Venues

If you have no Gatsby party to attend, then Chicago's own historic speakeasies or 20's-inspired lounges could serve as a classy replacement:
 
The Library  Wish you could visit Gatsby's library, the one that patrons of his parties sometimes wandered into?  The Library by Gilt Bar might just make you feel like you stepped into the 1920's.
Untitled  This is a restaurant and lounge that is fit for any Gatsby fan.  You can choose to simply grab a drink here, or you could even book your own private party.
Green Mill Cocktail Lounge  Want to see one of Chicago's original speakeasies?  Try the Green Mill Cocktail Lounge.  Al Capone himself often sipped bootlegged liquor here.
The Green Door Tavern  This old Chicago tavern is another mainstay from the 20's.  You can rent the speakeasy downstairs.



 And Remember...

Planning a party is complicated, but TheStylisted is here to help when it comes to events big and small!  At-home hair and makeup means a little more time for yourself and a little less stress.  Now, go put on some big band music, pop some champagne, and don't forget to schedule your appointment for an an at-home, luxurious, primping ritual that Daisy would surely approve of!
