First post of the year! I hope you guys had a wonderful start to 2020. On our end, we had a really nice and chill holiday season. It was nice to not have any plans, just lounge at home and count down to the New Year.

On a related note, I am one to almost never indulge in self care. This year, I’ve made the decision to pamper myself whenever I can. Giving myself time to work out and to enjoy a facial every other month plus hanging out and having more fun times with my girlfriends. For me, it always seems easier to do all of these things during a slow period/month but when work gets little busier I might lose sight of that. So I have to make the effort to keep that in mind when things get hectic! I’m sure a lot of you guys out there know what I’m talking about. Work and family can take so much out of us that we neglect ourselves.

Although I feel like perhaps on top of sharing countless outfit posts on IG and the blog, maybe I should start documenting my downtime/self care activities a little more and that might get me to take it easy now and then. Do you guys have trouble switching off too?

Hi guys! Sharing a look we shot in Grand Rapids a couple of weeks ago. Fall in Michigan is something else! We were actually driving to Grand Rapids from Chicago where we got to spend a couple days at one of our favorite properties, The Peninsula Chicago. I really recommend that drive because it is just beautiful along Lake Michigan with tons of little towns and main streets along the way.

While Chicago was all about experiencing the city and getting in some shoots, Grand Rapids was about family. The Mister and I have been wanting to visit his Uncle Alfred and Auntie Judy as well as his cousins for a while now but schedules always got in the way. I guess it was meant to be because when we finally got the dates locked in, it coincided with Auntie Judy’s birthday so everyone was heading up to Grand Rapids anyway!

We also spent a day in Lansing to see the most amazing house Reuben’s cousin and his wife bought a couple of years ago. It used to be a firehouse that they have put some hard work into and it already looks amazing! Plus, they kept the pole! They still have a few more plans that they are working on and we can’t wait to go back to see it completed.

Needless to say, we loved our time in Michigan. It really reminded us how lucky we are when we were celebrating together and I will always be thankful for that.

I firmly believe that you can find art in almost everything. It doesn’t just exist in traditional channels like paintings or music. It can show itself in so many other ways and The Peninsula Chicago takes hospitality to such a level that it becomes an art form!

The Mister and I took a long overdue trip to Chicago at the beginning of October and we were lucky enough to call The Peninsula Chicago our home during our time in the city. We were last here when The Peninsula Chicago invited us to celebrate their 15th birthday and that was certainly a party we will never forget! So naturally, we were very excited to return and experience that one of a kind Peninsula hospitality again.

Outfit 1: Orange Sweater / Yellow Satin Skirt / Brown suede pumps

During our previous stay, I raved about how beautiful and inspiring it is with artwork all over the property and also how amazing our suite was. Our most recent visit was no exception and you can read all about the amazing tech that puts control of the entire suite at your fingertips here. And like before, the gorgeous views are just to die for! But there is a new side to The Peninsula Chicago and a new way to take in that iconic skyline.

The Peninsula Chicago is now home to one of the best rooftop bar experiences in the city, Z Bar! Every facet from the cocktails to the food to the decor has been obsessed over to ensure a one of a kind experience. For instance, The “Old Fashioned” (The Mister’s drink of course) features a young walnut instead of a cherry. Reuben was all about that! My drink called “True North”, is a vodka concoction with little jelly bubbles that burst in your mouth! Plus the little hibiscus leaf is not just a garnish, it is also edible. These ingenious twists come from the brilliant mind of Vlad Novikov, Director of Cocktails and Culture who has definitely put his background in chemistry to good use.

We had the pleasure of chatting with Vlad for a few minutes as he graciously came over to ensure we were having a great time and he mentioned how his cocktails are his way of creating art. We couldn’t agree more and while Vlad is a credit to The Peninsula, he is no exception. Every single staff member from the moment you walk into the property to the housekeeping staff are focused on making you comfortable. Indeed, “art” is the word I would choose if I had describe The Peninsula experience in a syllable and we are so thankful to have had the chance to enjoy it immensely.

One of my favorite looks from the Tailored Trend was the above outfit. Starting from the striped dress to the pretty, bold lips. Side swept wavy hair, paired with the crimson red pumps complete a look that is perfect for fall. If you are following me on Instagram, you know I managed to snatch a pair of these pumps a few days ago
