I was lucky enough to be able to stop into b on the River a couple weekends ago and check it out. It's a fresh, upscale, sophisticated yet funky little store that has everything from soaps to bedding to kitchen accessories. There is also a bakery and cafe attached that serves beautiful and tasty treats like paninis and croissants.
I was in Chicago for the week and decided to make the trip to Elkhart to see our newest retail customer. From downtown Chicago it was only about a 2-hour trip (the weather was gross and rainy but the traffic was pretty good). If you're ever in the area I strongly encourage you to visit b on the River. It's a fresh breath of air in an adorable downtown area in northern Indiana. I'd never been to Indiana before but had heard (from my judgmental husband) that it wasn't anything to get excited about. However, downtown Elkhart was quite charming and b on the River adds much charm to the area. Stop in to b on the River, check out the selection on AnnaKate Soaps (oh, and all the other cool stuff, too), have a bite to eat and enjoy the views of the river. I think you'll like it. :)
