Bar lll Invades Randolph Street Market
One of the biggest vintage shopping events of the year, Randolph Street Market is getting a special surprise this weekend!
Blogger Aimee Song of Song of Style, Macy’s most popular contemporary label, Bar lll, and the country’s top flea markets are coming together to bring Bar lll at the flea. Setting up shop at various vintage and flea markets throughout the country, Bar lll at the flea will be at Randolph Street Market this Saturday and Sunday!
The tour kicked off in NYC with Shenae Grimes, Corey Kennedy, Marissa Montgomery and Hannah Bronfman. Last week the tent touched down in LA with celebrity stylists Tara Swennen and Nicholas Bru. Now it’s time for Chicago!
At each city, the brand will set-up a tent offering attendees clothing (both menswear and womenswear), jewelry and even home goods from the latest Bar lll summer collection. As an added bonus, customers who spend $100 or more will receive a limited-edition designer Bar lll tote.
So come by the Randolph Street Market this Saturday, May 26 (10am to 6pm) and Sunday, May 27 (10am to 5pm) and check it out!

Let’s Get Beachy
You’re invited to a beach party….no bikinis required (unless you’re feeling extra daring of course). On Wednesday, May 16 I’m teaming up with Juicy Couture for a beach weekend-themed party and YOU’RE INVITED!
Not only will all guests receive 20% off (and you’ll want to keep reading for pictures of their sweet new Spring/Summer merchandise) but Rosemary Fanti (who designed my logo) will be in attendance doing live illustrations. Plus there will be an awesome raffle AND a portion of the proceeds will benefit PAWS. So help the animals, amp up your wardrobe for Spring/Summer and come hang out with me at Juicy on Oak Street from 6-8pm Wednesday, May 16.
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the brand new merchandise you’ll see at the event (and can get for 20% off!)
My outfit for the evening is somewhere in there 🙂
LOVE this sweatshirt!
My new parrot ring…how fun is this?
One of my favorite things Juicy just started offering are these DIY necklaces that are not only customizable with various charms but you can also adjust the length of the necklace to be any size (it’s truly genius). Here’s a look at mine…
Can’t wait to see what you do with yours! From now until May 7 when you buy 2 charms you get one free. Perfect for Mother’s Day or a birthday.

So don’t forget to RSVP at rsvp@skirtpr.com and I’ll see you on the 16th!
