Corri McFadden - Style Advice

A night out on the town can consist of something as simple as dinner and drinks with the girls or as elaborate as one of Chicago's incredible black-tie affairs — like the Green Tie Ball coming up this Saturday. Style maven Corri McFadden (of eDrop-Off and VH1's House of Consignment fame) is one of the co-chairs this year, a perfect choice for the annual soirée that generally attracts a younger audience. But no matter what your plans are, sometimes it's nice to get ready from head to toe — kinda like you did for the prom, minus the over-the-top dress, that is.

So, how does one of the most stylish women in Chicago prepare for a night out? She's got it down to a science with these five steps:

2. "Astrowifey for a creative manicure. A basic mani is great, but if you want to personalize your look and stand out from the crowd, go see this expert nail artist."

3."Uber for your ride there. So simple and so essential. Just download the app, and when you want a car (taxi, SUV, or town car), Uber will send a car to you."

4."Leah Chavie for a spray tan. If you're looking to get a little color, do it safely! A spray tan is the way to go. Not only do you get great color, it's also quick and hassle free."

5. "Neapolitan for the perfect dress. The dress is crucial. From McQueen to Dior, this well-curated boutique has something to offer for everyone.
