Whoa #chiberia, whoa.

Dear Lord...did the weather people have it all wrong! New York had nothing on the Midwest. We got dumped on yesterday! Get 16 inches of snow and let me know how it goes all right friends?

My husband spent about 20 minutes suiting everyone up yesterday only for the girls to penguin walk back in 10 minutes later asking for hot cocoa. Snotty noses and pink cheeks for the win!

Blushing.

Every once in a while my sartorial taste takes a complete 360 and I go from ripped jeans to ladylike ensembles. It's an all or nothing game, really. 

Today's outfit sort of came together unintentionally. It started with the pink skirt. What goes with a pink skirt...florals obviously?! And the rest is history.

t+j Designs Launch!

It's a special thing when mompreneurs band together and support each other. Today I'm sharing a new launch for t+j Designs that I am excited to support. I've spent a good portion of my shopping money on Tiffany and Jen's site for two reasons: 1. I love their jewelry and most recently, clothing! and 2. I believe in supporting small/local businesses. (Lisa owns her own business, too: BISTM! Check it out if you want to make some room in your closet!)

Street style.

Part deux of my street style series. (in case you missed last week's...click here) There's something very city about cobblestone. Wouldn't you agree? Although, not ideal for high heels...this we know. 

I loved shooting with Jennifer Claire Photography because despite the cold, she was open to shooting anywhere. Dark alley? Sure. In front of a garage? Why not? Stand on a garbage can? Definitely!

I eat glitter for breakfast.

You guys knew this right? I mean...obviously. (inspired by this sweatshirt)

I dunno. The title seemed apropos considering my Sunday sequins. If you guys haven't paused and hit up H&M's mega sale, I strongly suggest you run don't walk because the prices are ridic. Hence, I fell in love with this sequin crop. (and this one, too)

All black.

One of my favorite gifts this Christmas was this faux jacket from my husband. It's the perfect amount of attitude when you're lacking outfit inspiration or it's just freezing. Readers...meet Chicago. Chicago...meet the readers.

I bought this vintage dress years ago from a boutique that is sadly no longer in business. I often think about donating it but then I hesitate. For once, hesitation worked in my favor. This coat literally breathed new life into it. See...I'm really trying to reduce, reuse, recycle.

Queen of Hearts

Officially...this will be my Valentine's outfit. Typically not a floral person of sorts; I simply adore the large scale flowers on this dress. And the voluminous skirt = major fun!

The only challenge I had was finding a topcoat that wouldn't complete with the structure of the dress. Leopard saves the day...again!
