Why so long?

Being a blogger ain't easy, you know? Even though I love this little corner of mine, sometimes a ton of stuff happens and updating keeps being constantly put off till the next day. And sometimes tomorrow never comes. But Chicago Looks always keeps going! Either in the Chicago Reader or in Newcity, there's regularly new stuff up. Stay tuned here and here.

Great to see you again! I'll start by dusting off my pictures from this year's SAIC fashion show, which happened last May 3rd. I won't be able to post all of them now, but they'll keep on coming. If you're way too curious, just check out Street View 188 and 190 in the Chicago Reader blog.
