Oh hi… I'm home!
Here are a few highlights from the weekend… 8 hours of driving means catching up on new reads, like Design*Sponge at Home
. It also means stopping for coffee and brunch at Half & Half in St.Louis on the way! Renegade was amazing this year. We had so much fun meeting some of you, and taking photobooth pics too! TopShop & Free People inspired us a lot. Such amazing stores. We enjoyed a long relaxing day of shopping. Ben & Jerry's and blog time with my bestie was so much fun. Cupcakes for breakfast are ok every once in a blue moon. By the way, the peach cobbler cupcake at Mollie's in Chicago is worth writing home about….. sooooo good! And a little snapshot of St. Louis on our way home. We had so many great conversations. It's good to be home. My mind is rested, inspired and ready to start something new! ♥ elsie

I loved following your Renegade weekend on Instagram! I can’t wait to do the same at all the craft shows I go to this year-it’s so much easier to capture little snippets of the day with a fancy phone rather than drag out the big, bulky camera! Can’t wait to see what your new inspiration brings! 🙂
you might want to have a wee peek over here!
just for fun.

I’m from Memphis and have driven that drive from Chicago. Gotta love leaving Chicago and seeing the sign, Memphis 533 miles. Love road trips and cupcakes for breakfast are always alright!

Glad you made it back! And I’ve heard Mollie’s is amazing! Wish I made it to Topshop! xo
These pictures are adorable! For some reason, they look like a movie :).
I’ve been to the States a few times but I’ve never been to Chicago, but everyone has been telling me I should go…ah if only money and time were a little easier to come across!
Also, I love fairs (your pictures really convey the atmosphere by the way) and I try to do at least one every month…do you maybe have any tips for a succesful fair (for those who sell I mean)?
Thanks!
Love all of these pics, Love Chicago! It’s where I got proposed to 🙂 <3
Agreed on the peach cobbler, the cookie monster is even better!!
And I lovvvve Half & Half.
I love that plaid dress!
it must be nice to have a bunch of rad girls to hang/work with
These photos are so beautiful, love chicago!
