5 Updates in 6 1/2 Minutes // Episode 7 // Sammy D TV from Sammy Davis on Vimeo.

This was supposed to be 5 updates in 5 minutes, but I’m still working on that part.

So, here’s the recap in 5 bullet points, to compensate for that extra 1 1/2 minutes.

*I relaunched my site! Check it! www.sammydvintage.com
*I was in Philly/Temple U yesterday to convert a Mini DV to DVD for the ROAD TRIP 2010 PITCH VIDEO!
*I am launching on Market Publique — the online vintage marketplace — TODAY, March 2nd
*The Fresh Prince of New York event is this Sunday, March 7th — don’t miss it!
*I am styling for StyleCaster this FRIDAY!

Short, sweet, and to the point.

But much more entertaining in video form.

These pants are a shining example of all of the above.
The story? I wanted to dress comfy. The true story? I didn’t want to wear sweatpants.
Sammy D loathes sweatpants. [but [...]

Old School Haircut = Old School Shirt

So, maybe it was a few weeks ago that I got my haircut.
But the pre-haircut-outfit is still sort of relevant, right? Right?!
Sigh. Well, this has been in draft since February 13th. It’s now February 24th.
But the beauty with vintage is that as the days pass, it becomes more … vintage?
So yeah. This post = better [...]

How to Dress Like a Chic Genie in 3 Pieces or Less

Like last Monday, Saturday was a fantastic day.
And that’s where I’m going to stop waxing poetic, because this blog is not an outlet to write about my fantastic & not so fantastic days. Although you gotta admit, the fantastic days are usually on days when I wear the best outfits, anyway.
But moving on. Saturday was [...]

Independent Fashion Bloggers Conference: Life, Love, & the Pursuit of Blogging with Style, Substance & Authenticity

Monday, February 15th was my favorite day of 2010 so far.
No, not because it was the day after Valentine’s Day and I was glad not to be reminded that I have no boyfriend or, for that matter, no boyfriend in sight.
No, not because it was roughly one month and one day until I turned 24 [...]
