Sparkle at NoMi
Last week, I was lucky enough to escape the cold and shoot outfit photos in the beautiful lounge at NoMi in the Park Hyatt Chicago with some of my favorite blogger pals Blair, Jess, Kelly and Erin. If you don’t follow these fab ladies, DO IT NOW. They’re all gorgeous, lovely, and generous (and talented photographers, too!). So basically, this was the best way to spend a weekday morning 🙂
I spotted this sweater at a secondhand shop and immediately got excited when I saw that it’s made by Joie! I get so bored in the winter, so adding a few sparkles to my wardrobe makes me happy. It’s great with a pair of skinny jeans, but I love dressing it up a little bit more with a flippy skirt and heeled boots.
Speaking of boots, I found these on sale at Banana Republic and I couldn’t walk out without them! Don’t worry, there are some other awesome boots on sale like these, these, and these. Mmmm.
Sweater: Joie (similar & on sale) | Skirt: Loft (on sale!) | Boots: Banana Republic (or these beauties) | Earrings: Fossil | Ring: Vintage | Nail Polish: c/o LVX

Love that sweater! What a great idea to shoot inside at a bar or restaurant with gorgeous light and avoid the cold 🙂

You are the cutest, Lauren! And I'm all about the indoor shoots lately. The lounge served as a great backdrop!
