In need of heat

I am currently in the need of heat. That Indiana Spring that I'm always spouting off about is letting me down. These brisk temps and ridiculous wind is not making my heart happy. On a different note, I also need heat from an iron! Look at my skirt, yikes. Oh well, nothing fits anymore and I have to attempt to be professional at work, so what can a girl do. I love this combo and if the skirt didn't look like it came straight out of the bottom of my hamper, I'd be happier with it. Orange and Navy is one of those perfect color combos, some artsy person could explain this in depth, but I just love the way they look together! 

Enjoy your Thursday!

Living in Indulgence

Saturday was one of those totally indulgent (regret later) kind of days. I spent the day with my favorite and we had a delicious brunch at Delicia, they're basically our new Zest. I had the smoked salmon fritatta and ate it so quickly that I forget to snap a pic! Later we played pool at Bent Rail Brewery and to keep adding to the indulgence we went to Naked Tchopstix for our favorite appetizer and dinner at the Alley Cat Front Room. Phew, I'm exhausted and full just recapping that! Anyhow, my look for all these shenanigans was as follows. 

Rocking the rockstud

I love my job, but working in non-profit isn't well known for bringing in major dough. This is all fine with me until I laid eyes on those Valentino rockstud pumps that rocked (pun intended) the blogging and fashion world last year. These puppies were around $1,000!!! Yeeeaahhh...too rich for my blood. You can only imagine my delight at finding these BCBGeneration knock offs for a meer $80! I'm absolutely in love and now I can rock the studs with the best of them!

Mint-condition

Sorry for the late post! I had an unbelievable weekend celebrating the Bride to be! We went to a cubs game then dinner and bars in Chicago. Everything was just perfect! Today's look is a simple cute work look. I found this adorable mint overlay top at Loft, it has been a great piece for layering! I wore it recently with a pretty coral tank underneath, it was a great color contrast. Currently none of my work pants fit, so I opted for my new culottes! These babies are great for work and fun, the length is perfect and they fit perfectly!

Woah..my eyes!

I'm obsessing over this neon bag I got from my recent LeTote! The pictures do not do it justice on how bright it is, in the words of my friend hannah, "whoa, it hurts my eyes" haha. Sometimes fashion is pain, right? I will probably hold this item back and pretend like my account won't be charged, healthy?

Everyone: "Hi, Abby."

STEAL that trend: Midi Skirt

I love the midi skirt! It's the perfect piece to go from day to night. I made a compilation of pieces to create one DAY look and one NIGHT look with this gorgeous floral midi skirt from choies.com and every item is under $150! Most of the items are under $50, except that gorgeous pale blue leather wallet is $148, but I couldn't part with it!

What's your favorite Spring trend this year??

Fabletics Review

Since I obviously have a thing about fashion I can' t pass up the chance to try cute workout clothes. I've been going to yoga more often recently and everyone there looks like they waltzed right out of Namaste magazine, sooo, I needed to up my game in the fitness wear department. I was referred to Fabletics by my co-worker and I am currently obsessed!! I got a few super comfy and chic outfits to round out my workout gear. I love this one, because the top can be worn for working out or swap out the pants and I'm ready to go out for the night, however counterproductive that sounds I like it! The pattern on the pants are adorable and the best part, they're not see through! Can I get a hallelujah?

Sunday Funday

I had such an exceptional weekend filled with fun, food, family, and friends. All the F's anyone really needs, right? Aaron and I got to spend Sunday morning with our good friends who just got engaged!! I'm so happy for them, they are the world's sweetest couple and deserve a lifetime of happiness. We indulged in some Spanish-American Brunch at a new-ish joint called Delicia. I had the huevos benedicto, with a chipotle hollandaise!! Yum! It was so delicious!! This look was the perfect combo to feel comfortable and casual for this beautiful Spring day. I love the color of this light infinity scarf and thought it would be the only color I needed for the day and paired with neutrals! 

Happy Monday everyone,
