I’m sure you hear this a lot, but Chicagoans cherish the summer. We have just a few months of sun, beaches and outdoor dining before the winter sets in again. So we’ve really got to do all we can to enjoy it! I’m lucky enough this summer to live in a building with a pool. I’ve tried to schedule my weekend activities around that. Other friends have rooftops and are kind enough to host us over to enjoy the views. I recently went to a cookout with a backdrop of the Willis Tower, and I wanted to wear something lightweight to transition from day to night. I reached for this blue maxi dress from The Limited. It’s been on repeat since I purchased it during a 50% off sale.

I’m visiting The Limited a lot more recently because of its great deals and fun prints! Have you seen their lemon print clothing? The midi skirt in that fabric is on my list to get next. (I think we have to thank Beyonce for helping promoting one of the cutest fruits!) In my most recent shopping trip, I also picked up a new pair of metallic sandals from WHBM. They reminded me of something I could wear by the pool and then also for a casual night out. Here’s the story of how I chose the Odette double ring.
Shopping for new summer clothes aside, there’s obviously a lot more to be done over the next few months. Namely, soak up warmth and sunshine! You can find me by the pool or a rooftop. What are your plans this summer?
