I’m such a rebel wearing white after Labor Day. But come on, you know I don’t believe in that made up rule, right? I read once that a women’s magazine in the 1950s declared that rule (and it stuck) but rules are meant for breaking. Check out some of Labor Day sales that I found: […]
I have a confession: I always swore I wouldn’t be the mom who started dressing down just because I had kids. And at first I didn’t–but I had a 9-5 job in fashion that required some dressing up, meeting with clients or brands and setting the tone for the style in the office. Now, I […]
Belt bag, fanny pack, hip pouch – what do you call it? Basically, this baby is a hands-free bag and with the 90s revival happening as of late, they’ve been all the rage. I had one growing up (who didn’t) and definitely didn’t think I’d be rocking a nylon one again as an adult. The […]
Happy Friday, everyone! This week kicked my butt but I’m feeling invigorated and excited for my little man, Harry, to start pre-k after the holiday.

Well, hey there! I’m back after a little hiatus (and it was lovely being able to unplug). August is a bittersweet month for me as I get excited for fall but hate saying goodbye to summer. If winter could just be milder, Chicago would be the best city in the world! But I digress–here’s what’s […]
I had some hesitation about going back into denim miniskirt territory but ultimately took the plunge. How is it different than the jean shorts I wear all summer, really? What ultimately held me back was the underlying association I have with denim mini skirts: high school (and I probably wore them in college, too). I […]
I liked this red maxi dress wayyyy more than I thought I would. The deep V is so flattering (I wear a stick-on bra with it but you could totally wear a lacy bralette that could peek out and look like it should) and the color is just perfection. I have a wedding to attend […]
