Summer in Chicago at Street Fests

The Roscoe Burger Fest was not only a very tasty and delicious festival, with a variety of different burgers, it was a great opportunity to have stopped by and grab an eco-friendly designer handbag. Teaming up with Recycle Me, we had a great time talking to interested passer-bys about our eco-friendly and fair trade products we are proud to sell at five ACCESSORIES. We learned that our product make people feel good, because not only are they purchasing a cute, and trendy handbag or necklace, they are helping people oversees and possibly providing opportunities that people in Cambodia or Bali thought unimaginable.

Just a reminder that we will be at Uncommon Ground Farmers Market on Devon and Glenwood every Friday from 4p.m.-8p.m. If you were unable to visit us at the other festivals, this is a great way opportunity to stop by!

CRAVE Chicago

Monday, November 16th 2009, five ACCESSORIES and our Interns had the opportunity to go to the CRAVE Chicago 'book launch' party, at The Arthur Murray Dance Studio.It was a great opportunity to mingle and network with other Chicagoan business owners, such as The Meatloaf Bakery, The Damian Group, Honey Cafe, Dry Soda, Solixir, Candyality, Busy Beaver Button Company, Chocolate Gourmet and NAHA! The night consisted of meringue dance lessons, good music, great conversation, and delicious samples! Best treat of the night had to be the gummy bears from Candyality! They definitely kept us going back for more!

Visit the Crave Chicago website to see what they're all about. You can pick up a copy of the book at the five ACCESSORIES retail location at 5247 N Clark St, Chicago, IL. Check out five ACCESSORIES on page 90!
