San Diego Store Spotlight: The Beat Clothing Blogger Party + Dressing up Neon

There is only one way to describe The Beat Clothing Boutique, and it is unique! If you are the type of person that loves unique pieces that no one else has, this is the place for you. Located in Carlsbad California, The Beat is the sister store of Ragz Dressware, an affordable fashion store that strives to bring celebrity styles to everyday people.

A couple of weeks ago, San Diego Style Bloggers were invited to a blogger party at The Beat. The store owner, Diana, and her staff, Kelly and Ali, were amazing. They were welcoming and took the time to explain to each of us more about the boutique. The Beat has a rocker vibe all over, from the clothing items, to the fitting rooms filled with rock albums, The Beat is a place were you can find the most daring and cute clothing pieces and accessories. 

 But, besides the apparel and jewelry, I was surprised by their sunglasses. Diana explained to me that their sunglasses have a lifetime warranty,  and that her clients have been surprised by the great customer service they receive from the company when they request a repair. The sunglasses are affordable and super trendy, I recommend them 100%. The ones I tried on were approximately $14 dls.

I had an awesome night at The Beat Clothing boutique. I enjoyed looking around the store and contemplating the art. Thank you for having us! I was also very happy to see my amazing blogger buddies, Cy of Any2ndnow, Laura Neuzeth, Pat of PatFlor and Amber of Face it Catalog. Amber, welcome to #sdstylebloggers! :) 

If you live in San Diego, The Beat Clothing is a great place to stop by and shop. It is located in:
2971 State Street, Carlsbad, California 92008

Solo hay una palabra para describir la boutique The Beat, y esa palabra es única. Si eres el tipo de persona que le gusta usar cosas que nadie mas tiene, este es un buen lugar. Localizada en la ciudad de Carlsbad, California, The Beat es la tienda hermana de Ragz Dressware, una tienda de ropa accesible que trae estilos de celebridades a las personas como tu y como yo.

Hace unas semanas, The Beat invito a bloggers locales a su tienda. La dueña, Diana, y sus trabajadoras, Kelly y Ali, nos trataron increíble. La vibra de la tienda es super rockera y chic a la vez. Tienen piezas para todo mundo. Si me sigues en mi canal de Youtube donde muestro mis vlogs "diarios" entonces ya viste varias de las piezas que tienen. Lo que mas me gusto fueron los vestidores que estaban llenos de álbumes. Aqui puedes encontrar desde cosas conservadoras, hasta las cosas mas atrevidas!

Pero aparte de su ropa y joyeria, una de las cosas que mas me gusto fueron sus lentes de sol. La marca que ellos manejan te da una garantia de por vida. Si los rompes o los dañas, la compañia te los repara o te mandan uno nuevo. Tienen muy bonitos estilos y los precios son muy economicos. Los que me medí costaban solo $14 dls.

La verdad me la pase increible en la tienda The Beat. Me encanto mirar todas las cosas bellas que tenian y contemplar el arte. The Beat, Muchas gracias por invitarnos! Tambien me encanto que pude convivir con bloggeras como Cy de Any2ndnow, Laura Neuzeth, Pat de PatFlor  y Amber de Face it Catalog. 

Si vives en San Diego, The Beat Clothing es el lugar perfecto para ir de compras. La tienda esta localizada en:
2971 State Street, Carlsbad, California 92008

Fitting Room Confessions: Kardashian Kurves




Sears is home to the Kardashian Clothing line. Some time ago the Kardashian line expanded their repertoire to add plus size clothing, and I was not very impressed. However, I recently went to my nearest Sears and tried a couple of their new clothing pieces. Here is my review:

Selection:
As far as the plus size line goes, the selection is quite good. They have dresses, jeans, pants, tops, blazers, and fitness attire. The colors are trendy and the patterns are fashion forward. 

Price and Quality:
The prices in this line are extremely steep and the quality of some of their pieces is simply not worth spending retail price. However, Sears, at least when I went, had amazing deals on their jeans and a 40% off on other items. 

Fit:
The fit of 99.9% of the things that I tried is irregular. I had to go up a size or two on certain pieces, which is why my fitting room confessions is so short. I got tired of leaving the fitting room to exchange pieces. The jeans that I tried, however, are pretty true to size, extremely comfortable, and super stretchy. 

Pros: 
The Kardashian Kurves line is very complete and trendy. They have a variety of styles and patterns that will sure fit your style. They also have accessories to complement your outfit. 

Cons:
The quality of some of the pieces seemed to be a little low for the price and the irregular fitting can get a little annoying at times. Fortunately, they do go up to a size 24, but I hate having to dress and undress to go get a new size.

Here are some of the pieces I tried. The jeans (blue and "coral") I had to buy. THEY ARE AMAZING!

Sears es la casa de la linea de ropa Kardashian. Unos meses atras esta linea se expandio a incluir en su repertorio una linea de ropa "plus" llamada Kardashian Kurves. Inicialmente no me gusto mucho lo que ofrecían, pero en esta visita a la tienda Sears si quede complacida. Aqui esta mi reseña:

Selección:
En cuestión de la linea plus, la seleccion es buena ya que cuenta con vestidos, pantalones, blusas, sacos, y ropa deportiva. Tambien, los colores e imprenta son a la moda. 


Precio y Calidad:
Los precios de esta linea son extremadamente altos para la calidad de la ropa. Lo bueno es que Sears por lo regular tiene buenas ventas. Cuando fui tenían el 40% de descuento en la mayoría de las piezas. Yo, en lo personal, no pagaría el precio regular por ellas.

El Corte:
El corte del 99.9% de la ropa que me probe es irregular. Tuve que agarrar una o dos tallas mas grande en algunas piezas, lo cual es la razon por la cual mi post del dia de hoy es corto. Me canse de entrar y salir del vestidor para cambiar tallas. Los jeans que me probe si son a la medida, aparte de que son mega comodos y super stretch. 


Pros:
La linea Kardashian Kurves esta muy completa y tiene cosas a la moda. Tienen variedad y estilos que seguramente te gustaran. También tienen accesorios que complementan tus atuendos.


Contras: 
La calidad de alguna de las piezas es relativamente baja por el precio que la venden. Tambien, el corte irregular puede ser algo que como consumidora me desespero. Afortunadamente, tienen medidas del 18-24. 

Aqui abajo les dejo algunas de las cosas que me probe. Los jeans (azules y coral) los tube que comprar. SON LO MAXIMO! Pronto un Haul!
