Last week, Snapette and The Bloggers’ Collective got together at Flying A, a SoHo boutique that carries a mix of contemporary and carefully curated vintage pieces. The decor inside is very cool and it’s definitely a shop I’ll visit again.
Snapette is an app that uses crowdsourced photos to provide a hyperlocal shopping experience to its users.
I snapped this clutch at Flying A with the app, and with Location Services turned on, I can see photos of products from other users at stores near my location. Pretty cool concept– something you’re looking for might be right across the street!
As someone who has a life goal of being an angel investor, I loved hearing about how Snapette was funded. Maybe one day I’ll be able to back a startup… sometime… in the distant future.
You can see me on the Snapette blog in photos from the event, but of course I took a few of my own.
Blogger friendship (blogship?) rings purchased from Flying A.

Crumbs!
Yes thanks for coming and trying out Snapette! And cool you want to be an angel investor eventually :)
It was so nice to meet you and everyone! Come back soon :)
Love the friendship rings! Too fun!
Haha, I look so sheepish in that picture above! As always, great job covering the event. Seriously, when do you take these pictures? I hardly ever see you doing so until I see all the great shots on your blog!
Apparently I’m just a super photo creeper… but you know I like unposed shots, sometimes people freeze when you point the camera at them!
Ha, that would be me! I can be so stiff sometimes- must work on that!
That app sounds really cool, but probably only somewhere like NYC where there would be enough people using it. If I were to try in my town, I’m pretty sure I’d be the only one.
Oh no, I didn’t think about that. Though maybe you might be surprised, and there are some fashionistas running around town that you didn’t know about.
