I picked up this dress in December because dresses are my jam. I'm sure you're shocked at this new revelation. It was reasonably priced back then - much to my chagrin, I returned two items yesterday @ Topshop and this dress is now on super sale to the tune of a whopping $40. Darn it. This always happens to me. Swear. <today is your lucky day because I found the exact one online and linked it below>
Read MoreIn an attempt to eat "healthier" this past Super Bowl Sunday, I found a recipe in, none other, but Blissful Basil's newest cookbook for a fresh take on sliders. The recipe does not exist online but I found a similar version to share with you today.
Read MoreThis is the time of year where I completely struggle with fashion. I am not invigorated to wear brights and I am totally tired of wearing denim. All things considered, Chicago has seen a great winter...we've suffered much more in the past. Still...those grey days can really get a girl down and I've found myself resorting to black....a lot!
Read MoreHi loves! Happy Friday!
Keepin' it short and sweet with my annual survey today. I'd love to hear your feedback. This blog has changed quite a bit in the last two years and I'd like to keep you around a little bit longer. (wink, wink). Please, share your thoughts and you can remain totally anonymous if you like, too.

My cami is faux leather and could definitely be worn alone, however; I thought it would be fun to add an extra layer of warmth rather than put it on reserve for warmer temps. My boots are from Zara. I reach for them constantly and I love the way they look with tights and dresses, too.
Read MoreIf you follow my 101 things i love Facebook page, you know my affinity for a good daily deal. I share one every evening. Or at least I try! (if you're not, like my page to see items ranging from great sweaters to heels) Well today is a special exception because while we might be closing the books on January...we're still in the throws of winter.
Read MoreI'm testing a new format, friends and I hope you'll opine on whether or not you like it. I can take it either way!
Maintaining my blog has become a lotta work on top of a very full time job and more importantly, my time with my family.
Read MoreHey hey...Happy Friday! The above quote pretty much sums up my week. I've been sniffling and walking around with Vitamin C tablets but I am determined to make a come back. I will not let this cold beat me. In fact, I am dying for a cocktail but I also can't taste anything. In some ways, it's been a good detox week. Funny how that works.
Read MoreApologies for the radio silence. I have been bitten by the winter flu bug and I'm still not 100%. But there is no rest for the weary...or moms...as you know. Really, that applies to all parents. But that's a different story for a different day. So! Today's post is not related to fashion but rather, remedies!
