Today’s post is a little glimpse at what life in Chicago has looked like lately…
What I Wore to Shedd Blu: Nha Khahn Dress | Elizabeth Cole Earrings | Lele Sadoughi Bracelet | Inge Christopher Clutch (all from Rent the Runway!)
Picked up some of my favorite beauty products when Birchbox was in Chicago: Supergoop! Set | Oribe Travel Set | Smashbox Try-It Kit | Caudalie Purifying Mask | Caudalie Beauty Elixir (PS: Rug is West Elm!)
New print for my apartment! (On top of my Serena & Lily Counter Stools!)
Cocktails at Atwood, complete with matching sunglasses & phonecase
What I wore to Create + Cultivate in Chicago: Just Fab Top | Madewell Belt | Ann Taylor Skirt (similar here & here) | C. Wonder Sandals (old, similar here, here, here) | Bauble Bar Earrings
PS: You may have noticed that style/outfit posts have been a little bit sparse lately and there’s a really simple reason for that: I don’t have a photographer in Chicago yet! So I need your help on this one — If you know anyone in Chicago that’s a kickass photographer, please send them my way or send me their contact information! Amateurs, professionals, students… I’m pretty open as long as they have experience in the portrait/lifestyle realm. Thanks a million in advance! 🙂
Love what you wore to Create + Cultivate! Such a good summer outfit. Also, the oribe travel set – such a great way to try those products out before buying the big cans! I love them all though!

Wow. Jess, this redesign is awesome! I loved the old version for the content but now the whole website fits together in a beautiful way. And unlike any other design I’ve seen. Bravo!

You look gorgeous in your blue/white dress! Chicago is such a beautiful city; it’s a shame I don’t visit it more often. I feel your pain about the whole photographer problem. I’m in the same boat!

I do know a couple of photographers in Chicago, let me know if you still need someone.
Your outfit for Create + Cultivate was gorgeous! I’m gonna shoot you an e-mail with a friend of mine’s, Blair, contact info. She’s great and has shot some of my outfits before when we happen to be in the same city.
