I could not stop laughing at this video of a prank Aladdin ride in New York City.
Leonardo DiCaprio has a doppelgänger! My only question: Is he single?
My friend Caitlin wrote this insightful post about how you really should not use “girl” as an insult.
I love the concept of this portable cardboard desk.
Urban Decay released its annual holiday Naked Vault. I love my Naked2 palette and my Naked Basics palette, and couldn’t imagine needing anything else, but if you’re a Naked collector, this is a heck of a bargain.
So painfully accurate: Your adult life in graph-form.
How do you make Chicago look a little more New York City-esque? …You litter the streets with trash.
Have you ever though about how you could eat healthier? I know I usually think about this — ESPECIALLY after Halloween. Here’s some info about the Mediterranean diet, which is what I follow for the most part.
Tuckernuck put together this handy Barbour guide for this fall season! I just ordered my first Barbour from Tuckernuck last week, and wish this resource would have been available beforehand, even though I love the jacket I ended up with.

And my week highlights?
- Going to my friend Greg’s trapeze show at Trapeze School New York Chicago.
- My friend Chelsea’s Halloween housewarming party in Lincoln Park. (I dressed up as “student loans.” Terrifying.)
- Compassion, Fashion & Cocktails at the Godfrey.
- Finishing Amy Poehler’s Yes Please.
- A gorgeous 70-degree November day.
- Dinner (and wine!) at Pizza Rustica in Lakeview. (My friend Ariel and I split the Bianca pizza and it was delicious.)
- Watching Hocus Pocus during movie night with my coworker Haley.
- I tried the Starbucks Toasted Graham Latte for the first time. I wasn’t really a fan.
(You can keep up with this stuff as it happens if you follow me on Instagram, or on Snapchat at randimshaffer.)
I’m really looking forward to the nice weather we’re anticipating this week! It’s so weird to think of 70-degree temperatures in November, and while I love fall, it took so long for Chicago’s summer to start, so I’m not too mad about the warm temperatures hanging around.
