Top 5 Chicago Holiday Activites

Top 5 Chicago Holiday Activities
Are you going to be in Chicago over winter break? Well here are my tips and tricks to make your trip the best and to take advantage of the lovely city of Chicago.

  1. Go to Macy's on State Street: Macy's on State Street is iconic! You must hit up this stop along with the Walnut room for lunch or dinner, buy an ornament at the Christmas shop, and buy some Frango mints. This is one of the best Macy's I have been too because they have a lot of variety at their store. 
  2. The German Holiday market: The holiday German market is a fun stop to get unique food and gifts! 
  3. Visit the bean: Take an iconic picture with the bean with snow all around. The reflection is extra neat during the winter time. 
  4. Shopping on Michigan Avenue: Michigan Avenue is a must during the holiday season. Be sure to check out Water Tower, Topshop, and the huge Forever 21 store while your there! 
  5.  New Years Eve at Navy Pier: Navy Pier has an amazing firework show on New Years Eve. If you plan on being downtown during the big night be sure not to miss it!

Spotlight: Kate Spade New Arrivals!



Kate Spade New Arrivals!
Kate Spade has of course done it again! Their new arrivals are pure perfection. Not to mention perfect timing with my cruise coming up in January these nautical pieces would be perfect! It was hard to not pick the whole collection as my favorite things but I did narrow it down a bit to my favorite new pieces. 

This fun pouch and matching tote is the definition of adorable! I love the stripes and also the saying on the bags. Kate Spade is known for their idiom pieces and I think they are super fun and unique. Not to mention I love the cold accent of the writing and the spade. 

This small circle crossbody is adorable! It would be great for traveling because you can just carry your essentials. Also this would make a great going-out bag. 

Can we please talk about this pearl phone case? It is the definition of perfect! I am most likely going to get this case because I am in love. It's super preppy, classic, and girly all at the same time. 

What girl doesn't need a bow infinity scarf? I love the red and blue theme throughout the whole collection. This piece is super cute and would be great for a casual look. 



All of the new statement pieces are gorgeous. Not to mention I think they would match a lot of different things in peoples closets. 

 

This striped bow necklace is adorable! It's a great dainty small piece. 

 
This scalloped bangle is a great addition to any girls arm candy collection. I love Kate Spade bangles and this one is no exception. 

This navy and white striped watch is super cute! It would be a great component to any preppy look you may have. 

Kate Spade Keds sneakers may be one of the best inventions ever. These striped and polka dot ones would be perfect for a cute but casual look. 

Look at all of these adorable nautical dresses! Thank God for red, white, and blue!
