Soooo Polyvore has inspired me to try new things with fashion. Therefore, I will be creating a fashion look of the day for my fellow Chicagoan fashion lovers and stylemakers.  This look will be inspired by a trend, the weather, a celebrity, a theme, or just a new look to try out.  I would love your feedback on these looks.

Keep your eyes peeled!

New Show Store Opening

By sociofashi · February 12, 2009 · 0 Comments · 45 Views

Ladies, I introduce to you....Kathryn Kerrigan.  She is a relatively new shoe designer here in Chicago. Kathryn's shoes are all handmade in Spain and Italy of the finest materials and best of all they are available in US size 6-15. (So if you have friends with large feet, there's hope for them to find stylish shoes in their size.)

They are opening a boutique at 741 N. Milwaukee Ave, Libertyville, IL. The grand opening event will be March 13 and 14th from 9-5. The boutique is just steps away from the Metra station, so even though they are not in Chicago yet, those who want to be stylish and wear a larger shoe size can hop the train at Union Station and be there in 50 minutes!

Kerrigan's plan is to open a second location in Chicago this August and of course all of their beautiful shoes, sandals and boots can be purchased on line. And get this...they also have handbags, accessories and clothes!
