Burberry Art of the Trench Chicago

I’m declaring today official Burberry day. And here’s why.

First and foremost it’s the Burberry store opening party tonight, and by the looks of the gorgeous invitation…it’s going to be a good one. To go along with the big event, Burberry launched their Art of the Trench project in Chicago, shot by photographers Amy Creyer and Tim Klein. This campaign was once photographed by Scott Schuman of the Sartorialist, so it’s very exciting to have something like this right here in Chicago. And as a side note, I wanted to thank Burberry for including me in such a great project. You rock…and so do your trenches.

I went through the Art of the Trench photos and I’m so thrilled to see such awesome people who I know and respect here in Chicago. I picked out some of my favorites and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
