Randolph Market Festival

This past Saturday I went to the Randolph Market Festival season opener.  Comfort was the key since I ended up walking and shopping for 2.5 hours.


Bar III Sheer Kimono Caftan - Macy's
CK Leggings - Macy's
T-shirt - Target
Sandals - Target
Jewelry Set - The Style Manor


It was a gorgeous sunny day in the West Loop neighborhood.  Outdoors were vintage and handmade goods as far as the eye could see. 








These pieces below were made of recycled inner tube rubber, how clever and resourceful.  Check out the shop at:  Very Moderne.


I really should have purchased this train case, just beautiful. 

Vintage gals.






Then to cool off and for more shopping, I moved inside to the air conditioned warehouse for even more clothes, sunglasses, coats, hats, bags, furniture, you name it. 





You definitely have to go with a list of what you are searching for because you will go broke picking random things that are rare and just beautiful.  I was focused on clothing of course, so I purchased a skirt and a dress I can't wait to show you guys.

Here are some of the vendors I visited:

The Randolph Market Festival is held once a month throughout the summer on a Saturday and Sunday until September.  Check out the website for specific dates, times, address and vendor information.
