Don't forget to head to Furla (106 E. Oak St., 312-640-9501, shown above) tonight from 6 to 8 p.m. to check out the brand-new Candy bag (shown below), an insanely perfect purse for the season's warmer, but often rainy, weather. The playful, modern PVC (a shiny rubber) bag comes in super-fun bright colors (including pink, shown right, orange, yellow, green, and blue) and features hand stitching and chrome details. The best part: the Candy bag is a mere $195.

Fall in love with the sweet springtime bag while sipping champagne and noshing on sweet treats from Sarah's Pastries & Candies tonight. The event will also feature giveaways every half hour, including Furla bags, gift cards from Sunda and Rockit, and services from Charles Ifergen. Shoppers will also receive 20 percent off all full-priced Furla merchandise, minus the Candy bags. See you soon!

Agga B. Sale Comes to the CFI Shop Tomorrow

The Chicago Fashion Incubator's pop-up shop is in full swing this week, featuring some of Chicago's most talented designers, including Agga B., a Polish-born designer who's lived in the Windy City for more than five years. Agga is known for her luxurious, perfectly tailored creations, and this week, on Thursday and Friday, you can pick up some pieces for less from her last collection, Fall/Winter's La Dolce Vita - inspired by the strong, sexy women portrayed in Frederico Fellini's films of the 1960s (check out a few pieces above). Agga will also have presale pieces from the Spring collection on hand. "My favorites are button down shirts with triple collars, structured dress coats, and for Spring, one-shoulder dresses $130 in great colors," the designer told me.

The two-day shopping extravaganza - March 24 and 25 from 12 to 7 p.m., at the CFI shop (900 N. Michigan Ave., 5th Fl.) will include marked-down prices on Agga's designs, $50 runway samples, and lots of wine and music. Also, for every purchase you make, you'll receive a discount for future Agga B. items. And the always-chic designer will be on hand to help you shop and keep everyone entertained! The girl is funny!
