Chicago is the fu*king bomb. I spent an awesome first day here yesterday, exploring the city, going to the Art Institute of Chicago and the close-by Millenium Park, and hanging out with my buddy Ryan Beshel, who I met yesterday and who happens to be an amazing dude. We spent the afternoon outside of the city center and walked around an up and coming neighborhood called Pilsen, which is like the Williamsburg of Chicago he tells me. I was dressed for the sunny morning weather, not expectant of the thunderstorm that rolled in in the afternoon, so that’s why you see shorts and rained on sidewalks. I’m wearing two amazing new pieces, for one the gorgeous leather backpack from Troubadour, which I’ll feature more extensively soon, and a wonderful indigo dyed t-shirt from Simon Miller, an up-and-coming New York denim label, which has recently been nominated for a CFDA award. Definitely two new brands you should keep an eye on 😉
Loved the shoes!

Chicago IS bomb – says heavily biased Chicagoan ODS reader. Never thought of Pilsen as Williamsburg-like though…an interesting comparison.
The t shirt is out of the world.
