“Give a girl the correct footwear and she can conquer the world.” – Bette Midler

Its kind of true right?  There is nothing like a truly stellar pair of shoes to finish off a look and make you, literally, walk taller.  Earlier this week I received the Spring/Summer lookbook for Giuseppe Zanotti and was blown away after flipping through the pages.  I have always loved Giuseppe for their interesting, off the beaten path killer heels, but this is definitely taking

Giveaway!

During one of last week’s trend montages I mentioned how much I love the new exclusive Power Support USA designer iPhone cases and guess what?  The super chic piece of gadget artwork just arrived at my door!  As much as I love it, I have decided that I can’t keep all of these goodness to myself, so I am going to pass it along you!

Well, one of you at least!  In order to be eligible, just like us on … +more

Leather Jacket

No other single piece of clothing can convey as much rock-and-roll chic as the perfect leather jacket!  And I am not sure that there is anything more versatile.  Throw it on over a dress for an edgy juxtopsition or wear it with a t-shirt and jeans for a look that says, “I’m with the band.”  I really love the soft, motorcycle styles that All Saints has right now if you are looking for a leather jacket that won’t break the … +more

Have I mentioned that I really love my job?

 Its true and yesterday was no exception.  I was hired to dress one of my favorite clients to receive an award at the Hollywood Film Festival last night so I got to spend the day running around town pulling dapper suits and all that comes along with them.  After I finished prepping I headed over to his hotel to get him dressed.  As it turns out President Obama (and his security … +more

Burgundy and Bordeaux

As I mentioned last week, my parents stopped through LA recently for a visit on their way up to Napa.  One night for dinner we decided to just stay in and have wine and cheese.  We stopped by an artisan cheese shop in the neighborhood (which ended up taking an hour– they take their cheese very seriously there!)  and then went by the grocery store for a few bottles of wine.  My dad picked out some of his favorite reds … +more

Autumn Palette

It is autumn in Los Angeles and even in the city without seasons the leaves are falling!  I actually know this to be true first hand because I finally own an actual tree, with actual leaves and they are actually falling to the ground!  Seriously.  It is amazing.  And perhaps I won’t always feel this way, but as of now my new favorite household chore is the raking of these shed leaves.  Big apology to my first love– doing laundry– … +more

Marbled

Does anybody else remember the marble art set from when you were a kid?  The one where you put your paper on the spinning plate and then added paint and marbles to it while it spun round and round and round?  I loved the fact that you had no idea what it would look like until you finally stopped the paper from spinning to reveal your masterpiece!  I am equally intrigued these days by the use of marbling by designers. … +more
