Oh, winter! With its dreary days
And its boring, gluttonous ways,
Has got you stuck and wasting time
With nothing left to do but rhyme.

Need a longer-lasting fix?
Introducing Intermix.
In NYC it’s the rage,
A shopper’s mecca, center stage. 

Heading west to this here place,
In two locales they’ll set up space.
Lincoln Park and Gold Coast, too,
For their Chicagoland debut. 

Stella, Diane, Chloé, Theory
Woo you when your day is dreary.
Handbags, denim, baubles, kicks,
Chockful of designer picks. 

And to make the good news sweeter
For the DailyCandy reader,
From 6 to 9 on this fine eve,
Their midweek fete will bring reprieve,
To shoppers with the winter blues.
(They now can nibble, buy, and booze). 

Rhymes can surely pass the time,
But shopping truly is sublime.
Intermix, it’s plain to see,
Is nothing short of poetry.

Intermix, 40 East Delaware Place, at Rush Street (312-640-2922 or intermixonline.com). Second location opening in May. To attend tonight’s party, bring a copy of this e-mail.
