What I Wore - Free People Crochet Top

Don't you just love it when you receive a gift that is completely "you"? One that you wouldn't even think of returning? I know I do. And this week, I received a graduation gift from my boyfriend's family that I absolutely loved - two Free People tops and a printed tote by George Gina & Lucy (a brand I'd never heard of before but imagine I will love in the future!). All falling under the same color palette, they are my ideal summer picks - so much that I wore/used them all the very next day (and the next)! Here are some pics of a couple different ways I wore the Free People wildflower crochet tank.

Thanks Loebig family!

Christmas Fashion

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

After a long hiatus (my sincerest apologies), here are some snapshots from a Christmas party with my friends. Not only was it so great to see all my friends I've been missing so much, it was a chance for everyone to break out the festive attire (and in my case, the red lipstick too)!

Camille, me, Lex and Brooke. Isn't Lex's dress amazing? She bought it in Paris while studying abroad this past semester.

Me and Brooke with the accessories I bought her! On me: headband, Nordstrom; necklace, American Eagle; sweater, Topshop; belt, Urban Outfitters; dress worn as a skirt, American Apparel; tights, Hue.

Camille and I:)

Terrible picture of my face - this was unexpectedly taken. Shoes, Urban Outfitters.

Brooke showing off her gift: Hat, Urban Outfitters; clutch, BCBGeneration.

All five of us - ready for our annual gift exchange!

Morgan and Camille.

My boyfriend - Jason, and one of my best friends - Morgan.

Alexis, Morgan and Camille. So great to be back with them!

The hostess and I:)

Here are some pics from different gatherings over break. I love that everyone puts some effort into dressing during the holidays. Even the boys look good:) 

 

The boys at our local bar, Tracy's. Dave, Sam, Mark, Bruce and Jason (wearing Dave's hat as a joke because it's WAYY to big for him.)

Me, Brooke and Allison downtown at my sister's apartment. On me: necklace and blouse, Urban Outfitters.

My sister, Caitlin, and I at John Barleycorn in Lincoln Park in Chicago.

The Urban Outfitters shirt I'm wearing in the picture above - amazing open back with bow detailing.
