It’s now December and the Christmas decorations are in full effect!! I love it! Chicago really knows how to do it up right for the Holiday season! There seems to be a hint of Christmas everywhere you look, whether intentional or not. Here are some of my recent Christmas sightings!

Where else to begin but on Michigan Ave? Every year they adorn every tree with the most perfectly applied white lights!

Speaking of Michigan Ave... they do amazing things with the flower beds along the Avenue each month, but it is especially nice during the winter! The fresh evergreen smells so wonderful!

Nothin' wrong with a little Cartier storefront! How could this not look perfect with their signature red boxes and the building's dark green exterior.

Chicago loves Christmas so much, that even the Congress Theatre was in the Holiday spirit back in October! Ok.. this may have been unintentional, but STILL!

I love these tinsel decorations! They pop up every year attached to street lights everywhere in Chicago. You can see them in the shape of xmas trees, silver bells, snowflakes and pretty much any holiday shape you can think of!! These snowflake are so cute, lining the streets of Wicker Park and Bucktown!

And last, but not least... I love the moment when all of Chicago's street-side pumpkin patch lots turn into Christmas tree lots! It makes Christmas feel like it is officially here! I pass this one in Logan Square every day
merry christmas, chicago!
