Check Out ThredUP

I love finding innovative ways to keeps this fresh in my closet. For the past two years I've been throwing swap parties with my friends. But that has it's limitations. A new company tries to overcomes these limitations by drawing upon a bigger pool of participants. ThredUp is a new service that gives you access to the country's closets, by managing peer to peer clothes swapping. They also will find matches for you based on your preferences. Check out their website here. They are having a promo right now by offering a special "green Friday" trial. They give you three envelopes for $5 (as opposed to the normal fee of $25). Enter the promo code GREENFRIDAY at checkout. I haven't checked this out yet, but I'm looking forward to hearing more.

Party Dresses!!!

Tis the season to get your party on, and now is the time to decide what you are going to wear. My favorite excuse to buy a new party dress is the holiday party season. Sparkles, vibrant colors, and rich fabrics abound and entice. I predict a fair amount of black edge this season and plenty of sparkles. You can never go wrong with a classic cocktail dress. Check out my newest Etsy addition, "I'll Never Go Hungry Again-Party Dress
which hits a few marks, cocktail dress, jewely tones, rich velvet.


You'll be the Scarlet O'Hara of the ball. Pair with a kitten heel for a more classic 50's look. Or you could even go for a chunkier statement heel to make it modern.

The Sartorialist on vintage

One of my favorite bloggers The Sartorialist posted about Amacord in Williamsburg. I had the privledge of checking out this store last NY trip. They had great accesorries and a good selection of women's and men's clothing. When I was there the clerk was showing a customer, vintage Armani from when he designing for the Italian army. I also spied some killer black ankle boots. Although I wonder what my favorite blogger would have said about Malin Landaeus around the corner. Check out what he had to say here.
