pancakePRIZES REMINDER: Indigo Rein Jeans Giveaway

Hey guys! Hope you all had a splendid long weekend - I know I did! I spent the weekend taking a little break from the blog & my phone and spending more time enjoying the moment. We couldn't have asked for better weather here in SF (I actually spent some time getting some sun at the beach!). I didn't get a chance to snap some real outfit posts, but I didn't want to leave y'all hanging.

In lieu of a real deal #OOTD post, here's a friendly reminder to enter to win these fabulous Indigo Rein jeans. Giveaway ends THIS FRIDAY, so you still have time to get in on the action. I'm giving away a pair in every size (from 1-13), so your chances of winning are pretty darn good. Thanks to all who have already entered!

Enter for your chance, after the jump!

Do You Bolivares?

Do you Bolivares? Bolivares isn't for everyone. In fact, it's not even a womenswear brand. But if you Bolivares, you do what you want. Bolivares is a new brand of quality menswear. It's quality, comfort, and ease. When I put on my Bolivares tee, I was in love with the way the fabric felt against my skin. Imagine it as your boyfriend's tee that you just wanna live in. I don't have a lover bee, so I skipped that step and just got this sent straight to me, haha. But on the real, it's smooth and soft and everything you want in the perfect tee. And the beanie? Bold, bright, thick, and versatile. So, I may not be a guy, but I Bolivares. Do you?

pancakePRIZES: Indigo Rein Distressed Skinny Jeans Giveaway!

It's NO secret that I love my Indigo Rein jeans. Ever since I first discovered their distressed denim, I wore my pair of boyfriend jeans over and over and over again. You've seen them...many times. And that's okay, because that's real life. It wasn't until recently that I switched up my routine and started wearing their skinnies. Now, I'm going through that wearing-them-over-and-over-and-over-again phase because they're just that good, y'all. And because Indigo Rein knows I love them, they offered a generous giveaway for all my blogger buddies... You ready to win a pair of these skinnies I'm wearing above?? Click for more to find out how soooo many of y'all are going to. SO. MANY. PAIRS. 

#AAUFashion Show Photo & Video Recap

Last week, I was invited by MAC Cosmetics to check out the Academy of Art's Graduation Fashion Show. I had never been to the show before, but after attending this year's there is no way I can miss another one! MAC was the show's official makeup sponsor and the looks were directed by Senior Artist, Victor Cembellin (who is basically a beauty genius, you guys.) Victor graciously invited me backstage so I could preview the looks before they hit the runway, and, of course, snap some photos for you guys! The look was dramatic in the best kind of way - dark eyes outlined by black grape pigment, blacktrack eyeliner, and a hint of sparkle. Oh, and can we talk about the models? Freaking gorgeous. All of them. The Missoni women were also in attendance to accept their honorary doctorate award. It was incredibly inspiring to listen to their speeches, and then to see the students' work come out on the runway. Talk about impressive. Take a look at all the photos and my video recap after the jump!

Spanish Steps

I love mixing things ups. I'm not one to typically step out in sky high heels - in fact, you'll almost always find me in flats. But some outfits call for killer shoes and this outfit was one of 'em. I picked up this pair of beautifully detailed denim at Aeropostale (I'm telling you guys, if you haven't checked out their selection, you're seriously missing out!) and have been wearing them with everything. I put them on this weekend and the sun was shining (70 degress in the city, you guys!), so I was feeling extra peppy and decided to mix it up and put on my Pink and Pepper heels, which admittedly, don't get as much face time as they deserve. The look came together with my some of my new pieces from Poof Apparel - how good is this embroidered top, though?? Stumbled upon these steps and felt like a Flamenco dancer of sorts. I knew it would be the perfect spot to stop and snap some photos for the blog.

LeTote'in Around Town

I don't usually post outfit photos on Friday, but if we're being honest over here, it's Thursday night, I just got home from the Academy of Art fashion show (which, by the way, was amazing and I can't wait to share the event recap post with you next week!), and I'm tired. I'd love to stay up and share my usual Food Friday or Beauty Bites post, but alas, I don't think I can whip up what I'd like before my bed time. (And just so you know, it's past 10 and already wayyy past my bed time, ha.) So, I hope you'll forgive me and will enjoy an extra serving of Stacker Style this week.

Drybar SF x Beefeater 24 London Dry Gin Event

Last month, I attended the preview event for the new Beefeater 24 Gin. The event was held at Drybar, which couldn't have been more perfect. I mean how cute is it to have some scrumptious spring cocktails while getting your hair done? I'll admit that I'm not too much of a gin gal, but after having some tasty mixes of Beefeater's new gin, I think I've changed my stance on the drink.

Casual (Leopard) Lover

I would classify myself as a fairly casual dresser. Though, believe it or not, there was a time in which pencil skirts dominated my closet. Found this one hiding in my closet and decided it was time to bring it back out. The great thing about this one is it tethers the line between dressy and casual. Dressy should I choose to wear it with a pair of pumps and fitted top. Casual when I pair it with flats and maybe even a quirky graphic tee (taking notes for next time, ha!). And the print? As far as I'm concerned, leopard is a must-have print for every closet.
