Wow, the Levi’s 501 jeans really got their sea legs this week. Yes, I did wear them a lot. I’m the kind of person that when I buy something new and love it–I wear it to death. They can be dressed up, dressed down, dressed…normally. Denim really is the work house of my wardrobe. So […]
To be honest, I wasn’t sure how I felt about the mini bag. Cute, sure, but how practical would it be? Then I carried it around and you know, it felt pretty liberating. I didn’t have to sift through a bunch of junk in my bag (I’m working on that) and it was a nice […]
This week’s real outfit recap is concise but I have lots of link love for you below. Hope you all had a great week (all I really accomplished this week was trimming Teddy’s bangs). Link love: Loved Jess Kirby’s piece on why she stopped going to fashion week. I actually haven’t been in years–2013, […]
Here’s another rendition of ‘you ask, I answer.’ A reader asked if I would round up some ‘chic flats’ that could be worn casually or to work. The only parameter was that she didn’t want them to be frumpy and I assure you, none of these are. I actually own four of the recommendedpairs and […]

Speaking of warm weather, it’s not happening for us here in Chicago. It’s cold out there (just look at the background of my photos–not a green leaf in sight) and this may […]
It wasn’t a great week for outfits; it was cold, snowy and there’s a snowstorm happening outside the window as we speak. Once you’re over winter, it can be really hard to feel inspired by your closet. And winter isn’t even closet to being over–we have a solid two months left. So, I busted out […]
I remember when I decided that I needed Theory leather leggings; it was early fall 2012. I hemmed and hawed for what seems like months over whether or not to buy them. The pair I wanted was expensive (but par for the course in terms of leather pants) and I wondered how much I’d actually […]
We made it! Happy Friday, everyone. I was able to snap a bunch of outfits this week (doesn’t always get to happen). A highlight of the week was attending the Create & Cultivate x Clinique luncheon–it’s always great to see my fellow Chicago bloggers as I never get to attend events. Also, if you saw […]
