i heart tshirts

I spent the long weekend in Chicago... It was great getting out of town for a few days and being inspired by museums, architecture, city life...

I stopped by a cool little shopped called Penelope's on W. Division Street, which happened to be across from the Renegade Handmade shop (more on that, later.) I found the cool tshirt on the left, which is by a company called The Quiet Life.

I checked out their website and found some other cool shirts:

Penelope's was a cool little shop with a mid-century aesthetic, mod clothes, and some neat gift-y type items. I just wish some of their men's clothes cost a bit less as my newly self-employed salary can't afford $150 cardigans.

I also bought the yellow shirt at H&M. I don't usually wear yellow or any colors for that matter. I was willing to branch outside of my usual black, gray, white color palette since I really liked the typography and collage-yness of the artwork.
