Today I’m headed back to Chicago after a week in Aspen. After two weekends of visitors in town, it was the perfect break to just relax, go on hikes, spend time outdoors and do a whole lot of nothing!
We went on several long and beautiful hikes, a few picnics and went in town to do some shopping. As always, we stopped by the Gypsy Woman in downtown Aspen. Over the years, each of us girls in the family has bought a purse from Chester Goss, the gypsy man that hand makes each purse. It’s definitely one of my most-loved items in my closet!
Although the week has been relaxing and so fun, I’m about ready to head back, sleep in my own bed and get back to a regular routine. I’ve got plenty of work to catch up on, so it will definitely be a busy busy month! Having a week to clear my head in the mountain air, I got a few other blog-related projects started that I’ll be sharing with you in the coming months! Can’t wait to share them with you then!
