Are you in hot pursuit of new fall clothes? Catch 'em at Pivot Boutique, where eco-friendly staples like silky bamboo sweaters and sleek organic tops and trenches are more hip than hippie. Our picks from two fave lineups: Larsen Gray's chic, flowy dresses (see photo) made from organic cottons and sustainable silks and Mayu's one-size-fits-all, fair-trade alpaca shawls from one of Chicago's Finest eco-designers, Kate Robertson. Next week, party with Pivot for its one-year anniversary with trunk shows by Frei Designs and new vegan footwear Olsen Haus. It'd be a crime to miss it.

Wanna Try: 

Pivot, 1101 W. Fulton Market b/t Aberdeen and Carpenter Sts. (312-243-4754). Pivot's anniversary party; Sep. 5, 5 - 9 p.m. Larsen reversible jacket dress, $325.

Cocktail Fact

In one of the longest car chases ever, German bank robbers were pursued for 620 miles, through several countries, before Ukrainian police caught them.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 Chicago Biters choose a bamboo-fabric dress instead of one made with synthetic fabric, we'll keep the weight of 66 cops in nonbiodegradable fibers outta production.
