Concert Outfit

Again, I am behind on my posts! In August, I took a little trip down to Los Angeles to see my favorite band in the whole wide world. Yeah, I am kind of a groupie. They all know me and I hang out with them after the show. It is fun and something that I have been doing since my college years. Gosh, that dates me doesn't it? Anyway, I decided to pack only kikaPaprika items on this trip and it was fun! 

First up was my outfit that I wore on the plane and I had one of the gals who checked me in at my hotel take the first photo. They had a resident bird in their lobby too. It was a quaint little hotel but the most amazing thing was that it was right across the street from my concert. Sweet! 

I also wanted a small hands-free bag for this trip so I asked my very good customer and Miche Bag leader to get this awesome cross-body bag. It was fabulous and perfect for this trip! In fact, I still use it and tuck it into my bigger bags and totes. LOVE IT!

Daphne in White (custom color) ~ $89
Loren in Peony (previous season item) ~ $65
Twill Capris in White (previous season item) ~ $88
Hip Bag in Black by Miche Bag ~ $34.95

Next up was my concert outfit and it was the perfect outfit for this event. I felt a little dressy but way super comfortable. The top is my own but it had a little bit of sparkle that I thought the skirt needed.

Portia convertible skirt/dress in Alligator print (signature color) ~ $105

Loren in Stripes

I have fallen behind on my blog posts and completely skipped a few outfits that I meant to post. This one was something I wore back in August when I was first getting items from the Fall Collection. It was hot so I wore a very basic outfit. It isn't exciting really but I was really happy with how Loren looks in the stripe fabric. People ask me about this shirt a lot! Funny how different it looks as a solid or a stripe.

Loren in Winter White/Black stripe (signature color) ~ $70
Twill Capris in Khaki (previous season item) ~ $88

Emily in Merlot is Stunning!

I have been waiting anxiously for my fall samples to arrive and most of them are here so it is time for you to shop! I recently got this piece and wasn't sure about it when I saw it in the Collection Summary (which is online now!) ... However, once I put it on I fell in LOVE! It feels like your most comfortable, beat up sweatshirt but has a unique style and shape that will be turning heads. People are bound to ask you where you got it! It is a sweatshirt trench coat in a way? I love the hood/collar and how you can style it a few different ways. Plus, around here in the Pacific NW it is nice to have a hood to pull over your hair because we really don't do umbrellas around here. 

This is definitely a piece people will have to try on and I can show you have you can get it for just $42.50! 

Don't forget to check out my website with all the updated styles and colors. There are some items not even on the website like Emily!

I found this to be a fun activity on my Facebook page and thought I should share it here too. This season, kikaPaprika is offering a few different hand dyed prints and I wanted to see which one is the most popular with my clients. So tell me ... which one do you like best?

Welcome to Fall 2013!

Gosh, I have been busy getting ready for the kids to start school and figure out our new schedules. Plus, I have been getting new clothing for the Fall 2013 Collection. I have fallen behind a bit on posting photos of my outfits. I know I have photos of things I still need to post. Maybe once things settle down a bit I can get back into a routine. 

In the meantime, check out two new posters I will be adding to my display. One highlights some of our outfits this season and the second one highlights our sizing chart and all the great things about kikaPaprika. Let me know what you think!

Which is your favorite this season?
