One thing ya gurl is gonna do is get out here and:
Live Fully
in my own company! Oh, it’s soo freeing.
This past Saturday, I spent the day solo in Chicago. I got there at around 2pm and got back after midnight.
I really had no plan. I let the adventure unfold as I strolled.
I did lots of people watching, took photos for families, and had a couple people request to take pics of me. One guy was liking my shoes and asked for a pic of them – he thought I made them (at least that’s what he was saying). Yall, I said okay – but was wondering….” Does he have a foot fetish?!?” – the shoes are open toed. As he backed up to take the pic, he was like it might have more than your feet in it. My face was in it – he was visiting from Seattle with his daughter and wanted to show people how people in Chicago are… Yall idk – but whatever. People are hilarious. Life is straight comedy! Going with the flow is what I know!
Here are freelance modeling pics captured in Chicago:




Fashion Tip:
Take a silk or satin scarf and fold it until it’s in a long rectangle. Tie it around the crown of your head. If it’s long enough – secure it by making it into a bow. For added flare – take colorful hair clips and slide them onto the scarf! Puhlease, you gotta try this! It’s sooooo vibrant!




Fashion Tip:
Check out Betsey Johnson heels! Her designs are scrumptious! If you like to stand out from the crowd – her quirky designs hit the mark. The heels I’m wearing are The Betsey Johnson Fergie Sandal! They are a small heel, at least to me – coming in at 3.5 inches. If you purchase them, please let your first walk in them be to Fergie – Glamourous (this version is unedited)!!!





If you’re visiting Chicago and are close to Navy Pier – consider stopping in at Molly’s Cupcakes! I had been walking for a while and decided to pop in for a sweet treat, before dinner. There are cute swings inside to sit down and enjoy your cupcakes! I ordered the Blueberry Cheesecake “Best Outlook On Life” and Cookie Monster “Most Likely To End Up In Jail” cupcakes.




After, this sweet treat I took myself to a rooftop dinner at the Roof On The Wit. I sat at the bar and enjoyed Lobster tacos and more people watching. Seemed a lot of people were celebrating special occasions . This has a great ambiance if you are ever in Chicago and looking to celebrate. The DJ was on point too! I left before any dancing commenced.


Before catching my train, I sat down at the riverfront to eat dessert, the Cookie Monster cupcake from Molly’s! Yummy!

Live a life of adventure! The next time I come back to Chicago, I’m going to see about catching a local train to hangout in some Chicago neighborhoods. That’s my stretch adventure goal.
What do you like to do when you come to Chicago? Have you ever been?
Love,
