Is anyone going to events in their city? What are you looking forward to?
Chicago has a huge list of shops that are participating, some doing fashion shows, sales, and of course some food and lots of drinks. I have too many places on my list, and no time to hit them all. I'm still thinking about an outfit, and wishing it weren't going to still be so hot next week.
I went last year and had a blast. I honestly didn't even care about the stores or promotions- I went with a bunch of girlfriends and we just went store to store drinking champagne. We did catch a couple celebrity sightings at stores that were doing promotions but those stores were so crowded it really wasn't worth it.
Honestly, we spent the most time in Nespresso (coffee/chocolate shop). They had tons of seating, lots of champagne and waiters going around with all kinds of chocolate samples. And they had bathrooms, which were basically impossible to find anywhere else.
I had asked earlier if anyone was going in NYC. The one friend that I know would love to go is already going, but double-booked doing makeup that night.

I wish there was a good one around here. It's a total joke around these parts even in the larger cities. I have thought about travelling for a good one. This year it wasn't meant to be.
I'll be in NYC for Fashion week so I'm hoping to check out a few stores. Haven't looked at the list yet, but last year was so much fun! Now I just need to convince someone to go with me.
