Layers, Denim and Stripes… Oh my Fall is here bringing all the cozy feels, and of course, the fashion along with it! I love that time of the year when it’s just a little brisk and you can throw on a couple of cute layers, with no jacket needed. When I put this duster over
A couple weeks ago we did a Lauren and Lillian “mommy and me” session in a sunflower field and apple orchard with Kat of Double You Photography while we waited for daddy to meet us for family pics. So grateful to have some mother-daughter moments captured, as I’m usually the one holding the camera! I
For months I’d known that we had a wedding coming up in the rural mountains of Montana. I’d seen the pictures of the mountains on the bride-to-be’s Instagram. One of which she simply captioned “The picture doesn’t do it justice.” Yeah yeah, the mountains are gorgeous, take a pic etc etc. But she’s SO right!
Recently I took a trip back down to Chicago to visit the pop up experience The Happy Place. It’s basically a blogger’s paradise. Instagramland if you will. A warehouse installation with several different rooms full of fun and colorful photo ops! Obviously, I had to check it out before it’s last day, September 3rd, 2018.
OH this darling dusty blue dress for our date night in Door County! (okay that was a little heavy on the alliteration…) But for real, this dress!!! I bought this as my birthday present to myself during a quick shopping trip the day before we left for our getaway. I went to SoHo Boutique,
Patio life is the life for me! Especially in a cute jumpsuit. Eating and drinking outside on gorgeous Summer day, in a great outfit with good people makes me REALLY happy! It feels like such a treat when you live in Wisconsin, or anywhere it’s cold for over half of the year. Give me a
This afternoon with Lillian was not the first, and I’m sure won’t be the last time that I’m the only mom at the park wearing a dress. Maybe I’m crazy for getting dressed up in mom life. Maybe I’m just a fashion fanatic. Maybe looking good just makes me feel good and love living in
When I heard that I new clothing boutique was opening up in our little village of Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, I was obviously excited and anxious for it’s arrival. I was invited to the opening party of Soho Boutique this Winter, where I shopped, sipped wine and tried on too many clothes. Since I’ve returned to
Recently I was invited by Pamela Kieck, Badger Liquor and Veuve Cliquot on a boat ride along the Milwaukee river. Anything that involves champs and chatting with my blogger babes is already appealing. But also while floating through the city on a Veuve cruise? YASSS PLEASE! So it was time for some pre-summer style to
Black and white polka dots is a classic print that we will continue to see season after season. The tie-front/cut-out trend is something that will come and go. But this polka dot dress combines the two terrifically for trending lightly this Spring and Summer. Surprisingly I only own one other polka dot piece, and I
Photography: Amanda Vick After a loooooong Wisconsin winter, we finally thawed out up here and Spring blooms began to pop up! For months I stared longingly out the back window wondering what my garden looks like and waiting to get my hands back in the dirt. I’d completely forgotten all that I planted and
Brian Mattinson Photography Fun at The Pfister Hotel A couple months back, during an unseasonably warm Wisconsin weekend, some blogger babes and I booked ourselves a little stay-cation at Milwaukee’s famous Pfister Hotel. In the heart of downtown Milwaukee, this architectural stunner definitely stands out with very regal feels. Once inside, the amazing classical interiors
