What to wear to work: Bold Prints

I know how easy it is to turn your life into a monochromatic film once the temperature starts to drop (just check out my post here from last year). But I'm here to remind you that it really doesn't have to be that way - just because nature said bye bye to colors does not mean you need to too. 

Weekend Travel: Chicago, USA

While prolonged vacation days are much harder to come by with a full time job, my itch to travel has not quite as happily taken a back seat. As a result, most of the trips I’ve been able to make lately have been short weekend excursions around the country. And with travel, inevitably comes the need to document and since I'm not much of a postcard-writing-kinda-girl, I thought it's time I started a weekend travel series to share my travel experiences and help you plan your next weekend getaway (and okay fine, mostly to serve as my own personal diary).

First up - Chicago.

30 minute meal: Pesto Mustard Salmon

This is probably my favourite and the simplest 30 minute meal I've ever made.

It takes only 5 minutes to prepare and you even have time to take a shower while waiting for the salmon to bake. 

Multitasking at its very best, if I must say so myself.  

Colorblocking in Winter Whites and Pastels

I have no idea why Americans can't wear white after Labor Day or why you should never wear brown with navy.  

What to wear to work: Zips and Dainty Chains

What to do this weekend: Brunch at Liberty House, NJ

Weekend brunch is pretty much sacramental in New York and after over 300 brunches in my time in this city, I have finally found the one. My favourite brunch spot.

And...
It's in New Jersey.

30 minute meals: Tartine Brunch

I don't understand people who order avocado toast at a restaurant - why pay $10 when you can make it yourself in under five minutes and at a fraction of the price?  It is god awfully simple -
