You should know by now that I am obsessed with multicolored hair. Ombre, bleached, streaked – you name it – if there’s color, I’m photographing you. So when I spotted Tiani’s bright red braid and asymmetric cut, that was it. Done. Hairstyles can make or break a street style photo, and Tiani’s ultra-stylish cut clearly identifies her as someone who understands the forces of fashion.

The Style Tribe

Three Tribe Members at Borris Powell’s Show: Nicole, Corri, and Jena

The Style Tribe is Chicago’s newest favorite personal style blog. The website is a hybrid between a street style and a personal style blog and features one of the five women each day of the week; my good friend and ChiCityFashion blogger Jena Gambaccini, local entrepreneur Corri McFadden, Nicole, Erin, and Bridget. I love the concept for including a group of women. In my opinion, personal style blogs can get a little stale because it’s always the same person. So including a group of fashionable women, each of whom posts once a week, avoids that blogging pitfall.

I mentioned The Style Tribe earlier this week in my post about the Gilt City Chicago warehouse sale, but these ladies looked so fashionable at Borris Powell’s show tonight that I had to give them their own post!

Event: Gilt City Chicago Warehouse Sale

This past Saturday morning before attending the Erin Gordon trunk show I actually work up early for the 10 a.m. VIP shopping slot at the Gilt City Chicago warehouse sale. I also got my good friend Jena Gambaccini a last minute VIP shopping slot and she brought her boss and friend Corri McFadden, the ultra-chic owner of Shop E-Drop Off.

Shoppers

The Gilt City Chicago warehouse sale sold out quickly and shoppers with tickets lined up around the block for a chance to score mad deals on designer goods. Everyone I saw left with massive shopping bags and I saw several groups of women squealing with glee over the discounts they received on expensive brands like Frye, Marc Jacobs, and Missoni.

Even the boys came out to shop!

I landed a Surface to Air studded sweater, a Marc Jacobs red metallic plaid blazer, and a Marc Jacobs gold dress in the same pattern.

Corri and Jena recently launched a new blog called “The Style Tribe” where five women document their personal styles one day at a time. It’s a really great concept and is basically a hybrid personal style blog with a street-style twist. It’s my new favorite Chicago fashion blog!
