These are trying times but I’m seeing signs of spring. It’s lighter outside when I go to my 6am workout classes. Sometimes it feels warm enough in the sun to take off your coat (..but not quite). And sometimes, just sometimes, I hear the birds singing. Yes, my friends, spring is near. It’s so close […]
Quite a week I’ve had! We closed on our house in the suburbs, I took a quick NYC trip and that was only three days of it. I can’t wait to share some of our house with you all. We’re doing some painting before we move in (along with skim coating, which smooths out the […]
If there’s anything you take from my blog, I hope that it’s I appreciate classic style with hints of trend, androgyny and tailored femininity. I’ll never be the girl that can wear something that’s ultra-feminine and cotton candy pink with perfectly styled hair–it’s not me and it will most likely never be me. And if […]
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 […]

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, […]
I’m feeling the polka dots this spring. There’s something so fun and punchy about them that makes me just think warm weather thoughts. 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 […]
