We're lucky at gather; we spend all day selling lovely things and we get to meet some wonderful people. One of our favorite customers is Sakai, a Bay Area native with a beautiful voice that takes her all over the world. 2014 was a busy year for Sakai: as a backing singer for Train she performed at huge venues and festivals worldwide, and was a regular on national TV!

We love hearing about her adventures, and of course seeing her looking stunning in her gather purchases! A truly inspirational lady, we can't wait to see what's next for Sakai. Follow her on facebook to find out more.

This is the first post in our gather guys and girls series. All the items in gather tell a story of its craftsmen and women, but where does the story go next? We'd love to see how you style your gather purchases and live with our homewares. Send us a picture at hello@gathersf.com!
