I have always hesitated shopping online. It’s convenient, yes. No standing in lines. No crowded fitting rooms. No bad customer service. But? No way to easily try on several sizes or various colors or different styles without maxing out your credit card. Enter, try.com. A new way to shop online. “Imagine if you had to […]
Who doesn’t love saving money when shopping? I’m not gonna lie—convince often times keeps me from pursuing the cheapest option. For example—culling through racks at T.J.Maxx, Goodwill, and Ross WILL find me fashionable clothing for less. But! It takes determination and focus. (Two things I lack when shopping.) I want ease. I want space. I […]
With vacations, beach days, weddings, and more happening all day every day this season, sales are more important than ever, am I right? Thankfully, it’s summer time and the shopping is easy. It’s as if retail understands our issues. Our clothing issues. And has put lots of amazing pieces on sale. Ready to get shopping? […]
Whew. The holidays are behind us and the New Year has begun. It’s been a busy season, am I right? Dinner parties; family celebrations; holiday traditions; decadent eating. But eventually it comes time to take down the tree, put away the sequins, and start eating healthy. (#sadness) Unfortunately, I’m getting over a cold and delaying […]

I know Pasadena is. There are heaps of sales going on all throughout Old Pasadena (and beyond). And whether you […]
Readers, I have to point out that it’s less than a week away until Christmas. Eeek! This year, my husband and I are actually already finished shopping (how on earth did that happen?) But for those of you who are still in need of that last minute gift, NO PROBLEM! There are an obscene amount […]
Can you believe Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away? I know. Which means, we have less than two weeks to figure out the perfect holiday attire. Now, I know dressing the turkey can sometimes seem more important than dressing our bodies, but, let’s be honest. It’s not. This year, I’m hosting Thanksgiving, a feat […]
A neat event coming up next week takes place right here in our beloved Old Town Pasadena. Vince, located at 29 W. Colorado Blvd., is hosting a viewing of their fall 2014 collection, where shoppers not only receive 10% off full-priced items, but 10% of the proceeds will also be donated to the Los Angeles […]
Old Town Pasadena is becoming the place for boutiques and retail chains alike. Already, we’ve seen sophisticated and luxe Scotch and Soda, Splendid, Vince., Athleta, and Anthropologie open their doors along the chic street of Colorado Blvd. And coming this fall, even more will join them. While some are possibilities (you know, “word on the […]
Sometimes we can fall into a shopping rut, no? We visit the same stores countless times in the same month, hoping we’ll be surprised by fresh merchandise. And yet, all we find are the same items. The same styles. The same ol’ stuff. The fix? Altering your shopping routine. I’m telling you, slipping into a […]
