Taking a Risk. 

Six years ago we made the jump from Detroit to Chicago. It was big. Life altering.

Being in this city, looking at the view below, I am living the vintage dream! We walked outside of an estate sale in Chicago and stood in front of the magnificent Lake Shore Drive condo. We got in our van and took a short drive north to our new home.

Private estate calls are always our favorite.  The history of the homes, the magnificent pieces, basements and attic junk, it's all fascinating to me. We picked up some great linens, lots of old Barbie clothes (and some loose heads :)) and some great vintage jewelry.

An estate call in downtown Chicago, with a view of the Magnificent Mile is living the vintage dream for sure. I couldn't be luckier.
