Baby, You're a Star

I am often starstruck working for Michigan Avenue. It’s hard not to be while in the company of A-list celebrities like Robert Redford, Danica Patrick, Jennifer Hudson or Topher Grace, whom I ran into at a recent movie screening.

But one of the things I really enjoy about this magazine is that we get to contribute to so many other peoples’ brushes with fame—whether they’re attending one of our events at a hot new venue like Public House on State Street or being treated like a star when they’re shot for a style story.

Even if you miss one of our events, you can always check them out after the fact (or if you were there, see if you made the cut) thanks to the great filming by OnAirr Productions. They shoot, edit and produce MATV segments—find them all at michiganavemag.com. You’ll also catch our TV news clips and behind-the-scenes footage of our photo shoots.

You should always be ready for your close-up, and I have a great store to suggest for guys who want to look their best: Morris & Sons at 557 West Polk St. It has a choice selection of designers like Ike Behar, Hugo Boss, Brioni, Donald J Pliner and Kiton (check out my picks at right). Ask for owner Gary Rosenbaum and tell him I sent you.

So step into our spotlight and plan to join us at our upcoming events like NightCap and Beautifall. After all, no one should miss his or her chance to shine, and with Michigan Avenue you never will.
