A month ago, Amy of Chicago Street Style needed to snap some photos with this Michael Kors bag and I’m always down to be photographed by Amy. The bag went perfectly with the outfit I was wearing to shop in, so I quickly swapped out the vintage Chanel bag I was using to this hefty bag and I loved how the photos turned out.
I also thought it was perfect timing to share these photos right outside my old apartment on Madison where I could look out my window to Harpo Studios and see the pretty buildings of downtown Chicago everyday on my way to work. I’ve really enjoyed my time in Chicago, but it’s time for me to pack up and go! I’ve accepted a new position that takes me back to Michigan. I’m really going to miss my friends and my co-workers at Band Digital, but the timing was perfect for me to return to the government agency I very much enjoyed working at and this time, with much more responsibility as the chief communications officer. I plan on being back in the windy city a lot though, friends!
