My Look: Feels Like Spring

Last week ushered in the first real taste of spring.  This time of year always seems to puzzle me, what is appropriate?  Surely nobody wants to see my SUPER pale tights-less legs quite yet, but how do I find that middle ground?
 Last Thursday the above ensem' was my answer.  The deep mustard skirt is from Madewell which I paired with my J.Crew chambray shirt, belted and topped with a few gold accessories.  Last but not least, my leather jacket had to make an appearance,  I definitely plan on bringing this look out again soon.
 On Sunday afternoon I started playing around with a few things in my closet, and this is what came out of the try on session.  The dress is from Anthropologie, I layered it with one of my all time favorite sweaters, and my jean jacket.  I can't wait to find the right times and places to wear this...over and over again.
It will be fun to dress it down with my sweet new kicks from Gap or dress it up with my Zara heels.  The whole outfit is also ridiculously comfortable...which is pretty much my goal most days while getting dressed.

Home Sweet Second Home

Things have been a bit chaotic as of late.  Once I finally got myself and my "4 jobs" organized I have kept mighty busy.  Job 1) job search (they're not lying when they call it full-time work), Job 2) promoting Kevin Clark and his book The Great Economic Train Wreck, Job 3) CulutureWorks ICA Admin Asst. (etc...), Job 4) this blog of course!!

Thanks to said organizational skills, I planned a super quick trip to my old stomping grounds, Chicago, this week.  I was in town for a couple of interviews and was also lucky enough to spend some time with friends and shopping at my favorite European invasion stores.  The trip was not complete without a stop to see the brand new Perchance Gold Coast!  See my fun photos below!


Such a sweet sight to see.  Thanks for a great two days Chicago!

My first TOPSHOP experience!
The shoe section blew my mind.


I worked at Perchance on Southport for nearly three years and had the best experience, and I am SO happy for their success and the opening of the Gold Coast location!
