Free, fashionable holiday shopping events

This Wednesday, we’ve got Raymi Production’s free¬†Shop IN Chicago from 5-9pm at the Drake Hotel. Dior will offer complimentary sampling from their professional make-up artists for all shoppers in addition to Aniko Spa and Salon offering complimentary manicures. Keep in mind they don’t allow jeans!

This Thursday will be a great time to check out many vendors for your holiday shopping, at Fashion Focus Chicago’s Glitter. It’s at the Chicago Cultural Center this Thursday, Dec. 3 from 11am-8pm. Apparently there are cocktails in the evening from 5-8pm, but I’m assuming cash bar.

Then on Saturday, Fashion Rocks Chicago & See More Shopping are having a free Fashion and Shopping Extravaganza! Saturday, Dec. 5, from 11am-5pm at the Creative Lounge Chicago, 1564 N. Damen, 3rd floor. Free snacks, a goodie bag and makeovers! You do need to RSVP, so check the link.

Then on Thursday, December 12, The Lux Life is putting on dance presentations, chef tastings and, of course, fashion, all for free. Oh, did I mention hors d‚Äôoeuvres¬†and cockatails are also free?? You’ll also need to RSVP for this ‘Toast to the Good Life” from 2-7pm.
