10 Things You Don't Know About Me + Embroidered Romper

10 Things You Don't KNow About MeBy now, you probably know I live in downtown Chicago, work as a content producer, and am getting married this year in Temecula, California (read our engagement story here).  Today I'm sharing 10 things you likely do not know about me! Plus, a super cute romper and bag that's perfect for a sunny day.

Romper: Revolve. I also like this one  (under $50). | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Sunglasses: Anthropology | Wedges: Similar by Sam Edelman. I am also obsessed with these by Chinese Laundry for under $25!

10 Things You Don't Know About Me

  1. I have never eaten a hot dog! I know, it's a crime, especially living in Chicago, but it's true. 
  2. I enjoy traveling alone. For instance, I went to Ecuador for 10 days on a whim by myself. I made plans day by day and stayed with an Ecuadorian family for a few nights.
  3. I was voted class clown in high school. This is my greatest accomplishment to date.

  4. For five years, I worked as a television news reporter. I was on-air for ABC, NBC, CBS and Telemundo network affiliates, and covered many high-profile events and people including the Obamas, Sen. John McCain, and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (who was running for vice president at the time).
  5. My tongue is freakishly long. I can touch it to the tip of my nose.Nordstrom Romper 2017Nordstrom Romper 2017
  6. I have been gluten-free for about two years. It's for health reasons, and it has made a positive difference in how I feel. I read this NYT best-selling book which suggests certain people can benefit from eliminating gluten from their diets - not just people with celiac disease. 
  7. I speak Spanish (maybe more like Spanglish now) and that has enabled me to work for Telemundo and travel like a local in Ecuador, Spain, and Mexico.
  8. Cooking for people gives me anxiety.

  9. I grew up with a Jack Russell Terrier named Kona. You remember Wish Bone or the dog on Frasier? Kona was that kind of dog, and he was awesome. 
  10. I met my fiancé on a dating app called Hinge.

Embroidered Romper + Rebecca Minkoff Bags

I have always been a fan of rompers! They are just as easy to throw on as a summer dress, but you don't have to worry about the wind sneaking up on you and having a "Marilyn Monroe moment." I paired this romper with one of my Rebecca Minkoff bags. After going to the Rebecca Minkoff sample sale recently, I now own three bags by the designer. Her bags are high-quality so they will last a long time. The sample sale is over but you can still find super cute Rebecca Minkoff bags online right now with free shipping for under $150.

Have you found any great rompers recently? Let me know! Also, you might like my recent posts: Palm Print Fashion and Spring Trends: Distressed Denim & Off-the-Shoulder Tops.

Chicago museums are starting to reopen as we enter Chicago museums are starting to reopen as we enter stage four! 🙌 This photo was taken at @msichicago not long before lockdown. I was so happy to show Theo some of Chicago’s gems! 💎 Personally, I won’t be rushing back to anything indoors, but I’m glad to see things reopening and hope it can be done safely. By the way, @msichicago is expected to reopen this summer and you can get tickets now for @shedd_aquarium and @lincolnparkzoo. 🦥 What will you do now that we’re in stage four?

Millennium Park is open again and today I stopped Millennium Park is open again and today I stopped by between doctor appointments (which I had been putting off!).You are supposed to wear masks in the park but there’s basically no one here so I found this spot to enjoy a quick lunch by myself. Today is the first time I left my baby with a sitter and the longest time I have been away from him. 😭 He is in good hands though. Poor guy hardly knows anyone but Kam and me. We kept him to ourselves the first 8 weeks of his life because we were scared of the flu. Then as soon as we felt ready to share him, Coronavirus hit! 🤦‍♀️
Happy Loving Day! 💙 Only 53 years ago the Supre Happy Loving Day! 💙 Only 53 years ago the Supreme Court struck down bans on interracial marriage. The case involved Mildred and Richard Loving who were arrested in Virginia for their interracial marriage. This case is a reason so many mixed-race families exist today. 💙 #lovingday #lovingday2020 📸: @fabiolacaravaphotography
