Well! It’s Valentine’s Day, folks, whether you love it or hate it. I happen to love Valentine’s Day. To me, it feels like it’s just another excuse to be happy and colorful and excited. I got a bouquet from my very favorite valentines (my parents). The framed quote above is my gift for them. Don’t…
Read Morewon’t you be my valentine?
I felt like having a little fun with pink and red in honor of Valentine’s day. The red Nike shirt seemed fitting, along with my American apparel skirt and petticoat, grey Hue tights, and my purple Steve Madden boots. I’ve been representing Chicago on my keychain lately. And this felt like as good a day as any…
Read Morean outfit for girls’ night out
So- I know I said that I rarely dressed preppy in my last post. Well whoops! Here is a little more prep with my mom’s old letter sweater from the high school she went to in Iran. Underneath that is a silk top from Ann Taylor Loft, all pulled together with a belt from Anthropologie. The Nike sweet…
Read Morethe prep-ster
This is the outfit I wore to work the other day. It’s a bit more preppy than my normal attire, but it was a fun outfit. I’m wearing my Nike Blue Chips, some jeans from Target, and a Ralph Lauren polo. The Carhartt track jacket above has captured my heart- it’s so comfortable and…
Read Morejust add a little mustache
Today I spent some time in Wicker Park at the Carhartt store on Milwaukee. I was feeling like a nice pop of neon orange and some bright yellows. So I threw on my grey and orange Nike high tops with my crazy mustache man socks from Urban Outfitters. The necklace I’m wearing is from a great little Chicago…
Read Morebreaking in a new pair of shoes
I decided to walk around Lincoln Park a little bit to break in my new sneakers. I kinda went houndstooth crazy with my outfit. The t-shit I’m wearing is a boy’s tee that I cropped. I love the acorn necklace I’m wearing…pretty much because I’m obsessed with Peter Pan. (shirt: Nike, shorts: Victoria’s Secret, tights: Hue, sneakers: Nikes,…
Read Morea little Duck Tape will fix anything- especially if it’s houndstooth Duck Tape
I got a new pair of basketball shoes! HOORAY! This particular pair has slots with interchangeable color discs so you can change the color of the Nike check. The colors felt a little boring to me, so I took some houndstooth Duck Tape and made my own color discs. Now I have houndstooth Nike checks…

Everyone wants to be comfortable while they watch the super bowl. I’m wearing some great bell bottoms that I want to live in from Anthropologie (Pilcro and the Letterpress), a Nike little boy’s tee that I cut up, my yellow watch from Target, and some wedges from Urban Outfitters. Now bring on the beer and…
Read Moregoing out in Old Town
Last night, I went to Old Town Social for a friend’s going away party. Paige and I got a Craft Margarita- what was interesting about it was they put powdered sugar on the rim of the glass. It was good, especially since the drink was so strong. My outfit for the night was…
Read MoreCrossroads Exhibition
So last Friday night, the opening night of the Crossroads exhibit was at RGB Lounge in Chicago. This was something I’ve been collaborating on  for the past few months. Maria Scileppi was the mastermind behind it all. On Black Friday, she tracked a group of about 40 people as they moved about the city. With…
