Let me tell you, Enemy Number One to my bank account is Scoutmob – those crazy cats keep sending me to cute DC shops and MAKING me buy things! It’s not my fault!
The latest conquest happened at It’s Vintage Darling, an gem of a store right down the street from where I used to live. I left with this uh-mazing silk dress, in addition to a girl crush for the store manager, Elise.
Check out the Scoutmob post here and click here to see my last Illustrative Style with Nana.
Signing up for this was either a very good idea or a very bad idea. I’ve teamed up with Scoutmob to bring you semi-reg sketches inspired by an outfit dreamed up at one of DC’s many amazing local boutiques/hotspots/general places for cool people only. First up was a visit (with my best blogger pal) to Nana - a visit I found to be so delightful I ended up going home with half of the stuff I “tried on.” We’ll see if I can resist temptation in the future, stay tuned for the next Illustrative Style with Scoutmob!
This sketch was a long time coming – I met Jillian at this photoshoot for the Lucky Style Collective in Lucky Mag, and I knew the moment she introduced herself that I was a fan.
Check out her website, Nova Style - the girl has impeccable taste.
She is also living proof that New York isn’t such a big city after all because we once ran into each other in the same car on the #6 train headed to Brooklyn! I love when shit like that happens.
When it rains it pours, I guess? In addition to a pretty amazing Refinery 29 feature, the great folks over at Ready Set DC thought I’d make a willing and eager subject – they were right – for an interview, a photoshoot, AND a video.
Thanks to the amazing folks (and new friends) who photographed, videoed, and wrote both pieces – you made me look good, and for that I am eternally grateful.
