This is the girls' trip that keeps on living. We've been texting each other and sharing photos since we returned...even planning a reunion of sorts. It was that good. So why not immortalize it forever? And that's just what I'm gonna do so get ready for a recap of sorts this week and the next but I promise you it won't be boring because these girls are anything but. That is for certain!
Read MoreI am guessing that many of us feel disgruntled this morning. Myself included. We are so exhausted from the election yet we feel like someone robbed us in the middle of the night. How do you discuss with your kiddos? At least that's the question ruminating around my brain this morning. I'm kicking myself for even amping up the mere thought of a female president to them last night. You live and you learn.
Read MoreToday is going to be an interesting day isn't it? November has been a monumental month. First the Cubbies and now the potential of a woman leading our nation. Not sure what's next but I'm exhausted. How about you? Okay, that's an exaggeration. I'm just really exhausted from reading everyone's opinions on politics. All right already!
Let's talk about shopping instead. That's a neutral enough subject. How amazing is that blush coat? That's going on the Santa list for sure! The rest of my choices I observed whilst in NYC because you know you can always count on that city for fashion. And it was indeed juicy. Take a gander...
Read MoreI just want to thank you all for being so patient with my blogging hiatus. I really needed a break. I know life went on for all of you but I am super hard on myself so bear with me. I needed a moment to get inspired and just breathe.
The real reason I was absent was because I went to NYC with four girlfriends to celebrate a big birthday. I don't go on many girls' trips but it was fantastic. I've been such a stress basket case lately and they reminded me (continuously) that I need to stop and just enjoy life. Amazing food, lotsa belly laughs and genuine, authentic girl talk. My cup runneth over. I've waited for girlfriends like this my whole life.
Read MoreWell hello! How are we? It sure feels like November. I was just remarking to my husband how Halloween ends and turkeys and twinkly lights suddenly appear. It's like someone pulls open a magic curtain and here we are. Alarming and exciting all at once if you're a mom. Because you know what that means...gifting season. Ahhhhhh!
Today, I am clearly feeling all black. Like any true Chicagoan...well, actually we are feeling pretty blue these days. Go Cubbies! At any rate...six super chic picks for your shopping pleasure. You're welcome. How amazing is that bag? Gah...Santa are you listening?
Read MoreToday's picks are a bit on the pricier side but they are classics that you will wear over and over again. Trust me. I sincerely hope someone buys these boots because they are insane. And then shoot me a picture when you style them...ha!
Read MoreWhen I think of easy, everyday uniforms...I think of denim and a fitted blazer. Two classics that no woman should be without. On the days I am running like a mad woman, (cough, cough - everyday) I opt for a heel that can take me from day to night. Or, in my case, carpool lines to photo shoots to meetings to happy hour. Might I add that these scalloped beauties definitely fit the bill?
Read MoreLadies! If there's one topic I am passionate about it's SHOES! You've probably noticed a trend with my footwear and it's pretty simple. Once I like something...I wear the hell out of it. So, today, I'm sharing 12 of my must-have kicks that transform just about any outfit and have boat loads of versatility.
Read MoreChicago is experiencing a Fall unlike any other. Perfectly brisk mornings and cool nights. I even heard that we might have some frost in the evening. This is the quintessential Chicago that I know and love. Bring on the leaves!
