How would you describe your style?
"My style evolves all the time. I generally lean toward the unexpected and, as of late, it has included a lot of Kansai Yamamoto."


Do you have any insider vintage shopping tips you care to share?
"Start collecting Carole Little and Chico's! They will be vintage before you know it and you will have a head start!"


What do you love about Oakland right now?
"I love that there are a lot of innovative, creative, and motivated people opening small businesses in Oakland. Honestly, I often shop outside of the area, but I am finding more and more that my money is staying in Oakland!"


What are some of your favorite local haunts?
"I think admitting that I have a self-imposed ban from Esqueleto speaks volumes."

We spy Lula! Oh, and another sweet tattoo and steppers.
