chicago blogger peggy kolliasThis ‘lil secret garden is such a great little spot to escape the cold! Now if I told you the location, it wouldn’t be so secret. I’m so sad that winter decided to come back because I loved how I felt when it was 70 degrees out the other week, so I’m giving winter the cold shoulder 😉 Anyway, this is my go-to dress when I have no idea what to wear. It’s simple, yet unique at the same time. Stripes are always in season and depending on the shoes and accessories, it can be worn year round. Take a look back at how I also wore this dress in Military Chic. 

All the pretty flowers and their bright colors make me feel so peaceful and calm. I don’t have a green thumb, but I can appreciate the beauty of the natural world. I do love taking floral photographs for Limani Designs and this is the perfect place to practice. Now, to find other secret gardens…

Suede OTK

black over the knee boots These suede otk (over the knee) boots have been the best investment I’ve made to my shoe collection this season. They are seriously sooo soft and sooo comfortable. I can work in them all day and continue into the night with them. I’ve had my leather otk boots for several years now, so I figured they needed a buddy with these suede ones. I also bought a nice little cleaning kit because I want to keep them in the best condition possible. I also have an awesome shoe repair guy if anyone is looking for one! He’s seriously the best and has saved many pairs of my shoes. It’s a bit of a trek from the city, but totally worth it. outfit idea with over the knee boots black otk black joie over the knee bootsfull length black suede otk bootsJoie: Boots // Levi’s: Jeans & Tee (option) & Cardigan (option) // Madewell: Handbag // Ray-Ban: Sunglasses
