 {gifted banana republic maxi dress, gifted banana republic button down, forever 21 ring, forever 21 handbag, michael kors watch, vintage necklace, revlon orange flip lipstick}

the weather in chicago this week has been absolutely beautiful. which worked out quite nicely as i don't think i could have waited much longer to wear this banana republic printed maxi. the soft colors and pretty print make it the perfect spring dress. and it's easily one of the comfiest things i own. to make it a bit more work appropriate i paired it with a knotted button down - also great for when the temps dip a bit at night. 

next thursday, i'm so excited (and flattered) to be hosting banana republic's after 5 event at chicago's flagship store (744 n michican ave.), along with anna jane from see jane . i hope you'll stop by to check out their lovely spring selection and say hi! plus its 25% off your purchase and they'll be raffling off a memorial day trip for 2 to LA! and who doesn't need a little (free) getaway?

have a great weekend ladies and hopefully see some of you next week!
