Anna Hovet Creates Extraordinary Measures

Dear Fashionistas,

August is sticky in Chicago but alas we do  have summer.  Fashionista Chicago loves the  idea of shorts on a daily basis amongst a slew of days wearing skirts and dresses.  What can go better together than shorts and a skirt?  A skort of course!  Chicago designer Anna Hovet has created a must-have piece to "skirt" (or should I say "skort") around town in.  Made of jersey with an elastic waist, this asymmetrical skort is on our list to buy this week to wear for the remainder of this sauna of a season.  Only $65 my darlings.  Click here to purchase now.
