Curvy Elle Lately

November 7, 2014

Since I last wrote a “Curvy Elle Lately” post, life has been in an upheaval for me. Here are some snippets of what has been going on in The Curvy Elle world. For more, make sure to follow me on Instagram.

1.  A few weeks ago I made a big life change and moved in with my boyfriend. I’m so happy we did this!

2.  I recently started another Etsy shop selling Children’s Vintage and Modern Fashion (shop: Elle Enfant). Here are a few pieces I recently photographed to add to the shop. Gotta love cute baby vintage denim!

3.  I was lucky enough to get to see Lena Dunham when her book tour, “Not That Kind of Tour,” for her new book Not That Kind of Girl came to San Francisco. She was hilarious and it was worth all the effort – plus everyone got an autographed copy of the book!

4.  A vintage Dooney & Bourke wallet I thrifted for myself and while cleaning it I came across this American Airlines card from the previous owner. Always fun to find treasures while thrifting.

5.  A hike in a preserve near my new house. I’m still getting to know my new area. This hike was beautiful – California at its finest!

6.  A customer sent me some photos of her styling of purchases from The Curvy Elle Shop. Check out more in the post I wrote, “Customer Appreciation: Michaela.”

I’ve been working on a few new venture lately and have had a few life things going on. Here are a few snippets via Instagram to give you guys a background on life lately here at The Curvy Elle!

1. I thrifted some vintage McCall’s girl’s dresses patterns recently, this sheet was included. Hard to believe this is real.

2. My new venture (which I have not formally announced on here and am still working on getting started), Elle Enfant. This new shop features Children’s Modern and Vintage Fashion.

3. My birthday was a few week’s ago and my boyfriend got me these lovely red sparkly “Dorothy” (as I refer to them) sunglasses.  (He even picked them out/suggested I try them on!) I love ‘em!

4. Lulu, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, likes my new sunglasses too!

5. I’ve been working on some handmade bow and other accessories. Coming soon to The Curvy Elle Shop! (One brooch is already for sale!) It makes me happy to try new things and make cute things.

6. Experimenting making headbands in addition to brooches! Not sure if these will make it to the shop or not… I’m still getting some of the fit kinks out.
