Four suburban Chicago girl friends got together for a splendid night on the town – movie star style. The north suburban Chicago radio station, 102.3 XLC held a promotion called the “Sex and the City - Suburban Party” where one lucky listener would win a Sex and the City inspired evening full of friendship, fun and flavor.
Jamie of Grayslake was the lucky winner out of several hundred applicants. Jamie got to choose three of her close friends for a chauffeur-driven evening of pampering, cocktails and a screening of the Sex and the City movie.
The evening began with Jamie and her three friends (Courtney, Annmarie & Megan) being picked-up by Hawthorne Limousine at their work at Walgreens corporate in Deerfield.

The ladies were driven by limo to Mario Tricoci Hair Salon & Day Spa in Libertyville and were greeted by the inviting staff who served them sparkling lemonade and cookies. Soon thereafter, the ladies were being pampered with manicures, make-up applications and hairstyles.
Once they were finished at the salon, the limo drove the ladies to Wildfire Restaurant in Lincolnshire to enjoy appetizers and cocktails.
Afterwards they were taken to Regal Cinemas Lincolnshire 20 & IMAX to attend a viewing of Sex and the City the movie.
With popcorn and fountain drinks in-hand, the ladies sat down to share in the ups and downs of the lives of Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Charlotte York and Miranda Hobbes.
Tears and laughter filled the movie theatre and once the show ended the ladies were driven back home by the limo.
As Jamie, Courtney, Annmarie and Megan reminisce about the the evening, they agree that every girl needs a group of friends to get through life. As Megan states, “Sex and the City embodies the importance of girl friends, leaving me thankful for having such great friends to remember the day with.” Jamie says “the bond between a girl and her friends is quite an amazing thing. In good times and bad, there are core friends that are always there for each other. I have been given the chance to strengthen the bond between my friends and myself with this night on the town.”
