Fashion. For me, this isn’t necessarily a serious topic. I love to have FUN with it, and try to never take myself or my style too seriously. With my blog and work, I get to play dress up every day- some days I will be feeling romantically Parisian, others biker girl edgy. Because of this view, I am a huge fan of playCHIC, an innovative runway show that combines fierce fashion with top toys during Chicago Toy & Game Week. I am pleased to be a part of the playCHIC Fashion Ambassador Panel with some of my fave blogger gal pals!

PlayChic is a completely unique format as fashion shows go. Incredibly talented and well-known fashion designers are paired with toy brands to create fabulously fun and inventive looks. Last year, my favorite design was by Peach Carr- I loved her on Project Runway and was thrilled to met her in person!
playCHIC partners designers with toy and game companies to create a look that is playful, representative of the toy/game, and of course fashionable! Peach Carr and Michelle Tan
will be displaying their looks, and a behind the scenes video of these
particular designers at their studio will be shown. If you like Project Runway, you will LOVE playCHIC!
What I Wore…
Last year, I dressed up as Barbie. Oh yes I did! I had a ruffled cap sleeve tie neck blouse printed with pink bows, and a girlie pink trumpet skirt. Here I am with Betsey and Kristen of The Little Style File, and the inventor of the iconic Rainbow Loom, Cheong Choon Ng and his wife Fen Chan! What will I wear this year…hmmm…still thinking but I guarantee it will be playfully chic!
