Sometimes, you just need a meatball. I got home from work at 7PM, realized I had no food, ran to the store and came back with the essentials–and still no idea what I was going to cook. I scrolled through blogs to procrastinate and Liz’s meatball recipe caught my eye. I knew right then and […]
Joie top (on sale!), Current/Elliot jeans (c/o W Concept), Zara heels (similar), Karen Walker sunglasses, Chloe bag (old but love this one) Fall came early in Chicago this weekend. What I had hoped would be just another sunny, summer weekend, turned out to be cold and blustery. It dawned on me that fall is just around the corner, so I […]
image / skirt / blouse / pumps / sunglasses / bag I’ve got denim on the brain this week, apparently. I never thought I would be saying this in my post-college life, but here goes: I want a denim skirt. In my defense, I’m not talking about the Abercrombie mini skirt that barely covered my backside and (most likely) had a white ruffle that lined […]
H&M denim dress (similar), J Crew pumps (love this similar pair), Celine bag, Karen Walker sunglasses (c/o W Concept) Is this denim dress really just an oversized shirt? Or maybe it’s a coverup. Either way, I dared to wear it to the office (I work at a fashion start-up, so it was acceptable). Since it’s […]
Nothing beats a summer weekend–especially in Chicago, when the city truly comes alive. I had a great weekend at Pitchfork Music Festival (thanks, H&M!), grabbing some drinks at the best outdoor patio in the city (it’s called the “Secret Garden), and just enjoying myself. A few of these photos were posted to instagram, so feel […]
J Crew linen tank, Zara maxi skirt (old/rolled up to midi-length), Prada wedges, Clare Viver clutch (c/o W Concept), Gap sunglasses I wear this tank at least once a week (last seen here). Why? Well, for starters it’s linen, so in this heat, I stay comfortable and cool. Also, it has bananas on it and […]
towel / umbrella / garden statue / pillow / letterpress cards / framed print / salt + pepper shakers As you can tell from my instagram, I love my dog Jerome. He’s my little man (Eric and I have affectionately dubbed him “biggie boy” in what sounds like a caveman dialect) and he makes me laugh every single day. We’ve had […]
French Connection dress (similar), ShoeMint heels (c/o), Rebecca Minkoff bag I originally planned on buying this dress (holding out for it to go on sale, of course) but when I saw this French Connection version for half the price at Nordstrom, I quickly snatched it up. This isn’t one of those dresses that I’ll wear often, […]
