Last spring I bought a utility jumpsuit and wore it nearly into the ground. It quickly became my go-to when I wanted to look cool but be comfortable, and didn’t want to have to put too much effort into it. It’s been hanging in my closet all winter, waiting patiently for its second go-round this […]
A Peek at the New Serena & Lily Palisades Village Store!
Earlier this week I hopped in the car and crossed town to get a special sneak peek at the new Serena & Lily Palisades Village store before it officially opens this weekend! I’ve loved following the company from their early days offering bedding and wallpaper to the soup-to-nuts home decor brand. They’ve managed to succeed […]
My Top Spots for a Mother-Daughter Date in Los Angeles
The older I get, the more I miss my mom when we’re apart. The time we spend in each other’s company is so precious to me. In recent years, we’ve had to make due with a get-together every six months or so. But this summer, she’s been flying to LA once every few weeks for […]
How to Wear a Camel Coat for Monochromatic Winter Layers
I’m writing this post on a plane headed back to Los Angeles after seven days in Toronto, and I’m feeling a little wistful about leaving the cold and snow behind. I know, it sounds like crazy talk, especially to people who have to deal with negative temps for the next three months, but I really […]
Sporty + Sophisticated in Sneakers, Silks, and Sweaters for Fall
I’ve just returned from High Point Market, where I spent four glorious days wandering the showrooms and touring the new collections from established and up-and-coming interiors brands alike. The trip was a success by every measure: I connected with friends old and new, got a solid sense for the trends and happenings of the design […]
Two Girls, One Kit: The Vintage-Inspired Graphic Tee by Dazey LA
True story: In the 8th grade, I desperately wanted to shop for clothes at a thrift store. I mean, it was 1994 and everyone was doing it. My mom had her feelings about secondhand clothing, and since she controlled the pursestrings it was outfits from Gap Kids for me. But I was obsessed with finding a […]
Two Girls, One Kit: The Silk Harem Pants by Ruti
If last week’s installment of Two Girls, One Kit was all about stepping outside our fashion comfort zone, then this week’s has two sneakered feet firmly entrenched in familiar territory! While I’m all for exploring and getting creative with my outfits, sometimes a girl just wants to throw on old favorites and go. But of course […]
An Ace & Jig Jumpsuit Giveaway from Accompany
Giveaways are kind of like swear words: They make the most impact when used infrequently and at exactly the right moment. I myself save giveaways for those rare occasions when there’s something really good in the offing, which is exactly the case this weekend! You all know what a big fan I am of Accompany, the online […]
Two Girls, One Kit: The Brushstroke Skirt by The ODELLS
It’s Tuesday, time for our weekly installment of Two Girls, One Kit! While most of the country has been bracing itself for snow and blustery gales, we’re enjoying some unseasonably warm temps here in LA. It’s got us reaching for shorts and tees well before we expected to, and it means that the light and […]
Two Girls, One Kit: The Wide Leg Denim Jumpsuit from Winsome
I was at a fancy work party recently and noticed something veeeery interesting: The balance in eveningwear had shifted from stylish gals in dresses to stylish gals in jumpsuits. Ladies in the know were attired in one-piecers of all ilks, from slinky and silky and shapeless to form-fitting and fab. Of course the coverall isn’t limited to […]
