Springtime isn’t just about sundresses and bare limbs; actually, where I live, it’s about transitioning into warmer months, but with that transition comes cooler days. We don’t just go from the doldrums of winter to the heat of summer–layers are necessary, especially in the windy city of Chicago. I’m partnering with Intermix and their designer […]
I’m SO glad you all have been both requesting and loving my work wear outfits on the blog, on instagram, and on IG stories. To me, it’s less about looking corporate and more about the fact that I gravitate towards tailored looks. Sure, I love jeans and a t-shirt (…probably with fancy shoes), but I […]

We’ve been in the suburbs for nine months now and in some ways, it’s felt like forever. In other ways, it’s only been a minute and I sometimes want to drive “home” to our condo in Wicker Park when I’m in the city. I wrote this post about why we left the city here, but […]
I’m all about trying to stay fashionable in the winter weather, but if I’m being honest, some days, there’s no use trying. If you’re in the midwest, you know that this week is about to be brutal. Reports are saying it could be the coldest day on record in Chicago–that’s insane! This is not a […]
