Kyciana, who goes by the name A.J. in everyday life, designed and made her brooch herself. She has such a great sense of personality from the vintage loafers to the leopard print sunglasses.
Jen and Molly met at the University of Wisconsin as undergrads, became best friends, and now they’re roommates together in Lincoln Park. We had a nice laugh about Molly’s Theyskens’ Theory top. She and I both have tried on the Theyskens’ Theory Dotta dress in the same ital print, and it fit both of us terribly. The way the dress was cut was horrible and accentuated all the wrong places.

This dress saddened me because I am obsessed with Theory. A white button-down Theory shirt was one of my first investment pieces for my wardrobe. I bought it when I was still an undergrad at Michigan State, and used to have to drive all the way to Troy to visit the Somerset Collection mall to shop at Neiman’s and Saks. Most of Olivier Theyskens’ designs for Theory are swoon-worthy – but this was not one of them. It was just so funny that both of us had the same experience with that dress looking great on the rack and then terrible on our bodies.
Megan’s pendant necklace is the House of Harlow Tribal Pendant. I own the knuckle ring from the same collection.
