J Crew dress, unknown/friend’s necklace (yours, Maggie?), RayBan sunglasses, Dolce Vita sandals, c/o Foley + Corinna bag Although our wedding was in Mexico last Friday, Eric and I headed to the Chicago courthouse to legally wed yesterday once and for all. Post-ceremony (which lasted about 3 minutes), we had a nice little day together eating […]
I’ve been going through pictures that I want to print and frame at our new apartment, which really isn’t so new these days (we’ve been there four months). I came across these pictures from our recent trip to Europe and they just made me smile–probably because of the bizarre expressions on our faces. There’s Eric, […]
This is what a desperate last attempt of summer looks like. Tank tops + sandals. Actually, I’m lying…these photos are from Rome and it was quite toasty for our time there. As much as I love fall (ex: I bought $40 worth of socks today), I’m always sad to see summer leave. Do I really […]
I’ve never claimed to be athletic; in fact, some (naysayers) may describe me as downright uncoordinated.

Yes, Rome may be dirty, loud, and busy but it’s a also a huge city that has housed inhabitants for thousands of years. While a thoroughly modern […]

I saw this silky, striped skirt at H&M last week and it was love at first sight. Not only was it the right length, style, and price ($30), but I can see myself wearing it a variety of ways. Shown below is the most obvious and classic way, but that was my mood. No frills […]
True to form, I paired a simple, white dress, found deep in my closet, with an army green jacket that I forgot I even owned. There’s something alluring about the juxtaposition of a prim and proper white dress topped with a stiff, canvas military jacket. So different, yet so complementary–sort of like macaroni & cheese […]
