What I Wore

Readers, I had the amazing opportunity to trek up to the city of San Francisco to meet Jessica Quirk from What I Wore.  If you don't already read her blog, she started a daily fashion blog in 2007 while living in New York City.  4 years later, she's moved to Bloomington, IN and is making clothes and has published a style book!  It's called What I Wore: Four Seasons, One Closet, Endless Recipes for Personal Style.  Well, she's on book tour now and thanks to the Azalea boutique and ShopItToMe, Jessica made a stop in San Francisco to chat with her readers and sign books.  Let's go to the pictures!

Lots of food & drink

 




Some views of the store

 

Jessica styled 2 mannequins that you could put your name in for a raffle to win!  I like the red one the best, but unfortunately, I didn't see it until I submitted my name for the blue one :/.

 
And what fun would it be if I didn't get a picture with the lady herself?  I'm so short she's so tall!
 

The book itself is pretty fun -- lots of illustrations Jessica drew herself and a smattering of some of her daily outfit pictures.  The main pieces of the book discuss building you closet with solid basics and supplementing with fun, maybe on trend, pieces.  She then talks about how to remix  these pieces to work for you season to season.  It's a pretty fun, informative read.  If you're interested in purchasing it, you can look for it on Amazon for sure.  I think other places sell it as well. 

Azalea was a pretty, high end boutique with a wide array of clothes, skin care products and shoes.  They had a ton of jeans including Adriano Goldshmeid (also carried by Anthro) and Cheap Monday.  And the best part? They gave 20% off new arrivals for the folks that came to the party!  

It was a super fun event and I was more than happy to go. What do you think?  Anyone coming with me next time?

Thanks for stopping by!
