The Spring Fashion issue of Time Out Chicago is packed with the latest fashion trends you'll be seeing on the streets of Chicago this spring. Think clothing that nods to the 1970s, colorful duds and  fringe jewelry. Shopping & Style editor Kevin Aeh stopped by FOX Chicago's Good Day Chicago this morning to show off a few of the must-have items featured in this week's issue, as well as a few more spring favorites. Check out the segment, and the deets and where-to-buy info for everything featured.
