Meet your Posher, Monica

Hi! I'm Monica. Thanks for stopping by! I've been living in Seattle my whole adult life since being transplanted here when I was a Navy kid - I love all that this beautiful city has to offer! Recently married (late), and retired (early), I started my journey with Poshmark to downsize my large wardrobe. As a former finance/accounting professional I acquired a wardrobe from working across several industries, from tech, to manufacturing, to retail, to foodservice and hotels, to banking. I've never forgotten the advice from my mom, that if you want to be a professional you need to look like one. And with a passion for clothes, I've always dressed the part - whether it be hip and mod, casual, or conservative. I also had a dream of running my own business and once left my finance career to open a women's store. It was an amazing journey, and although I couldn't make through the recession in 2009, and lost a ton, I've never regretted the risky adventure - the lessons learned, and personal growth achieved. All worth the risks! Now I care a lot about sustainability - hooked on thrifting and cutting waste. There's so much to go around! Poshmark is the perfect platform to spread the joy of my finds while also having a small part in helping to save our environment through reuse and resale, while also making a few bucks to help sustain my journey in retirement. I hope you enjoy my closet, and feel free to leave me a comment so that I can check out your too. :) Monica ❤️
