Shae Peppler of the fashion blog Vanilla Fringe and I met up last week so I could photograph her for my blog. I first met Shae in April at a fashion show to benefit breast cancer research and to increase awareness of the disease, which you can read about here. Shae is a sports reporter and has covered Chicago teams for big networks like ABC and the Big Ten Network.

Shae’s current love and infatuation in life is Vanilla Fringe. Like most fashion bloggers, she will tell you that blogging has completely taken over her life. She has a really strong sense of personal style and is a pro at putting together really interesting outfits.

You can follow Shae on twitter, @vanillafringe, and make sure to ‘like’ Vanilla Fringe on Facebook too!
