Out And About: Ginger At Oak Common.

A few weeks ago, at Justina Blakeney's book signing in Berkeley, I met Lisa Fontaine,  co-founder of Ginger, a line of caftans (loose fitting tunics) made in San Francisco that are soon becoming our Bay Area's go-to-attire.  During our chats, Lisa and I bonded over our love for 70's fashion and our entrepreneurial spirit.  She invited me to her Fall Trunk show at Oak Common in Oakland, where I met her partner, Nanette Mervin, and got to see how her designs are worn.  Regardless of your body type, the caftan is quite flattering.  Worn with leggings or without, heels or boots, any woman can wear one and rock the look.  I picked up my first caftan last night and I'm pretty sure it won't be my last.  Take a look at some of the images from that evening, and check out their website for autumn colors and styles.
