Southport

In my quest to find interesting details at home and around town this winter, I discovered how focusing on the little things can uniquely tell a much larger story. Take one of my favorite streets in Chicago. I've always loved hanging out on Southport, but concentrating on its details - the sophisticated boutiques and independent restaurants and cafes, the trendy hustle and bustle of its patrons - made me rediscovered why I loved it.

And a little Midwestern hospitality!
