Some might say a Chicago winter is a little harsh (okay, a LOT), but we say it also comes with some fabulous perks. Specifically, the exceptional Winter Sale. It's a Chicago reality that spring fashion arrives well before spring. Take advantage of this nature vs. fashion conundrum by checking out these amazing cold-weather steals. Better be quick though, Chicago boutiques are swiftly cleaning house to make room for all the sunnier goods we can't wait to get our hands on (that goes for the sunshine that goes with them, too).
