Details

Today it's all about the little things. Literally. Without accessorizing, today's outfit would be nothing more than jeans and a tank. That said, this look is filled with mixed textures, stacked bracelets, and a really awesome hat to top things off! Yes, today, the details make the outfit!

Cheeky Chicago Real People of Style 2013

Last Thursday we attended one of our favorite social events of the year, Cheeky Chicago's Real People of Style Spring Fashion Show. The title says it all, and it's all right up our alley! Lucky for us, we were able to photograph behind the scenes for Chicago Blogger Network and meet some of our favorite Chicagoans before they hit the runway.

Models included Chicago Blogger Network's very own Kelly O'Brien, Emma Arnold of Tres Awesome, Graham Kostic of Glossed & Found, and designer Agga B.

Did we mention Florence + The Machine played DJ for the night, and the event was followed by an after party at the Drumbar Chicago? Yeah, we had fun ;)

Minted Statement

Nothing like a splash of mint to welcome spring especially when paired with a fun statement necklace! What can we say- neutrals never fail and a top knot's always chic! Enjoy and stay tuned for another styling with this Swordplay necklace from Glamboutique, we're obsessed!

Every day I'm hustlin'...

Every morning we battle the same decision: 15 more minutes of sleep or actually taking the time to style ourselves for the day. Fore those times when the snooze button wins, a sweater and boots are sure to keep you cozy and comfortable before that first cup of  coffee sets in, while a collared shirt will keep you professional. Add a statement necklace, bright lips, & voilà! No one will ever know you slept in ;)
