My apologies for being MIA late last week–we moved! Seeking new adventures (and more space!), Alfred and I have relocated to Chicago’s Hyde Park. It’s a beautiful, tree-lined neighborhood on Chicago’s south side known for the University of Chicago (my grandparents’ alma mater), Frank Lloyd Wright’s famous Robie House, and, more recently, the Obamas’ private residence. The top photo is the bay window in our new living room; the bottom was snapped on a Saturday morning stroll through our handsome new hood (those hydrangeas!). The new space has hardwood floors, white walls and molding, glass door knobs, and other quirky features. I’m so excited to share the decorating process with you and explore more of the neighborhood – be on the lookout for a guide to Hyde Park sometime soon. In the meantime, back to unpacking. Wish me luck!

How lovely! I’m a University of Chicago grad who moved back to the East Coast a few years ago. I miss the neighborhood and the city every day. Enjoy!
Molding AND glass door knobs?! You’re killin’ me! ::heart eyes::
I’m SO excited for you!!!! I simply must plan a trip to Chicago so I can come and visit (you make it look so incredible on Instagram)
