I spotted Sandi and her magnificent crocodile Hermès Birkin entering the Hermès boutique on Rush Street with her husband Bob. After all, where else would she be? Sandi is also wearing Hermès Kelly leather gloves, Hermès bracelets, and Jimmy Choo for Ugg studded boots. She is perfectly dressed for a leisurely walk through the Gold Coast during the harsh Midwestern winter!
Sandi and Bob were in town visiting from Texas. They are a lovely pair and were so generous and patient to let me photograph them. Let’s hope they got home safely before the blizzard struck!


Sonia is carrying a magenta Balenciaga city handbag with giant silver hardware. An incredibly bold designer handbag like this tends to totally dominate the holder’s appearance. Sonia expertly drew upon neutral textures with her gray fur vest, black leather leggings, and Louis Vuitton monogrammed scarf with muted tones of blue-gray and cream to complete her designer ensemble.
