Several weeks back I met up with Annabel of Blushing Ambition for a quick lunch and snapped a few portraits on the street. I’m so excited to get back into shooting film! I guess shooting several days a week for the business burned me out, but since we now have an amazing staff photographer, I feel like I can get back into doing it for myself. Isn’t she gorgeous?

Still swamped here, and proving to be the worst blogger ever. Sorry guys! I did want to post a preview of some of the utterly mind-blowing pieces from my new favorite line, Funktional. Expect to see these pieces in the store tomorrow! Thank you also to everyone who’s been reading and commenting lately. So much inspiration!

Alli is our latest addition to our ever-growing team of Nasty Gals! A Southern girl with hints of twang peeking through her Californian accent, she’s sweet as apple pie.

I can’t explain how surreal it was to see our vintage on The Today Show this morning. Many have asked, and yes — the top is vintage (meaning we have only one) and is not available for purchase quite yet. We’ll have it in the store shortly, though, I promise. Click the image above to watch that colorblocking shine in all its vintage glory!

Just got the final word today that…we’re moving! Again, I know. We’ve been in our current Berkeley location for only 8 months and it’s now filled to the brim with vintage, desks, and ideas. Above is a photo of our much larger (and much quieter) new space in Emeryville. I’m looking forward to repainting that pumpkin orange color a deep charcoal gray and putting fresh carpet down in what will be my very first office at any job, ever. Right now our offices are in a loft above a PIANO store, and I swear if I have to endure one more piano tuning or Für Elise on repeat, I’ll have a meltdown.
