J.Crew Majesty Peacoat :: Bedknobs & Baubles

Remember those warm days a few weeks ago where I could get away with spring outfits like this and this? I wish that were still the case! Back in June when I booked our Hamilton tickets, I thought that March would mean we could wear spring jackets during our weekend in Chicago. Nope. Instead, I was back in winter wear bemoaning the fact that icy weather seems to last entirely too long in the Midwest! Either way, it was a fun weekend escape to the Windy City. The main event, of course, was finally seeing Hamilton and it’s worth all of the hype. Honestly, I can’t even begin to describe just how incredible it was and if you have the chance to go, definitely do so. Other than that, we ate, drank, and shopped our way through the city. I snagged this dress at Zara, which isn’t the most flattering, but the ruffled bodice was just too fun to pass up. It’ll be coming with me to New Orleans at the end of the week!

The Blues

Loft Swing Anorak

My NCAA bracket was a mess after the tournament’s first weekend, but I was somewhat comforted by Wisconsin’s pair of wins that landed them in the Sweet Sixteen. After their frustrating loss on Friday, I threw in the bracket on the rest of the college basketball season and turned my attention to my latest sartorial win: this adorable swing anorak coat from LOFT. As I mentioned earlier, I had been on the lookout for a spring coat that I could bring on our trip. (In ten short days! Holy moly!) I tried couple of trench coats (this and this) and wasn’t keen on either one of them. The fits weren’t great on me and I didn’t love the style enough to keep trying different trench coats, so I switched gears and started looking at anoraks when I came across this swing style from LOFT. It has a sueded finish and is lined with a knit jersey material. I love the youthful swing silhouette that allows for plenty of room at the hips. It doesn’t look sloppy, though, thanks to the cinched back waist that can be adjusted with a drawstring inside.

Madewell Gingham Dress, Redux

Madewell Gingham Dress

This dress is definitely growing on me. I wore it for the second time last weekend (here’s the first round) for a rainy Sunday of visiting open houses (including the prettiest home from the late 1800s that we would have considered if it wasn’t so far away from Madison). The weather was terrible and only one photo made the cut, but sometimes that’s all you need!

Gingham Girl

Madewell Gingham Dress

Another week, another dress I’m likely packing for our upcoming trip. (Which is coming up in 24 days, but who’s counting?) I’m completely on the fence about this dress, though. One one hand, it’s incredibly comfortable (so soft!) and easy to pull on for weekend wear. On the other hand, it’s a bit too tomboy for my usual tastes. If you spring for it, it does run true to size and I’d recommend adding a slip underneath for extra coverage when you sit down (the space between the buttons can gap open if you’re not careful).

Monkeying Around

Monkeying-Around-6

If you’ve followed my blog for any length of time, you’ll know that I don’t particularly enjoy wearing pants — and it’s especially true in the winter. I rely on a uniform of skirts or dresses, tights, and wellies to keep my real shoes safe from precipitation and road salt. I know Hunter boots get a lot of criticism for being worn in colder months. And, no, rubber isn’t exactly the warmest material. However, when they’re paired with thick hiking socks (and a short walk to the car from my apartment and office), they’re really not that bad for a Wisconsin winter.

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊
