Community Q&A with @cvz15

Community darling Carol of @cvz15 talks with us about how Poshmark helped redefine her style during a special birthday, her Posh BFFs, and how she involves the entire family in the Posh process!

WHAT DOES POSHMARK MEAN TO YOU?
Poshmark started out of curiosity because I wanted to redefine my wardrobe due to a milestone birthday. Now I spend about 10-12 hours a day in the app, sharing other people’s listings and working on my own closet. The social networking aspect, getting to develop relationships and making connections with the outside world, is great. My Poshmark BFFs are @wenrella and @gordomom.

WHICH POSHMARKERS DO YOU LOOK TO FOR INSPIRATION?

@gordomom helped make me addicted to Poshmark; I think she has great cover shots. @styleluxe4less is very welcoming and informative when it comes to new users. @manymurrays is great at sharing listings a lot.
 
DEFINE YOUR CLOSET’S PERSONAL STYLE?
love color, peacock and classic style and Kate SpadeI am a former fashion flop turned suburbanite fashionista with a hint of glitz and glamour.
WHAT MAKES YOUR COVERSHOTS SPECIAL?
My family has been a huge help. My husband bought me a portable photo booth to snap photos of my jewelry. My daughter will model necklaces and earrings for me. I don’t like to take the same types of shots because it can get redundant. 

Steal Her Style: Miley Cyrus VMA Outfit

Talented singer, Buzznet writer, and power Posher Jessica (can we say triple threat?) is taking over the Poshmark blog to share her own take on Miley’s VMA outfit and how you can get this rockstar look for less than $100! If you are absolutely loving Jessica’s style tips, check out her fashion picks tomorrow night as she hosts the Edgy & Boho Babe Posh Party!

Ready, set, style!

With over 45,000 tweets a MINUTE about Miley Cyrus, I find it only fitting to talk about her AMAZING style transformation. Miley’s controversial VMA outfit has been on the minds of many since the awards aired on August 25th.

Unfortunately, the majority of the public has decided this is not an acceptable outfit. So I decided to recreate a more wearable version of the “We Can’t Stop” star’s revealing nude outfit in a more conventional and practical way!

And honestly, her choice of shoes was AMAZING! Who doesn’t love flatform creepers?! Pair this with some red lipstick, and you can have the entire look for under $100:

Nude High Neck Crop Top: $10 Retail $30

Black Pleather Hot Shorts: $18 Retail $55

Black Studded Flatform Creepers: $25 Retail $49

Gold Heart Necklace: $4

Rock on, Poshers!
