Kale Caesar Salad from Siena Tavern Chicago. Yum.

Only the most amazing dessert ever: beignets with raspberry, chocolate hazelnut and caramel whiskey sauces.

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.

Sundress & Sunsets

Sun burst.

Cheers to summer. <3

Dress: Blu Moon; Bracelets: TopShop; Sandals in hand: Tory Burch.

On a recent trip up to a lake house in Michigan, the bf and I took in the sunset with some champagne, making for a perfect evening. I wore a fall-toned sundress by Blu Moon from Planet Blue. It’s one of my favorites and great for an evening on the beach.

Black & Gold

Date night with the bf. // 8.15.14

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

Bag: Badgley Mischka.

Love these shorts, even if they are meant for running in.

Date night at Stella Barra Chicago.

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.

Tea-worthy Dressing

Afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel Chicago. // 8.13.14

Dress: Madewell; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Sandals: Sam Edelman.

Love love LOVE this color. So summery.

Bag: Henri Bendel; Bracelet: Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Lovely afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel Chicago.

Dress: Madewell; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Sandals: Sam Edelman; Bag: Henri Bendel; Bracelet: Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Afternoon tea at the Peninsula is something my mom and I have been doing for years. For this outing, I decided to wear a bright blue dress by Madewell — perfect for an afternoon of tea and pastries.
