Mark Shale fans now have a new reason to smile. All three Chicagoland stores will showcase the "You Are Here" collection of jewelry, each by a local jewelry designer inspired by her neighborhood: Rebecca Zemans, Dana Reed, Carolyn Greene of Momi and Jules Schwanbeck of Jules.

Rebecca's Ravenswood line will feature tiny sculptures highlighting her background in metalsmithing. Dana's West Loop line will feature minimalist designs inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. Carolyn Greene's Hyde Park line will be have a bit of avant garde flair in the pearl necklace, deconstructed. And Jules' Wicker Park line will be gritty, like the 'hood itself--contrast gemstones with dark chains.
