Book Signing in Chicago at Tory Burch store


I had a great time in Chicago at the book signing party at the new Tory Burch store. Ellie Berlin along with some others from the Tory Burch corporate staff in New York were there...Kelly Ryan O'Brien, Chicago "it" girl and local fashionista, co-hosted the event, and that alone drove dozens of glam Chicago girls to the party (and believe it or not lots of boys showed up too)...Samantha Leas Gaunt, Avery Keller, Kelly Ryan O'Brien and many others were among the chic crowd.
See attached pic of Melanie Charlton Fascitelli and Kelly Ryan O'Brien!
