Hello! I'm Kim, I have 20+ years of experience in online sales, and have officially been in business for myself since 2011. I went to college for fashion design and merchandising, and have a particular love of bright and fun fabrics! My business sprouted from a desire to stay home with my new baby and still contribute, here we are years later, the "baby" is now a teenager! You may find her occasionally modeling, and sharing items in the Poshmark closet. My husband of 16 years contributes by sharing, and is the "spine" behind the scenes, doing all the heavy lifting and physical work for inventory management. We do not use any bots or "borrowed" stock photos, everything we have here is our own work. I have served as a community mentor for several online sales platforms and am fortunate to have made many great friends from "colleagues" over the years.
I am also a paper crafter with a YouTube channel, focused on making greeting cards, which I sell online on a popular handmade site under the same trade name. I love to read, cook and bake, nap, listen to true crime and history podcasts, and play video games! I have mobility issues due to spine injuries and degeneration related to scoliosis, so quite a bit of my spare time in recent years revolves around more passive activities and indoor hobbies. I have a black thumb but desperately love plants :( We have cats and a rabbit, all beloved and very spoiled!
My personal favorite comfy clothing brand is Universal Standard.

@applepinenh Welcome! Where are you from?
Oct 04Reply

applepinenh
@thedarkorchid We came from the very center of PA, Bellefonte, near Penn State. It was a high turnover area, which was great for Poshing.
Oct 04Reply

thedarkorchid
@applepinenh oooh. Sourcing is not as easy here, you have to go south. Maybe we can meet up for coffee and shop talk sometime!

applepinenh
@thedarkorchid I would love that!

@applepinenh Yay! I have my IG link at the top of my closet if we want to connect in private lol. I have a school aged kiddo so mornings usually work best for me!

@thedarkorchid Mornings are my kryptonite, but I’m trying to get better about that. I just followed you on IG.
Oct 04Reply

thedarkorchid
@applepinenh Maybe more of a lunch date then lol. I followed you back! You can DM me there any time! Do you go to Claremont at all? I think that might be the halfway-ish point between us.
Oct 04Reply

applepinenh
@thedarkorchid I do go down to Claremont quite a bit. Buying an old house = live at Home Depot.
Oct 04Reply

thedarkorchid
@applepinenh oh my gosh, that’s too funny lol. My husband is one of the managers for a different Home Depot location. It seems like he lives there too LOL. Maybe we can do coffee soon! Weekdays will be best for me because my kiddo won’t have to be dragged!

Hello! I love this dress for my nephew's wedding- is this a true size 10? Does it run smaller?
Jun 05Reply

thedarkorchid
@borabora2021 Hi! This question isn’t on a specific item so I’m not sure what we’re referring to. I do usually provide measurements of the actual garments in my descriptions to help you decide, and of course if it is a current item usually there are product reviews online that might mention sizing. Most items were not personally mine so I don’t have a personal opinion about the sizing :)
Jun 05Reply

borabora2021
@thedarkorchid... its for the Kay Unger rose cocktail dress. I recently ordered a size 10 dress online and it was a little snug. I would really love this dress for an upcoming wedding
Jun 05Reply

thedarkorchid
@borabora2021 Oh, you have great taste! That’s a stunning dress, the fabric is so much nicer than my photography skills!
Jun 05Reply

borabora2021
@thedarkorchid ... It looks beautiful and I would like to try it- can I return it if its too tight? I think I may need to lose a few pounds
Jun 05Reply

thedarkorchid
@borabora2021 I’m so sorry, but Poshmark doesn’t support returns, everything here is final sale :(. I googled the style name and am looking to see if there are reviews somewhere that mention the sizing.
Jun 05Reply

thedarkorchid
@borabora2021 I haven’t found anything specific in this dress but the Kay Unger site on another similarly structured cocktail dress they recommend to size up if between sizes.

@thedarkorchid ... ok, thank you. I will think it over and make a decision in the morning. I appreciate your help
