CHIC Events: The February Show

Some of the best and most interesting art can be found in New York City, and the February Show is no exception. Curated by JunLee and Heather Hart, the show which runs February 17th through June 30th, highlights the diverse perspectives behind Black History Month. We personally love the fact that the February Show gives a more thorough insight into black culture, which is so often overlooked.

"Our thoughts on the show touched upon the idea that this national celebration is an impetus for demanding a more thorough knowledge of our national history, and upon the absurdity that our nation assigns the recognition of Black American Culture to the shortest month of the year.", the curators state.

A reception will be held on February 17th from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm at The Chocolate Factory on 636 11th Avenue, New York City where the collection will also be on display. For more information call 212-237-5975.

CHIC Events: Queen of e.vil Opening

Last week Queen of e.vil debuted it's collection at NoHo's Bond 666 store. The atmosphere in the store was certainly quirky, trendy and in your face, but in a really fun way. What we really loved about the collection is even through rocker aesthetic, pieces were still feminine, which makes for a really cool visual combination. To learn more go to www.queenofevil.com.

What We Did Last Week: Journelle Soho Store Opening

Last Thursday, Journelle celebrated the opening of their third store in Soho.

During the event we got a chance to chat with owner Claire Chambers who told us that she believes in presenting a "tastefully-curated (rather than exhaustive selection of lingerie" and she certainly does just that. With a great selection that ranges from Nina Ricci to Hanky Panky, it's clear that pieces have been carefully and thoughtfully selected.

We'll definitely be visiting again to pick up some fab pieces! Journelle Soho is located on 125 Mercer Street. If you don't live in NYC or Miami (in which they have another location) don't fret. You can also shop online at http://www.journelle.com/.
