Art Expo Glam Squad

Expo Chicago was this past weekend and man was it cool. Entering its fourth edition in 2015, it presented artwork from hundreds of the worlds leading galleries showcasing there best works. I attended the opening night as well as a couple of events throught the weekend. I ran into Janet Mandel blogger at Fashionaholic and founder of the luxury diaper bag company Mia Bossi, blogger Elina Casell and the always delightful PR maven Monika Dixon on the opening night looking amazing. Janet's french pony tail is a work of art in it's own right! Thank you Ali Stone for the glamourous photos, take a look at more of her work here.

Expo Chicago is happening all weekend with hundreds of the worlds premier galleries showing the best work from their archives. One word GO🏃🏻🏃🏽🏃🏾🏃🏿 @expochicago @randcompanynyc #expochicago #expogram

Emily and Her Emoji Party

Emily is hands down the most fashionable lady I work with. I remember the first time I saw her riding the elevators, I had never spoken a word to her, but I vowed right then and there to get her on the blog. Fast forward a couple of months & here we are. She really delivers in an emoji sweat suit that she picked up at a Pilsen fashion emporium & those silver Nike Sky Hi Dunks (similar style here)

There has never been a more appropriate subject for my insta feed. Follow along with me at TresAwesome I always follow back ;)

Emoji party with @emilyluiz at the @mcachicago 👍🌴💦😍 Just can't stay away...

The Best Looks of North Coast 2015

North Coast Music Festival was this weekend in Union Park. I can't think of a better way to celebrate Labor Day and close out the summer than with D'angelo and the Roots ripping it up on stage. Of course, the kids brought their fashion A-Game (notice there is an actual child in this album). All of the amazing concert photos were taken by my boo Scott Drasler. You can follow along with him on instagram at PartlylineChi

Ric Wilson is making the most of the last moment of Summer White. Check out his latest track here.

Laine and Derek Berry - the most stylish parents at North Coast. Ok maybe they were one of the very few familial units in attendance, but how freakin' ADORABLE is this lil' hipster family?!
