E! correspondent and fashion expert Kelly Osbourne helped launched the annual Magnificent Mile Shopping Festival Aug. 24. Among other things, she hosted an outdoor fashion show in Pioneer Court, 401 N. Michigan Ave.
At a breakfast gathering for journalists in Cafe Nordstrom, Osbourne talked about everything from her purple hair (styled by Judd Minter, who was also present) to her upcoming fashion line. When Windy City Times asked Osbourne what three essentials every person should have, she said, "a great Oxford shirt, a blazer and a great pair of suit pants—and that goes for men and women."
The annual Magnificent Mile Shopping Festival, presented by MasterCard, runs through Sept. 6.
The Magnificent Mile invites guests to enjoy a full calendar of festivities, including celebrity appearances, fashion shows, hotel packages, culinary events, exclusive experiences and offers for MasterCard cardholders, music concerts, a sweepstakes and more. Major events include RS featuring Ross Lynch live in concert (Sept. 3) and Fashion's Night Out on the Magnificent Mile (Sept. 6).
