Palm print is absolutely everywhere nowadays, including at our latest family barbecue. There is something slightly campy about a palm print, isn’t there? Maybe that’s why it’s such a fun choice for summer, a time when we indulge in a lighthearted sentimentality that takes us back to summer camps or vacations of yore. We had […]
Ready for a good old fashioned wedding guest outfit of the day? I briefly posted this on Instagram following the wedding, but I loved the look so much that I wanted to devote a post to it. Rodrigo and I got to celebrate one of my best friends from high school, Emily, marrying her college […]
Hello there! I’ve had this fun and spicy look of the day in my back pocket for awhile now, and wanted to share it with you in between the heavier couture reviews. Who doesn’t love a little neon bodycon action? Back in June, the consignment giant ThredUp opened a retail location smack dab in the […]
My friend Ashley and I have a standing dinner date every month. It’s one of those little things on my calendar that I look forward to, that balances out my tendency to hole up and write without seeing, you know, humans, all day. Last week, Ash and I went to The Hog’s Apothecary on 40th […]
Clearly there are a lot of advantages to height. If you’re taller, you are more likely to make more money and to be perceived as smarter, more attractive, and healthier, according to this BBC article. Seriously. I think that’s why us short folks are often so scrappy. There’s a lot of grit required to compensate […]
Ok, so spoiler: there’s no actual burlesque in this post. But there is a sa-weeeeet dvf wrap dress. And snake print. And thigh high boots. But if you came to the blog today and wanted desperately to know what the hell to wear to your friend’s burlesque debut, today is your lucky day. Do you […]
Wedding season is upon us! Are you one of those people who has 10 weddings every summer to go to? If so, how the hell do you know so many people? Just curious. ALSO, I know it can be a bit tricky to find a good wedding guest outfit, especially if you’re not super clear […]
Happy Monday! This last weekend was a whirlwind. My work with Thai New Year SF and Sunday Streets culminated in our street festival (including the fashion show I worked on), so I took Friday to take care of loose ends, hence no post. But today I’m back with a short but sweet outfit post. I […]
I’m baaaaack! I took a break on Friday, hence no post. To be honest, I’m telling myself it was a “break,” but in reality, it was anything but. Friday was one of those days that you lose to logistics. I spent an hour and a half on the phone with the pharmacy (TGIF, everyone!), and […]
If you haven’t met me in real life, you probably don’t realize that despite my penchant for fancy clothes, my lifestyle is very low-key (whether from lack of interest or lack of finances, I’d rather not say). I love our sunlit but ancient little apartment, the old cedar trunk I bought at a garage sale […]
