The Last Days of Summer

I know I’ve said this over and over again, but I’m seriously in denial that the summer is almost over. I’m sure you’re in the same boat too {especially if you live in the Midwest like me!}, so at least we can all be in the same boat together 😉

The only good thing about the summer coming to a close is that I’ve finally been working on my epic summer bucket list that I {of course} forgot about earlier in the season. I feel like I always have such lofty goals at the beginning of the summer, but once my calendar starts filling up I find it harder to squeeze everything in. And now, it’s the end of August and I’m desperately trying to fit all the fun I can in before it gets too cold in Chicago {and we all hide inside for the next 6 or so months – aye!}Maya13Maya06Maya03This past weekend I adventured downtown to re-explore millennium park and spend some time at the Art Institute, one of my favorite places in the city. It’s not only incredible inside, but I love the gardens and sculptures that surround it, and it’s the perfect place to spend the day or explore on a date night in the city.

My go-to date night outfit these days has been this little white pom pom dress that was seriously on sale at ShopBop! While I used to be afraid to wear all white {mostly because I’m so uncoordinated that anything while almost immediately gets destroyed, whoops!}. I love that this little dress is super comfortable {and stretchy, yay!}, and it’s easy to pop on with a pair of heels and immediately feel a little fancy. Plus, it’s always nice to have a no-brainer dress that’s perfect for date night, a fancy event or even drinks after work with a few girlfriends.    Maya01Maya07 Maya15Maya09 Maya12Maya08What’s left on your summer bucket list, anything you’re hoping to check off this week? I’m planning some epic trips in the next few months to check epic adventures off my list – and I’m excited to share the news in the next few weeks! xx

    Love this outfit!! I never think of pairing my black heels and bag with an all white dress, but I love the look here, so I will have to try it 🙂 Can I ask where your black heels are from?
