    I love helping my clients define their personal style. Most of the clients I work with just don’t know how to do it anymore… Or they do, but they really don’t have the time… Or, they have some really good pieces, but they don’t know how to put them together… Or, they walk into a store and don’t know where to start.. .Or, they know exactly what they want and they just need help finding it. You get the idea. I think I have the coolest job in the world, for me.

    Jessie Carlson Wardrobe has been going for over 10 years. When Nordstrom decided to open their doors in Vancouver, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. I joined the Nordstrom team in September and have had a ball dressing my clients, their husbands, and their children. There is something for everyone in the store.

  • What To Wear To A Summer Wedding

    July 29, 2009

    Assuming that all the brides have their dresses, we now have to focus on us, specifically me, and what am I going to wear to all the weddings this summer. As I mentioned, I am a complete wedding junkie and I am thrilled to be able to go to so many weddings this year. I thought if I posted what I am wearing, or at least what I am thinking about wearing, it may serve to inspire you in your wedding wear choices.

    A word of advice, before you go buy a last minute sundress that you don’t really like and will never wear again, consider your options. What do you already have? What will you wear again?

    Option A – For example, how great is this skirt? I realize it is hot, and I may faint of heat stroke, but imagine how little I care. I looove this skirt, I am going to wear it all through the fall. The skirt and top are both from one of my favourites Jonathan and Olivia.

    Skirt – Opening Ceremony

    Top – Surface to Air

    Shoes – A pair I found at Nordstrom last year and have gotten so much wear out of, simple black heels, love.

    Option B – Vintage, I am crazy about the feather pattern, are you kidding me? Love it. Here’s the thing, even if you don’t like it, it doesn’t matter, I love it, and ugly is the new cool.

    Dress – Vintage, came from a girlfriend, an outstanding girlfriend.

    Shoes – Same as above, a Nordstrom find. To be honest I am not crazy about them, I think I gotta find another pair..

    Option C – Vintage, I love vintage, I love how inexpensive it is, I love that I can alter it to fit me exactly, and I love that it has a history. Plus I kinda feel all righteous because my carbon footprint is smaller in this dress.

    Dress – Vintage  from rock n’ rose in Portland.

    Shoes – Chie Mihara.

    Option D – Phillip Lim, if it is sweltering, which it may be, I will still wear Option A because I am just like that, but in the interest of showing you some other options.. The only thing about this one is that it may be too short, inappropriate if you will. However, to quote my husband when I comment on his hair, ‘if it’s too long, your too old’.

    Dress – Phillip Lim.

    A word about these pictures, it is hot, as you know, and because I decided that I wanted to take them ‘right now’ my sweet husband agreed to try his hand at photography in the parking garage of our building. The interior of the parking garage is hotter than it is outside, it defies logic, I know, but that’s the truth. Any lack of professionalism in the shots is due to fact that Ben, my sweet husband, is not a professional and we were both too hot to really care. I hope you understand.

    Weddings and Pictures..

    June 23, 2009

    Last summer my sweet Ben and I got married. It was fabulous, and since then I have become a complete wedding junkie. I had no idea this would happen to me, as I imagined myself a rather low maintenance bride (and I was, my sisters confirmed this). However, all the beauty, romance, style and love came together and in such an amazing way that I got hooked. I loved every minute of our wedding. I have since found myself on various wedding websites, hovering around the bridal magazines at Chapter’s, and stopping every time I see a wedding. I am the weird woman across the street clapping her hands and sighing, isn’t she beautiful?!..

    We were lucky enough to book Jenna and Tristan, they are so fabulous and so busy, and they graciously photographed our wedding with such insane talent that Real Weddings Magazine used our wedding as a feature in the most recent issue.

    I know I said that I was going to write about length of pants and bags, and I will, I promise. I just thought I might indulge in a little weddingness.I adore weddings, I love brides, and I love going wedding dress shopping. I feel honored anytime anyone asks for my help choosing a wedding dress. Call me and I can take you to the best bridal boutiques in the city, and help you find the perfect dress. If you already have your dress, and are about to get married, enjoy every second of it.
