We love that Midwest Style Bloggers continue to inspire us with their gorgeous and unique fashions. We're loving Kimbrilee of The Native's beautiful photos and perfectly fall fashions. These series of photos are beyond dreamy and look straight out of a magazine spread. Thanks for sharing your fall look with us!

“When you pull up, it’s girls in crazy expensive outfits, and everyone is dressed so unique. Personal style is everywhere. I remember walking up to Lincoln Center and having to take a deep breath.” -Katelyn

Guest Post: Pink & Navy Stripes

The lovely Lindsay of Pink & Navy Stripes is sharing a little pink inspiration with us today to honor Breast Cancer awareness month in October. Not only does she look gorgeous - but she's rockin' pink for a very worthy cause! Read her story and check out a few of her favorite pieces.

Shirt: Gap , Jeans: J Brand, Booties:  Splendid, Sunnies: Tory Burch

I love wearing pink, especially in the month of October since it's Breast Cancer awareness month.  My grandmother passed away when I was 15 from Breast Cancer.  She fought hard and did it with the utmost class.  After she was widowed and remarried to my second Grandpa, almost her whole house was pink! It was by far her favorite color.  I mean who doesn't want a pink chiffon couch right???  So today I'm rocking a pink polka dot top in that spirit!

Guest Post: Whatever She's Got

We're thrilled to have the lovely Chelsea from Whatever She's Got as our guest blogger today! We love how Chelsea mixed so many gorgeous fall trends together {and who doesn't love that pretty pink hat?} If you haven't read Chelsea's blog, make sure to check it out - it will soon become a daily read!

Plaid normally gives me flashbacks to my Catholic high school days. It makes me think of starchy button up shirts and itchy wool sweaters, but this oh so chic take on plaid has a hint of sexy. When paired with accessories with gold details and a classic fedora, the look is anything but schoolgirl.

Guest Post: 2 Girls in Two Cities

We're thrilled to have the fabuous ladies of 2 Girls in 2 Cities sharing the cutest Halloween craft with us this Friday! We first met Amanda and Jennie {who co-write the blog} at our Chicago Bloggers Brunch, and now we're big fans of their adorable blog. Check it out if you're not obsessed already :)

Last Friday after work, my friend Natalie and I decided to have a little pumpkin date. We stopped at Trader Joe's - which has a bunch of affordable pumpkins, if you're still looking - and picked up our mini pumpkins to decorate, along with some pumpkin flavored treats for dinner. It was a great, and affordable, night (wine included), and we are already talking about the next holiday themed craft night we can plan. Handprint turkeys, anyone?


We kept it simple - just glitter and modge podge. I made each pumpkin different, and I was thrilled with the results! They add a little sparkle to my fall decor, and finally gave me a reason to use all of the craft glitter that I seem to be hoarding.
