Pose With Me

Although I’d love to, I don’t post personal style photos that often here on ChiCityFashion because honestly…I don’t have a photographer boyfriend like most personal style bloggers (I have a boyfriend…photography just isn’t his forte :))

But now thanks to Pose, I can share more personal style photos…instantly!

Photobucket

It’s a really easy to way to share what you’re wearing or what you’re coveting (which I’ll most likely be sharing both). Just download on your phone, snap some photos and share them.

Chi City Closet: My Custom Proenza Schouler PS1

This is the ultimate Chi City Closet post; where I’m finally sharing photos of my custom Proenza Schouler PS1! You got a sneak peak last week in the Proenza Surprise post but I had to build up the hype just a little bit more, right? 🙂

This is the medium Proenza Schouler PS1 in purple python with black python trim and a neon yellow suede interior. It’s officially the most amazing item in my closet and I don’t think anything will ever top it. Enjoy!

Photobucket

Thank you to everyone at Proenza Schouler, including Jack and Lazaro, for helping me design this bag. Thank you to Charity Buzz…because without them, this wouldn’t have been possible. And thank you to Amy Creyer of Chicago Street Style for taking the amazing photos of me with my custom PS1!

It was actually the 2 year anniversary of ChiCityFashion.com on Friday so this officially my celebratory post. Thank you all for supporting my blog for the last 2 years. It means the world to me.

New York Fashion Week Candid on Chicago Street Style

I was so excited to see yesterday that Amy from Chicago Street Style posted a candid photo of me from New York Fashion Week.

Although I despise most pictures of myself, I don’t mind them as much if I’m not looking at the camera…and with Amy’s amazing photography skills, I can never hate her photos. Plus, she’s been killing it with the candids lately! Click here to view the full post.

See all of my NYFW street style looks here.

Currently Obsessing Over: Miroslava Duma

I’ve always been intrigued by former Harper’s Bazaar Russia editor Miroslava Duma. I’ve seen her street style photos all over the internet, mostly in the past year or so. But after seeing her in person a few times outside Lincoln Center for the Spring ’12 shows, my obsession was taken to another level. Not only is she stunning but her style just keeps getting better and better. Plus I told her I love her dress (in the orange number below) and she was really sweet about it…she just seems really appreciative of people liking her style, which I think is awesome.
