white mint

(zara blouse, denim c/o madwell, michael kors watch, qupid metallic sandals c/o lulus.com, wrap bracelet c/o gorjana, h&m cuff)

last week, i had the opportunity to host a shopping party at madewell in corte madera - a town north of san francisco. we sipped lavender champagne, enjoyed some sweets, and of course, shopped. i also styled three mannequins, which proved that if there is one color i'm into for spring, it's green. i also happened to be wearing mint green at the event... and thanks to madewell, i'm a proud new owner of white denim. it used to really turn me off, but i'm seeing a lot of potential to wear it in an edgy way this spring/summer.

my apologies for the photo quality. i admit i edited them in bed with a bout of insomnia while listening to jay-z.

madewell + going west invite you...

if you live in the bay area, why don't you come to a little shopping party i'll be hosting at madewell in corte madera? from 5-8pm we'll be having delicious libations and playing dress-up. every girl's favorite thing to do, right? and the best part is (well, there are 3) that the first 15 customers will get a gift with their purchase, there will be a special 20% discount that night for all to enjoy, and one lucky attendee will win a madewell gift card!

so you're coming, right? drop me a comment and let me know. i hope to see you there! more details to come...

giveaway: going west + jewelmint

jewelry is something i will always want to own more of, and jewelmint just made it easier for me to find styles i like. i opened an account and ordered a couple rings, and they were at my door within the week. i was impressed from the moment i opened the box. the presentation was impeccable and the rings were even better in person. i can't wait to see what new styles come out next month!
