What would our Roadshow be without some gifting? And we think we have something pretty special for this one.

We are proud to partner with Essential Bodywear in our stops in Minneapolis, Chicago and St. Louis to bring you something different.

EBW isn’t just about a great product. They are building a community of women all across the country that use their own EBW business to lift women up and help them feel good.

With Project Uplift EBW has paired up with I Support the Girls, an organization that works to provide women and girls in need with necessities like bras and feminine hygiene products. By encouraging donation of gently used bras and new, individually wrapped hygiene products.

Essential Bodywear committed to continuing to build on this inclusive foundation, by not manipulating anyone’s body in marketing photos. In 2018, making a commitment to include women in marketing campaigns that more accurately reflected who they serve, they stopped searching for media-defined ‘ideal’ bodies and started searching for change-makers both within the Fit Stylists family and from general public. Brave woman applied to model their bras and underwear, be photographed and help in their mission. The energy at photo shoots is powerful, inspiring and life-changing. With the latest catalog breaking sales records, speaking loudly in favor of the change.

We have three gifts in three cities, as follows:

Join us in Minneapolis at the Marquette Hotel on Wednesday, July 26th from 8:00 am – 10:00 am for our Buyer’s Breakfast and receive the Convertible Dress which offers at least six different ways to style and wear this dress for a range of occasions. Crafted with luxurious and super smooth Modal fabric, this dress features a double layer of fabric for versatile styling as well as pill-resistance.

Join us in Chicago at The Pendry on Thursday, July 27th from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm and receive EBW’s buttery soft leggings with a comfortable mid-waist rise and wide waistband for extra support and control.

Join us in St. Louis at Olive + Oak in Webster Groves on Friday, July 28th from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm and receive a comfy and versatile half zip crop pullover is buttery soft with just the right amount of stretch.

We look forward to seeing you on the Midwest Roadshow!

Posted on | by Joe Mo | Leave a Comment on Midwest Roadshow Incentive Blitz Stop #2 – The Pendry Chicago

What’s up, Chicago! It is our inaugural tour of the Midwest and our second stop on the 2023 Midwest Roadshow Incentive Blitz brings us to…. The Pendry Chicago!

Set within the iconic 1929 Art Deco Carbide & Carbon Building in Chicago’s Loop neighborhood, Pendry Chicago is a contemporary hotel that is the right balance of luxury and comfort and inspired gathering spaces throughout that embody the spirit of Chicago. Its prime location sets the very best stage for discovering the city and its brightest attractions with ease and convenience.

The tower’s iconic art deco-styling has made it an inseparable part of the city’s skyline. According to an urban myth of the era, the Burnham Brothers designed the building to resemble a dark green champagne bottle topped by a gold foil. Who wouldn’t be drawn to a magnificent bottle of champagne?

Dining options at The Pendry include Venteux, “windy” in French as a nod to the Windy City, where a distinct Parisian-inspired setting sets the tone for this French brasserie, café and oyster and champagne bar with a modern take on French cuisine.

Bar Pendry is a Pendry signature, their version of the classic hotel bar, tailored to Chicago’s distinct sense of style in a rich, moody space with a central fireplace making it cozy for guests to enjoy libations all day into the evening.

And finally, Château Carbide, located on the 24th floor, is where an al fresco rooftop plays host to outstanding skyline views of Chicago in a one-of-a-kind airy atmosphere.

New South Roadshow Stop #4 – 21c Museum Hotel, Louisville

Posted on | by Joe Mo | Leave a Comment on New South Roadshow Stop #4 – 21c Museum Hotel, Louisville

Our final stop on our 2023 New South Roadshow brings us to the 21c Museum Hotel in Louisville. Its our first time ever bringing our signature showcase to Derby City and we wanted to go big at this funky, artsy, museum hotel. Its definitely a vibe.

Nestled in downtown Louisville on historic West Main Street, along Museum Row, 21c Museum Hotel Louisville is a multi-venue contemporary art museum, an award-winning 91-room boutique hotel, and home to acclaimed Proof on Main restaurant. The Red Penguin is one constant at 21c Louisville among the ever changing art exhibit at the hotel and museum.

“The public really chose the penguins,” says Wilson. “They were part of our opening exhibition in Louisville and people couldn’t help but interact with them. They would move them around, take photos with them, take them to dinner and to their rooms. They have really become an icon, and emblematic of our mission to make thought-provoking contemporary art more accessible to the public.”

Over a decade and many hotels later, each 21c has its own flock of Penguins — each in a color that embodies the singular identity of their city. The Penguins greet visitors throughout the hotel – in the lobby, elevators, restaurant, guest rooms, and often, where you least expect them.

Come see the Red Penguins who started it all for yourself and join us on our first ever stop in Louisville on Thursday, March 23 from 10 am – 12 pm for our Luxury Destination Showcase in the gallery followed by a Luncheon at Proof on Main at 21c Hotel. We look forward to welcoming you to Louisville and the final stop on the 2023 New South Roadshow!

The 21C Museum Hotel is indeed that, an art museum, and as such, contains some art which might not be to everyone’s taste. If you think this may be an issue for you, please check their latest exhibit by clicking here.

On the hotel’s third floor, Thistle & Rye is hip a whiskey bar featuring shareable, globally-inspired small plates while you sip cocktails on the patio overlooking downtown Nashville.

Like any private club, Tesserae comes with its own unique rules of engagement. Curious? You can read more on those club rules here.
