Friends, how are you? I bopped around a lot last week so I am looking forward to low key days leading up to Labor Day weekend. If you follow me on Instagram, you can always see what I am up to. I have designed it to be a mini blog in real time. Here are a few highlights that I think are worth checking out for yourself!
- The Cowshed Spa: The Soho House’s retreat, located in the West Loop, is open to the public and absolutely amazing. They invited me in to experience a manicure. They substitute tables for giant pillows to place your hands. Heaven. And their products smell delicious. Their tea is exceptionally tasty and I plan on coming back with girlfriends early September! Surprisingly the treatments are very affordable for such a high end spa. Check out The Cow Groom and Body Therapies.
- Blogger Cocktail: Did you know Hallie, editor of Corals + Cognacs, created her own cocktail at 52EIGHTY! It’s called “No Champagne, No Gain” – a sparkling libation infused with pureed watermelon and fresh mint. It is deeeeelish and ends this month.
- Dinner in a Bank Vault: The Bedford has been around for awhile, but I finally experienced it with my sister in law this weekend! This bank turned restaurant is one of the coolest places I have been in awhile. We requested to sit in the vault, that kept its original walls – floor to ceiling safety deposit boxes. Supposedly a few gentlemen have hid engagement rings in the safety deposit boxes and popped the question during dinner. Talk about a surprise. The cocktails and food are incredible too!
