When it comes to hats, I fall staunchly in the camp of, “They always look better on other people than on me”. But with summer here to stay (and another heat wave predicted for Southern California this week!), comfort trumps ego and breezy straw hats becomes de rigeur. The sun around here is no joke, and a […]
One of our favorite parts of doing Two Girls, One Kit is having an excuse to explore all the amazing independent fashion labels out there! The web has enabled so many designers to get their names and products out to consumers in a way that simply wasn’t possible before the Internet (and especially Instagram) made it […]
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 […]
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 […]
Holy cow, how is it Tuesday already? Seems like I was just posting last week’s installment of Two Girls, One Kit and now here we are with another one! I’ll be honest, it’s a challenge coming up with a unique look each week! It would of course be easy just to wear our same basics […]
There’s nothing like travel to kickstart new periods of personal expansion. And if a trip includes a structured educational component, something as simple as an audio tour or as immersive as a hands-on class, then the opportunity for growth is exponential! The two trips I’ve taken to Italy with Annette Joseph for her styling and photography workshops […]
Happy Monday, all! Firstly, please let me apologize for last week’s light posting. Let’s just say that a cat with a broken foot and a dog with an appetite for ibuprofen do not leave much time for anything else! Thankfully things around the house have settled down a smidge, leaving me a little more brain space […]
Nothing completes a space as effectively as artwork. Yet the world of art is so mysterious and impenetrable that it often seems easiest just to hang a framed poster from IKEA and call it a day (guilty as charged)! That said, the time and consideration it takes to curate a thoughtful selection of paintings and photography is […]
How are you at sleeping in? I give myself an F in this department. I’m a morning person by nature, which is great when there are places to go and people to see and cat antics to Snapchat. It’s not so handy, however, on a Saturday morning after a long, tiring week. Even when my […]
Can a particular plant be having a moment? Absolutely! Blooms and foliage can have their fifteen minutes in the sun (pun intended) just like any other visual element. Sometimes it’s a seasonal thing (peonies in June!) and sometimes it’s trend-driven (remember when ranunculus were inexplicably all the rage?). Lately, I’m riding the bandwagon for an […]
