City Stories: Walking the Chicago Auto Show barefoot

20 02 2010

Fisker. BMW. Audi. Toyota.

Thanks to a good friend, I was able to attend the charity night event of the Auto Show and see all of these beautiful cars up close and personal. We got dolled up in our finest heels and dresses, put on suitable makeup and walked the floor. It’s always fun to hitch a ride in a car worth a half a million dollars while you’re sipping on a glass of white wine and nibbling on chocolate dessert provided by a swanky Chicago restaurant.

Of course, walking the Auto Show in heels is a bit difficult. By the end of the night, many a woman in her couture dress was also barefoot, with Jimmy Choos dangling in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.

I most enjoyed the Fisker. I want to buy one of these when I grow up. I can’t remember the exact price tag, but it was something to the tune of $250,000. But hey, that’s cheaper than the Maybach!

Here are a few pix.
