The Winter Wren grand opening: Live jazz, with a three-piece band set the soundtrack for the evening as guests sipped on complimentary Cathead Vodka cocktails and wine while enjoying fresh sushi and bites by Genki Noodles and Sushi. In addition to offering a 20% discount throughout the evening, Winter Wren also did special Free People giveaways throughout the evening. And, to help celebrate the opening of its sister store, 310 Rosemont (offering high-end men's and women's apparel located just steps away) treated shoppers and partygoers to Wild Heaven Craft Beers and delicious fare from Ocean Catering Company.

The energy

at Winter Wren last night was as

fresh

as the clothes themselves. It was an amazingly fun evening...

Take a look!

Meeting the man of the hour, Winter Wren owner,

Winter Hodges

was also the highlight of the evening for me.

WOW

, doesn't even begin to describe this guy. Winter is the most charismatic person I may have ever met. We spoke and carried on for some time. His spirit, energy and demeanor is so pure, so authentic. Yes, I'm been captivated by Winter and I can't wait to return to Winter Wren and visit 310 Rosemont as well, just so we can chat some more. And shop of course! YOU must stop by both locations.
