It’s time to come out of hibernation. While January has been cold and gray, I’ve uncovered an amazing, suburban exhibition that is worth leaving the house for…and it’s only here through the end of March 2024. You must get tickets to the Downton Abbey Exhibition located at Old Orchard Mall in Skokie. It’s open weekly from Wednesday-Sunday.

I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) and I’ve battled it for as long as I can remember. I thought I was the only one living with constipation and abdominal pain. Turns out I was wrong. In fact, I’m one of 3.6 million U.S. adults living with IBS-C.

I used to wear beat up tees to workout and I found myself hating the fit or feeling unstylish as I watched the other chic, svelte women hop on their bikes in class.

My dress was part of the Fashion Jackson Amazon Drop Collection and it sold out immediately. It’s incredibly well made and super easy to wear.
