Let’s Get Beachy

You’re invited to a beach party….no bikinis required (unless you’re feeling extra daring of course). On Wednesday, May 16 I’m teaming up with Juicy Couture for a beach weekend-themed party and YOU’RE INVITED!

Not only will all guests receive 20% off (and you’ll want to keep reading for pictures of their sweet new Spring/Summer merchandise) but Rosemary Fanti (who designed my logo) will be in attendance doing live illustrations. Plus there will be an awesome raffle AND a portion of the proceeds will benefit PAWS. So help the animals, amp up your wardrobe for Spring/Summer and come hang out with me at Juicy on Oak Street from 6-8pm Wednesday, May 16.

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the brand new merchandise you’ll see at the event (and can get for 20% off!)

My outfit for the evening is somewhere in there 🙂

LOVE this sweatshirt!

My new parrot ring…how fun is this?

One of my favorite things Juicy just started offering are these DIY necklaces that are not only customizable with various charms but you can also adjust the length of the necklace to be any size (it’s truly genius). Here’s a look at mine…

Can’t wait to see what you do with yours! From now until May 7 when you buy 2 charms you get one free. Perfect for Mother’s Day or a birthday.

So don’t forget to RSVP at rsvp@skirtpr.com and I’ll see you on the 16th!

Rad + Refined Pops Up [Once Again] in Chicago

They’re back! Rad + Refined is coming back to Chicago May 6 through May 12. From 10am to 7pm you can shop their curated selection of all things rad and refined, new and vintage….and always awesome.

Photobucket

At their last pop-up event, I got a peace sign Wildfox sweatshirt (that I live in) and a sweet vintage Alaia bra (that I’ll probably bring out for some music festival this summer). Jacqueline, the owner, will be there at the pop-up event and she’s SUPER rad (and still refined)…so I definitely recommend checking it out! Be sure to RSVP to rsvp@radandrefined.com.
