I have been seriously in love with rompers lately, so I thought for this month’s WHAT to WEAR look, a romper was a must. Grab a flirty floral print romper, booties and a floral crown (bonus points if it is real flowers) for a pretty boho look. Dress your guy in chinos and a blazer and a tie to ensure he looks extra dapper. This summer engagement inspiration is the perfect pretty meets preppy meets boho look all rolled into one and is perfect for wandering the streets of Chicago or talking a stroll through the Art Institute Gardens.

Summer, I thought you were here, but the Chicago weather is playing games on me. My style is longing for some summer fun like this month’s WHAT to WEAR look. Pair a flowy maxi skirt with a crop top and wedges for a style that screams pretty and fashionable. Add a statement necklace, and you are ready to go. Have your guy toss on his favorite dark jeans, washed out tee and a linen blazer. This summer engagement style is perfect for a stroll along the lake or cocktails at your favorite outdoor Chicago patio.

Spring is here. Time to push your winter hats and boots to the back of your closet to make room for pretty florals and colorful dresses. Pair a flirty dress with booties and a felt hat for a look that is so boho chic. Dress your man in dark denim, a chambray button down and suede loafers. It is the perfect look to explore Wicker Park or visit Big Star for some yummy tacos and cocktails.

Winter is officially here, friends. If you are longing for a Chicago winter engagement session but are not thrilled about the clothing options for winter, I have the perfect WHAT to WEAR for you. Pair a plaid cape with a long sleeve shirt, skinny jeans, booties and a beanie for an effortless fashionista look. Dress your guy in a beige sweater, dark jeans, leather boots and a grey wool coat. Together, you two look ready to stroll the Chicago riverwalk hand-in-hand, holding a hot chocolate and sneaking in passionate kisses to warm each other up.

Confession. I am utterly, and completely obsessed with all things fringe lately, so when I saw these A-MAZ-ING  black fringe booties, I knew I had to make a WHAT to WEAR based solely around them. Pair a sexy shoe with a tribal printed mini skirt and a bold statement necklace, and hell-o, hottie! Dress your man in dark denim (maybe even roll those pant legs up a little …. ) and a bright colored shirt with sneakers, and I’d say you have a pretty fashionable look for a couple who wants to stroll the trendiest River North streets … hitting up the best restaurants and bars.

I ditched my TV last night for a few hours of shopping for some new fall clothes. I was smitten with all the animal print and leather for this season, but one of my favorite trends is the aztec cardigan sweater. Pair a bold sweater with black leggings, boots and a little beanie for a trendy, edgy fall senior look.

I love it when it rains, but most people would rather have sunshine for their engagement photos. I do love dreamy afternoon light (swoon), yet, there is something romantic and sexy about a session in the rain. Here is a fun, rainy day look for those brave enough to get a little wet.

Fall is in the air … and while I have mixed feelings about it, I think this casual, fall inspired engagement look is perfect for the cool September evenings ahead. And I couldn’t resist sneaking in a little animal print into this neutral color palette. :)

I am completely obsessed with dreaming up wardrobe options for my new weekly feature of “WHAT TO WEAR”. If you missed last week, be sure to check out what to wear for a summer engagement session (even though this Chicago weather certainly does not feel like summer). And for this week … a dressy option … for a night downtown or just a night on the town.

I think hands down one of the biggest questions I get asked by my clients is what they should wear for their photo shoots. I wrote a post on what to wear for an engagement session a while back, but I decided it would be fun to have a weekly “what to wear” post. This allows me to “window” shop and play stylist … which let’s face it … is what I love to do. (I sometimes spend hours just picking out fun outfits in my closet … ) Every week you will be seeing different inspirations on what to wear for your photo shoots.

If you love the outfits, just click the image to find out where to buy everything — or just use the color palette to help create something similar with different pieces. So here we go … the first WHAT TO WEAR post …. a casual look for a summer engagement session.
