GOLD COAST - It's about time that Escada made the move out of Plaza Escada on Michigan Ave and into one of the more exclusive storefronts of Oak Street. The new Escada location was previously inhabited by YSL who suddenly closed shop January, 23rd 2010. The store has been vacant ever since. And now after over a year of riding an emotional roller coaster we have an opening date set for May 1. The perfect time for shopping Jonathan Saunders for Escada Sport. [Racked Inbox]

ANDERSONVILLE - The neighborhood of the future is possibly getting one more much needed fashion forward women's boutique. We're told it's called Milk and is expected to inhabit the space at 5137 N Clark, just south of Foster on April 1 and be open by May 1. [Racked Inbox]
