Love Local: Local Ginger

We all know I can’t get enough of local business, so imagine my delight when I stumbled upon Local Ginger.com, a website that sends out offers once or twice a week with discounts at local companies. The best part about Local Ginger though, is that unlike some email bargain giants Local Ginger really is local and not just a nearby major city- they have deals for your specific ‘hood! I receive emails from Daily Candy (as we all do) but so many of their deals and events are in Chicago, which I live an hour away from, but Local Ginger has been sending me deals for places right around the corner from my house!

Currently they are offering a $30 gift card for $15 to this amazing looking bakery called Desired Confections a company that ships their deliciosities right to my door! Local Ginger has a similar set up at Groupon who require 30 or plus people to sign up to snag their deals but Local Ginger only needs 5, so almost every deal goes through. Last week they offered at $30 for $15 for a pizza place, and before that a $29 massage and a spa down the street from me. Yes you read right $29 for a massage! I know, now you want to know where to sign up, so here are their details:

Simply put in your email, plug in your city and start saving!
(side note, this is also a great way to advertise your business!)

Love Local: V Fish Designs

At the boutique I work at we recently started carrying a new locally designed brand called V-Fish- and we can barely keep it in stock! As soon as we received our first shipment I fell in love- and I knew I had to share it with all of you!

V-Fish was founded by husband and wife Tal and Mandy Moise who wanted to offer chic yet comfortable items for women. With their main location in Lincoln Park, Chicago the duo also sells their collections to 360 boutiques across the nation and you can locate the store nearest you here.

Personally, I love the comfy casual designs and figure flattering styles. Each dress is made of a viscose and spandex blend, so you can wear it all day and feel as if your wearing your favorite tshirt. Another benefit of this material is that you can ball it up and shove it in the bottom of a suitcase or overnight back and slip it on days later without one wrinkle in sight- a must for any jetsetter.

The sleeveless v-neck style is one of my absolute favorites due to its versatility- wear it in the summer as is or throw a sweater and tights with it in the fall and your all set.
