Got em! - Lakeview, Chicago
Over the winter is the first time I ran into Delaina & Isoledad. Kit, my daughter, and I were walking to our neighborhood diner. We’ve lived in our neighborhood well over a decade so we know everyone! So here comes the most adorable girl in a vintage pink wool toggle coat and boots walking her dog with matching bows! Of course, I immediately ask Kit “who is she…and did you see how adorable she is and her dog??” I’ve seen her a couple of other times as well, each time incredibly stylish with her own adorable spin and each time vowing I am going to take her picture! Then one day a couple weekends ago…she’s standing right outside my house! Threw the battery in my camera, ran outside and rudely (sorry! But Delaina had me on a mission) interrupted her conversation with my neighbor 
I loved how she described her style….”my sisters always teased me when I was little because I would do things like layer my socks and/or tights, then they borrowed all my clothes when we were teenagers and now they ask ‘how do you do it??’ ” Ms Delaina..
and Isoledad!! Imagine him fluffier with bows! Such a cute pair!
I love that Delaina had a story about each of the pieces she had on. She made the earrings she has on many years ago, the scarf was dry clean only but was accidentally washed, her cute cotton/crochet tank is vintage.
Those are tiny little flowers in her hair...adorable, right??
see you around the neighborhood!

She is amazing! Hippie-esque styles are so cute when they are actually part of one’s natural style.
