November Sponsors

It's official! November marks the 3 year anniversary of this blog, AND it is also the month in which I officially accepted sponsorships for the Citizen Rosebud. So without further ado, let me share with you the lovely people and businesses who now sponsor the Citizen Rosebud:
I am absolutely touched by the rousing support that has been offered me, online and off. Thank-you all- both sponsors and readers for allowing me the opportunity to make a living in fields of interest that I love: writing + fashion!

Let me give you a quick introduction to some of these lovely people:

Equine Bovine- Equine Bovine is the personal style blog of Kerry Dolan, a dear + personal friend of mine, who also happens to be my co-publisher for Street Style Sacramento.  Kerry is one of the sellers at one of the finest vintage boutiques in Sacramento, Crimson & Clover, and she is determined to share her passion for fashion. She is a city girl with a country heart.

Funkoma Vintage- Funkoma Vintage is an online shop from Seattle, Washington. Funkoma Vintage is right up my alley; their motto is "We like it Secondhand, and we like it Handmade." Funkoma Vintage is full of vintage clothing for men, women and kids, as well as vintage housewares and furnishings. To make matters more delicious, Tressie, the lady behind Funkoma Vintage, also designs a line of hand-made goods under the moniker of That Yountville Girl.

Fringe- I think I've mentioned Fringe before....so to refresh your memory on this first-rate Sacramento shop click HERE.

Karina Dresses- Another possibly familiar name to my readers is Karina Dresses. Straight out of Brooklyn, Karina Dresses is an woman-owned American company makes "dresses for every body." A couple of months ago, I was honored by Karina Dresses to be chosen to be one of their brand ambassadors, and I've been enjoying my Karina Dresses ever since!

Kirsten Marie- A longtime blogger buddy of mine, Kirsten Marie is a personal style blogger who has also taken the plunge and opened an online shop. I enjoy her outfit posts, her reviews on beauty products and now we all have the opportunity to shop her closet! You can read her blog HERE, and shop the shop HERE.

Martin Mattox- Martin Mattox is the vintage home furnishing line of Arbogast Design.  If you want impeccable and livable interiors, you work with the interior designers at Arbogast Design. For inspiration and the best curated collection of fun & funky furniture and curios, you shop Martin Mattox.  Martin Mattox is now located at 3 Northern California locations.

Nakate Project-  Founder Shanley Knox is a sister-from-another mister who believes that fashion can save the world. She created the Nakate Project to help one of the poorest villages in Uganda, Africa, and has set up a way to empower the women of the village to generate a viable income for themselves and their families. The Nakate Project produces limited editions of this African-made jewelry and showcases it in a high fashion context. 

The Style Confessions- The Style Confessions is the personal style blog of L.A. based doll designer Heather Fonseca. Heather's blog happens to be one of my must-read blogs on my blogroll. Heather is a plus-forty fashion lover, and with her wonderful outfits posts, her smart street style captures and informative articles on fashion history and doll design, she has me returning week after week for more of her style confessions.

Style Made By Hand- Style Made By Hand is the personal style blog of Susan Tiner. Newly retired, Susan uses her blog to explore her journey personal style and craft, and shares with her friends and readers her ventures into hand-sewn clothing. Sharing her love of textiles and texture, color and character, Susan allows us into her living room and wardrobe and gives us a glimpse of the woman behind the garment.
