Sunny Joy!

What a day of warm temperatures and sunshine does for my mood is amazing! This past Saturday I was able to ditch the jacket and take advantage of lattes on the patio, a long walk to visit Laurie in the Ukrainian Village, and some window shopping in Lincoln Park. To top off an already awesome day, I had just received this floral midi skirt in the mail and put it on immediately. I’ve been on the hunt of one that was right for my proportions, as the midi skirt can be tricky to pull off for someone that is pear shaped and short. I’m loving the pattern on this skirt and decided to dress it down for the day with a soft grey tee.

You may notice something different in today’s photos, straight hair. Laurie did my makeup this Saturday and then convinced me to let her straighten my hair. My hair has always been somewhat of my security blanket; I always felt weird with straight hair but given that I got a ton of compliments on it later that day, I may just start trying out it more often.

Oh and my Sole Society wedges – I’m never taking them off! They have truly aced the test as I wore them out Friday night while celebrating Sam’s birthday and then almost all day Saturday. These babies will be my go to this summer.

    Love that skirt and whole outfit! Your hair looks amazing! It was so nice on Saturday here, too. It felt great to break out the shorts. Even though today it snowed, and I wore a parka to work:)

    I really like this look. I feel grey tees are so trendy right now, I think I need to go shopping to find one for me too. I also love the Rebecca Minkoff bag, I have been craving this model for so long! Xo, Alexandra
