3 concerts, 2 nights, 1 pair of sneaks

I’m a firm believer that the sneaker wedge is the perfect concert-going shoe. It’s comfortable and gives you a few inches of lift to see above the people standing in front of you. All you short girls know what I’m talking about. and VIVA CHICAGO! a wonderland of concerts and live music!
