Kelly in the city

I'm so excited to be sharing our mini guide to Newport, Rhode Island tonight! Because we did a lot, I'm going to break it up by day. Let's jump in!

Back with 10+ Things 6/20 to share the first things that come to mind this morning. Better Streets Chicago, our Father's Day, and more!

For Christmas, my aunt and uncle gave the whole family tickets to the Nantucket Wine Festival. I mentioned this in a recent post, but sadly, much of the family couldn’t make it… including my aunt and uncle, haha. So much came up, from trips to Europe and weddings on the Jersey Shore to graduate school restraints and work obligations. (We missed you, Patrick, Danny, Kim and Mitch!) Still,

We switch back and forth from going on way too many trips, to not nearly enough. Either way, we honestly love the feelings of that magical fist day on trip. Here are the details from day one of our trip to Naples, Florida.

Roadtripper Jeans, eyelet top, plus more classics that you can mix and match well. Comfy and easy. Here's everything you need to know.

We're having a pretty rainy weekend here in Chicago so I thought it would be nice to share some cozy rainy day home inspiration photos.

I’ve spent a lot of time reading and learning over the last couple of weeks, which I feel is of the utmost importance right now. (And always. I recently read Between the World and Me and was so moved by it. More below.) But as I ease back into blogging while looking at life through a different lens, I thought I’d do one of those “10 Things” posts, or whatever I called them back in the day–in which I’d write about the first 10 things that come to mind at 11:30 pm.

Loafers are one of my go-to pairs of shoes in the fall. Here are three ideas on how to wear loafers this season.

Make sure you get it all! Last day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is upon us. Find out when the last day of the NSALE is and which items you need to buy before the sale ends.

Another amazing find! The J.Crew Dover Blazer is great. It’s wrinkle-resistant and flattering. I love that it dresses up a casual outfit and provides some warmth, too. Great for the fall, but also year-round.

Hi, Kelly! I have a technical question. I am brand new at blogging and have so much to learn, but I noticed that you have some collages posted up on your blog, and I was wondering how you create them. I really want to post my own wedding pics onto my blog in a nice collage layout but so far I haven’t really been able to figure out how to do this.

My all-time favorite articles of clothing—the Madewell Herringbone Coat—is back in sweater coat form, and on major sale. Here are the details.

I have a new Amazon dress for you today! You will love this Flannel Amazon Dress as much as I do. It works well for fall and the holidays.

Sharing the most adorable Navy Scalloped Dress on the blog today! See how to style this dress plus why I love it so much. If you're looking for preppy fashion inspiration this post is a must read.

Discover Boating invited us to book a sailing excursion in Lake Michigan with Chicago Sailboat Charters. Sharing the experience below!

Aaaaand we’re back! I feel all over the place right now, but here are the first things that come to mind this morning!
