Outfitted: The Ants Go Marching...

Hi lovelies! I hope everyone survived the first day back to work after the long weekend. Not much to talk about today, I feel as if I've droned on and on about DCT and I packing, moving, and unpacking; and unfortunately that's the only exciting thing going on in my life right now, haha!

What I can talk about is today's outfit :) As I mentioned in a previous post, I've become obsessed with, what I call, micro-animal prints. I love the optical illusion, from far away you see just a printed top, but up close...are those ants on your shirt? Why yes, yes they are :) I bought this shirt a few weeks ago during Anthropologie's Semi-Annual Clearance sale and couldn't wait to style it. Its so playful and quirky and adds just the right amount of personality, I mean how many people are walking around with tiny ants on their shirt? :)

'Till Next Time...

Crossroads Trading Co. Spring Shopping Party!

Hi everyone!

So who doesn't love getting designer goods at a (significant) discount? I know I don't have thousands of $$$ just laying around for me to drop on a designer dress/bag/shoe. I also love the excitement of scoring a great deal on something that I probably couldn't afford at regular retail price. This is where Crossroads Trading Co. and their Spring Shopping Party come into the picture...

This Thursday, April 12 from 7:30-9:30PM the Wicker Park Crossroads will be having an after hours shopping event where we'll be rolling out racks of designer items we've kept hidden for a couple of months to let customers shop, shop, shop! When I say designer items, I'm talking about some really great labels including:

Tory Burch
Marc Jacobs
Diane von Furstenberg
3.1 Philip Lim
Rachel Roy
Alice + Olivia
BCBG
Elizabeth + James
All Saints

...And these are only a sample of the designer items we have tucked away waiting for you to take home :) For my Chicago readers, if you love a great deal this event is for you! I'll be there, so if anything, come by and say 'hi'! There will also be some light refreshments and a raffle, so maybe you can score some store credit to apply towards any awesome designer items you scoop up.
