Living in a high rise apartment, I’m lucky to have a balcony that overlooks the skyscrapers in downtown Los Angeles. The other day I was viewing my Instagram stories and saw how my sister turned her new backyard in Brooklyn into a garden lovers paradise.

Pam & Gela Olive Green Cargo Pants; Nasty Gal Bodysuit; Topshop Moto Jacket

I have a not-so-good habit of buying something and letting it sit in my closet until I create the ideal outfit and find the perfect place to wear it.

I paired them with a black bodysuit, black lace up stiletto booties and a faux leather moto jacket. To accessorize, I wore silver jewelry and used a metallic leather clutch which addedRead More →

In a few days Billy and I will be heading to Arizona (where he grew up) to watch his son graduate high school and to spend time with my family who will also be there.

Bohemian Style Maxi Dress

What I love about Sundays is getting dressed up and heading to brunch. I’ll splurge and order a dish I wouldn’t typically eat during the week—it usually involves a ton of butter, sugar and syrup. When choosing where to dine Billy and I have a few favorite spots, one of them being Perch in downtown Los Angeles. This trendy French inspired bistro sits high in the sky and has some of the most incredible dishes and cocktails. Once we’re finished dining, we’ll head up to the rooftop bar for a drink and a spectacular view of the L.A. skyline. My style staple for spring andRead More →
