Luxury Garage Sale's 1st Warehouse Sale

Our Night at the Red Door Spa



We knew we were in for a treat when we started planning our private member's only event at the iconic Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa. This slightly secretive, hidden oasis is one of Chicago's gems. Tucked away in the Palmolive Building just off of Michigan Ave, it's a quiet tranquil respite on a cold winter's day. So naturally, we threw on some red lipstick and hoofed it to what I now call every Chicago socialite's best kept secret. Just walk down Michigan Ave, take a right at Louis Vuitton. Once you reach the door, take the unmarked lift upstairs and get ready to unwind.



Through the Red Door, what pleasures await.... We can testify that their manicures are flawless and the brow wax is somehow much less stressful than choosing an eye cream. Continue reading to see inside the spa and get my rundown on the night's festivities...

Happy Birthday Kate!




Here at the Chicago Fashion Foundation, we know that fashion just wouldn't be the same without Kate the Great. Kate Moss, that is! At only 5'6", she paved the way for untraditional looking models...making it okay to be a little short, a little less leggy, and a bit more unconventional. We think Kate is a pioneer! Not only is she one of the last of the Super SUPERMODELS, but she's a savvy businesswoman. Here's looking at you Kate, Happy 40th birthday....here's to 60 fabulous more years!

A New Year, A New Blog



Dear Chicago Fashion Insiders,

We can't thank you enough for all of your support throughout the years! It's 2014, a new year...and we're kicking it off with a new blog! This year we have heaps of exciting things going on, and we have a feeling this is going to be a show-stopping year for the Chicago fashion industry. Tons of boutique openings, star-studded parties and events, and the coolest runway shows this side of New York Fashion Week are around the bend.

Our newest member of the Board, Mischaela Elkins, has been tasked with the tough (but glamorous) job of bringing you all of the hottest and most newsworthy fashion content fit to print. As a former model and chronic sample sale stalker, she has the inside look on what's happening on the runway and off it....behind the sales and in Chicago's most fashionable streets and avenues.

Bookmark us and connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ to stay up to speed on what's going on and what's being worn in the Windy City!
