I Dream of Paris

IMG_8447

Winter has finally hit San Francisco + I have finally had to break out my winter coats. While I love a look with a winter coat, I do not love putting my hands into every coat pocket + finding old metro tickets from my last trip to Paris! Every time I lay my eyes on one of those little ticket stubs my stomach sinks + I dream of Paris.

Speaking of Paris…So many pieces from this look remind me of Paris too. I bought my watch at a Karl Largerfeld pop-up shop in Saint Germaine, this KENZO jacket was a staple in my wardrobe during our last trip + this bag was a a Christmas gift to myself…and then we went to Paris.

Friday Forecast: Ho Ho Holiday

IMG_8279Life lately has been quite chaotic. Between Les Méchantes pop-ups + orders I have completely lost track of the holiday season! I have done zero Christmas shopping + have failed to even dream of decorating a tree. However, thanks to my friends at Boohoo I was able to play Santa to some of my favorite bloggers + send them a sneaky surprise. I won’t reveal just yet who I was able to surprise, but it was some of my favorite fashionistas. Boohoo also curated a Christmas shop for all your holiday needs + trust me it’s good!

IMG_6682This week I also stopped by the Uniqlo store in Union Square to check out the UT me experience…which was awesome! Have you ever wanted to create a one-of-a-kind T-shirt? Well Uniqlo has a killer service that can make that happen. You can add in your own pictures, choose any typography + throw in some artsy effects to create your very own masterpiece T-shirt. The process is super quick + your T is ready in less than 30 minutes!

Call It What You Wanna Call It… I’m A Freakin’ Posh-A-Holic

IMG_8257

“Call It What You Wanna Call It… I’m A Freakin’ Posh-A-Holic,” might as well be my theme song. Since joining the Poshmark app on 11.09.2011 I have turned into a full fledged Posh-A-Holic. If you don’t know what Poshmark is, stop right now + download the app.

Now, if you know me, than you know that I spend a lot of time on my phone. It is probably one of my worst habits. I am constantly checking my instagram, my facebook + my poshmark feeds! While instagram + facebook are fun, nothing is nearly as entertaining as Poshmark. Poshmark is a free app where millions of women come together to buy + sell women’s fashion and trust me this fashion is AMAZING. On a daily basis at least 50% of my outfit consists of items that I purchased on Poshmark, including the MAJOR peplum I am wearing today that I recently scored from fellow blogger babe, Cara (check out her closet here).

Since I up + quit my job in July to pursue Les Méchantes, Poshmark has been a solid way for me to manage my closet + my bank account. I snap a few pictures of a piece of clothing I am ready to sell, write a compelling description + post it to my virtual closet in the app. Since I have been on the app for a solid three years I have made quite a few friends on the app (PFFs) and do my best to ‘share’ and support my favorite closets. Because of this and my amazing followers I have sold a huge chunk of closet (343 items to date) + met some amazing fashionistas!

So yes, I like to sell on Poshmark…but I LOVE to shop on Poshmark. I’m afraid to share just how much I have shopped on the app, but lucky for you I have an entire blog filled with Poshmark finds + I am highly caffeinated, so I created a photo montage of my favorite Poshmark finds + the mega-bargain prices I got them for!

I guess this is a little late for the disclaimer, but Poshmark will take over your life + you will like it! Download the free app here or browse + shop the web here and don’t forget to shop my closet here!

San Francisco Style

IMG_7991

The weather is San Francisco is oh-so unpredictable. One day it is sunny, the next is foggy + according to meteorologist the ‘Perfect Storm’ is hitting the Bay Area today.

So I took these pictures yesterday + let me tell you, this outfit will not be on repeat today!

With all the unpredictable weather in mind, I always like to style a look that is weather + hill friendly.  A weather friendly look must include layers + a hill friendly look must include a pair of flats for the good old ‘San Francisco Switch’ (when you take off your flats 5 ft. before you enter an event + put on your heels).

IMG_7924

IMG_7939I obsessed over this skirt for a solid two weeks. My shopping budget is not what it used to be…so after a couple of Poshmark sales, the seal of approval from Cara + a trip to the Anthropologie in Berkeley (with an extra 30% off sale)- it was finally mine!

Do you obsess + stew over fashion the way I do?
