to creating smart, wearable clothing that will stand the test of time and win the support of the socially conscious.  

And the pièce de résistance? They offer a variety of hip, fun classes right there in the store, like hip hop dance, cardio striptease, and of course, yoga. You can also sign up to receive product notifications via email, so you'll be the first to know when new products come in, which happens every week!     

Did we mention that every piece is adorable?    

lululemon athletica/OQOQO is located in Lincoln Park:
