FRINGE+MAGIC

This suede fringe skirt by Tamara Mellon is so much fun, I paired it with a fun UNIF tee and a strand of pearls. On the cusp between feminine and witchy woo! 

Happy Birthday, my Chloe!

HERMES SCARF+50s- MINI POST

I think it's safe to say we are all still dealing with the stunning styling of Giambattisa Valli's Fall 2014 show. Those head wraps are amazing! In the spirit of Valli, I decided to mess around with a Hermes scarf channeling a bit of a preppy, greaser vibe.

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.

ALOHA, STOP & SMELL THE ROSES

    As soon as I pulled this Hawaiian Quilt dress by Cynthia Rowley out of its brown box, I was in love. I love the vintage cut of the dress--you're instantly a woman when you put this dress on, hello waist! You can't help but sway in a certain way in this dress, back and forth, back and forth like a "Island Belle."

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!

IVY

If you've ever had the pleasure of dining at the Ivy, you'd get why it's so loved and why it's mentioned so often. The place is filled to the brim with technicolor rainbow roses, antiques and ivy-covered plates. Each nook and cranny has something special and totally photo worthy. Even if it's raining outside, you'll feel like you're on vacation, dining on a tropical isle. I recently went for a birthday lunch, probably on one of the hottest days yet but I swear, I still felt an island breeze as I dined on homey penne pasta with fresh tomato and mozzarella and yes, sipped on my Chamomile tea.

HAPPY SUMMER

Enjoyed a lovely morning at LACMA with my Mom, wandering through the new exhibits. Perhaps the most fun was the art outside of the buildings. Such color and whimsy. A perfect way to ring in the first day of Summer.
