St. Barts Here I Come...

I'm heading to St. Barts on Sunday and looking forward to a nice long week of sun, sand, and relaxation! I just bought the Pink Polkadot "Leopard" top to take with me. (Thanks Jennifer for sending it so quickly!) The top is a perfect cover-up over my black bikini and is long enough to wear as a minidress with my black wedge sandals.

If I have any great pics, I'll be sure to post them when I get back! Until next week.....

The Diane Medak "Black Ruffle Halter"is perfect if you are looking for comfort and style! I wore it tonight to the J. LaMore party and just loved it. If you do choose this top, think about getting the lowbeams. With such a low back, it's hard to find a bra that works with this halter. Luckily It's a loose enough fit to wear nothing underneath and have it still look great!

Max- that dress is amazing! At least one other person bought it tonight, and I bet you both will look gorgeous in it!

Lure Dress

Jennifer - Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

I received the Lure "Claudette Dress" and absolutely love it. I'll post some pics after the party. Thank you for the recommendation.

So many restaurants!

I see there have already been a few suggestions for a great Chicago restaurant, but I had to add another! My favorite restaurant of all time is Carmines. It has a variety of food on the menu, with mostly seafood, steaks, and pastas. A little on the pricey side, but it's worth it! Click the picture to view more pics and some reviews.

P.S. The calamari is to die for!

Chicago Restaurant!

Hi Amanda: Another great restaurant is Mia Francesca's. Jim and I love it and we always go there if we're not going to Le Colonial. Hip, trendy, and it's where all the beautiful people go. It's kinda loud and bustling but you will love it. Good drinks and a good wine list. Great Italian cuisne. I give it four forks! It's a cab ride but the cabbie will know it.

Chicago Restaurants...

Amanda K: I haven't been to Chicago for a while, so I can't comment firsthand, but I am hoping to get back soon to try at least one of two restaurants that have gotten some really great press... Alinea and Moto. The cuisine at both is "contemporary" or "new American." They're both described as avant-garde and hyper-modern. Both have gotten rave reviews from food critics and other top chefs. They're on the pricier side but could be a fun splurge if you're looking for something really different (and if you're willing to eat Chicago hot dogs and pizza for the rest of your trip). :) Check out the websites for more info as well as pics of the restaurants and food. (The pictures of the food at Alinea are worth checking out... Click on "Gallery" to view.) ...Have fun!

Chicago Restaurant!

Hi Amanda: What a great way to spend a weekend! In Chicago Christmas shopping. I'll send you my list. . . I do have a great restaurant, like my favorite; Le Colonial. It's at 937 N. Rush Street and easy to get to from where you're staying. It's French-Vietnamese and the best food ever! Great atmosphere and easy pricing too! ($20-$25 entre') I'm not sure on the wine!
