As much as I love to blog, building the Fall 2013 line is currently taking a toll on my daily posts. To give a little insight into what I do, here is the scoop:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I work at Levi Strauss as an Assistant Merchant in Men’s Tops and Outerwear. </div>
<ul>
</ul>
This means that I do <i>everything</i>. Literally, everything. I forecast the trends, figure out what I want in my line, work with my product development team to develop these samples, pick the colors, fabrics, buttons, threads, zippers that go into each garment. I also figure out how long I want the garment to live on the floor, which stores it goes to, the pricing strategy, when it will go on promotion and markdown, how it will be placed on the floor (visuals), etc. Although it’s a lot of hard work, I enjoy what I do and love being constantly challenged.<br />

I have been seeing burgundy all over the market--on the streets, in stores, and all over blogs. One of my favorite blogs, <a href="http://www.9to5chic.com/2012/09/burgundy.html">9to5Chic</a> featured her burgundy outfit and I was so inspired that I decided to create a set on polyvore featuring my favorite deep crimson color! I have these deep wine colored <a href="http://thestylistadiaries.blogspot.com/2012/04/double-take.html">Dolce Vita wedges</a> that I acquired this past year and I absolutely can't wait to dust them off and put them on come Fall.

for easy recipes that don't require too many ingredients or require too
much of my time. I found <a href="http://www.wholeliving.com/133082/zucchini-ribbon-lasagna">this zucchini lasagna</a>
and decided to give it a try. I didn't follow the recipe exactly, hence
it came out more of a casserole than a lasagna. Nevertheless, it tasted
really good, and it didn't give me that "I feel like I just ate 10
pounds of lard" feeling. This is a great alternative if you don't want
to indulge in the carbs! Here are some snapshots of what I did: <br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I wore this Alice + Olivia dress </span>to a wedding and although it was wholly uncomfortable and very fitted, it was well worth the sacrifice. I fell in love with this dress when I saw it on Cupcakes and Cashmere and knew I had to have it, no matter the cost. I love the watercolor effect and the gathering at the side, making it rather flattering on any body type. Sometimes, you have to suffer a little for fashion! </div>

Working at Levi's and constantly being surrounded by product has its drawbacks--I always have to have everything! I saw this cute little blue number while browsing the racks and quickly purchased it before heading back into the office. I love the rope cord that cinches in the waist and the soft texture of the dress. It's definitely a good dress for the office, and a great transitional piece for drinks after work.</div>

I have always wanted to try a red lip for the longest time, but was intimidated on how to pull this look off. I went to Sephora and got a quick makeup lesson and decided to take the plunge. <br />

Because I have a darker skin tone, they suggested that I use a more matte red, that's not super bright. We tried different shades of red, and finally settled on Kat Von D's "<a href="http://www.sephora.com/painted-love-lipstick-P211912?om_mmc=Googlepla&_requestid=42976&cm_mmc=us_search-_-GG-_-pla-_-{keyword}&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=1085604">Hellbent</a>." Since a red lip is super precise, you have to apply it using a lip brush. Applying it directly will be a bit messy and not have that effect that you want (you don't want to look clown-ish!). I personally don't like to use lip liner just because it's hard to perfectly match your lipstick shade, and it's just too much work. I'm all about being easy, and not spending too much time on my makeup.<br />

Since I'm not a makeup expert by any means, I decided to use<a href="http://www.keikolynn.com/2011/01/makeup-monday-red-lips.html"> Keiko Lynn's makeup tutorial</a>. She uses lip liner in her post, and I opted to go without; but, it's all up to you! Here are her steps:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>1</b>. Moisturize your lips. You don't want chapped lips because you want the application to be as smooth as possible!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>2. </b>Use a lip brush to apply your red hue of coice</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>3.</b> Clean up the edges of your lips with a concealer and brush. This will hide your mistakes and prevent your lipstick from bleeding. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>4.</b> Blot and you're done! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

I had heard about the huge LF sale on Union Street and never made my way to check it out until this past weekend. By then, the store literally looked like it was ransacked. Clothes were strewn on the floor and were stacked haphazardly on the shelves. I was doubtful that I would find anything, but when I found this tie-dyed number, I knew it was worth a shot. It looked like a huge sack, but when I tried it on, it actually transformed into something wearable and cute. The best part is the discount: originally $168 down to a mere $24. Score!</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">We all go through fashion phases. Currently, I am trading in my chunky bracelets and over-sized rings for small, little, delicate pieces. It all started with my gifted "V" ring (see #7) from Catbird and I've been hooked since. This past weekend, I bought this amazing bracelet (see #1) from my local boutique, <a href="http://www.boutiquefawn.com/">Fawn</a>, and discovered Marida Jewelry. </span>She has some pretty affordable pieces, and I can't wait to go back to see what else will be in store. They're all just pretty little things!<br />

To wrap up this long week, I wanted to take a little break from the outfits and wanted to do a post based on my second favorite thing to fashion: food. I am a foodie at heart and take my eating establishments seriously. I had planned this little overnight trip to Napa in advanced and did some extensive research on places to eat. After reading reviews, I settled on three places: Mustard's Grill, Bottega, and Redd. Although all three were delicious, my favorite was (by far), Bottega. The food was simply fantastic. Overall, I had a great trip to Napa and I definitely can't wait to return and try out more places to eat! </div>

On our way home from Napa, we stopped by the outlets (naturally), and went into the J.Crew store. I saw this asymmetrical heart sweater and knew I couldn't leave the store without it. I was planning on wearing it over a chambray shirt, but the weather was too warm for my liking, so perhaps in the winter months. I love the comfortable fabric and the navy body color with the pop of green brightens up even the simplest of outfits.

We were walking around Yountville before our brunch at <a href="http://www.reddnapavalley.com/">Redd</a> and found a nearby vineyard. I have been obsessing over lace lately, and found this perfect alternative tomato red top at J.Crew. It's a great way to interpret a basic knit top. The only thing I regret is not buying it in all colors.

We stopped in at <a href="http://mustardsgrill.com/">Mustard's Grill</a> for lunch and took some pictures in their adjacent garden afterwards. I highly recommend this joint if you're ever in the Napa Valley area. We couldn't get over how fresh everything tasted!

Happy Monday! I ventured off to Napa this past weekend where I took a few blog posts (long overdue, I know), and fell in love with the little town of Yountville. We ate at several delicious establishments, and had a few tastings at some wineries. Overall, it was a much needed weekend away and it was good to remember that there is a life outside of work!

Sorry for the lack of posts as we have been busy assorting to both Summer 2013 and Fall 2013. I had some time this past weekend (while waiting for a smog check, in fact) and found this graffiti mural while trying to pass the time. And yes, it is still cold in San Francisco. Happy Monday! </div>Victoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04652842995385537421noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5604933615759305074.post-60605222319981416372012-07-19T11:20:00.003-07:002012-07-19T11:20:47.708-07:00Blythe<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I love the J.Crew <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shirtsandtops/blouses/PRDOVR%7E37871/37871.jsp">Blythe </a>shirt and the array of colors they have to offer. I first wore the yellow version <a href="http://thestylistadiaries.blogspot.com/2012/06/summer.html">here</a>,and when I saw this pink number on sale online, i knew I had to have it. It's comfortable and lightweight, which is perfect for the warm, summer months. </div>

I was perusing a few of my favorite blogs and saw that they were featuring this cap toe shoe by Sigerson Morrison. Although they are adorable, I'm unsure of the square-ish toe. I am, however, a huge fan of the cap toe detailing on these shoes below. <br />

I wish I had more pictures to share of my 4th yesterday, but I was so caught up on relaxing that I simply forgot. We started off the day making baked eggs based on a recipe found <a href="http://www.5dollardinners.com/2011/06/baked-eggs-with-spinach.html">here</a>. I overcooked them slightly (I like my eggs a bit on the runny side), but there's always next time! The day also included going to the beach, barbequing in the park, and ending the evening with fro-yo. Simply amazing.Victoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04652842995385537421noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5604933615759305074.post-30397867044909699122012-07-02T08:28:00.002-07:002012-07-02T08:28:47.699-07:00Weekend Recap<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

My weekend consisted of a 4 hour bootcamp on Saturday, dinner at Leopold's that evening, and having one of the laziest Sundays one could imagine. The only time I left the house was to purchase groceries and go on my weekly fro-yo binge. I was feeling a bit adventurous and wanted to cook something I've never made before. I found this <a href="http://tummyummys.blogspot.com/2012/01/healthy-chicken-enchiladas.html">recipe</a> on pinterest, and although it isn't super healthy, it was quite delicious. And the best part is, it's pretty foolproof. I altered it a bit (I poached the chicken and doubled the amount called for, I put in less cheese, added more veggies, took out cilantro and sour cream), and it still turned out great. It's super easy and doesn't call for many ingredients. Needless to say, this will be one of my go-to dishes.Victoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04652842995385537421noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5604933615759305074.post-51210790004783589162012-06-29T05:04:00.000-07:002012-07-05T09:06:55.645-07:00Summer Fun<div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 650px;">

Although June/July is considered summer time, here in San Francisco, they are our gloomiest months. The weather hasn't been too bad, but it still isn't warm enough to be donning summer dresses. I oftentimes find myself wearing a dress to work, freezing, but I love them so much that I am willing to make that sacrifice. I decided to do a summer dresses set in ode to warm weather, and to add an extra bonus, found some cute options for under $100.
