Hello, hello! After a week of amazing adventures in
Chicago, I am now aware that cities indeed
can be as cool as London (hehe). I had such
a wonderful time wandering around this city
with my boyfriend and a few good friends.
I went to museums, parks, stayed in two different
amazing hotels, saw friends I have missed dearly,
did the tourist thing, did the not-so-tourist thing, shopped,
and music!
I brought two roles of film with me, one black&white,
and one color. Here are a few to share with you all
before I start the grueling process of packing up
my apartment to move into my new house (yay)
on Saturday!
Once I get settled, I will be a good blogger
again :)
3D exhibit at the Chicago Art Institute. This covered an
entire wall.
view from my hotel one night
Don't be alarmed, Chicago is not in ruins! One night we happened
to be staying in a hotel that was right about the Transformers
3 set. I do not particularly like the Transformers series,
but I must admit this was very cool.
vintage purse and shoe store in Wicker Park! It was
abundant with lace-up boots, leather bags
and unique vintage pieces. Plus that dog was
just way too cute.
I just had to put this photo up of this beautiful
Chicago sunset. Plus I think he looks way
too cute in it to not put up :)
Chicago River! Of course I had to go shopping, and below
is my favorite find.
Pins & needles Tank
Home, finally! After the 10 hour drive. Goodness...
wearing: f21 top, UO skirt, vintage belt.

I went to Chicago for work and only got to play in the city at night time. I loved it though! I was pleasantly surprised that bars stay open until 4am!! wooo hooo. I want to go back again sometime soon, but this time get to do more exploring during the daytime.
Lovely post.

Chicago is such a great city. I sometimes wish I lived there. But it gets insanely hot and insanely cold due to the lake, so I don't.
Looks like a fascinating and exciting trip!
