Fashion Trucks

Maybe Jen and I have found a new "calling."  You know about the food truck craze, right?  Well we're dying to have a "fashion truck."  Not totally new to cities like L.A. but new to ours!!  These "mobile boutiques" are popping up in many cities and look like a ball.  I guess it's really like bringing the store to the customer.  Tthey are recognized as being a fun, different and more personal shopping experience than traditional shopping venues. 
It is actually easy to find out where these trucks are on any certain day,with the use of social media, i.e. quick twitter announcements and Facebook statuses.  They were primarily used for in-home "parties" but have evolved into practically an everyday business_ great for lunch dates, parties, adventures, etc.


Le Fashion Truck is a popular, sought after destination in Los Angeles. 






looks like fun...

Cynthia Rowley began with a part-time truck of "samples" and has since been a full service destination for shoppers.
   

It's also popular in the vintage one-of-a kind clothing business... 

So do you think we could find a truck on Craig's List?

The new Ann Taylor and 40% off

While we're looking for deals...
We've never really been a fan of Ann Taylor, especially not since 1993 anyway, but lately they're trying to step up their game.  However, we are big fans of "40% off any one full priced item,"-which is going on now.  As they say, "you gotta spend money to save money." 




 Loving this Neon statement necklace...This is it 'in person.'
That might be my purchase...

Check it out.

Happy shopping from the girls of in your back pocket.

Etsy Find: Paper Chandeliers

I'm thinking about buying one of these awesome paper chandeliers for my teenage daughter's bedroom. It's not a real light or anything, just for  show/decor.  I'm thinking it will look pretty cool above her bed---which in order to make more room for her constant clothes changing, is now moved to the corner of the room.  
Check them out ...





They are available at Perpetual Motion Decor at Etsy and range from only $30-$38!  She'll even do custom color ways!  Fun! Cute for parties, showers, mobiles, etc.
