I am going to Paris next week. A Californian in Paris in December can be a total disaster. I want to be outfitted for all of the elements. I read that Paris could be wet and cold. I decided against my Alpaca wool coat, as I will end up smelling like a wet animal while strolling through town. In order to stroll, I must be warm and water proof. I believe I have found the solution, and it is even on sale. The only issue is that I do not look like a chic Parisian woman, I look like a marshmallow puff. I think I have to give up on fashion in order to stay warm. Just call me "Puffy P."

After yesterday's fashion mishap, I decided to play it safe and subdued. My whole outfit, including painful, never to be worn again shoes, were made by Gap or Banana Republic.
The only kid commentary today was as to why I was wearing painful shoes. My answer, they are cute.
Note my special accessory, the mini van key.

I would post more photos, but my Iphone sucks...yes, it does! After the kids went to school, I did my typical run to Whole Foods, met Shalini for coffee, and hit the sale racks at Gap and J. Crew for some spring basics. Great deals at Gap! Now it is time for school pick ups, and swim team...and of course I spent too much time on Twitter.
I was in the Gap in San Francisco today, and found Product Red for kids. There was a great assortment of shirts, sweat shirts and, tank tops for babies and kids up to a size 12. Julian and Noah loved the styles, it is rare to find a style that they both agree upon. I picked up shirts for all of the kids, and we decided that they would wear these for our annual family photo on Cape Cod. According to the sales girl at Gap, these items will only be featured in select stores. There are a few choices online as well.
I received a few calls from friends yesterday urging me to rush to the GAP to check out their new designer limited edition merchandise. I was in the middle of school pick ups, so I did not go...but, when I saw the designs online, I knew I had to check them out. Many were already sold out. Luckily, I scored a few new pieces this morning. All of the designs were in white, and designed by the CFDA Vogue winners. These are up an coming designers. According to the sales woman at GAP, some of the items are already on EBAY. This is what I bought :
This is a dress that I will wear as a shirt. I think it is too short for someone may age to wear as a dress.
Both are well made, and do not look or feel like ordinary GAP merchandise. If you like white, and want to buy something from three designers that are sure to grace the pages of Vogue, head down to your local GAP now !
