Link Love, Vol. 93

Happy Friday, guys.

Cold, windy and wet AF in Chicago this week, but hey — at least it’s the weekend. As they say, April showers…

Peaks & Pits

Peak: SoulCycle celebrated our 10th Anniversary this week — and it’s been one job love moment after another (though a bit emotional with the news of our founders stepping down/moving on). You can read more about my thoughts on the Anniversary in this Instagram post.

Pit: The Blackhawks lost (hockey playoffs). Ugh.

Sales & Such

• FYI: Get an extra 60% off sale items at Ann Taylor this weekend.
• My favorite Nike’s — they feel like you’re walking on air.
• This striped leather clutch was such a good investment. It goes with everything!
• Just bought this grey zebra rug for my bedroom — it’ll match my headboard perfectly.
• I really like Tory Burch’s kitchen collection this season — the blue-and-white bowls especially.
• Look no further than Cuyana for your next spring tote. I have the Tall Tote and I use it everyday.
• Lace-up leather espadrilles are my go-to shoe this spring. I have these and they’re the perfect height.
• Still on the black bodysuit kick — this one has been fun to style (and you can wear a bra if you need to).
• Bought this gorgeous silk blouse last week and can’t stop wearing it. It goes well with everything!

Ask me anything

“What do you get your hair done?” - via Snapchat

I go to Civello Salon on North Avenue (in Chicago). If you’re in the area, book your appointment using the code “HALLIE25” for $25 off your first visit. Amazing! Check out their prices and such here. Feel free to reach out to me with questions.

“Where are your cut-out workout leggings from?” - via this Instagram

Onzie! You can find them at Zappos — they’re really comfortable (and a total head-turner).

Trending on c+c this week
