Last nite I attended the LookMazing and Madewell private shopping party and met up with featured stylists Britt and Whit from the Britt and Whit blog.
I found the private party invite through LookMazing’s Facebook page and was intrigued to meet these two SF fashion bloggers. I am always interested meeting other bloggers in the bay area and I have loved their blog for some time now. I recommend you check it out. Two best friends, who do not live together, share their take on fashion while living in San Francisco. It is a great concept and I love that they have each other to support one another with their blog. They are just as bubbly in real life as they are on their blog so I’d definitely recommend checking them out.
The private party was located at the Madewell store at the Westfield Shopping Center in SF. RSVP-ing gave you access to cupcakes and champagne as well as the option to be styled by either of the two bloggers. To sweeten the deal, guests also received 20% off their purchase of $125 dollars or more. LookMazing was also promoting a contest by taking photos of the looks you were styled in with Madewell items. Currently that is going on now on their Facebook Page and you can like either my look with the red dress here or the turquoise top and orange skirt look here so I can win a $50 gift card. (I need it to buy that denim jacket and not feel guilty about the price lol!) Feel free to vote for any of the other looks you like in their photo album as well.
I had a blast seeing familiar faces and making new friends. I also enjoyed being styled by someone else. I am so used to knowing what works for me that hearing another person’s suggestions was actually eye-opening for me. It definitely makes you consider other items you never would have for yourself but actually turns out to look great on you. I’d love to try styling others some day and see if that is a career path I’d be interested in. Patricia Field, costume designer renowned for her work with Sex and the City, makes it look so easy. She created such iconic looks and even though it looks easy, it must be a tough gig.
As for my outfit for the event, I wore something inspired by the Spring weather we are finally having in the Bay. The J.Crew dress was thrifted from Goodwill. I got a pedicure (and haircut over the weekend) and finally busted out some open-toe heels. I found the Manolo Blahnik’s on eBay and also have them in purple but in a velvet material (can’t wait to wear those too!) I wanted to wear something feminine and colorful as an ode to the Britt and Whit blog. The two girls are wonderful ladies and I am so glad to have met them.
Thanks to everyone that made it out and glad I got to meet you!
Until next time,,
