Hey there all you fabulous Fashion Bombers!
If you’re in the Chi Town looking for another great place in the Windy City to spend some cold hard cash, I’d recommend Beta Boutique:

This slice of heaven contains over 1700 square feet of women’s samples and overstock from designers like A.Cheng, Twinkle by Wenlan, Juicy Couture, and Serfontaine, at eye-popping 40-90% off discounted prices! Not only is Beta the ultimate fashion store, it also hosts Chicago’s first and only permanent sample sale. It just doesn’t get any better than that!

*I was looking online, as is my way, and it seems a lot of designers went shopping in African Markets for Spring 2008:
Left to Right: Oscar de La Renta African Print Dress, $2,450; Diane Von Furstenberg Ariki Dress, $1,200; Kevan Hall Dress, price upon request.
But I wonder how much that fabric costs over there…
