Obsessed with this dress.

Jennifer Nettles looked absolutely stunning at the ACM's. Just GORGEOUS!

My apartment made it into....

Apartment Therapy's House Call! I'm so so shocked, honored and estatic. I think this is just the start to more of my designs coming to life.

Dream on.

I swear I'm not boring....

I've just been really busy savoring every last bit of Fall!


Here's a peak at what I've been up to (the last month or so)


so, I went to D.C.
(yes, The Nation's capitol definitely lived up to the hype...)

one of my best friends got married...
(a bestie, not me)

I moved apartments, can we say UPGRADE! My neew bedroom is below (-: 
(oh how I love modern, vintage fabulousness!)

and then it was Halloween! (I was Rhianna from her new video 'We Found Love') although I looked a lot like Rosie the Riveter 
(oh, well-- it's whatevs)

 More posts to come, I promise!

An apology... [ to my beloved Chicago(ians) ]


to Chicago...

I am sorry.
I am sorry for running off every weekend. 
I am sorry that as of late, I only see your beautiful skyline from the corner of my rearview mirror, or from the 8x10 window I peer out of from my aisle seat. 
I am sorry.
---------------------------------
I am sorry for not showing face at Castaways,
 for only catching three Cubs games,
and for only shutting down Beaumont's twice.
I am sorry. 

... and to my Chicago(ians)

I miss you.
I miss our family dinners.
I miss our bottomless bloody mary/mimosa brunches on Sunday's.
I miss our Saturday morning texts which always included three choices, "North Ave.? Fullerton beach?or maybe a rooftop?" 
I miss you.
---------------------------------
I miss too many people to name.
 I miss your smiles, 
your sweet, sweet souls,
and your name popping up on my phone Friday-Sunday cause you know I'm out runnin' again.
I miss you.

So this is just a little note of reassurance. 
Come October, our little long distance love fest will subside. It's been a wild ride and one of the best Summer's to date, but you Chicago make it easy to come HOME.

So here's to Fall... 
to year 24.
to Bears' games (or at least the tailgating part),
to a new apartment,
to extra large hoodies,
and to shutting down Beaumont's more than necessary.

I can't wait to rekindle our little love affair.

until then....



peace. love. and chicago
