Christkindlmarket Chicago

Every winter Chicago does it's own version of a German Christmas market in a pavillion downtown. It's set up to look like a European village with little wooden stalls that sell crafts and  German food and drinks. This woman fits right in, looking part hansel and gretel with her scarf beautifully draped over her head, and part soldier with her green overcoat and amazing leather mittens.

Let it Snow!

I spotted this lovely lady coming out of the very cool boutique Sarca in the Gold Coast. The over-size buttons on this coat are beautiful and I absolutely LOVE her boots. The fact that she is wearing them while out shopping on the icy street demonstrates a true commitment to fashion. Soldier on sister!
