Coffee Talk With Jena Gambaccini of Chi City Fashion
3

Hello, party people! Coffee Talk is back this week with one of my first blogger friends..EVER. Meet Jena Gambaccini of Chi City Fashion!

I remember the first event we hosted together – it was for Havaiana’s and Glamour Magazine’s annual pop-up shopping event on North Avenue Beach in Chicago (as seen here –  and yikes my hair). Anywho, here we are three years later – still friends and both still blogging!

I love Jena not only for her killer style but it you’ve been avid reader of her blog, you know the fun humor she incorporates in her writing.  From her favorite wardrobe staples to top Chicago restaurants, get to know Jena below and be sure to follow along with Jena on Instagram. Xo. Lauren

1. Wardrobe Staple: A leather jacket. My favorite is Veda (it’s old and so beat up but I still wear it). I finally got an upgraded last year. It’s from the Row and it’s amazing – very streamlined with a simple gold zipper. However, no one does leather jackets like Balenciaga and Rick Owens.

2. Go-to Nail Polish Color This Season: Currently loving Haze by LVX.

3. Must-Try Brunch Spot in Chicago: The Winchester

4. You Bar Cart Essential: GIN

5. Must-Have Coffee Table Books/Staples: Coffee table books are so personal, I don’t think there’s really a “must have” but just depends what you’re into: fashion, interiors travel, etc. If it strikes your fancy and would make a great addition to your coffee table, I say go for it!

6. Best Piece of Advice You’ve Ever Received: Don’t stress over the little things…Although ironically I still do!

7. Currently Reading: WWD

8. Your Favorite Investment To-Date: A while ago (back in 2010) I purchased a white Alaia dress. It’s very impractical but it’s absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t say it’s my most used investment but it’s definitely my favorite. 🙂

9. Top 3 Chicago Restaurants:…Or 5. Nando Milano (Italian). Spacca Napoli (pizza). Doc B’s (they have everything). Eleven City Diner (comfort food). Arami (Japanese).

10. Motto: We have to wear clothes everyday, so why not have fun with it?

11. If You Could Travel Anywhere In A Moments Notice, Where Would It Be: Australia! It’s my favorite place in the world.

12. On Repeat: This Acne coat. Check it out right this way.
