Mural Alley - Westfield Old Orchard Mall Murals

(Clutch and jewelry from Alicia Mohr)

I am obsessed with finding the coolest murals around the Chicago and Westfield Old Orchard Mall has so many all in one place called Mural Alley. What would have just been a plain and boring wall, they created something spectacular with this blank canvas. Mural Alley has a variety of murals to choose from. I can have my Instagramable moments while shopping at the mall and even take photos with what I found on my shopping trip. These murals have created a fun destination at the mall and have brighten up unused space.

Location: Westfield Old Orchard Mall (Mural Alley is in between Starbucks and Soul Cycle)

Photography tip: If you are going to take photos on a very sunny day, get there in the morning or later towards the evening. Otherwise you will get building shadows on the murals in your photos.

Jewelry and accessories are from Alicia Mohr, also located inside Westfield Old Orchard Mall.

Modern Barbie - Halloween Idea Costume

Halloween is less than a week away and I have the perfect Barbie inspired costume idea that can also be worn to work.  I channeled vintage Barbie vibes into a whole new modern look. I found a black and white  striped skirt from Chicwish that reminded me of the original barbie swimsuit and paired paired it with a bright pink Barbie logo top. And of course I added bright Barbie pink accessories consisting of my favorite heart shaped Kate Spade purse and Nine West heels. To complete the look I added heart shaped glasses that can be bought on Amazon for a steal!

Top: Barbie

Skirt: Chicwish

Bag: Kate Spade, Similar

Heels: Nine West

Color block - Stephen Burrows for Target

I love finding a good designer deal and there no better place to find one than the Target 20 year Anniversary Collection. Over the past 20 years Target has collaborated with some of my favorite designers to create exclusive designs only available at Target for a fraction of the cost.

Stephen Burrows is hands down my favorite designer from the 20 year Anniversary Collection. His bold and bright colors speak to my colorful soul.  When the collection was announced, I knew I had to have this color block dress and was first in line in the morning to get it!

While everyone is transition their summer brights for cooler darker hues for the fall/winter, I am still going strong with my bright colors! And still will be wearing them throughout the entire fall and winter season.

Dress: Target
