blouse: Banana Republic // denim: Rag & Bone // shades: Prada // shoes: Old Navy // bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim

You know I love clean lines and minimalistic styling. So when I discovered this crisp white blouse with a vented back shirttail, I immediately added it to my spring wardrobe. I’ve also been swapping out dark denim for lighter blues these past few weeks. Feeling optimistic for Spring.  Really, I’m just hoping for warmer weather and fresh blooms in Chicago!

knitwear: Mango // denim: Zara // bag: Barneys New York // shades: Céline // lip: Fiona Stiles Beauty // loafers: Prada

Finally transitioning into warmer weather with light knitwear. Loafers and slip-on sneakers are my go-to shoes for spring. For this look I kept it casual with distressed denim, neutral knitwear and black accessories. To keep it feminine, I chose a driving loafer and a brighter lip for a pop of color. What are some of your favorite transition pieces for spring?

Who doesn’t love a great bag? I choose quality over quantity for the majority of my wardrobe, especially when it comes to an investment bag. I’ve recently come to love Bag Borrow or Steal, an online platform to borrow and share designer bags. It’s such a great way to experience different styles, designers and refresh your accessories. All you have to do is create an account (promotion for new users) and you’re a few clicks away from designer bags shipped to your door! Enjoy!

trench: Burberry // sweater: Madewell // jeans: Armani Exchange // shades: Prada // moccasin boots: Isabel Marant Étoile

This fall has been unseasonably mild for Chicago – no complaints from me! Though a warmer and water-resistant trench is a versatile option to get your through the chillier days ahead. I just added this one to my closet, mostly because of the button-out quilted liner and detachable hood. So, it’s perfect for both warm and chilly temperatures. A win-win all around!

cashmere sweater: Uniqlo // scarf: True Religion // shades: Marc by Marc Jacobs // leggings: True Religion // boots: Prada 

I picked up these coated denim leggings and scarf last week when I attended the Michigan Ave. True Religion event. Their fall/winter collection has so many great pieces, but I just loved the fit of these ‘Runway Leggings’. Not only do they fit like a glove, but they’re comfortable and they look like leather. So, I decided on a neutral v-neck cashmere sweater and classic black booties to keep my look feeling polished, but with a bit of edge.

shirt: Banana Republic // pants: Vince // shades: Prada // shoes: Vince // bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim

Black and white is a great timeless go-to look. I’m loving the clean lines and sheer details on this shirttail –  a great alternative to a basic button-down. Oh, and did I mention I’m growing my hair out! I’ve had various pixie cuts for over 10 years, and now it’s time to try a short bob!
