CHICAGO VLOG | exploring the city & all the Christmas festivities!

[@lillyzerbe3621]

the way brandon looks at you the whole time you’re talking is just so sweet. you two are just perfect for each other. 🤍🤍

[@michelleespinoza816]

Yasss!! I notice that too! 😍😍😍

[@halibee7008]

It’s the sweetest!

[@emerie44]

I kept thinking the same thing!! That was so sweet to watch! 🥺

[@bookwrm100]

As someone from Chicago - it was s fun to view the city from a tourists perspective!

[@Chooseabundance]

yes im from here born and raised and I agree I love seeing it from a tourist eye too

[@sequinjin8332]

I've been there a few times. The most recent time I went was in March, and ever since, I've been binging Chicago apartment tours and vlogs and stuff cause I want to move there soooo bad. I have never been in a city as beautiful. I've never been somewhere and cried when I had to leave like I did with Chicago. I'm only 15, but I plan on moving there in my early twenties and I'm gonna save up a lot lmao. Like it's serious, if I'm not living in Chicago, what's even the point? I sound like such a silly tourist but I felt such a sense of home when I went and I have some relatives there so it isn't fully unjustified.

[@lxcy0190]

@@sequinjin8332 u can go to a uni there. i also fell in love w chicago since i love a bit of chaos in my life and im a huge foodie, also the whole city is great and the megapolis lifestyle is to die for. i am going to apply to their school of nursing since i want to move there reallyyy bad, good luck

[@eviewebber29]

haha me too! i was kinda shocked that lous was so busy lmao

[@mariamangion21]

Whenever I’m watching your travel vlogs, it’s like I’m watching a movie 🍿 The way it's filmed and all the different shots and angles shows how much time she puts into it! Thank you for taking us along, it literally feels like I was there with you 🥺🥰

The way brandon just looked at you when you were talking melts my heart 😍💕💕💕

[@JLizbeth18]

Thank you for highlighting the beauty in our City! I’ve lived here my whole life so I feel like I take it’s Christmas beauty for granted because I’ve done everything a million times. You have to come back in the summer! There’s a reason why the call it summertime Chi. It’s unmatched!

[@MindyMinx]

Allison!!!!!!!!! This vlog is MAGICAL🎄❄️ I’m ready to go back to Chicago especially for the Holidays! Thanks for vlogging your incredible trip🥰

[@APRILMAE18]

I just can't get over the way Brandon looks at you

[@kindnessmatters4068]

Reminds me of Steven and Amanda ;) on The Miller Family♡♡ Steve lookes at Amanda that way♡♡ so sweet.

[@colleenlewis790]

I so enjoyed seeing Chicago. I’ve never been. Seeing your vlog makes me want to go there. My favorite part of the vlog was how Brandon sweetly looks at you. Y’all are so precious.

[@nicoleandruszko387]

Oh my goodness! I live in a suburb just an hour north of Chicago…the Windy City is definitely such a magical place to be for the holidays. I love this vlog! I’m so happy that you and your hubby were able to enjoy some wonderful winter festivities in our lovely city! 🌲🎁

[@ChicConsciousBlog]

this is straight out of a hallmark movie 😭❤️🎄 soooo good. Happy holidays xx.

[@denisemannillo3298]

I love Chicago! And it’s especially lovely during Christmas 🎄

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

It truly is! 🎄 so festive! 💫

[@mimlife]

Allison, I am a long time subscriber and am ecstatic that you visited my hometown. My husband and I moved to TX about 15 years ago and unfortunately we haven’t been home since. Your trip to Chicago made us homesick. Lol You did a fabulous job showcasing all our fav places. The science museum, which is in the neighborhood we grew up in. It was one of our favorite places as kids to visit and it became a frequently visited place when we had kids…. Lincoln park…so many fun memories there. The food, shopping. It was as if I guided you through all our favorite places. Thank you so much for sharing this special trip. We may have to go home next year.

[@hoyin796]

Allison, really appreciate that you filmed Chicago so beautiful and peaceful, especially during Christmas. This is the city I love. Thank you!

[@loganalu]

At like 11:25 in the video, Brandon is looking at you soooo warmly and fondly. It’s so sweet 🥲🥺💕

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

My angel man 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Well that's what they do when they fall in love🥰

[@xokelseyxo9238]

Sweetest Allison, looks like you and your Prince Charming had a beautiful and happy trip! Thank you so much for always sharing your life with us. I adore you so.

[@imkristinamarie]

Perfect time to visit the city! Our weather has been extremely mild for this time of year!!!

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

Yes! It was way warmer than I was anticipating! ❄️

[@vlogsbyanna2]

As someone from Chicago,It is definitely the place to go for Christmas!

[@hanapowell9178]

My boyfriend and I are taking a trip to Chicago this year and a lot of people are saying it’s dangerous. Should I be worried ?

[@auds8764]

@@hanapowell9178 You probably already went or didn't go but as long as you avoid south (and some west) side of Chicago, it's safe. News is overdramatic. Downtown and north of the city is safe.

[@angelahale1169]

The way he looks at you is the sweetest 💛🥺

[@ALISHAJPOOLE]

We love a cozy allison travel guide🥺😍🥰

[@susanstyler4866]

Loved seeing your Chicago visit @ Christmastime. It’s where I was born & lived the first 10 years of my life. I know the Lincoln Park area well & Navy Pier, Buckingham Fountain, all the great museums too. You brought back great memories for me, Allison. I haven ‘t been back for a visit in several years but need to plan one for the holiday season!🎄✨❄️

[@sarawalsh196]

Wow!! What a coincidence Allison, I visited Chicago a few years ago and your video was spot on with such amazing details of this great city! They don't call it the windy city for nothing. Thank you!!💕😀

[@leahgillette7508]

Queen of cozy, dreamy travel vlogs!👑💕🤩 you could truly make me want to visit any city ever!

[@lisaf5303]

It always nice to see people enjoying Chicago. I've lived in Chicagoland all my life and it always seems like such a hassle to go into the city. It's nice to see all of the activities I always forget about.

[@michellewissler3013]

Oh this vlog was gorgeous!!! It was Christmas magic! Chicago has made my list to visit, especially during the holiday season! So happy that you and hubby got to go on such a lovely trip! Thank you so much for ALL the hard work you put into each video!!! It's amazing! Especially this one💖 Have a wonderful weekend 💖🤗⛄🎄❄️🕊️

Your travel vlogs are some of my favorites to watch🙂 The videos are always done so beautifully & really capture the places you go.

[@martymcgrady5535]

We love the Roastery in Seattle. The best experience! I lived in Seattle most of my adult life but raised in the Chicago area and now live near Malibu. Your Chicago trip brings bask memories.

[@HarryThomasPictures]

OMG Chicago is HUGE and is at it's brightest at Xmas just like New York🤩💫. The shots and are the editing throughout this vlog were just flawless Allison🎄✨!

[@emilyandropolis1502]

The shead aquarium is the best and great for little kids and even older!💕 Also love the Lincoln park zoo!

[@akaaiden2341]

This trip truly was amazing !!! Thankfull we get to watch you enjoy 💖❤️💖 The ice skating looked like so much fun .

[@zebraattastiic]

I was so excited for this video! I live in the suburbs, but both of our adult kids lived in Lincoln Park. Our daughter moved to Dallas, but our son now lives downtown close to where you stayed! He is able to walk to his office from his beautiful sky rise. You went to all of my favorite spots. Even though we live so close to Chicago, we don't visit nearly enough. You've inspired me to do a weekend trip soon and stay at The London House. It looks amazing! I love all your vlogs so much, but this one felt like home!!!💕

[@cozyaholic]

That store is straight out of a hallmark movie 😍 Aghhh Chicago and New York are definitely on my bucket list for next year!

[@valeriaortiz6316]

I loveeeed this video so much!! Thank you for this type of holiday content which feels so special❤!
