On Sunday, Suze of Miss Vinyl Ahoy, hosted a small event for the fashion bloggers in the Chicago area to meet and greet and network. We had a great turnout!We are definitely a colorful group! I think that I was more nervous to pick out an outfit for today's event than I was for the first day of school or meeting the parents. How do you think I did?
Boyfriend Blazer - Old Navy; Top - Target; Leggings - Old Navy; Flats - Old Navy; Necklace - Thrifted
Joining us for brunch was Lara Miller, a Chicago-based designer whose work has been featured in magazines like Lucky, Marie Claire, and Vanity Fair. Elle called Lara’s pieces “sultry, sophisticated, and as endlessly variable as the woman who wears them.” She was named one of the “Top 40 Under 40” by Crain’s Chicago Business as well as “Indie Designer of the Year” by Chicago Magazine.
Our meet up was generously sponsored by We Love Colors and Spotted Moth.
Lunch was at P.J. Clarke's. The food looked awesome, but I couldn't eat any of it! It was riddled with gluten and dairy, so I brought a salad of my own.
Spotted Moth donated a gorgeous handbag for a giveaway! Here's the happy winner.
Here's where you can get the bag.
We also received awesome goodie bags! I got a beautiful belt from Spotted Moth and some chipper socks from We Love Colors.

I loved your outfit- I know exactly what you mean about being nervous choosing an outfit! It's more nerve-wracking when you know you'll be with a bunch of other stylish women!
