More warehouse shoot photos! Nicole’s stairway only has a rail along the wall, and the other side is completely open to the warehouse. Which sort of makes me nervous due to my small fear of heights. Hence the flats rather than heels in this outfit post. Still, once you get over the fear of falling …
I wish I could shoot in Nicole’s warehouse every day. Minus the lack of AC during an LA heatwave, of course. The natural, diffuse lighting was so beautiful and put us in great spirits. This frilly, floral number was perfect for a hot LA summer day. Elise ArmitageElise Armitage is an entrepreneur and founder of What …
Here’s the second style in my How to tie a sarong series. A super easy way to turn your sarong into a twist neck dress. You can see the first part of the series, halter style, here. HOW TO TIE A SARONG – TWIST NECK STYLE Elise ArmitageElise Armitage is an entrepreneur and founder of What …
There’s something about a maxi dress that just makes you feel so goddess-like. They’re elegant, flattering and comfortable, all at the same time. A rare combination. This maxi skirt from Butterflyzebra adds a twist to the usual maxi look with a high slit. I paired it with a black tank and a thick belt to …
How lovely is this teal high-low dress from LE TOTE? I became acquainted with the company when I met some of their team at a fashion event hosted by EventBrite. LE TOTE is a fashion subscription service—in other words, Netflix for clothes and accessories! Everything they have is really pretty and feminine. And their jewelry …
One of my favorite things about summer is that I get to whip out my sarongs (or pareus, as the Hawaiians call them) and use them as a cover-up at the beach. I had completely forgotten that last summer when we were in the Caribbean, I had planned to do a bunch of tutorial posts …
My bestie Nicole has been telling me how wonderful knee-high stockings are for a while now—how flattering they are on your legs, and how they allow you to actually wear a skirt/shorts in San Francisco on a breezy day. And so, when Prettify.ch offered to send me a pair of one of their tights, I …
When I was in LA, I spent a couple nights with Nicole, videographer extraordinaire. She’s one of those friends who I always get to brag about. Her latest endeavor? Living a bi-city life with gigs in SF and LA, where she’s renting a huge, gorgeous live/work art loft/warehouse space in the Fashion District. This may be one …
Today’s outfit post is a little different than my usual posts. This month on Lucky Mag’s blog, the theme is “Girl on the go.” I love this theme because everyone knows the feeling of having to dash out after work for an event, date, whatever. I’m constantly leaving the office at the end of the …
I wore this outfit for a Sunday BBQ at the park with friends. The maxi skirt is actually this maxi dress. I learned this amazing trick—transitioning a dress into a skirt by tucking a shirt into a thick belt—from a recent post by Sydne Summer. It’s an easy way to play with pieces and makes …
Happy 4th of July! I just got back from a quick trip down to LA for some girl time with a couple of my favorite ladies. While I was down there, Nicole and I shot in her amazing loft/warehouse in the Fashion District. The American flag in her room and my blue striped high-low dress …
I was really excited when the mother + daughter team of ShopFishie reached out to me! They just recently launched their online boutique in May, and they’re always on the hunt for new, unique designers to carry. Their shop has a boutique-y feel, at affordable prices. This white “Meet me in Paris” dress got a …
