Elevate your Mood in a Floral Suit

“Dress to Impress,” what does this phrase mean to you?! Does it mean you should dress yourself in clothes that that will impress others, or does it simply mean you should be thoughtful with the clothes you put on your body? I’m here to remind you that you can actually elevate your mood in the right outfit! Here are three tips to make that happen every time you walk out the door. Think color Yep, I said it…incorporate color into your ensemble and stand out from the crowd. Colors can subconsciously and consciously affect our mood. Think about it, when someone brings you a colorful bouquet of flowers you can’t help but smile. Well, whether it is you impressed with the vibrant outfit you put together, or the people around you, it gives off positive vibes. Tip: introduce bright hues into your wardrobe beginning with shoes and accessories. Tame your Mane “Dressing up” does not stop with the articles of clothing you put on your body. Set aside time to primp your hair. Ever since I was a little girl, bad hair days turned into bad everything else days! When you feel “put together” in the […]

Wish List Wednesday: All Pinked Out

Contrary to the rest of the US, San Francisco is historically cold during the traditional “summer months.” Every year I look forward to the end of August when the temperatures begin to rise and it is finally dress and shorts weather. So for all my Bay Area girls, I dedicate this wish list to YOU! Click the Pink to Shop: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 It is no secret that I am the official pink lady…and 50 shades of pink remain hot for the fall.

How to Throw a Hot Tub Party

It is always hot tub weather in San Francisco, and entertaining friends and family is one of my favorite pastimes! I’m finally checking hot tub party off of my summer bucket list ✔️ and spilling the deets with you. Here is how I transformed #ClubKaplan into a tropical oasis. The Theme Always begin with a theme. The theme is the “glue” that holds the party together. Next, make a list of the decor and food items that remind you of the subject. I chose a tropical theme, and when I dream of the tropics, I fantasize about Hawaii! Now do you see where I am going with this?! The “Aloha” balloon banner, tiki umbrella, and palm print seat cushions totally set the scene. For an even beachier feel, I attached fishnet to the facade of the hot tub and hung artificial flowers from it. I am extra and I’m proud of it! Good Company and Good Food Once you have your party people are in order, plan your drink list and food menu. I wanted to serve something that was refreshing and delicious, and easy to drink in the hot tub! ButterCans are all of those […]

IGTV: Clear Accessories + Clever Life Hack

In today’s episode of Kelsey’s Kloset, radio host Shan of 99.7Now and I discuss clear accessories and clever life hacks…you already know how we feel about the whole clear shoe trend, but if you’re a concert goer, or travel often, you’re going to want to hear this one! Exhibit A: Clear bags are the waaaaay to go. And sometimes they are even required. Many sports venues and areas now prohibit traditional bags from being carried in the stadium. Now is the time to stock up on translucent bags. Luckily they are readily available in all different shapes and forms from many of your favorite retailers. Shan’s pretty pink clutch is from Akira, but for a similar tote, click here. Exhibit B: Live your best life at the airport with a membership to Clear! Global entry is not enough. I would have missed several flights by now, but Clear saved me. Become a Clear member and your time from the curb to the gate will be significantly less. It is the closet thing to owning a private plane. Simply enter the Clear security line, scan you fingers or eyes (I kid you not – you do not even need an […]

IGTV: Fashionable Pool Party Attire

In today’s episode of Kelsey’s Kloset, radio host Shan of 99.7Now and I discuss pool party attire, from my very own hot tub! There are two kinds of people who attend a pool party: those who dive right in, and those with no intention of getting their hair wet! Can you guess where Shan and I fall on the pool party spectrum?! #Divas. Regardless, arrive in style with these summer essentials! Exhibit A: A stylish sunglass is a MUST. This pair from Amazon is only $9.99 and will have heads turnin’. I wear them 2-3 times per week. For “fashpiration” click here, here, and here. Exhibit B: Waterproof eye makeup or BUST! There is no point in painting your face unless it’s going to last through the heat and quite possibly a dip in the pool. Perversion waterproof mascara by Urban Decay is always a reliable choice. Bye bye raccoon eyes! Exhibit C: A fashionable floatie…assuming you’ve watched the video, then you already know I am NOT the girl who dives right in. Ain’t no body got time for wet hair…especially after Glamsquad gave you a blowout. Cruz the water on a unicorn float! Although I fully support […]
