Memorial Day Sunshine


When you live in Chicago, there's no such thing as one weather forecast. You could be on one end of town sweating in the sunshine, but by the time you make to the other side, it's cloudy, cold and rainy. It's why you might see some paranoid Chicagoans walking around with jackets and scarves or wearing pants on an 80-degree day-- because Chicago. I like to carry a scarf or light jacket with me nearly everywhere I go because a) what I just told you and b) I'm practically cold-blooded. 

I'm in love with my fur scarf because it's warm and easy to lug around. 

Moving on to my feet... I just found these shoes at a vintage market I went to over the weekend and it was literally a Cinderella moment. They fit perfectly and there was no turning back. I may never take these bad boys off!

Hope you all enjoyed the long holiday weekend. A big thanks to those who make this day happen each and every year.

  1. I love how effortlessly chic this looks. And a fur wrap/scarf always gives me like an old school flapper/film noir vibe. Very classic.

    1. Bipolar is most definitely the way to describe it! Today it was in the 50s... bring something for every season!
