Net-a-Porter + Refinery29 Chicago Event

Last week I attended quite the stylish soiree at Sable with Refinery29 and Net-a-Porter. It happened to be the last nice day we’d have for a while. So being around great people with delicious food with some decent January Chicago weather…let’s just say it was a pretty good time.

Yesterday Refinery29 posted some pics from the party and they even featured my custom PS1 I wore that night.

New Online Shop: Rad And Refined

I always love discovering new shops, especially online. For those of us who don’t always have time to shop brick-and-mortar (which I do try my best to make my rounds at least once a month), it’s so convenient to find one-stop shops, especially online. And thankfully…there’s Rad and Refined.

Photobucket
Coolest part about this site (besides the sick merchandise of course)? It’s founded by 24-year-old Chicago native, Jacqueline Rezak. It all started with her blog that consists of images she found to be rad and refined. And as of December 2011 (yes, just last month), this turned into a full blown store appropriately named Rad and Refined.

The name says it all…it’s a curated selection of edgy (rad) and classic (refined) fashion, all in one place. Carrying an array of designers, both Chicago and LA-based, this shop caters to a wide audience. Shop designers like Wildfox Couture, Dana Rebecca, and WGACA Vintage. And if you happen to be in the LA area, you can make an appointment to try on the clothes yourself.
