Isn’t it funny that some things you just despise growing up, you now actually enjoy? For me, this includes tomatoes (then I discovered Caprese salads), sneakers (which I only started liking recently), shopping (that all changed when Limited Too came into my life) and now…pearls.
But these are no longer your country club / grandma’s hand-me-down kind of pearls…
With my venture to the land down under happening later today (weather depending, thanks Chicago) this seemed like the perfect opportunity to gush over some Australian labels you need to know. Not only are these brands creating cool clothes, but they’re actually making things that are reasonably priced. Even better…you don’t necessarily need to travel over 9,000 miles to get them.
Besides being able to subscribe to Chi City Careers (finally!) there’s another small change recently made to ChiCityFashion. Do you know what it is? Come on. You got this. No? Nothing. Okay, fine.
May I introduce to you…
This isn’t Peter Pilotto’s first rodeo on CCF. He happens to be one of my favorite British fashion designers, plus his designs have been seen quite a few times in my WWW posts. But something pretty major happened for the duo behind those killer prints (yes there is a second half to Peter Pilotto — Christopher de Vos). Care to find out what that something is?
Have you ever experienced frustration with handbag shopping? As in you find something under $100 but it falls apart almost instantly and everything else is $1,500+? It seems there’s not much of a “middle class” (or shall we say middle clasp? BOOM!) in the world of handbags, but there is if you really look for it.
Affordable designer handbags do exist. Don’t believe me?
