Paint the Town

October 19, 2017

Red isn’t just a color, it’s a state of mind. Caitlin and Danielle received an invite to a dinner at The W hotel on Lake Shore Drive from a very special woman, Jen Worman, of Red Soles and Red Wine. Jen is a fashionista and one of the most creative dolls we know with a one-of-a-kind clothing line, T & J Designs.

A themed party on an unseasonably warm Chicago night calls for Couture. Mira Couture, to be exact.  This luxurious salon is known for their  bridal selection, but they also carry an extensive collection of evening wear – from ornately beaded gowns, to simple soft-flowing silk georgette styles, and everything in-between. Flirty and fun cocktail dresses, gorgeous Chanel inspired suits, and day-to-night ensembles fill the showroom and our hearts with endless possibilities.

Caitlin wore a dream dress with full skirt and  gorgeous beaded corset, designed by Mira Couture’s owner and head designer, Julie Mersine Romeli. Danielle wore a stunning Chanel-inspired skirt, matching blazer and dazzling necklace.

The food, fun and laughter was shared while admiring the newly renovated restaurant and lounge area. One word C + D would use to describe the estimated 38 million dollar remodel is GLAMOROUS. This spot is a must see, must dine and must have a drink or two!

Painting the town red requires a Doll squad up for laughs, adventures and plenty of red wine! Check them out below and follow them on Instagram.

Jen Worman AKA @RedSolesandRedWine was our hostess with the mostess. We adore this powerhouse Doll. She’s a businesswoman, mom, fashionista, and a great friend. Follow her for must-have OOTDs – and then shop them from @tandjdesigns!

If you remember poppin’ bottles with us, then you know our honorary Doll, Jules Chez! She is the sweetest small town girl turned Chicago fashionista, yogi and rocker wife. Follow @julzchez on Instagram for her luxe style inspiration.

Cher, Madonna, and @Shirley don’t require a last name to stand out from the crowd. Shirley is a friendly face in the Insta-sphere. In fact, this beauty and brain has a background in tech and recently launched the MUSES APP to help anyone with an online audience collaborate with others to make that audience bigger and better-  because friends who grow together, stay together.

Rema is Jen’s right-hand woman and Chicago trendsetter rocking T & J Designs around town. Follow her Instagram @Reeemxo to shop, style and re-style all your favorite pieces.

That’s why her @bigblondehair is so big – it’s full of style secrets from your favorite celebrities.  @Laurensebastianofficial is a blast to catch up with around town and her style is seamless whether she’s rocking a Chanel bag or $8 aviators from Amazon.

About

Once upon a time... there were two best friends that lived in a Dollhouse. That's where the story began. While the pages of this digital storybook keep turning, one thing remains the same. Caitlin and Dani are by each other's side through the ups, downs and all the realness in between.
