While Memorial Day has always signaled the start of summer for me, I also want to take a moment to express gratitude to the brave souls who have served and continue to serve this beautiful country so that we may sleep in peace and live our lives day to day knowing that we are […]
One trend I’m loving this spring/ summer is the matching playset. They’re fun to wear together as a matching set, or wear separately to create many looks. Some of the fun ones I’ve seen have a cropped top and a high waist short, giving it a flirty summer vibe. This one is by […]
I have a confession…so I had no real plans of going to Coachella last week. None at all actually. I hadn’t shopped for Coachella and I didn’t have my usual nail art…nothing. That may as well have been the best way to manifest me going, because in the very last minute, my girlfriend invited […]
For as long as I can remember I’ve always wanted the perfect pair of plaid pants. As a teen I’ve always admired Gwen Stefani: she was beautiful, fearless on stage, was an amazing songwriter and she had a kick ass sense of style. I loved No Doubt and went to their every show. […]

Had such an amazing time this weekend at Santa Barbara. Nothing like a quick getaway of sun, friends, wine tasting, good food and amazing company to recharge the soul! Much love and thanks to the folks at The Good Land Santa Barbara for their hospitality! xox Wore a hat everyday in Santa […]
Though I tend to dress according to my mood, and perhaps location ( I’ve never worn so much black in my life than when I was in New York) my style tends to lean more towards the boho-chic, easy Cali vibe on a day to day basis. The trick to making this […]
Perhaps my everyday go-to look would probably be what I call “Boho Hippie Chic.” Why? Well, cuz not only is it easy and comfy…but for me, it truly reflects my personality. I’m a Pisces-Virgo-Virgo that’s a true hippie at heart…a free spirit that just really comes from a place of love. <3 That, and I’m […]
