Happy official summer, ladies! It really does feel like summer in Chicago and I'm not complaining AT ALL. We're perfectly happy to dine on popsicles and have a constant laundry line of swimsuits drying. It's what we live for all winter long!

I take blogging pretty seriously. While it's not my FT job, it's a side project that I've sustained over the last 6.5 years. My blog has evolved just as my writing and photography skills. If the saying goes, "practice makes perfect" then I've been trying to perfect my craft for some time. And while its not perfect by any stretch, I have a lot of sweat equity into 101 things i love. On this alone, I get very passionate about my projects whether they are compensated or not. And yes, I do occasionally receive compensation, there are MANY a time in which I choose to partner with a brand or small business simply because I believe in what they're doing or because I genuinely believe they have a fabulous product.

Last summer I was on the hunt for a great banana leaf/palm print dress. That didn't happen...most likely because I was looking too hard. You know how that goes. This year I was obsessed with lace up sandals until I stumbled upon this...this dress which made all my tropical dress dreams come true!
It's always when you're not looking, right?
