ModCloth has opened a new pop-up Fit Shop for a limited time in San Francisco at 222 Grant Avenue. This exciting concept allows shoppers to work one-on-one with a personal fit stylist who not only helps you find the perfect ensembles, she sets you up in a fitting room, assists you with sizes, and she can even measure you to find out your perfect fit! Love that!

Since ModCloth is an online retailer, the Fit Shop is a great way to try on their clothing before you buy something online. If you have never tried ModCoth before, this is a great way to acquaint yourself with their clothing, and see what your size would be in their apparel. This will enable you in the future to be able to shop on ModCloth.com easily! Now THAT is fabulous 😉

I have never shopped from ModCloth before, so when I was invited to check out the store, I was excited to see what they had to offer. As expected, the clothing has a vintage, feminine feel. I loved the vibe of the store, and the wide selection. My Fit Stylist Ashley, was amazing to work with. She was extremely helpful, and knowledgeable. I had my kids with me, and she was very patient with them too; which is fabulous!

Ashley set me up with a room filled with my selections. She also brought me a few extra items to help me create complete outfits. She read my taste like a book! She brought me a fabulous navy top, which I instantly fell in love with!

The concept of the store is to enable shoppers to work with a Fit Stylist who can assist you in finding looks from their online store. While the jewelry, vintage tee’s, and select vintage apparel is available for immediate purchase, everything in the store you try on is a sample. If you like what you try on, your Fit Stylist will order the items for you, and they will be delivered right to your doorstep. This is a nice touch when you are in downtown San Francisco. After all, no-one wants to carry shopping bags around downtown; especially if you have to take BART, Cal Train or Muni home! Can we say clumsy?!!

After visiting ModCloth’s Fit Shop, I now know my size; and I will be able to easily order from the website in the future. If you like ModCloth, or have never ordered from them before, a visit to the Fit Shop is a must!

The ModCloth Fit Shop will be located at 222 Grant Ave., San Francisco, CA, until August 17, 2015. To make an appointment, please call 1-844-FITSHOP or book online here.

My favorites from the ModCloth Fit Shop for fall:


Late summer into early fall weekend look

Nothing says fall like leopard print pumps, and military green! I love spicing up fall casual looks, and weekend wear, with leopard print! It is always a fun, autumn look.

I wore this outfit out to dinner with my kids last weekend. It was perfect for the weather, yet still offered a fall-like vibe. My eleven year old daughter took these pictures. I think she did a pretty good job! Love it!

I look forward to wearing this outfit often in August and September as we transition from summer into fall.  What is your favorite color combination for transitioning from summer into fall?


Flare pants for fall 2015

flare pants for fall 2015

The flare is back. With the 1970’s influence in fall 2015 fashion, flare pants are proving to be the hottest pant-leg silhouette for the fall 2015.

Designers are showing flares on every pant style imaginable for the fall 2015 season. Flares can be spotted on denim, trousers, leather pants, casual pants, and even lounge-wear. Make no mistake, this is the season of the flare. Love that!

The flare is the comeback style of the season. Flare jeans were hotter than hot in the early 2000’s, and the Millennium trend took it’s cue from the 1970’s. The difference this time around is that flares are being on everything; not just jeans.

I found a few fabulous flare pants around the web, and assembled them into the shopping widget below. I hope you love them! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉
