We were invited down to Chicago for a stay at Hotel Lincoln last weekend. I’ll let you know more about the hotel next week, but I first wanted to share our recommendations for a weekend in The Windy City.

Wanderlust: The Upper Peninsula

We’ve been meaning to go up to my parents’ house all summer and finally made the trek to Northern Wisconsin last weekend. It was the perfect excuse to continue north to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula on Saturday. (We were just a hop, skip and a jump away, after all.) We spent the day exploring Houghton, stopping at a couple of breweries and taking a walk along Agate Beach on Lake Superior.

Trip Planning: Chicago

I couldn’t resist a generous offer from Hotel Lincoln to spend a couple of nights in The Windy City next weekend. We’re planning to snap touristy photos at The Bean, go on the Ferris wheel, dine at The J. Parker, take an architecture boat tour and try a few new-to-me beers at The Bad Apple. What else should we add to our must-do list?

Lately, I’m Loving…

…a relaxing stop at the Great Dane beer garden in downtown Madison. After years of living here, I’m embarrassed to admit that I didn’t even know about this oasis until Dave mentioned it. It was a welcome way to refuel during last weekend’s Art Fair on the Square.

Inspire It | Wear It

June 26, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

I’ve never been to England, but I hope that all bars in London look as elegant as The Luggage Room. It’s the perfect inspiration for a jetsetter ensemble that’s as comfortable as it is chic.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
