LV SERIES 2 + JAX

Following my lovely visit to Hello Kitty, I ventured over to the Louis Vuitton exhibit on Highland. It was a scorching hot day in town, I'm talking "sweating before you even walk" hot. The minute I stepped through the doors, I was greeted by the neon glow of the famous LV,  and somehow, in the glow of it all, I was transported into a world of "coolness." The show balanced history, today and the future all in one space. I have to say, not only was the art wonderful to gaze at (you'd be amazed at how much time and detail goes into every single thing) but the crowds were inspiring as well. Maybe it was the fashionable names that came attached with this exhibit but everyone was dressed to the nines; flashing their sense of style as quick as the pulsating videos in the show. There was even a class field trip going on! I mean, how cool is that? Probably the thing that topped the whole day was seeing a fuzzy face poking out of a cobalt blue Hermes Birkin. That alone made me want to hurry home to go see my own furry baby.

Second favorite thing? The free sticker wall with Louis Vuitton branded items reflecting the latest collection. 

HEATWAVE

Walked around the historic Greystone Mansion on one of the hottest days in Los Angeles. Quite taken back by the sheerness of the gardens but also the loneliness of the place. Spent the rest of the day lounging by the pool, what a day.

HAPPY 4TH!

July 4th was a hot one here in Los Angeles. Spent the day with my husband and some of my best friends, having delicious tacos and cold deep dish apple pie. A perfect summer day to celebrate our Independence and to wear one of the most Americana styles to me, gingham and of course, red, white and blue!

COLORFUL+1950s

     Spent the beginning of my weekend going to a early matinee showing of "Godzilla" with my husband. Unfortunately, there was a mix up at the movie theater and we were unable to watch it till that night. Rather than going home, disappointed and annoyed, we decided to enjoy our morning with one another. We walked leisurely, window shopped, picked up some lunch and purchased some "His and Her" reading materials to enjoy when the weather cools off. 

     Of course, a great outfit helps lightens any mood and this one was especially cheery. I couldn't help but feel that this JAX/Zara combo outfit complete with my "Brigitte Bardot" Charlotte Olympia clutch was not only the perfect choice for the hot weather but also, a wonderful nod to the 1950's and a summering Carrie Bradshaw.

Thank Godzilla, it's Friday!

KITTENISH: MINI POST

      Last couple days, I've been feeling the feline height and wearing my Miu Miu heels everywhere.  Not only do they make you feel like a real lady, they're beyond comfortable and they make my exit a bit of a party. Meow!

COLORAMA-RAMA-RAMA-DING-DONG!

If you've been following me on Instagram lately, you might already know how excited I am with my Chanel "Colorama" bag! Aside from the fact that it's Chanel and most, if not all Chanel bags, are somewhat stunning, there were two reasons why I was drawn to this particular bag: 1. that it's colorful and 2. that it's an homage to art or in my opinion, water coloring. Needless to say, my next few outfits were designed be canvases to show off my new "work of art." 

Loving this relaxed handle with the traditional Chanel hardware.
