Dolls Two Favorite F Words

February 7, 2017

Don’t let your mind wander… this is after all, a tale of two dainty Dolls. Fashion & Food is one of life’s best pairings and there’s one day each week when worlds perfectly collide. This week we are celebrating Taco Tuesday by getting DOLL’ed up and exploring our beautiful city. At this point in our Dollationship, it should be of no surprise that when Caitlin and Danielle have a margarita in one hand and taco in the other, they still completely have fashion on their minds.

fabrik16In today’s #InstagramFabulous world, spending time with new friends, old friends and best friends often comes along with some impromptu photo shoots.

When meeting up, it’s important to feel your best and that requires you to look your best. We have found comfort in a lovely boutique nestled in the Wicker Park neighborhood, Fabrik. This boutique has found a place in our hearts because there are always outfits here for every occasion. If you’re a gal on the go, Stop! This this is the perfect boutique for you.  Fabrik is staffed with friendly, professional stylists that will dress you head-to-toe based on your style preference. We said it… Head-to-toe with the most fashionable accessories and cutest shoes.

Tuco & Blondie is a new hot spot in The Southport Corridor neighborhood in Chicago. This restaurant is fully themed for MEXIFUN and bound to leave all your senses satisfied. The restaurant is bursting with color from the inside out. You will find original décor throughout the establishment  including bright and original wallpapers, festive piñatas, murals inside and out and a light up cat wall.

Tie-dye pants and tacos go together like cold shoulder sweaters and frozen margaritas. When indulging in your favorite fare, we encourage Dolls everywhere to be cosy and coordinated. We love these boho looks to dine with your bestie!

There are so many great experiences that come along with living in Chicago and a main highlight in our dolltastic world is food, here in Chicago we brunch, lunch, linner and dinner.

Fare with Flair

Fare with Flair: The salads at Tuco & Blondie are a must! These delicious beds of healthy goodness with a side of Mexi-fun make our hearts sing.

Fish Tacos at Tuco & Blondie - Once Upon a Dollhouse

Tempting Tacos: The fish tacos are so divine with grilled mahi mahi with cabbage and chipotle lime creme.

Savory Shrimp: We’ve never tasted something oh-so-decadent! These shrimp are wrapped in bacon with yellow and red chili sauces.

Besides scrumptious food and great fashion if there is one more thing Chicago can’t get enough of, it’s when the seasons start to shift from winter through spring and into summer, we all start searching for the perfect patio to defrost on, look no further. Caitlin and Danielle can’t wait to see what the summer on this epic patio brings.

About

Once upon a time... there were two best friends that lived in a Dollhouse. That's where the story began. While the pages of this digital storybook keep turning, one thing remains the same. Caitlin and Dani are by each other's side through the ups, downs and all the realness in between.
