quotable: norma lee browning

"chicago may be a man's town, but it's history is emblazoned with the names of women-- women whose spirit or charm or accomplishments lent an air of splendor to the sprawling lustiness of the city."
--norma lee browning,  chicago tribune, 1948 (a world-traveling lady who avoided the kitchen at all costs.)

ANNA HOVET IS KILLIN IT!!!!

one of my favorite girls, miss anna hovet, has been making moves and shaking up the midwest with her sportswear line. had she not been laid off last december, the anna hovet collection might not be here today. luckily, hard work and perseverance has turned anna into a successful business owner at just 24 years old!

her line includes separates such as hoodies, leggings and dresses. all of the styles are unique twists on basics and some pieces are reversible too! she now sells in chicago, milwaukee and grand forks, nd (her hometown). she's planning on going coastal, sales-wise, while remaining a chicago-based designer. she also sells her line on her site: www.annahovet.com check it out!

i'm so proud of her!
