Alana in Wicker Park
I love Alana’s interesting mix of accessories. The feather earrings and bright tie-die scarf paired with this otherwise basic outfit is really interesting. She got the scarf on while on a recent trip to Spain to visit her boyfriend. What a lucky girl! ...

Lena in Two-Tone Shoes
What can I say, these socks and shoes are a match made in heaven. It’s a perfect example of the mixed patterned mania that is so popular right now. Overall Lena looks adorable in this intrepid pre-spring outfit. I hope her big scarf is keeping her warm because...

Jazmine on Honore
Jazmine is a shop girl in Wicker Park. She looks incredibly cool and beautiful in these multi-hoop earrings and puffer coat with her tightly shorn blond hair. I love how she has taken a basic, utilitarian outfit and made it extraordinary with these earrings and towering sheep skin boots. ...

Chris in Vintage Mink
This outfit is a perfect combination of the understated and flamboyant. The dramatic fur hat and military coat (which look like they might have come from the same uniform!) and the understated jeans and boots. Pure winter harmony. ...

Lexi on Michigan Ave.
I love the Russian feel to this ensemble! I took this picture of Lexi on one of the coldest days to date in Chicago. She is wearing stockings, but still, you’ve got to give it up to this woman for a DEEP commitment to this sexy...

Christkindlmarket Chicago
Every winter Chicago does it’s own version of a German Christmas market in a pavillion downtown. It’s set up to look like a European village with little wooden stalls that sell crafts and German food and drinks. This woman fits right in, looking part Hansel and...

Rainy Day in Wicker Park
I ran into this beauty as she was coming out of my favorite coffee shop, The Worm Hole (they have a Delorean in the window and the coffee is delicious). I love her whole look, the motorcycle boots, the hooded faux fur piece and the weird flip mittens. The...
