Look of the Day: Rue Turns One

Blogging is something that I love & adore. I love documenting things, sharing my life and thoughts with people, but most of all I love how blogging has lead me to meet so many amazing people on and off line.
I have been blown away with the community of San Francisco bloggers, their generosity, their openness and just their plain radicalness. Oh and hey Diane Steele, THEY ARE FASHIONABLE. I am beyond blessed to be welcomed into such an awesome community of people.

Let's just say when Anne Sage of Rue Magazine invited me out (just to PLAY) on Saturday night I just about died. How could I be so fortunate to call someone like Anne a friend? I mean just this week the she and her pal Crystal celebrated their one year anniversary of Rue magazine (CONGRATS LADIES!!) and they are the current tastemakers for Gilt City SF (check it out, those girls have STYLE & TASTE). I am one lucky girl, counting my stars (and wising on them...).
I love you all so much and I don't know what I would do without you all.

Melissa from Savy in San Francisco & I at Rue Magazine's Turns One Party. Let me just say BEST PARTY EVER!
My Dress is a four year old Parker ditty but this one is almost identical.
My shoes are also oldies but goodies 12th Street Cynthia Vincents but this pair also by her is just as badass and is on sale!

I've been dubbed the unofficial photo-booth queen of the group.
What can I say?
I like to get silly, and I like that silly documented!




I think silly and happy is the way to be.

Look of the Day: Parker Posie

Between the weird weather, my hospital stays and a trip to Europe I hardly put a dent into my summer clothes. Take this Parker Cami Dress for example, I purchased it in the spring with a rewards gift card and I never wore. It's perfectly good dress, that I love, but it was left sadly in the closet. And as much as I'm itching for fall clothes I'm using this heat wave as an excuse to bust out as many of my unworn summer pieces as possible.

"Ok girlies. It's really hot out here and I'm really sick of looking at you."

pretty little poises

These Cynthia Vincent sandals sure got their use. Despite bring 4 pairs of shoes, these were the ones ones I wore in Europe.

Parker Cami Dress, Heritage 925 chambray shirt (similar) and Cynthia Vincent for target sandals.

I'll be back soon..I need your help picking out a dress to wear to a wedding this weekend!

Look of the Day: The Little Black (and WHITE) dress

There is something to be said for things you can always count on. A go-to recipe, a fabluous hair dresser or the prefect closet staple. My weekend has been nonstop so l when I was getting ready for the Charity Fashion Show Saturday Night, I knew I needed an easy outfit to put together. There is something to be said for closet staples during times like that. The little black dress being one example of a piece that you can grab, throw on with some accessories, and wear over and over again. And that is exactly how I feel about this black and white Parker dress, it's like an old reliable friend that I know will always be there for me. So last night when I attended the Charity Fashion Show, this Parker dress was the perfect dress to grab and throw on and my old reliable friend friend Mandy was the perfect date for such an event! Our night was little strange but The Charity Fashion Show itself was very a fun event. Even Mandy, who is not into fashion, enjoyed herself at the show. We had a fun time watching the lines, checking out the clothes (and models) and enjoying the show.

Rocking my Paker Racerback Dress, Joie Rumor Jacket and Cynthia Vincent Luella Wedges.

It was fun having our name on seats, I only hope I can attend more fashion shows in the future!

I was excited for the Nanette part
(you know I was thinking of Chloe during this segment and how she could have worked some poses in the Nanette's dresses) .

I loved the pieces in Karen Lum's collection.

I forget who's dress this was but I loved it, too bad picture came out.

Another dress I liked but hard to see in the video.

Congratulations to the Charity Fashion Show team for putting on a great show and YAY for the fabulous event sponsors like ShopItToMe that helped make the event possible!

Look of the Day: Pretty Python

Yesterday I went to support a friend who had lost her grandma at Her Grandma's celebration of life. Which turned into us getting pizza and having a mini reunion of old friends at the local bar behind the pizza place. One of my oldest (actually she is my oldest friend, our Mom's were pregnant together) just moved back to California after being out of state since college so it was really nice to spend time withe her. Casey has a cold today so we are having a lazy Sunday watching the Patriots getting embarrassed, that first quarter!?? WOW!
Anyways here was my outfit from Yesterday:
Joie Boots, Parker top, COH Jeans and Bracelet from F21
Hope you have a great Sunday!
If you have a minute here is an article I wrote about the snakeskin trend.
