Live Creating Yourself.: Sometimes a girl just needs to sparkle!

Sometimes a girl just needs to sparkle!

...and for me, this is one of those weekends. After weeks of being stressed and sick and exhausted, I've finally had a great week, and I am ready to take full advantage of my health and mood (before the freezing temperatures settle in). So I will be donning my ombre sequin dress from Express and joining my best lady friends for a night of dinner, cocktails, and dancing in this beautiful city of Chicago.

What are your plans for the weekend? Anything special happening? Spill the beans!
