Pick Three: ZARA Summer Sale
Eek! Eek! Eeeek! The ZARA summer sale is going on right now in stores and online. This store is one of my absolute favorites for minimalist style and straight-forward Euro chiq.

A Week by Instagram
Well now I’ve really been MIA. Last week, I went to Chicago for multi-stage, centrifugal pump training…don’t fall asleep on me…and general Chicago touring. A wonderful city, really. One of my favorites. And one of the few large cities that doesn’t smell…that bad. Unfortunately, I was being so trained and Chicago-ed that I had no [...]
