I am seriously jealous of everything going in here.
Power law student by day, incredibly chic blogger by night, you may remember today's
Girl Crush of the Week from her recent guest appearance
here on the blog. That's right, our GCOTW today is the uber-stylish Amelia Eaton who serves as one-half of
The CHICago Life blog.
Both Amelia and her partner Samantha (spoiler alert- she may be next week's GCOTW) began their careers in fashion and now in law school, wanted a place to take a break from the books and talk style. We obviously love them because, well, THERE ARE TWO OF THEM JUST LIKE US, but also because of their impeccable, yet relatable style. Please join us in getting to know the fabulous Amelia Eaton!
Major leopard moment happening here.
- Favorite book? This is tough! I was an English major, and my mother was a librarian. My favorite book of all time? I’ll go with East of Eden.
- Favorite perfume? My daily scent is Bronze from Nanadebary. It’s a French line available at Barney’s. It smells spicy and almost cologne-like. I’ve always loved the juxtaposition of a strong masculine scent on a woman. I also play around with Diptyque’s perfumes when I want to change things up.
- I get my sweat on by? The combination of law school, work, and blogging doesn't leave much time for the gym. I actually cancelled my gym membership yesterday. I told them "I just don't use it enough," and the receptionist responded with "but according to my computer you live so close." Talk about a guilt trip! I try to make myself walk to school and work, and we have two rambunctious labs (Lydia and George) that keep me up and moving. However, when all else fails, I have been known to pop in a Jillian Michael's DVD.
Isn't she totally someone you want to spend the day shopping with? Tune in next week to meet the other half of The CHICago Life, Sam!
