ALI GOLDEN SS15 GIVEAWAY

I FOUND OUT ABOUT ALI GOLDEN WHEN she reached out to me last fall and have since fallen in love with the Oakland-based designer's work, especially her jackets and coats (of which I own two). I was able to meet up with her briefly in her shop when I was visiting San Francisco earlier this year, and we've kept in touch ever since. You can find the other post I did on her fall collection here. Her pieces always fit perfectly and transition nicely throughout the year. My favorite piece from this current collection is the side gathered dress which is made out of a perfect breezy silk in the slash print that you see worn in this post. But I've also got my sights set on theSS15 Jumper in oatmeal.

We also did a giveaway together on Instagram for the silk peplum tank, but for those who didn't win, I've got another promotion for 40% off the v-neck midi dress in blue only also modeled below, using the code 'MELISSA' It drapes like a dream and can be worn layered with a slip or over pants for an effortless look. Perfect for spring and summer!
