Top: Ace Delivery from Nordstrom; Jeans: Hudson; Shoes: Adam Tucker.

One of my must-haves for fall is a great plaid top. I got this one by Ace Delivery at Nordstrom. I paired it with with some leather Adam Tucker flats and my favorite pair of Hudson jeans and was ready for a Sunday walk along the Chicago river with my guy.

Top: Leith from Nordstrom; Shorts: Akira Chicago; Bracelets: Nordstrom BP & TopShop; Sandals: Sam Edelman.

Lunching and shopping on Michigan Avenue called for a laid back, breezy summer look. This tank and these lightweight shorts from Akira were perfect. My favorite part of this outfit were the new bracelets I wore from TopShop and Nordstrom BP. I’m obsessed with light, but colorful dainty jewelry.

Sweater: H&M; Shorts: Juicy Couture; Bag: Badgley Mischka; Shoes: Louboutin.

I am a big fan of gold. Anything gold. So naturally when I found these shorts at Juicy Couture (which is no longer there, sniff) in Beverly Hills a few months back, I just had to have them. They are actually running shorts, but I knew with a few key accessories and some simple black touches I could turn them into a cute outfit for a night out on the town.

Dress & Jewelry: Nordstrom BP; Crossbody bag: Bagdley Mischka; Sandals: Sam Edelman.

Love this print dress from Nordstrom BP. Great for casual dinners and summer nights out with the bf.

Dress: Tolani; Sandals: Tory Burch; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.

I love silk, and I love the bright, vibrant colors of this Tolani. It’s a great dress for warmer summer — easy and breezy.

Dress: Urban Outfitters; Bag: Badgley Mischka; Sandals: Steve Madden; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.

In my opinion, the sundress is the summer staple every girl should have in her closet. But choosing the right one can be tricky. For me, lighter and breezier, the better. Summer ease with a little flounce. A tiny bit of lace like this one from Urban Outfitters adds a little “girlie” accent.

 Top: Madwell; Cargos: Zara; Bag: Louis Vuitton; Shoes: Louboutin; Sunglasses: Chloe.

I’ve never owned a pair of cargos until I found these great Zara skinny cargos. I’m in love. I paired them with a slightly tucked in Madewell oxford button down. I wore them to one of my favorite brunch places in Chicago, the Winchester.
