It is apparently “Beige Day” here on EmilyStyle.com! Beige is really my least favorite color but I do love these pants, these cards and my new wallet! At least it is more of a pearl color than a true beige. I bought the Hobo International Cate wallet at Nordstrom on sale for only $34 this…

Three pounds of clearance Crane’s stationary just arrived in the mail. I am soo happy with my purchase! Especially these correspondence cards with gold star engraving. I completely forgot about how nice the Crane’s boxes are (click here for a fuzzy camera phone picture). Each set came packaged in it’s own dark blue box with…

What a fabulous name for cute pants – Super Trousers! Honestly, I think they deserve the title. I bought these pants on sale from French Connection yesterday and love them! Mine have tiny brown and blue pinstriping. Paired with some tall, brown Kenneth Cole pumps these pants make my legs look a mile long.

Last weekend felt entirely too short. With the weather taking a turn for the cold and foggy, I wasn’t feeling very motivated. On Friday night, Rob and I had planned to try out the new seafood restaurant in our neighborhood. It turns out that Woodhouse Fish Company was more expensive than we anticipated and we…

Nicole just alerted me to this great deal! If you are planning on seeing “The Break-Up” this weekend, book your tickets with Fandango using your MasterCard. The two companies have teamed up to offer a “buy one ticket, get one free” deal for this movie. With a movie ticket in San Francisco costing at least…

What a week! It seems like this summer is already flying by. Now if the wind would just stop, the weather outside would be ideal. Here are some of the things I learned this week: Shoe Wiz in the San Francisco Shopping Center does a great job but they are a little expensive. The Body…

Rob and I arrived at kickball a half hour early last night. Instead of just going to wait in the park (my idea), Rob had the good plan to walk around Japantown. This is one of the only neighborhoods we hadn’t yet explored. We were missing out! From the outside, Japantown doesn’t look inspiring. Unlike…

Toynette, Trent’s mom and a reader of this blog, sent over a great recipe for grilled peaches today. I don’t currently have a barbeque, probably since I also don’t have a yard or balcony. But if the good weather continues, I just may have to invest in one for the back stairs. Or I could…

Ah, the office! My home away from home. The start of summer serves as a reminder as to just how much time you spend at work. Luckily, I just finished a minor office remodel and my space is looking pretty nice. Here are my tips for a happy cubicle: Wicker baskets – This basket from…

Nicole’s at it again. So demanding! Here’s what my favorite unofficial editor has to say: I think you should do a cheap…but nice jewelry/accessory section. I need to accessorize more. Not too trendy…some things I could wear for a while. I love Banana’s accessories – they have a lot of them online now, but they…
