Jazzi — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:44:37 +0000

Yard Sale part II: Saturday, January 14, 2012. 10am – 4om. 616 Parkman Ave. @ Bellevue.

Hosted by myself (Jazzi McG), Jayne (stopitrightnow), Alicia (InnyVinny), Natalie (FashionIntel), & Nia (TenderHeaded)

We’re at it again and you should definitely be there. So this Saturday, after your Intelligentsia and before whatever else you’re doing, head over to our encore Silverlake Yard Sale. There were some serious scores last time and we all wanted to do it again with more beer and without the threat of precipitation.

YARD SALE!

Once upon a time some bloggers were going to have a yard sale. That weekend it rained in usually-sunny-LA and that yard sale was postponed. A year and 1 baby later (not mine, Alicia’s) that yard sale was re-scheduled. You came, you hung out, you shopped, you saved some money while helping us clean our closets and we all lived happily ever after.

Long story short: YARD SALE. TOMORROW. ECHO PARK. YOU COME. YOU BUY. ME HAPPY.

I have some pretty stylish friends with some pretty messy closets, come help us purge. Or at least come say hi. There will be some designer stuff, some not designer stuff, some vintage, a desk I bought that is too big for my studio, some shoes, a baby (not for sale) and general good vibes… and more. Outside of Jayne, Alicia, Natalie, Nia and myself, I have a few other (coughstylistcough) friends dropping off gear and we’re also hosting a BROOK&LYN sample sale (not to be confused with Brooklyn, this yard sale is in L.A.)… Don’t miss this one.

Shit guys, Mother Nature canceled our Yard Sale!!! BUT, fear not we’re rescheduling (tentatively for Dec 5th 12th) which will give me more time to collect more cute things I don’t need…I will keep you guys posted!

I haven’t even had time to slap myself on the wrist (hard) for being a “bad blogger” lately, but you can come and abuse me in person this weekend at a YARD SALE, you sadist! Or you know, just come say hi, buy some stuff or just sit with us and chill.

I love Jayne (even more, is that possible!?) for concocting this yard sale and inviting me and some of my other faves to the the party. Especially, since I have a tendency to buy things that would “look soooo cute on someone!” even if that someone is not me. Which has left me with a lot of stuff I can’t/don’t wear but would look “soooo cute on someone!”. And sometimes, it’s just time to let go of those things and all the other things I’ve been hoarding…

Sorry, guys!

follow me on twitter (@jazzimcg), where I might or might not post peeks of some things I’ll be selling on Saturday! Any questions, contact me or any of these fine ladies…

I haven’t pooled all my things together yet, but you can bet on some fashion mags, shoes, boyfriend’s clothes, my clothes, vintage, etc., but do keep in mind it’s a yard sale – as in stuff on a lawn, not a fancy-pants flea market, but no less fun (and definitely cheaper).

And on a non-lawn related note:

Sometimes IRL gets in the way of your blog.

But if you’ve been reading this blog for a while now, you know that unfortunately a slow-down in posting is quite common when work picks up for me. I’ve been away from the blog for a while, which actually means great things are in the making – promise. And I’m working which I thank my lucky stars for. If you’re a freelancer, you feel me.

That said, I’ve challenged myself to update once-a-week no matter what, rain or shine. More if I can help it, because I love you and this is one of my favorite ways to decompress. Thanks for bearing with me. I don’t know how you every-day bloggers do it – mad respect.

(No Subject) Garage Sale

at the (No Subject) Garage Sale opening in DTLA – wearing YSL pumps and a Hellz Bellz dress

My good friends Jackie & Chelsea of (No Subject) are hosting a virtual garage sale with portalMRKT (the site behind that Vena Cava yard sale a while back – seriously great concept). I lovingly put a few of my things up for sale (some random knick-knacks, a great vintage lace dress, a new with tags Rodarte x Target dress, and a dress from Geren Ford) and so did other LA creatives including one of my fave gal’s Geri of Because I’m Addicted, Topsy Design, Alisa Gould-Simon and lots more. Check it out (and snatch something up) before it’s gone on the 14th!

And above is my look from the opening party a couple weekends ago. True story: I actually started out the night in a vintage red dress but as I was getting out of the car, I somehow spilled dark purple nail polish down the front of it… Not quite sure how, as my nails weren’t painted and I hadn’t opened the polish bottle… but anyway, lucky for me the Hellz Bellz girls were just down the way (where I was dropping off some DIY socks for the team!) and they laced me up in one of their super cute Spring dresses. Hellz FTW!

Gold Digger: Bijules Bone Bar Ring

Bijules Bone Bar Ring & Sean’s Ray-Ban shades

This is the latest steal in my love affair with Gilt. I’m trying to avoid the usual Gilt puns, so instead of saying I’m glad I don’t feel too “Gilty” about the price of this ring let’s just say I think this ring is beautiful, some of Jules’ best work yet and I am thrilled I actually get to own it.

This is also my very first ring in gold – which I’m really liking on my skin tone, though gold calls for more wardrobe palette adjustment. I feel like silver vs. gold is more of a generational preference, but of course personal too. For example, my Grandmother wears all gold all the time, while Mom wears both gold and silver but never at the same time. I tend to go all silver with most accessories, but definitely mix metals on occasion. Which do you prefer?

Oh, if you care or noticed my tattoo says “contrariwise,” an Alice/Carroll ref, and I was bored with my bangs and color so I got some new hair. You can’t tell here but it’s lighter. I haven’t styled it yet but I’ve got some plans…
