photo love
LOVE LOVE LOVE. And, to make it better still, it's from a wedding in Indianapolis! Discovered through my new favorite wedding blog, Tying The Knot, written by Jessica, who recently got married in Indianapolis.
Ok Shift, no more wedding posts...today :)
wow.
Incredible and inspirational and dedicated and...no words seem sufficient. If this doesn't motivate people to get their lazy butts to the polls next Tuesday, I don't know what will. Not sure where to vote? No excuse! Vote411.org has a search function that will help you find out.

hello, lover.
I love Chicago (but not the weather).
Chicago Antique Market is tons of fun. If only I had a UHaul to take things back to New York in, I would've made out like a bandit! So much nicer, more diverse, and more affordable than any antique market in NYC (but no big surprise there).
Mado restaurant is new, BYO (yay!), affordable and has amazing food (well, other than that my fish entree came with the eyes still on it, but that's neither here nor there). I could dream about the skirt steak and gorgonzola polenta that Shift got...yum.

forever frugal fridays
forever frugal friday...
pick one: rope halter top in dark purple
pick two: wool cardigan (i would need to feel this to see if it was cheap and scratchy...)
whoot whoot!
unfortunately the windy city is cold, windy, rainy and possibly snowy but fun will prevail.
(i loved this picture on this is glamourous but couldnt find a reason to link it...instead i'm pretending the brown one is me (but shorter), the blond one is barclay, the red head is missing and the city is chi-town....humor me)

priscilla ahn
"Singer-songwriter Priscilla Ahn embarked upon a career the old-fashioned way: she packed her belongings in a car - “two guitars, clothes, and some other junk I really didn't need to bring” - and left her Pennsylvania home for L.A. That she found steady gigs - a supportive circle of fellow artists and a record deal in a relatively short period of time, give or take several months of bad waitressing jobs - will come as no surprise after a single listen to “Dream,” the lilting opening track of A Good Day, her full-length debut on Blue Note Records. Ahn artfully balances youthful whimsy and grown-up sophistication, playing guitar and singing in a warm, welcoming, and stunningly self-assured voice"

I love a good sale section.
It's always hard to find a good sweater dress that isn't too clingy in the hip area, and this one isn't -- but it runs ridiculously large. I need to find an XS, so maybe that will be a project for the weekend...it's worth it, since it's now $80 marked down from $150! And then no more shopping. At least until Chicago :)
