How to Navigate Barney's Warehouse Sale in SF- THIS WEEKEND!

Here are some great tips from Shop Darling on how to survive the Barney's Warehouse sale:

Rule #1.   Don't bring a bag.  You'll have to wait in line to check it and then again to pick it up.  Come equipped with your wallet, and nothing else.

Rule #2.  Since it's going to be hot outside anyway, wear the smallest, most slip-like dress you own. There aren't dressing rooms, and it's insanely crowded, so the less clothing you show up wearing, the easier it is to try on more.

Rule #3.  Same goes for shoes — flip flops are ideal.  Our fashion editor says, "Scan all the aisles of shoes to find the style you want, and then concentrate on finding your right size because they're usually mixed up and you can miss what you really want when it's hiding in the size 5's! Also, people stuff shoes in the back of the shelves behind the boots so check there"

Rule #5.  Don't buy something just because it's on sale.  As appealing as that wedding-like Rodarte dress may be, you're not going to wear it.  (Though if you're still thinking about it come September 5th, chances are it's still there, maybe $400 cheaper and only slightly more torn.)

Pics from my June photo shoot

As promised here are some of the pics that came out of my photo shoot at Barney's a couple of weeks ago.  It was a last minute throw-together for a book I am being published in (details to come).

here I am getting my hair done for the shoot

Thank you Jeremy for doing such a great job on my hair.  I swear I hand out more of his business cards than I do my own.  I've been trusting Jeremy with my troubled tresses for years, and you can too... here is his website: www.jeremyboatman.com.  You can check him out as well as his other clients on Facebook.  I'm getting a Brazilian blowout from him in a couple of weeks... stay tuned!

What do you think of all of the prints?

So smart, he hid his reflection behind the mannequin

My boobs look HUGE in this dress, so it will not be making it onto my site ;)

These are my favorite Burberry rain boots (yes they're rubber)

These are just a few of the many taken that afternoon.  My photographer, Patrick Roddie, was able to work with the schedules of the many people involved.  Thanks to Edward at Barney's for staying late at work and letting us take over his department.  And thanks to my sister in-law Alison for being such a trooper and coming with me to the shoot while being here in vacation.
