Casual in the City :: White sneakers & Trench coat

Happy Friday everyone!  Comfy and casual in San Francisco with my favorite sneakers and trench coat.  I’ve had these Pedro Garcia sneakers for over three years now and I take them everywhere.  Literally, everywhere.  Shopping, traveling, mornings, weekends, basically all the time.  They’re comfortable right out of the box and require zero break-in time.  And this trench coat.  My absolute favorite!  Pre-loved but a new love to me.

Colin and I popped into a vintage store in Amsterdam and he jokingly said maybe we’ll find Burberry coats here.  Talk about manifestation!  In the far corner of the store, the sky opened up and harp music danced around a section of coats.  Burberrys coats.  Fun fact: In the late 1990s, Burberrys was changed to Burberry without the ‘s’.  Back to the story… Burberrys coats!  And for $100!  It didn’t matter that they were men’s coats, I was determined to make them fit!  The extra-long length, relaxed fit, and wool lining… I love it all.  Due to the wool lining, these vintage coats are heavier and warmer than the current cotton lined trench coats.  We had such good luck in Amsterdam that we always stop in vintage stores whenever we see one now.

If you happen to see vintage stores on your way out and about, I highly recommend stopping in.  Honestly, you’ll never know what you’ll find!  In regards to Burberry coats, vintage ones are usually priced around $100 – $200 instore (the current ones are $1,795 and up) and around $250 – $350 online.  I usually stalk vintage trench coats and bags here.

Have a great weekend and thank you so much for reading!

Wonder Woman Florals :: Floral dress & Gladiator Sandals

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Colin and I went back to one of our firsts.  I still remember that morning very vividly.  Before heading to work, we walked to this coffee shop (Verve Coffee Roasters in Downtown LA) and sat for a few minutes.  We basically saw each other every day after that morning.  Three cats later and to this day, it’s still one of my favorite things to do!  Morning coffee strolls!

Walking around downtown, he turned to me and said, you look like Wonder Woman.  On our flight back to NYC, we ended up watching Justice League, so it’s only appropriate to call this post Wonder Woman + Florals.  I think it’s the gladiator sandals.  There’s an undeniable sense of toughness to them.  Because they’re so bold, I wanted to add softness to balance the look.  The perfect pairing… a light floral dress!

This DVF dress is currently sold-out, but I’ll keep track of it just in case it comes back (item name is Overlay Square Hem Dress).  It’s beautiful and even better in person!  While we keep an eye out for this one, I found a few more dresses that are unique and truly stunning.

San Francisco :: Floral maxi dress & Strappy sandals

Happy Monday everyone and greetings from San Francisco!  We escaped the cold and headed to the Bay Area for a few days.  I miss SF a lot and now that my brother lives here, it truly feels like home every time I’m back.  And as an added bonus, it’s warm here!

To celebrate spring, I pulled out one of my favorite floral dresses.  The relaxed silhouette, the shoulder cutouts, the charming floral prints, the deep gold color sprinkled with dashes of baby blue all work together to create this delicate chiffon maxi dress.  Pairing this gorgeous Self-Portrait floral piece with simple neutrals, I had so much fun dancing and wire walking in it!  And yes.  Wire walking in heels! 😉

For more floral dress options, please see below.  These are a few of my favorites.  Great for wedding guest dressing, summer parties, date night, and more!

How Custom Clothing Labels Boost Your Company’s Visibility

Boost the Visibility of your Companies Clothing Logo

Having your company clothes fitted with custom labels may seem like an unnecessary expense, but you might not be thinking about the long-term financial benefits that this small change can make. We are going to look at a few of the ways adding custom labels for your apparel improve the visibility of any company and make a case for why you should fit all your company clothes with them.

Brand Recognition

What company doesn’t want the kind of brand that every household knows? That’s powerful visibility there, and anytime people see your logo after it has become highly visible, they think of your company and the kind of experiences they have had with you. The logo is a way for you to associate your business with something that is recognizable. People may not even remember your company name, but they will remember a well-designed logo. Every time your employees provide a customer with service, the customers can see your branded logo on the employee’s clothes. Whether the label is placed on to a hat, apron, jacket or shirt, it connects your brand with the customer service that is being provided.

The more often people see your logo, the more they associate your company with certain services. That way, even if all they see is the logo, they are thinking about what you do, and in their mind, your company is linked to services they may need.

Getting the Word Out

The more people see your logo, the more they are hearing your company’s name in their head or the more they are thinking about your company and what it has to offer. Brand inundation is a great way to let people know what you are offering and where they can get it. You can become a person’s top choice for any kind of service just by promoting your brand through clothing labels.

Let’s say that you offer a delivery service. You may have your delivery vehicles branded, but the customer may never see those vehicles, especially if you deliver to office buildings and various interiors. The customer won’t always receive the delivery at the front door, in view of your vehicle. They will notice the company logo and branding on the employee’s clothing, though, and that allows them to associate you positively with the brand if they have a good experience. On top of that, it promotes your company, and everyone who witnesses the delivery can see the clothing label as well. Without saying a word, your delivery person is promoting your company, and this is kind of like free advertising for your business.

A Professional Look

If your employees are fitted with nice looking uniforms and professional looking clothing labels, then they can stand out from other service personnel. A well-made clothing label gives your employees an air of professionalism. People understand that even small things like that cost money and they are inclined to associate professional branding like that with a company behaves professionally and cares about its reputation. When consumers see you proudly displaying your company logo on employee uniforms, they know that you stand behind your employees, products, and services and that you care about customer opinions.

You might be surprised at how perceptions can change over something as small and seemingly insignificant as a clothing label. Of course, if the label is poorly made and not attached to the clothing very well, then that can leave a bad impression, and you should ensure that you are using a high-quality clothing label manufacturer to put your company’s logo onto clothing. Having increased visibility is only a good thing for your company if you have the quality services and products to back up it up. For those businesses that are taking care of their customers and providing excellent services, though, the increased visibility from professional clothing labels can be a huge benefit.
