Happy Thursday! Check Out What My Friend Whitney Port is Up To!

by Tina Trevino

Pop Up Shop

Happy “Thursday Is The New Friday” Fashionistas!!

I just wanted to give a quick heads up to any of you living in the Chicago area that good friend and talented designer, Whitney Port, will be hosting her first ever pop up shop in Chi-town at the Thompson Chicago on October 11th thru the 12th.

You may know her from her former roles on “The Hills” and “The City”. She launched her clothing line “Whitney Eve” in 2009 and has been successfully making a go of it!!! It’s a beautiful feminine collection with a bit of an edge to it.

I was introduced to her this past spring and have enjoyed getting to know the “Port Family” who are all in the fashion business too! We are kicking around Fall 2015 concepts and it has been fun to see what inspires Whitney. You can keep up with all her trend inspiration, wedding planning, and travels on Instagram at “whitneyeveport”. And you can check out her clothing line at www.whitneyeve.com.

I had the chance to preview her new Spring 2015 line at the Coterie show in NYC last month and there are plenty of pieces that have my name on them already!! Whitney save me a piece in my size please!

Happy Shopping to All!

Whitney and lil’ sis, Paige–you’ll get to meet the dynamic duo!
