📍Chicago // Food, wine, travel, general nonsense
Need a recommendation in Chicago for where to take my coat for some small repairs. Ideally somewhere between downtown and Logan Square bc thats my commute. Coat is vintage cashmere with a satin lining. Lining has a few seams coming apart and a button came off during my fall when I injured my foot. 🙏
