OOTD
Necessary Clothing
I don't know about you, but when it comes to getting dressed in the morning, I like to have a closet full of staples pieces that I can mix and match for a polished and put-together look! I then add onto these key pieces with various accessories to create different looks depending on the mood I'm in or what I'm doing that day. Necessary Clothing, a company based on Soho with an online store, is definitely one of my new favorite places to shop for affordable staple pieces as well as fun and …

It's crazy when I stop and think about how long I've been blogging for and how much my life has changed in these past three years. When I started this blog, I would never have been able to imagine myself where I am now. I've been incredibly lucky to meet …
Perspective

The city is always changing and buzzing with activity. My roommate {and wonderful photographer} Ola and I took a trip downtown to shoot for the blog and we ended up at the Chicago Cultural Center. This place is absolutely stunning... I'm talking fancy wedding reception stunning. There are two different …
Waldorf Chicago
Last weekend I got to go to The Waldorf in Chicago to celebrate my Big's early graduation with brunch at the Balsan! The building was stunning, brunch was fantastic, and the whole place was all decked out for Christmas. My wonderful greek twin, Fiona, (my Big has two littles, myself & Fiona, so we're twins), took some outfit of the day pictures for me around the hotel and with the huge tree outside!
