A Taste of Chicago...(comedy)

You will see the strangest things walking down any street, but this one takes the cake for 2007. Chicago is a very community oriented city, which explains this scenario. The Magic Mart, one of the staple corner stores of Hyde Park, recently closed after more than 15 years...well actually their license was revoked. Anyhow, I am walking by and overhear a couple expressing their regrets for a "shooting" that took place in front of the store. They were observing a memorial and came to that conclusion. So, I look closer to find that the memorial/candlelight vigil is in the memory of the closed Magic Mart!! HILARIOUS!! I swear this would only happen in Chicago...Please let me know if I'm wrong.

i want these...

so hott!

Heroine-Chic...

This weekend the ladies of Heroine-Chic hosted a swank affair to showcase their collection of belts and bags. Colleen and Anna are two very creative individuals that have made a name for themselves in Chicago and beyond with their hand made belt buckles and clutches. The intimate showcase had a Cirque Du Soleil theme, that featured stilt walkers and contortionists . The music was awesome, provided by the great DJ Sonny Daze accompanied by a trumpeter. You can find more about Heroine-Chic here, and expect to find some their accessories at Solemates Chicago.
