If you’re from Wisconsin, I don’t have to explain to you the majesty that is Lambeau Field. It has been said time and time again how special of a place Lambeau Field is and how captivating the atmosphere of a home field Packer game can be. These are not exaggerations. Many football fans, Packer fans and non-Packer fans alike, come from near and far to experience a game at Lambeau Field. I myself have been to a handful of regular season Packer games. I have had the opportunity to sit in the lower level on the 50 yard line where I felt as if I could almost reach out and…

The Perfect Fall Football Outfit
Do you struggle to find outfits to wear to fall football and other sporting events? Especially outdoor sporting events that take place in cooler weather. For the longest time I faced the same struggle. It’s virtually impossible to plan an outfit for any kind of outdoor sporting event in the Midwest because you never know what the weather will do! Will it be 40 degrees and rainy? Will it be 65 degrees and sunny? Sometimes the answer isn’t clear until the day of and sometimes even the day of, mother nature still hasn’t made up her mind!

Let’s Start with the Basics
Ok guys, if there is one thing to know about me, it’s that I am addicted to cardigans and camis. They are both staple pieces that are just so versatile!

What is great is that I can then take all of these cardigans and layer them over other pieces that are already in my closet for even more options. I would definitely say that step number one in creating…

My Favorite Wisconsin Pumpkin Patch
One of my favorite lifelong traditions is taking a trip to the pumpkin patch with my family. For as long as I can remember, we have been going to Waldvogel’s Farm in Juneau, Wisconsin.  The place is so charming and they truly have something for everyone. From mini golf to goat feeding to a corn maze, Waldvogel’s has just about every fall-time activity you could possibly think of and then some! Full disclosure here, I have never been to any other pumpkin farm, but I honestly have no desire to go anywhere else.  My family and I make it a point to go to Waldvogel’s every year and every year…

Behind the Blog: The Real Story Behind Small Town in Stilettos
It’s impossible to tell you about why I decided to start the Small Town in Stilettos blog without filling you in on a bit of my backstory, so I will start from the beginning and try to keep it brief!  I grew up in a small Wisconsin town, but growing up I always knew that I had to get out of my hometown. So I did. After graduating high school I moved to Milwaukee to attend college.  As fate would have it, after college I wound up finding a job in a corporate retail setting in downtown Milwaukee. I pursued a career in eCommerce merchandising and I enjoyed it!…
