fall trend: coated jeans

fall trend: coated jeans

I'm kind of inspired to pick up a pair of wax coated skinnies this fall and edge my ordinary denim look! What do you think?

back to school nostalgia


I've been out of school for a few years now, but this time of year always makes me nostalgic for back to school time. For me, that meant new clothing as the weather (and leaves) would soon be changing, new possibilities with new classes/teachers/classmates, football games, the return of the pumpkin spice latte and a general feeling of coziness. I know it's still August, but my mind is on fall...

fame

There's a little movie that entered infamy by singing the words "I'm gonna live forever." Fame is arguably the ultimate American Dream. Entertainment is one of America's major grossing exports and even though movies are rarely entirely shot in Hollywood, it's star performers still live forever. Here are some new starlets that I believe to be next to enter infamy and live forever. 


Anne Hathaway
We first saw her as a lovable princess in The Princess Diaries, and most of us thought, lovely another cute actress from Disney. Then, completely changed pace in Rachel Getting Married and Love and Other Drugs. After all that she transforms herself again in Les Miserables, singing gut wrenching ballads leading her to straight to the Oscars. She has throughly proven that not only is she talented but a true chameleon.




Lena Dunham

She has been proclaimed as the voice of a generation. She not only stars in the HBO series GIRLS, she is the driving force behind it. Her complete raw honest writing for the show has taken the series from a Sex and the City look alike to a complete new level. Showing no mercy Lena writes and acts life as it is for 20 somethings in this generation, and for that I believe she is just starting her reign over young Hollywood.




Jennifer Lawerence

She has starred in successful indie film The Winter's Bone, She blew competition out of the water with her blockbuster franchise The Hunger Games, and is co-starring in the breakout hit Silver Linings Playbook. She is changing how people look at actresses because she doesn't seem to fit any mold given to her. She's beautiful AND talented, she's starring in a huge blockbuster AND winning Oscars. She also doesn't seem to care too much about all of the fame. She is now seen as Hollywood royalty, but she still has managed to keep that 'I wish she was my friend' feel.

I, for one, am excited to see Hollywood return attention to talented people rather than fleeting trend setters. Hopefully these women continue to inspire me to keep breaking the mold, because the world needs more individuals and less remakes.

RARE rainy day

Rainy days in Southern California are few and far between and with summer temperatures upon us this coming weekend (likely near 100, what?!) it seems as though our rare spring showers are all but gone as summer approaches. I had only one chance to wear my Hunter rain boots this spring (bummer), but don't worry, I managed to document the rare occasion. This was my rainy day outfit while running a million errands the other day. Of course, the rain disappeared and the sun managed to come out just when I was taking these pictures...I promise it was really raining that day...I wasn't just wearing the rain boots to look cool....

low key holiday weekend

low key holiday weekend

Easy essentials for keeping your look in tact over a relaxing holiday weekend. A few outdoor must haves including a chic utility jacket for the chillier temps after the sun sets, comfy chair (this one is sliiiiightly out of my price range, but that doesn't keep me from placing it on the wish list) and a charcoal grill for foolproof burgers. Poolside, grillside, or just relaxing in a comfy chair with a good book (and/or a cocktail!)...can't go wrong with a supersoft t-shirt dress, cool shades and a few basic accessories.

Cheers darlings!
