Drag queens, club kids, and pretty much anyone seeking a cool costume regularly scour the racks of Beatnix (3400 N. Halsted St., 773-281-6933), a retro-fabulous boutique along bustling gay Halsted Street that's packed with flashy attire, wigs, hats, make-up, and assorted glam-wear. Also check out Batteries Not Included, Tulip, and GayMart for fun gifts and novelties.
