We're one day away from September- did you realize that? With changing seasons comes changing wardrobes and changing mentalities, and I just don't know that I'm ready for it yet! Where did the time go?
In an attempt to hold onto the lazy, sunny vibe of summer I'm playing beach-y, loung-y music while at work. It's making me think of amazing vacations from my past, and crave one for the near future. Costa Rica may be on my horizon which makes it allllll better... that and my current obsession with maxi skirts and wedges will soon transfer into midi skirts and heels- that's also something that can make the changing season better!
Did you notice the bow tie I snuck in there? Kind of obsessed currently- another must for fall in my book!
TONIGHT- The Junior League of Chicago's Summer Soirée! I've got a lot to get through at work before heading over to the Chicago History Museum to help set up. Tickets are almost sold out for the event, so I hope you already got yours!
A little brass inspired diddy to help the time pass until later...
Try to catch me if you're heading there tonight... I'll be the girl in the photo booth an obnoxious number of times. Enjoy one more weekend of outdoor fabulosity as the Summer winds down friends!
Tibi definitely makes some of my favorite dresses out there- and my latest browse through the site didn't disappoint one iota! I often dream of days when my closet will be full of all the glorious prints Tibi offers and get excited!
I'm definitely stalking that amazing blue outfit- it might have to find it's way into my closet this fall. Did I mention there are also pants in that pattern!?! Kiiiiind of amaze. I didn't even attempt to touch the Tibi coats and fur items... I'm thinking a full post devoted to the fur pieces I love this fall/winter season is a must sometime soon...
What do you think- do you love Tibi as much as I do?
Last week was spent putting fires out at work, and this week won't be much different I'm afraid... except for one major thing. The Junior League of Chicago's Summer Soirée is this Friday! I have been on the committee planning the event and was thrilled when we decided on a Great Gatsby themed event. While the event doesn't lend itself to full on costumes, "Jazz Age Cocktail" is definitely encouraged. While I didn't go as "jazz-y" as I originally had planned, I found a beautiful Tibi dress that just spoke to me- you can't ignore that can you!?!
So if you're looking for a fabulous, young and fun charity event to attend as your summer winds down come to the Chicago History Museum this Friday at 8pm. I promise it will be a night to remember!
Until then- some Gatsby inspiration for you! I'm thinking I should watch the movie sometime this week to prepare as well... care to join me?
So I'm kind of obsessed with the cover of "Watch the Throne" (Jay-Z and Kanye's collaborative album that came out August 8th) - I'm a sucker for anything gold and shiny. I think I need to listen to the album a few more times, but currently this is my favorite song, "Gotta Have It":
