It's time for the annual Fashion Focus Chicago Sidewalk Sale! Stop by Daley Plaza (50 W. Washington St.) Tuesday, July 22nd, and Wednesday, July 23rd, from 9 AM to 3 PM to shop clothing, accessories, and jewelry from Chicago designers and local boutiques. There will also be fashion shows each day at noon - the perfect way to switch up your typical lunch hour! 

The usual Jess & Jill favorites will be there again this year, including Blank Nation Apparel, Anastasia Chatzka, Objets d'Envy, and more. Jess will be working at the Blank Nation Apparel booth on Wednesday, so make sure to stop by and say hi (and do a little shopping too)!

Check out our Chicago Sidewalk Sale visit a couple years ago here.

FAVORITO FRIDAY: BLOGGER BELLES

We raved about our Henry & Belle denim, so it's no suprise that we couldn't wait to host the Henry & Belle pop up with some of our fellow bloggers at Purely Fashion! We were in company with a few of our favorite bloggers and Henry & Belle ladies - Megan of Henry & Belle, Lily of adoptedSTYLE, Stephanie and Darlene of Glitterary, and Christine of The View from 5 ft. 2. What's better than bloggers and good jeans?

L to R: Stephanie, Jess, Megan, Christine, Lily, Darlene, and Jill.

Jess is wearing Henry & Belle Super Skinny Ankle in Onyx (c/o), a Forever 21 top, Cooper Jacket c/o Blank Nation Apparel, DV by Dolce Vita wedges, and House of Harlow 1960 earrings. Jill is wearing Henry & Belle Coated Super Skinny Ankle in Royal Navy (c/o), a Maison Scotch blouse, and Intermix heels.

Happy Friday!

DKNY 3 WAYS - #NOTYOURORDINARY

As official People StyleWatch Style Hunters, we had the chance to work with DKNY and style one of their accessories! Being such an iconic label and one of Jill's favorite brands, we couldn't wait to see what was being sent to us and to work on the #NotYourOrdinary campaign. 

You can imagine our delight when we opened our mail to find this Nylon Flat Crossbody in yellow. The laid back yet chic design and bold color left us with so many styling options. From shopping days to a night on the town, we loved showing off the versatility of this crossbody (and not to mention the extra punch it adds to any look)!

Jill is wearing a Blank Nation Apparel dress, Forever 21 tights, and DV by Dolce Vita wedges.

Jill is wearing a Brand & Label sweater, jewelry from GUESS and Vince Camuto, H&M tights, Aldo boots, and shorts from Target.

Jill is also wearing a DKNY jackets and top, Romeo & Juliet Couture leggings, and Intermix heels.

How would you rock this crossbody?

POP-UP SHOP WITH BLANK NATION & HOUSE OF GEMMES & BISTM.COM

A couple weeks ago, we shared the details about the Blank Nation Apparel and House of Gemmes pop-up shop in Orland and here it is! I got the chance to swing by last weekend and there were so many must-have jewelry pieces and dresses I had to keep my hands off! Sisters Marie of Because I Shop Too Much were also there, giving you the chance to rock it and swap it (for you and your little ones)!

If you didn't get the chance to swing by, don't worry - Blank Nation Apparel and House of Gemmes will be back! Their shop will reopen in late November until the end of the year!

With Lisa and Kaitlyn of BISTM.com, Brooke of Blank Nation, and Kristin of House of Gemmes!
