Hello! I was able to spend the last handful of days in Chicago with my best friends and it was the best.

The Midwest heat and humidity was a bit of a shock as it's been over a year since I last experienced it, but fortunately these shakes at Intelligentsia came in clutch on more than one occasion.

Sharing a few photos from my time there and some recommendations for the city.


GasLight Coffee, Stan’s Donuts, Chicken & Farm Shop, The Hoxton, Pacific Standard Time, Asrai Garden, Lonesome Rose, The Berkshire Room, Parson’s Chicken & Fish, EZ Inn, Heritage Bicycles, Bellemore, Lost Larson, Ipsento, Proxi, Daisies, Plein Air Café, Doughnut Vault, Metric Coffee Co, Soho House, CC Ferns, Gather Home + Lifestyle, The Allis, Antique Taco, Bang Bang, Longman & Eagle, Una Mae’s.



I’m very into my rose gold watch from The Fifth Watches. The brand only sell their watches for a few days out of each month so be sure to grab one while you can.

Hopped off the train after getting in just after the sun came up and this was the first house I saw.

We finished off the world’s hottest day with a trip to the waterfront.
