I took a little excursion last Friday afternoon to Rosemont and checked out the much talked about Fashion Outlets of Chicago. Let’s just say when I first heard about this place and “Barneys Warehouse” was brought up, I was already sold. But as always, I had to see for myself.
While doing my daily research (which is usually code for online shopping), I noticed things are getting a little…shiny. And I thought we should talk about it.
Dresses are one of those things that I like to have around “just in case” but I always end up in shorts or pants (depending on the weather, of course). There’s something about a dress that’s just so…dressy. And I don’t always love feeling so dressed up. But I decided I to get a little fancy this week, so this happened.
With one of the largest music festivals in the world happening this weekend in Chicago, there’s a lot of good, bad, and down right crazy about to go on at Lollapalooza. I’m sure you’ve gotten your fair share of “what to wear to a music festival” posts, last year I shared my Lollapalooza essentials (which go for any music festival, really) and this year I’m doing something a little different.
Because I tend to injure myself on a daily basis due to sharp jewelry, spiked shoes or other fashion items that could potentially double as a weapon, I thought I’d do a little soul searching to figure out…why do I wear these things when I know a Cynthia Rowley Band-Aid will be in my near future? And I think I figured it out.
