where in the world is the girl???

I have received tons of emails asking where a girl has been??? 

I apologize for my brief hiatus. I have been so busy with life and enjoying Chicago's summer that I had to but my blog on hold. I was invited "as a Chicago influencer" to attend Taste of the Nation Chicago and shine & dine events, what a pinch me moment! Thank you again for the invite and I was very upset I was not able to attend. I would LOVE to have been there, supporting two great causes, but there is always next year!
