{currently wishing for} the windy city

aka, the most amazing brunch I've ever had at the Bongo Room
Chicago is one of the greatest cities in America, hands down. It has the big city glamour without the pretentious stilettos, and a beachfront to boot. What's not to love? Okay I know, the only reason preventing me from packing up and moving there is well....the wind. November though March is not fun in the Midwestern winter of foot-deep snows and negative windchills. But if I did live here, Wicker Park/Bucktown would be where it's at with its urban hipster residents, inventive restaurants, quaint coffeeshops and endless shopping options from thrift stores to upscale boutiques.

hanging out at the most adorable espresso bar on Halsted. it's called Kickstand.
