Pipes Burst at Le Dress; Wine is On the House

This intense winter weather has not been kind to Chicago stores. Le Dress is the latest lovely boutique to temporarily shutter due to burst water pipes (at Le Dress, the pipe actually burst in the condo above.) As the owners deal with the damage, they're planning to host a pop-up shop at a friendly neighbor's place.

This Saturday and Sunday, a Le Dress pop-up shop within Trillium will offer free vino and 30 percent discounts off entire purchases.

And hey, let's band together on this: If you know of any other polar-vortex-victimized shops that are temporarily relocating, let us know in the comments below. We'll spread the news.
