Last night I attended Indianapolis’ Fashion’s Night Out! I remember a few years ago when NYC started FNO, and I thought it was pretty much the coolest idea ever. I wanted to go SO badly. Well, I have a feeling FNO in New York is slightly more exciting than FNO in Indy, but the Circle City gave me my FNO fix for now. I got to see some local fashion designers, met a few other bloggers, and did a little shopping. It was cool to look around a room and see other fabulous looking people! All in all, it was more fun that I normally have on a Thursday night, and by the end I was exhausted! Fashion really takes it outta you.

So without further ado, here’s what I wore and what I bought!

My purchases: Green and bordeaux jeans from The Limited (buy one, get one free!), cardigan from H&M (can you tell I’m looking forward to fall?)

Chicago Day 2

You guys, day two in Chicago was my favorite kind of day: one where I get to wear two outfits. The first outfit was possibly even more touristy than my Day 1 outfit. Sneakers, shorts, ponytail? Hey, it was a hot day with lots of walking. I did what I had to do.20120729-130003.jpg

20120729-130059.jpgAs you can see, we visited Millennium Park. The Grant Park Orchestra happened to be rehearsing for a show it had that night, so we had a little listen. We also stopped by Daley Plaza where the Picasso statue is (you can kind of see it from the side in the picture above – you may have been distracted by my adorable yellow bow the first time). After lunch, we went to Shedd Aquarium. It’s hard to get photos through glass, but here are a couple of my favorites:

Now on to outfit #2, where I got a little gussied up to go out to dinner. Oh, I almost forgot: I did a little more shopping on day two. Are you shocked? I got some boots from Nordstrom, along with a super cute belt. It turned out to be a very good thing that I got this belt, because when I put on my dress and cardigan-jacket-thing, I felt like there was something missing. Something missing right around the middle. If only I had…A BELT! Best day ever.
