Fashion & Chocolate…What Could be Sweeter?

You Just Shop & Chicago Chocolate Tours kicked off the season with a treat for the senses…the first ever fashion and chocolate tour!

Guests had the opportunity to taste delectable chocolates from Hershey’s, Sara’s Pastries & Candies and Teuscher Chocolates of Switzerland.  While at Hershey’s, we got a behind the scenes at how all those delectable chocolates are made.

To burn off some of those calories and exercise our wallets, we hit a few boutiques along the way.  We were warmly greeted and given great fashion insights from the women at Max Studio (900 N. Michigan Ave.).  We then headed north to Oak Street and stopped by Luca Luca, where we were in fashion heaven with the beautiful colors and fabrics of Spring.

We also uncovered some new Chicago designers along our route. Leslie Pozen of Ellu handbags (www.ellubags.com) showed off her fabulous collection of custom handbags while we nibbled on champagne truffles!  New jewlery designer Tara Woodward displayed her beautiful rings, necklaces and bracelets.

I have to admit that I didn’t leave hungry OR empty handed!

You Just Shop & Chicago Chocolate Tours have more excursions planned so come hungry AND ready to shop!
