Oprah may soon be leaving Chicago but she's just now opening a new outlet for her products at Water Tower Place. Considered a "microsalon," the shop, Oprah's second in the city, will open tomorrow on the second floor of the Water Tower Place mall. According to the Tribune, the new shop will, "carry select Oprah merchandise, including clothing, memorabilia and collectibles as well as items from the "O" signature baby collection. It will also offer an assortment of South African crafts and jewelry." Of course, if you want Oprah-related products, you don't have to go to the store, you can just log on right here, if that's your thing. more ›
