Chicago is currently experiencing a bit of a phenomenon. I’ll call it summer in March. In this lovely midwestern city, we rarely experience spring weather in March, let alone 70+ degree temperatures. It’s weird. Don’t misconstrue that as a complaint. If I could dropkick winter in the face and send it packing, I’d do so […]

Excuse me while I blush
Fun fact of the day about me: I struggle with taking compliments. Sometimes I stutter. Other times I say “thanks” ridiculously fast and change the subject. And then there are the times that I feel the need to reciprocate the compliment immediately and it comes out all wrong. Like the time my highschool boyfriend told […]

Today was a day where I truly became a zombie. A productive zombie, but a zombie nonetheless. I’m talking the eyes glazed over, performing the same motions, hardly moving, few words, type of zombie.

Three years ago, on March 24, 2009, HauteThought was born. I touted it as a music and fashion (and American Idol) blog from the beginning and was determined to stick to these topics. It was an accurate representation of the pop culture I paid the most attention to and I figured I’d be able to […]
