new outfit: winter lounging

This has been a VERY COLD February for Chicago. I thought I could skip Winter Dread this year, but it just arrived a little late. To stay warm lounging around the house, I am wearing sweater leggings from American Apparel, and a sweatshirt and scarf from Target. When I have to go outside, I putContinue reading “new outfit: winter lounging”

outfit for the office on a cold day

We are SO CLOSE to the beginning of the end of winter, but unfortunately we’re not there yet. I finally replaced my snow boots with these from Macy’s, and I like them very much, but in cold weather you’ll need an additional liner or extra-warm socks. This outfit helped me stay warm in the office with lotsContinue reading “outfit for the office on a cold day”

new outfit: errands on a chilly day

It’s the day before Thanksgiving! Time to do any last minute errands and traveling before the cooking begins. If you have any running around to do, I hope it goes quickly, safely, and that the weather isn’t too bad. Over the weekend when I was running my own errands I wore my new Michael KorsContinue reading “new outfit: errands on a chilly day”

new outfit: sweater weather

October is my favorite month. I love the crispness of fall weather, the changing leaves, and finally getting to wear scarves again. And, of course, the return of sweater weather.

I work very close to Millennium Park, and every Monday this summer they had a free concert as part of Downtown Sound. I was able toContinue reading “concert in millennium park and what i wore”

errands and what i wore

Sometimes you just need to get things done. I am getting ready for another trip and I prioritized function over from with my Mizzou gym shorts and trusty dinosaur sweatshirt from Topshop (thanks polar vortex in July). I’m so excited to be heading back to Michigan, but right now there’s a pretty big to-do list betweenContinue reading “errands and what i wore”

new outfit: getting ready for the fourth

Happy almost Fourth of July! After some crazy storms this week it’s been a little cooler here in Chicago so I’m wearing jeans from the Gap, sandals from Target, a bag from H&M, and a top from Liz Claiborne. There was obviously no podcast this week–we are taking a break for the Fourth. But we’llContinue reading “new outfit: getting ready for the fourth”

easy outfit friday: summer dress

It’s summertime! I know, it felt like it would never come. We have casual Fridays in my new office. It was easy to be casual when the temperatures were crisp–I’d just wear jeans and a nice top. Now that it’s getting hot, I’ve been turning to some bright summer dresses. The light flowiness of thisContinue reading “easy outfit friday: summer dress”
