BRAND LOVE // FOR LOVE AND LEMONS

Stumbed upong this brand when I was looking at Spanish Moss Vintage's Website, I had no idea they now sold new merchandise and had their own site versus their ebay vintage days. Good move on their part. They now have a sort of NastyGal vibe but more underground feel that is home to some small brands like For Love and Lemons  featured above. Kind of obsessed.

On another note there have been some OUTRAGEOUS sample sales in LA recently and they don't seem to be stopping. Just last week at the Joe's Jeans Sample Sale all Leggings were $5 (They have a great Jegging I stocked up on 5 pairs in amazing prints and washes including leopard!) All shirts were $10 (I got several silk blouses and chambrays) and I even got 2 Leather Jackets for $20 (YES real efing leather for $20). I was told this sale only happens once a year but if you missed it mark your calenders for next year...

Everyone asks me how I find these great sample sales and I would have to thank the lovely Suzanne O'Connor of Bargains LA. Check out her site weekly for Hot Sales in the LA and other areas and follow her on twitter and facebook.

Skingraft LA

The most amazing leather goods in existence can be found at Skingraft in downtown Los Angeles. I've been eyeing the holsters for some time now and want to make a trip down to their store to pick one up rather than order online, today may be the lucky day! Kat Von D is a big fan of the company and is rocking the leather bolero in the above photo.

Weekend Shopping

Get excited!

SAMPLE SALE!!!

Sample Sale's are one of my favorite things. You get things before they hit stores, crazy discounts, and the rush of it all is a shopaholics dream. This is one of the great positives I found with my move to LA, heres a great site with all the samples sales in Los Angeles, you can customize the website to see great fashion news in other cities as well.

Los Angeles Weekend

Went to LA over the weekend to DJ and to search for a place to live (moving mid December). Really weary about the move since I'm not a huge fan of no parking and traffic and have yet to find a job, but I am optimistic and hope it will all work it self out in time. It was also my first time attending CONTROL at Avalon Hollywood, if youve never been I highly recommend it, they always have the best djs and the venue is amazing!
