For those of you who follow me on Twitter and/or Instagram you may have already caught on to the fact that following the Hamptons, my guy and I took off for a cross country road trip. It all started as a spontaneous idea (we needed to get his truck back to California from New York) and has quickly turned into one of my favorite vacations. Here are a few highlights from this past weekend in Chicago. We thoroughly enjoyed the city and thank you again to those who gave me recommendations. I'll be sharing more photos from our drive westward soon!
Buckingham Fountain.
Obligatory photo op at the bean.
Leopard on leopard action (Shoe Mint Heels and Zara Pants).
And the winner's of the Revlon giveaway are: Cay, SK, Alyssa DeYonker, Jen, Elizabeth D., Liz Mclean, Bamaannie, Erika Gregory, Melanie, Camilla Delacoe. I will email you soon!

Fabulous pics! I drove cross country from MD to Cali and it was brutal! (Nothing glamerous about it) but the pics we took and things we saw were amazing! It makes for a lifetime of memories so treasure them =)
Love the cheetah print pants! So jealous of your trip, I've always wanted to travel across the country. Have fun! :)
Keep calm and carry lipstick.
LOVE Chicago! You can see my old building in your last photo. I miss it but got the opportunity to visit last month. How'd you find the "second" city? Hope you loved it as much as I do!

Chicago! My parents met there and my entire life all I've heard about is how wonderful Chicago is compared to LA. I went last fall for the first time...and I knew I forgot to visit something! Buckingham Fountain, how could I have missed you? Did you have an italian beef sandwich while you were there? Ah-mah-zing!
Alicia! I'm so excited for you - what a fun vacation! I'm also eagerly anticipating the coverage of all the cities you'll be visiting while on this journey. It will be such a great way for us to "travel" the USA through your eyes. Have lots of fun and safe travels!
