Yes, I said it. My Berkeley-loving, hippie, free-speech touting heart is gleeful that tie-dye is back on the menu, and not only at the Telegraph Avenue street vendors. And I’m also giving myself a huge and not entirely deserved pat on the back, because we shot this look before designers like Kim Shui showed their […]
Happy Friday! We made it, friends! Today’s post is inspired by a mood – in fact, it’s really my predominant mood – that feeling of being in a warm, lush setting, with citrus and greenery and old buildings and water. That feeling that going barefoot is just as indulgent as wearing heels, and that fabrics […]
Alternate title: Proof that the “but where would I wear it” excuse is dead You know the scene. You’re strolling with your long-suffering friend through the racks and you find something marvelous. Your heart catches in your throat because you just know that what you found is so you and that you would look glorious […]
Alternate title: Wait, rose isn’t a neutral? So I get that neutrals are considered super-chic. If you ask me the simplest way to put together a grown-up-boss-lady outfit, it would be to wear head to toe camel in nice, well-fitted fabrics. But you didn’t ask, and I also am not in the mood for camel. What I am in […]
The alternate title was “My Butt Loves Reformation and Yours Should Too,” so I’m giving myself pats on the back for self restraint. I’ve been wanting to change up my silhouette lately. We’ve been doing skinny jeans for a long time now – if I remember correctly, I made the switch from the good old bootcut to skinny jeans in 2008 or so. More than ten years of calf-squeezing! I do love a good skinny jean. […]
Hi all! Apologies for the super tardy Wednesday post. Still getting back into the groove of things with all the travel. A great problem to have, no? In any case, let’s talk fashion for a minute – or rather, shopping with the goal of finding something shiny, new, and just right. And “just right” is […]
Happy FRIDAY woot woot! I can’t believe it’s 2019 already. My ten year-old self is super disappointed that I haven’t grown up yet, haha – I don’t know what I imagined 2019 to be like, but I was pretty sure I’d look, dress, act, and have all the same gear as Marty McFly by this […]
Hello from the Mendes sisters! Today, my sister Julianne is making a guest appearance in the Stig New Years’ post, how about that? When she came to the Bay for Thanksgiving, we got our glam on, grabbed Papa Mendes and the camera, and set about shooting some glittery New Year’s inspo. What a hoot. I […]
Burberry, Diane von Furstenberg, Chanel, Maison Margiela, Versace, and John Paul Gaultier are some of the huge fashion houses to ban fur in 2018. London Fashion Week went completely fur free this year, and starting at 2019, all fur sales in the city of San Francisco will be banned. And back in 2014, the state of […]
My mom and sister have always been into fragrance. I have memories of loaded bathroom counters with bottles of various shapes and sizes and stories. We weren’t a family that indulged a ton, but a good perfume was something to be savored. To be honest, I wasn’t *that* into perfume until college. I understood it […]
