Style, food, thoughts, and cocktails
I ordered the most beautiful pleated golden skirt from Asos a few weeks back and honestly could live in it every day. It's an amazing weight, light but still heavy enough to hold it's shape, is a color I'll definitely want to wear year round, and fits perfectly (hello, elastic waist band). I'm totally obsessed [...]
There are those certain outfits that cool, fashion girls can always pull off, but in real life trying to pull it off can some times make you feel like a frumpy mess. Jeans under a dress has always been one of those things for me. I'll see an outfit from time-to-time where it's pulled off [...]
There's something incredibly empowering about making yourself up for a date night. You get to wear clothes that make you feel confident, play up your favorite features with makeup, and actually take the time to do your hair. Loving your outer appearance sometimes is exactly what you need to give you the extra boost of [...]
Happy, Happy Halloween ghouls and boys! I'm here with my third super easy makeup look for All Hallow's Eve. This one is honestly my favorite, mostly because I love the little bit of iridescent sparkle everywhere. This look doesn't take much time at all to put together, and is a cool, subtle look for any [...]
Happy Halloween weekend! I'm gearing up for the spookiest weekend of the year with another easy Halloween makeup look: the modern witch. This witchy look doesn't include a full face of green paint or glued-on warts, but instead is a bit sleeker, gothic look that will have you feeling equally scary and cool. To achieve [...]

Still a bit warm, but the air is smelling crisper, the mornings are a bit cooler, and the stores are putting out their autumnal colors and Halloween decor. Going shopping in the early Fall has to be the most refreshing time to [...]
Did this summer fly by for anyone else? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the Fall season, but I feel like our warm, sunny days were cut too short and I'm not ready to put away my flowy summer dresses quite yet. As long as the weather permits, I'm pulling my warm-weather dresses out [...]
We're post-Labor Day, which means it's Autumn in my mind, which really means I can't stop buying pumpkins, craving farmers markets, home baked treats, and adding fun layers to my outfits. This last weekend I needed to run some errands and it was such a beautiful, September morning. Warm sun, cool breeze, not a cloud [...]
After a quick break from blogging, I'm back at it and more excited than ever. I have a lineup of content that I cannot wait to share with you guys: new style inspo, easy cocktail recipes, and decorating tips and tricks. The last couple of months have been a whirlwind for me, I had a [...]
The weather in Chicago this weekend was absolutely gorgeous and has got Spring on my mind.
