Where To Eat: Prime & Provisions
Chicago is full of steakhouses. Seriously, they’re e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. So in May of 2015 when Prime & Provisions opened we were skeptical about whether it would last or not.

Tassel Details
Layering a slip dress is one of our favorite ways to create multiple looks from just one article of clothing. We’ve paired this one with a denim jacket, over a t-shirt, with a layered sweater, & with an open back sweater. Each time it allows for an entirely new look created out of just one piece of clothing.
