And so it begins...school buses, back packs, new teachers and rainy mornings. I quite love the start of a new school year but not for the obvious reasons. I'm a huge fan of a new season. That's why we stay in the Midwest. No one can argue with a Chicago Fall because it's just about the perfect temp and the most stunning colors you've ever experienced.

Better late than never! How did Wednesday turn into such a crazy day? Oh wait...I know! Back-to-back phone calls since 8am would have something to do with it I presume. Ahhhhhhh!
It’s hard to believe that we’re nearly halfway through the summer, but it's time to talk back-to-school. Olivia and I had a great mommy/daughter date at Woodfield Mall this past weekend to start prepping for KINDERGARTEN. I know...and I am very close to tears so do not mess with this momma.

I gravitate towards color on a daily basis. I often look at women who wear all black and envy their chic fashion taste. A wardrobe of neutrals can never steer you wrong.

It's hard to let go of summer fashion when it's just so good this time of year. The sales are coming hard and strong and it's tempting to scoop up every last bold dress or romper. Then again, at $30 a pop...why not?
