Okay, so when I read that my favorite style guru Daisy Llewellyn mentioned that custom designed pieces were all the rage, I knew I wanted a custom made dress. I fell in love with Calvin Klein’s minim...
Above is a picture of my newest office shoes that I bought at Violette (hopefully more to share about that store later). I was hesitant to buy them at first because they’re not your typical o...
When I first began knitting, I declared to everyone that I knew that I’d make a scarf for them for the holidays. But you know what? Not one person has received a scarf in the four years that ...
Things that I’ve been into lately: -Fall leaves -Listening to the new Feist album and the latest Little Dragon album on my walks to work. -At-home facials (minus extractions). - This Pride and ...
This is the little box that was waiting for me last Friday when I visited my parent’s house (I always have my orders sent to them since they’re home). I decided to subscribe to Birchbox ...
I’m still around. After a summer of doing almost nothing on a daily basis, this fall has been a whirlwind of non-stop activity. The good news is that I’ve found a new job working full t...
Fall is definitely my favorite season. I’m anxiously waiting for the colorful leaves to drop, the crisp weather and a chance to throw on the jacket. I haven’t done much shopping (unem...
Image from Chance.com Lately I have been obsessed with finding the perfect boatneck striped tee for fall. While some may consider the striped boatneck more of a summer staple, I’ve always felt...
Another year, another birthday has passed. Although I tell all of my friends and family that I ‘m no longer big on birthdays (true), I can truly say that I am happy to have made it to see anot...
Can you believe that we’re already nearing the end of August already? I know we have a little less than two weeks left, but I feel like fall is pushing its way in very quickly. I’ve en...
This week’s Friend Friday, brought to us by Modly Chic, discusses copying in the fashion industry, knockoffs and designers “borrowing” ideas from one another. Quite the meaty top...
My recently found glasses A couple of weeks ago, I was forced (well, almost) to stop wearing my contacts after a nasty eye infection from…well, wearing my contact lenses too frequently. I gue...
It’s finally beginning to feel like the first signs of fall are underway. The weather in Chicago is not smoldering hot, the final “final” sale racks at retailers are almost empty ...
Holly Golightly: Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany’s. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very ba...
(image source) 1. Do you think fashion blogs are often just conspicuous consumption? Are some? I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I didn’t think that some fashion blogs displayed gre...
(Image via We Heart It) As my birthday nears, I keep reflecting on my previous post about the tasks/goals I set for myself at age 26. If I wanted to be pessimistic, I’d say that I did pretty ...
I have decided to participate in the weekly Friend Friday Q&A sessions, provided by ModlyChic. I thought the topics were stimulating and opened up wonderful dialogue. This week’s topic de...
One of the best (and worst when it comes to the pocket book) attributes of Etsy is how easy it is to find new shops that suit your style. As with many popular online shops, you are given the oppo...
I usually don’t write much about my weekends or other extracurricular activities, mainly because I either forget to bring a camera or I never feel that there is anything that exciting happening...
Some photos are simply inspirational, while others are simply too perfect for words. (photo via Art Decade Tumblr)
This past weekend, I finally bought my first Vogue magazine in…over a year? It wasn’t intentional, but I was going on a little impromptu trip to a hotel after a huge storm left me withou...
I feel like I should be grateful with all of the shopping options that I have in the U.S–and living in Chicago, no less. It’s true that we don’t have a Topshop and Henri Bendel jum...
Image via We Heart It I always find dressing during the summer to be difficult. I’m used to layering and I continue to pile layers on top of layers of shirts on, even in 90+ degree weather. ...
There has been some technical difficulty around here lately, hasn’t there? My apologies for all of the downtime. I’m still working on getting everything back to 100%, so please bear wit...
I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July weekend–or even a wonderful weekend for those who don’t celebrate. I felt like this long weekend was a much needed break from some usual commot...
First, I want to say thank you to everyone that retweeted, wrote about and entered this giveaway with Shabby Apple. I truly, truly appreciate it! I’m glad that it was so well received and the...
I’ve always admired scarves from a distance, but never really felt like I could master the art of wearing them. You know how they say that you have to wear the clothes, don’t let the clot...
I think it’s safe to say that every lady loves having a little black dress in her closet. Whether it’s for a hectic day at the office or a dinner date with someone special, a little bla...
I know I didn’t use the full title of Nina Simone’s classic song in the title of my post, but unfortunately, this post isn’t about hair. Still, this song was on my mind over the wee...
Image via We Heart It There hasn’t been one word. Not a peep. I’ve been pretty quiet lately and I haven’t really been able to dedicate much time to writing on my blog as much as I&#...
