I have been obsessed with the Christopher Kane aqua clutch since I saw his Fall 2011 collection. It’s like a lava lamp meets childhood toy…which obviously makes for the coolest accessory ever.
So when I found out RSVP Gallery was getting these bags, I of course checked the site every day and tweeted them like crazy. Thankfully my hard work paid off…
A warm welcome to the latest edition to Chi City Closet…the Christopher Kane Aqua Clutch!

Chicago Street Style has been capturing the most fashionable people on the streets of Chicago wearing the new Oliver Peoples ♥ Chicago limited edition sunglasses. I LOVE the photos she’s taken of the sunglasses all over the city! Especially this one…
And guess who’s made it onto the blog?
How amazing are these sunglasses? So awesome that Oliver Peoples made a special pair just for this awesome city 🙂

After attending the Dana Rebecca trunk show last weekend, I got to do a little interview with them with regards to what I thought about the new collection (hint: it’s awesome) and just a few fun facts about myself.
I don’t want to give too much away so be sure to check out the interview and let me know what you think!
Yesterday morning I attended the press breakfast for the Oliver Peoples store opening. They celebrated their grand opening of their new store on Rush Street yesterday and I am beyond thrilled to have such a reputable brand as part of the shopping scene in Chicago.
Oliver Peoples’ designs are based on vintage American-made eyewear. Their retro yet classic styles are the core of their brand and it’s what keeps people coming back; they know they’ll get quality glasses that will never go out of style.
It was an honor to meet founder and creative director Larry Leight at the press breakfast. He was such a fun, laid-back guy who is beyond passionate for what he does. In the past he has collaborated on the launch of Prada, Miu Miu and Jil Sander’s eyewear brands (just to name a few). He was also one of the first eyewear designers to ever be elected othe CFDA.
Browsing the new collection of Oliver Peoples eyewear in the stunning dining room of Ria at the Elysian felt far from work…but I had to get it done so I can share this amazing experience with you 🙂 Larry Leight describes his approach to the collection as “Simplistic, sartorial sexiness. None of the styles are overdone-they are timeless and classic-yet they embody the sensuality of the glamorous Hollywood figures they were inspired by.” I couldn’t have said it better myself…
Oh, and they have produced a limited edition run (50 to be exact) of these amazing rosegold aviators that are exclusive to Chicago!
Although a California-based company, I am more than happy to welcome Oliver Peoples to the lovely city of Chicago. I am looking forward to having more major brands like Oliver Peoples make their way to Chicago and become a part of our ever-growing fashion scene.
Be sure to visit the new Oliver Peoples store at 941 Rush Street.
