The windy city

After saying in a past post how interested I am in traveling to so many different places and cities I have just gotten back from Chicago! 


Whilst in Chicago I became a major tourist so I am very sorry to every tourist I basically shove aside in New York I understand it is a little overwhelming having no idea where anything is.

We stayed a few blocks away from Navy Pier which made one of the best things the view from out our hotel window which looked over the river. The first day we went out we took the hot long terrible walk to the Shedd Aquarium, I've been to plenty aquariums before but they had beluga whales so in short I was VERY excited and there is a possibility we all stood in front of the tank singing baby beluga. The next few days we went to the skydeck (where you can see about 4 different states), we took a lake tour, hung out on the pier and OF COURSE I went shopping because whats a trip without some shopping! 





On the last full day we were there we finally went to millennium park where the bean? I'm not actually sure if that is what its called but I waited the entire trip to visit it. 




What I wore to millennium park 
Striped crop top - H&M
Black high waisted shorts - Urban Outfitters
Flannel - Thrifted
White high top converse
Sunglasses - Warby Parker 
Bag - Forever 21 

As much as I enjoyed Chicago it made me appreciate New York even more. I have such a love/hate relationship with it but its my city and I think it'll always come out being my favorite. There were so many things different about Chicago such as  the pace being slower and I found finding my way around much more difficult. I would like to go back in the future with someone from there that knows all the areas that someone just visiting would never think to go to or wouldn't be able to find. You always enjoy places like that the most because they aren't aimed to please people who are just there on vacation. If your from there let me come visit you!

A day in the park

I may have forgotten to post this beaut whilst dealing with finals and moving out of school and then some terrible terrible internet connection. My mom and sister decided to come visit me in the city when the  weather was finally nice enough to spend a day in the park. 

We went to the castle, if you've not been there its so pretty. We went to the top which is where we took most of the pictures. To get to the top there were these narrow spiral staircases. I wish I had more pictures of the park but my sister has them.

Other then castle we just did a lot of walking!
