leather and lace.

I am constantly pairing leather with lace. They may seem like two materials that would be found on opposite ends of the spectrum, but I think they balance each other out; leather being tough and rigid, lace being dainty and delicate. It’s a perfect match! Plus, it’s so easy to add some edge to a pretty lace dress by adding the perfect leather jacket. It’s like getting the best of both worlds!

morley.

I’ve been a big fan of Morley for such a long time now. He’s an LA street artist that I’d pick over Banksy any day. His words always leave you thinking, wishing, or even feeling guilty. Either way, whenever I see a poster of his around LA, it always makes my day just a bit sunnier. Here are a few of my favorites:


so good.

the stars are projectors.

Here’s what I wore to Day One of the California Market Center. I felt like it was the perfect mix of business, fashion and fun! Which is what the CMC is all about! :) Plus, I was thrilled that I finally got to wear my collared necklace from Romwe! It has become my favorite piece of jewelry to wear. I can’t wait to experiment more with it!

gypsy junkies.

I fell in love with this daisy lace dress from LA brand Gypsy Junkies! It makes for the perfect summer outfit. I can see myself wearing it to festivals, shows, the beach, everywhere! It even works well as a swimsuit coverup. I actually wore it out a couple of weekends ago when I went to The Hudson Block Party! Saint Motel performed, Keith Wilson DJ’d and I danced all night with some of my favorite people. It was such a great time and was definitely the start of summer for me! :)

crybaby presents.

I recently came across this online store, CRYBABY Presents. It’s based in LA and is owned by two amazingly talented, creative girls! Their online store has everything from Home Decor to the perfect summer shorts! It’s fun to discover new items and brands on their site that I didn’t even know existed. I especially love their selection of womenswear that manages to combine cute, edgy, and fun! I’m currently in need of their two piece Samantha Pleet Set… amongst other things:
