The other day, I met up with Elaine from Clothed Much. She’s the best wardrobe remixer I know and it was awesome to meet her in real life.
We had lunch at Cafe Laurent and hopped over to Santa Monica Place and 3rd Street Promenade for some retail therapy. Needless to say, we talked a lot and walked a lot as we meandered through.
She must be a lucky charm because she was with me when I scored the best deal yet…Theory trousers for $25 at Crossroads. I love Theory pants, but the cost pains me to the core. So finding them in my size and in great condition was the cherry on top of a delicious sundae.
Meeting a new friend and encountering such a find…what more can I ask for?
Outfit Details: Madewell tee – XS, Forever 21 skirt- S, Muzina sandals, Colehaan Saddle Soft Satchel (For info on what Elaine was wearing, check out her blog at ClothedMuch.com)

Lol…wearing the same grey madewell tee right now. Looks like yall had fun! What a find on the Theory pants. I once found a tweed theory skirt that fit perfectly at Marshall’s for $10…it made my year pretty much haha.
Wow a tweed Theory skirt?! That’s amazing! I’ve been hunting for a tweed skirt since I saw the Fall 2010 collections but I’m in no rush to get one yet. =)
Blogger meet ups seem like so much fun. Too bad no one I follow closely lives in CT.
I am so jealous of you, there are no consignment stores near where I live and I get my fix of Theory through Bloomies which isn’t the best place to hunt down deals for petites. $25 trousers, I can’t wait to see you in them.
Congrats on the great bargain! Definitely show us how they look soon. Btw, have you met up with Kelly? If she’s ever in LA again, we should definitely have a PFB meet up!
I haven’t but we should definitely set up something! It would be great to meet in person! =)
Aww you girls are cute!! Thanks for sharing this–I’m not officially obsessed with Elaine’s blog!
Also, I really should check out Crossroads. There was one in Downtown Berkeley and I used to find such great things there. Will have to check it out next time I’m in the area!
Major typo, I meant “I’m now officially obsessed” with her blog.
Cute splashes of purple in your outfit! I hope you post up the theory trousers at some point. =0D
I’ve had brunch at Cafe Laurent before! hahaha I love their scalloped potatoes.
And I love Elaine’s blog (and yours too, of course!). You both look adorable.
Thanks! The potatoes are awesome and so are the omelettes too! =)
