Moods. Two Shoots. One Weekend.

Moods. Two Shoots. One Weekend.

I’ll keep this one short and sweet. I’ve really missed this community! I am revamping everything and looking to potentially transfer from WordPress . com to WordPress . org as I’m ready to evolve as a blogger. With that said, I’d love to share an upcoming project I’m working on this weekend, March 2nd with an amazing  team, and here are our moodboards for style inspiration!

This shoot will be…

malibu dreaming.

Malibu dreaming is quite the metaphor. But this is the feeling I still get, even twelve years settled into Los Angeles. Every time I visit Malibu, I have the same inspired, light, and free feeling that I got the very first time. You’ll find miles and miles of beach access while driving down the PCH, and it’s a bit mesmerizing to say the least.  One of my favorite parts about this, is there are…

In a New York Minute-

In a New York Minute-

It may seem like a stretch when I say, I was in and out of Manhattan inna new york minute. But I tell you. This was one of those experiences. Who do you know that is crazy enough to fly to NY for a day trip to Manhattan? Hear me out. Lmao. I did this, knowing I would only be in The Big Apple for all of nine hours on business. Gladly accepted the mission. Packed an daytime travel bag with a few…

Retro Look: Vintage Christian Dior, Gold + Swarovski Crystal-

Based on popularity and well, Instagram, I’m pretty sure we’ve all seen LA’s signature pink wall. If you don’t know who the designer “Paul Smith” is, you aren’t living in this millennium.  Melrose Place has become LA’s trendiest hot spot to snap street style photos on the westside of Hollywood. In other words, it’s like a blogger’s paradise. Unlike the pink wall story, this is the first mint…

Cornflower & Tan Trend For Keeps.

Cornflower & Tan Trend For Keeps.

What can I say. I have an affinity for testing my vision. Lately, I’ve decided that I’ve spent primarily most of my twelve years in LA dressing and serving clients, and spent the least amount of time developing my brand as a stylist. When you get to a point where you need to expand your reach, and build an actual audience, its time to level up and make some important business decisions. It’s been…

"No-Chella," I Left My Heart at LA Hipster Bazaar-

“No-Chella,” I Left My Heart at LA Hipster Bazaar-

My wanderlust for desert day parties, and #REVOLVE “around the world” socialite land spaces filled with hosting thee most beautifully staged blog-worthy set design, just wasn’t in the cards for me this year. All the #Beychella eyegasms my heart cold hold could not stand a chance at taking me out of my subdued element. See these days, I crave a more authentic circle, and choose to abstain from…

Ivy & Fig Campaign

Hey Guys, I couldn’t wait to share this amazing designer that you must know about! Ivy & Fig makes vegan, eco-friendly, and trend conscious items that I 100% endorse.

Spring Transition

Please pardon my long absence. It feels good to be back in the loop again. As we know spring transition is in full effect. And if you know me, (like on a person level and beyond social media) you know that I live to dress up any chance I can. I’m the one that finds a reason to insert a touch of glamour into every situation. Part of the thrill that runs through my veins when I get dressed for…

Blue Crush

Hello darlings! Let me introduce you to my BLUE CRUSH. When I first bought this incredibly glamorous jacket from Saks Fifth Avenue, I thought to myself… now this is a coat I’m never taking off. The mission was to wear it as often, and as many ways that I could think of. And I still can’t get enough.Once you discover that there are no rules to how you choose to wear things, you can really become…

afro punk

All the fashion trends nod to a neutral color palette for spring, but I wanted to aim for a more colorful introduction. So, here’s a spring look I pulled together that’s perfect for an art gallery opening, or cocktails and dinner out with friends. Be the conversation piece of the night, with an edgy take on a simple shirt dress. For this look I felt compelled to represent the afro punk movement…

70’s romance

What isn’t romantic about springtime? Let’s talk flowers, and cherry blossoms, and blossoming opportunities… and to add to that, every girl needs that one particular spring dress, one that transitions from winter to spring. That one dress that you can wear with a motorcycle jacket or cashmere sweater in the evening when the sun begins to set. The kind of dress that can suit the perfect afternoon…

  Yay, we made it to spring guys! And every girl needs that one ‘dress.’ That one dress that transitions from winter to spring. That one dress that you can wear with a motorcycle jacket or cashmere sweater in the evening when the sun begins to set. The kind of dress that can suit the perfect afternoon brunch, or compliment a day of shopping! So getting our hands on the perfect winter carryover…
