January always proves to be a hard month for me in terms of fashion. Chicago weather is less than favorable and I am generally in a state of depression after exiting December which is the most colorful month of the year. I find myself gravitating towards blacks and neutrals. Which, doesn't necessarily have to be bad, does it?
Read MoreWe're entering the season of love. Naturally I am gravitating towards winter maxi dresses and anything faux fur. Tis the season!
Read MoreIt's good to be back. Sometimes pauses are needed and it wasn't because December wasn't stylish...quite the opposite! It really came down to a need to disconnect and schedules. But I am back with a sweet style post that plays upon a more muted palette. A little change up from the red and sequin favorites that come only with December.
Read MoreSanta is always kind to me. In particular, this past Christmas, his shopping was on point! More of that to come in my first style post...which I am trying to wrangle up as every photographer wipes the cob webs away. Anyhoo, even though I am not in the market to be shopping at the moment...I have been saving some fabulous finds for YOU!
Read MoreI can't imagine a winter that didn't involve heavy coats and multiple layers. It's all I've ever known. And if you talk to any good Midwesterner, they'll be extraordinarily candid about how important a good coat can be. Take it from someone who is looking forward to 40 degree temps today. And yes, you read that correctly. We were in the negatives just 48 hours ago, my friends.
Read MoreCapes definitely give you superhero status. I should know, this T&J Designs version gives me wings! It's also a sure fire way to dress up even the most basic of basics because let's face it...winter weather and a lack of fashion inspiration have officially arrived in Chicago. <cue the eye roll>
Read MoreThe holidays can be so fancy that often, by Friday, I crave denim and a paired down version of my traditional uniform. Sometimes I have so many fancy separates that it's difficult for me to compose a basic outfit. Which is downright silly given that I have a gazillion basics just sitting in my closet! Ahhhh the life of a blogger!
Read MoreLet's talk shoes. Booties specifically. As a Chicago gal, winter footwear adjusts drastically. Open toe shoes are officially a thing of the past as we hit single digits this weekend. Brrrr is right!
Let's stop and pause for a second. How much do you spend on boots? $50? $150? More? No judgement here but what if I told you that affordable + fashionable belong in the same sentence and it's possible to find GREAT boots for under $50? BAM! It's true. Meet ShoeDazzle...better yet...meet my cute, new booties shown above!
Read MoreHi! Missed you guys! I am anything but put together this holiday season. Case and point: it took me three days to get this post together. Yikes! I'm drowning in work and holiday events + shopping but so are all of you, right? Right! Which means only one thing - it's time for a GNO!
Today I'm sharing holiday party looks with none other than my bestie, Jen of Red Soles and Red Wine! Girls who glam together, stay together and this post is courtesy of boohoo; my favorite on-trend, online destination.
