For Insiders Only - "Dish On Fashion"




Dear Fashionistas,
I am obsessed with amazing food and just as amazing fashion. So my friend Katie Schuppler from KS Consulting and I decided to start a small dinner party called "Dish on Fashion".  We selected ten talented bloggers and media magnets in Chicago to join us for an intimate affair at IPO. As you can imagine, we did "dish on fashion" and enjoyed incredible food created specifically for us.  
Each place-setting was awarded a gift bag with special products and certificates including; Fashionista Chicago t-shirts, $20 gift certificate from George the Salon, Bliss Body Butter from Hotel W Bliss Spa, and 50% off cards for Katie Schuppler Style Consulting, but the icing on the cake was the donation from a boutique called Felice Dee

Felice Dee, a mom and daughter duo who travels around the world collecting one-of-a-kind pieces hosted a trunk show in Chicago two weeks ago and asked if Fashionista Chicago would cover the event. Unfortunately FC was out of town that date but I told Amanda Muchnick at Felicee Dee, we were hosting a dinner with ten other media writers and if she wanted to donate a few pieces for the writers, we could "dish" on the pieces in conversation.  

Well, we couldn't be happier!  Felice Dee donated ten unique beautifully gift wrapped items. We didn't know what we were getting.  Such a surprise to find a collection of some-kind of wonderful! Everyone was just astonished.  Some of the wonder pieces are shown above.
