On Michigan Avenue


{Madewell tee, H&M skirt (also seen here) & necklace, J.Crew necklace, Fringe bracelet, Jenna Kator handbag, Aldo sandals, Steve Madden sunnies}

Growing up I was taught that everyone has clothes that they wear to church and clothes for everyday wear, these two separate wardrobes shouldn't be mixed. While the rest of my family still abides by this "rule", I have been the rebel of the family and mix it all together.  I maximize my clothes and believe that just about anything can be worn year around with a few simple staple swaps. While it still doesn't feel summer-y  in Chicago yet, as the mornings and evenings are still quite cool; this skirt is the perfect length to keep me from freezing but still  flowy enough to keep me from overheating. Paired with the most comfortable tee I own and some wedge sandals, shopping with my roommate on Michigan Ave. was the stress relief we needed after a hard day at work. Shopping and one of my favorite local beers, summer days are here to stay!
