COAT WEATHER (MINI-POST)

    "Winter" has landed in LA! It's been quite nippy here--enough to break out the coats. I rarely get to wear any of my heavier outerwear and though I've done my fair share of shivering while braving our  "arctic" weather, I'm doing it in style. (Today's coat is a rather special one, it used to belong to my Nana.) Coat weather: oh what a fun time to be had!

A 60's KIND OF X-MAS (MINI HOLIDAY POST)

      Santa brought the loveliest dress for me, full of blooming, fuzzy flowers and bits of sparkle! (His elves must shop at ModaOperandi too!) For Christmas Day, I paired this stunning dress with my Miu Miu Mary Janes for a homage to the 1960's--the kind of 60's I love (feminine, colorful and just plain ladylike.) 

      Hope everyone has a lovely New Year! xxx awooooo!

Dress: Suno NY

TWISTIN' FRINGE: MINI POST

     For a quiet family dinner out in Brentwood, I wore this amazing fringe camisole by Donna Karen NY. This camisole makes any pair of jeans into an instant party! Warning: This top may cause you to twist and shout uncontrollably. Grab a partner and have a ball.

TWIRLING UNDER THE STARS

     There are few dresses that can transport you to another time and this Milly dress is one of them. The minute I put it, I instantly felt like I should be dancing through the stars with Fred Astaire. Since that wasn't an option, I settled for twirling in my garden and carrying the moon by my side to a sweet night at the Viceroy Hotel.

SMALL BITE OUT OF THE BIG APPLE: PART TWO (MINI POST)

After Paris, we headed back to the States. We stopped and rested for a few days in one of my favorite haunts: New York City.

BONJOUR FROM PARIS: PART ONE

        Every year after summer, I go away for a week. This time, I had the chance to go visit Paris for the first time and we stayed at the charming, luxurious Le Bristol. Nestled in the city of Paris, along the famous Saint Honore with a beautiful garden restaurant and supermodel cats, Le Bristol was like a second home. Our room came with a wonderful terrace which we used every day. There's nothing like stepping into a quiet Parisian morning, enjoying a cup of tea surrounded by timeless beauty.
