On my travels, I always make a point of hunting out boutiques, flea markets and niche brands that I can’t find back home. Here, is where I buy my souvenirs. Now, don’t misunderstand, I shop regularly at Zara, Mango and…
I hope you all had a enjoyed the long holiday weekend! I arrived late last night from Athens and am already back at it this morning. #cantstopwontstop I get asked all the time on how I am able to take…
Each week, when I’m looking for pieces to include in the Friday Finds, I tend to feature those pieces that have caught my eye. Perhaps subconsciously, I tend to create somewhat of a color story. This week, I’m especially drawn…
This post is sponsored by JTV.com. I was paid for this post and received JTV.com jewelry pieces as compensation. Erring on the side of simplistic ensembles, it’s no surprise that my wardrobe tends to be more minimalistic and monochromatic; only…
Finding a different outfit to wear to all those Summer weddings can be daunting and quite frankly, expensive. I’m headed to a wedding in Detroit in the next few weeks and decided to shop my own closet. Re-purposing pieces you…
As a blogger, and one that tends to write more frequently about fashion, I feel like most expect me to put a large emphasis on statement pieces. As I look back at my style, this most definitely was the case…
These glass domes are making such a statement in design and they are practically everywhere you turn! There’s something magical about “capturing” a moment, a flower or even one of your favorite possessions and displaying them under a cloche. It…
As summer slowly ends, I have been looking for ways to transition my beauty regimen for the fall months. With a few new beauty finds and accessories, I think I just might be ready… My skin is “complicated”, at least…
After yesterday’s post, I’m sure you can tell I’ve been on a neutral kick for the Fall months ahead. Which brings me to my next point…Nate Berkus’ Fall Collection for Target came out two days ago and is already selling…
This week’s Must Have is a small addition to a space but nevertheless a detail that won’t go overlooked. I came across these arrow wall hooks at Cb2 and am a bit obsesses. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? Show…
1.// 2.// 3.// 4.// 5.// 6.// 7.// 8.// 9. I’m getting to the phase where the big pieces have been purchased (for the most part) and finishing up the rooms depends primarily on the details. Last week, I was hunting…
The first week of 2014 and we’re dealing with -52 wind chills over here in Chicago. Or shall I say, Chiberia? Fortunately enough, the hubs and I were able to work from the comfort of our own home and hide…
Good Morning! Did you all have a wonderful weekend? Ours was super busy- Jennifer and I were shooting more looks all day Saturday (some exciting stuff coming your way) and then Petar and I attended a beautiful wedding that same…
Good Morning lovelies! Today’s post is a bit late but I come bearing good finds for the home! After purchasing my python-print tray with “chrome” handles {see more photos here} from Home Goods last week…. I’ve wanted to see what other accessories and…
Hello lovelies! Thank you allf or the sweet birthday wishes- I feel so loved! I hope you all had a chance to see the new collaboration with photographer Jennifer Coffey on the blog yesterday. Seriously beautiful photos- If I may say so…
In the thick of planning a trip for a client to Italy, I always get so excited to experience some of my favorite destinations, all over again, through their eyes. It also happens to be one of my favorite destinations for a solo trip; a surrender to the senses, to la bellezza in all its forms. The Italians just do it right. Mentally revisiting some of my favorite spots in this itinerary, including an idyllic stay in Porto Santo Stefano.
One of the more relaxing weekends I’ve had in a long time. A reminder that they shouldn’t be so sporadic and few in between. As I slowly ease into the new year, and in an effort to return to the joy of writing, there’s a new post on welcoming 2024 - how I’m planning on filling my cup this month, what I’m looking forward to and more simply put, a monthly check-in with myself and with all of you. x
I’ve been holding on to our wedding photos like a secret note in my pocket I just wasn’t ready to share quite yet. I wanted to hold on to the feeling a bit longer, before the moment felt fleeting.
After endless months of planning, weekly budgeting and saving, all the stress, our wedding day was a beautiful coming together of cultures, traditions and worlds. We were showered with love from near and far and we never lost sight of what this day was truly about – celebrating our unexpected love story. A story we will continue to celebrate.
Sharing with you today a small and intimate look at one of the happiest moments of our life together. I really do feel so very lucky to call this man my husband.
Thank you to @nicolettazarifi for capturing our special day on film and to @feelyourfilms for bringing them to life in a video we’ll cherish forever.

I spent the last week back in Chicago after two long years and while I crammed in way too much in 10 short days, I left feeling recharged and at peace...
I got to spend time with my mom and stepdad, even though it`s always too short and too fast; rented my apartment to a lovely couple; saw friends I haven`t seen in years and hit up most of my favorite spots including eating an excessive amount of Chipotle. Chicago weather behaved for us and even put on a fabulous Fall show, my favorite time of year.
And while I know the reasons why I chose to leave Chicago, it doesn`t mean that it`s not still a very important part of my life and of who I am. It seems, sometimes you need to leave home to truly find yourself. I was able to share all these amazing moments, in my (other) city, in our other home, with my husband, family and friends. I know how blessed I am and I never take this life I`ve built for granted.
A small ode to my other city, sweet home Chicago!

Proud to have been able to pen this piece for @hello_going as @airserbia rolls out their first direct flights between Serbia`s capital city of Belgrade and the "Windy City" - and my hometown of Chicago -after a 30-year hiatus.
While this article is meant to act as a comprehensive guide to flying Air Serbia; it is also a nod to Air Serbia’s long history and authentic culture and cuisine making it an affordable and competitive option when looking to hop the pond.
Finally got around to writing the first - of many - posts on Morocco while taking gardening tips from the beautiful Le Jardin Secret - a lush, green oasis in the heart of the medina in Marrakech. #mangogirls
