There are only a few days left in 2015 and I can't help but reflect on this year as it quickly passes us by. This year hasn't been the easiest one, my family has gone through some difficult times but it's with smiles, optimistic views on life, strength and bond, that we've been able to get through it all...
Read MoreOne of my favorite times of the year is now!!! We've actually had a super crazy warm front in Chicago... obviously El Niño in full swing! However every year around this time most of us, especially peeps that live in cold climates, plan vacations, trips, escapes, and for me this year baby moons!
So today's post will be all about my favorite, swim and resort wear. This is part one of my Miami getaway, I'll have part two and all my outfit details along with shopping guides in the next post. So for now, sit back, relax, and read all about Wala Swim my favorite in all beach/resort wear!

Read MoreOne thing's for certain... this growing belly is getting harder and harder to dress. My previous two pregnancies I was getting larger in the summer and therefore my wardrobe consisted of jersey fabric maxi dresses, bandage skirts and tees. Now I'm preggo in a completely different season, mind you, I live in Chicago and therefore getting bigger as the weather gets colder has proven to be a bit more difficult.
However, I'm up for the challenge and as I've previously stated, I don't believe in wearing majority maternity wear. I mean who wants to spend all that money on six months of your life?! I say six because technically you don't start showing till month three. My goal is to only buy pieces that will transition with my body and that I can still wear post the bump.
So this is where the cape comes in!

Read MoreLast week was one of those super insane weeks with shoots, styling gigs and a ton of events! It's been getting a bit harder with this pregnancy to be on my feet all day, (I wear heels to work a lot and may be on my feet anywhere from 10 to 12 hours), then heading over to work parties/events...it's been a bit wacky for one human making lady to handle!
However there was one celebration I simply couldn't miss. I've been so excited for the Elina Casell by Mia Bossi handbag line collab. Ok so I'm a bit biased...part of my so called 'Girl Squad' is the creator of Mia Bossi, Janet Mandel. So of course I wanted to support her, even if it meant wobbling my preggo ass to her Blackhawks (yes you'll love this sports fans) Star-Studded Event!

Read MoreAlthough the last few leaves are quickly blowing off the trees and we are in the final days of fall, don't pack away your summer dresses just yet. The key layering piece in your wardrobe this year is the turtleneck and it's the key to keep your favorite summer staples in rotation this season. I personally love this Wolford version that I've had for years but there are plenty of other wonderful options out there for a bargain.

Read MoreThe crazy thing about blogging, besides constantly being sorta in the public eye via social media and such; is that it actually is a bit like my personal diary. It's nice to sometimes look back and see where I was just a few short years ago when I started documenting my outfits and talking fashion news. Here and there I always sprinkle bits and pieces of my personal life as this is after all MY LIFE!
So perhaps the biggest news of all is.... that YES this IS a baby bump and NO I'm not just sporting a new beer belly!
Read MoreThe other night I threw a fun little Halloween Pumpkin Carving Party at my house, for my girlfriends and their kiddies! I love Halloween, it's one of my favorite holidays of all time, actually who am I kidding, I love every holiday....any reason to decorate!
Read MoreI used to say, I would never be caught dead in sweats and a tee walking down the street. I also said I would never live in the burbs after living in the city majority of my life, fast forward to this suburban-urban living in the North Shore of Chicago and rocking her sweats down the streets! Perhaps there's a life lesson there! Never say... NEVER!What I wore: Tee: The Boyfriend V Neck similar HERE Pants: Eversoft Slouchy Pants similar HERE Jacket: Zara similar HERE Sunnies: AJ Morgan Booties: Pedro Garcia similar HERE Backpack: SheIn similar HERE Earrings: Forever21
