American Woman

Jacket - LF / Sweater - Tigerlily / Jeans - Current Elliot

Boots - Balenciaga / Purse - Tory Burch / Sunnies - Dita

Don't come a-hangin'

around my door

I don't wanna see

your face no more

I got more important

growin' old with you

Now woman

I said stay away

American Woman

listen when I say

- Guess Who

As you all know...

I'm a boot girl! So I busted out my balenciaga's for this outfit...

I love how the boots give and edge to my otherwise softer outfit as does my got to military jacket....

This sweater I received from one of my currently favorite lines Tigerlily!

The holes and shoulder pattern gives the sweater an extra something without it looking so regular. And that is just my style... I like anything a bit un regular!

I hope you all are having an amazing week... Halloween is just around the corner,

what are all you up to?

I've been for a walk...

On Jen...

Sweater & Shorts - Vintage / Blouse - Tucker for Target / Boots - Fendi

Socks - Target

All the leaves are brown

And the sky is grey

I've been for a walk

On a winters day

I'd be safe and warm

If I was in LA

California Dreamin

On such a winters day

- Mamas and the Papas

It was a beautiful fall day yet the sun was shinning...

so I knew I could get away with wearing my favorite daisy dukes one more time!

At the moment I'm really into silk blouses with attached bows/ties to them.

To me they have a richer look to the blouse which is key when dressing for fall.

I also love how the polka dot blouse plays with the aztec sweater,

kinda of unexpected in a way.

And we all know.... I love the unexpected!! =)

Happy Hump Day!

In for the Kill

On Jen...

Dress - City of Dolls / Jacket - Hurley / Shoes - JC

Scarf - UO / Glasses - Dita

I'm going in for the kill

I'm doing it for a thrill

Oh I'm hoping you'll understand

And not let go of my hand

- La Roux

I am ga ga over long sleeved maxi dresses at the moment...

and this one by City of Dolls is all kinds of perfect!

The fabric is like butter, so soft and cozy that it makes it perfect for this fall weather.

And for a bit of added warmth I just through on some tights underneath.

Another added plus about this dress are the thumb holes!

I looooove thumb holes in fall/winter, they kinda act like mittens.

I'm going to be doing a give away with City of Dolls soon so STAY TUNED!!

Daria has once again has me girl crushing!

She still looks beautiful with her no make up and grunge vibe.

These pants are killer and perfect to add a little flair when we are just wanting to throw on a tee with jeans...

The zippers also add a little touch of punk vibe, which I am always a fan of!

This post is a little mish mosh of 2 fabulous girl nights!

The photos on top are from my quick trip to SF when I shot for Nasty Gal,

I was able to meet up with my favorite SF gals... (left to right)

Laura from On the Racks, Jennie from Going West, Me & Liz from Late Afternoon

We had such a blast drinking our drinks on a water bed that was placed right next to the bar listening to the most amazing music! They played all my favorite rock songs...

I think we could definitely stir up some trouble in the city....

The next photos are from last night my girlfriend Stephanie and I started out at Katsuya just in time for Happy Hour! We had our Bellini's and munched on our favorite sushi dishes...

crispy rice and spicy tuna anyone?

The we made our way to see Phantom of the Opera....

at the Pantages Theatre, which by the way was amazing, the music was so powerful and the performances were perfect!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Learning to Fly

On Jen..

Bodysuit - Tigerlily / Boots - Lita by JC

Well some say life will beat you down

Break your heart, steal your crown

So I've started out, for god knows where

I guess I'll know when I get there

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings

Coming down is the hardest thing

- Tom Petty

I was so excited when this hot little number was in my package that Tigerlily sent to me!!

There are so many ways to wear this bodysuit...

I will be sporting it soon with black skinnies and super high heels!

Very excited!

I love the light in these photos, these were shot at my friends old loft.

I fell in love with this little nook where you could over look Hollywood...

perfect in the morning with a cup of coffee and a book.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

I'm sick in bed =(

Pink..

On Jen...

Dress - Vintage / Heels - Jimmy Choo for H&M

Pink it's my new obsession

Yeah, pink its not even a question

Pink on the lips of your lover, 'cause

Pink is the love you discover

- Aerosmith

So it was just recently one of my Bestie's Stephanie's Birthday!

And let me tell you it was pink, sparkly and there was even a Barbie cake!

Needless to say Stephanie loves all things Barbie...

The party was amazing we had the outside patio to ourselves at the Crescent Hotel

in Beverly Hills...

With cupcakes and champagne there was definitely a sugar over load.

I had been waiting for an occasion to wear this dress that I bought maybe 3 years ago.

Why do us gals do that? Buy a dress without a purpose or event to wear it to?

I guess it's just one of those things...... Oh well =)

The Lights...

On Jen...

Sweater - Tigerlily / Jeans - LF / Jacket - American Vintage

Boots - Vintage

When the lights go down in the city,

and the sun shines on the bay,

do I want to be there,

in my city

So you said your lonely

well my friend I'm lonely too

I want to get back, to my city

by the bay....

- Journey

Man I love me some Journey and...

this song was perfect for this outfit and weather.

A couple of my friends and I went to eat at this little place I like to call my hidden treasure in Hollywood....

But I guess it's time for me to spill the beans on it and share it with the world!

It a restaurant called Grub and that's EXACTLY what it is!

California comfort food at its BEST! So if you are in Hollywood then make you sure you try it!

Now can we talk about my sweater? I'm in LOVE with it...

I could wear it for 3 days in a row if not more, its so cozy and definitely one of the pieces you find yourself drawn too. Where you keep picking it out of your closet even though you wore it the day before.....

That my friends is true love...

Stylin' Blogger Garb

Who: Marina Tregubova

What: Chunky knits, Studded bag & harness boots

Where: Stitsh.co.uk

All right you all...

Let me start off by saying THANK YOU, THANK YOU & THANK YOU!!

The past couple days the weather has been cold, overcast with slight rain which is what I have been CRAVING!

This chill in the air allows me to dress as this stylin' gal above.

From the tights with the mini and layers on top, she has the must have fall look.

Chunky knits are a must and don't be afraid to pair 2 chunky knits together!

I hope you all had an amazing weekend and I am sorry for last weeks lack of blog posts but I barely had time to even sleep!

You Shook Me...

On Jen...

Shorts & Top - Vintage / Boots - Michael Kors

She was a fast machine

She kept her motor clean

She was the best damn woman that I ever seen

She had sightless eyes

Telling me no lies

Knockin' me out with those American thighs

- AC/DC

Can you say I scored?

How freaking cool is this top!?

I love it so much....

I pulled these suckers (my boots) out from storage the other day

It felt like Christmas finding things I forgot I had...

I like storing things away when a season is over, not only do you gain more closet space but you forget about the items, then they are new to you again when it is time to pull them out!

Hope you are all having a great Wednesday!

I'm in NY!!

Na Na NASTY...

Nasty, nasty boys, don't mean a thing

Oh you nasty boys

Nasty, nasty boys, don't ever change

Oh you nasty boys

- Janet Jackson

Above are some photos I shot for Nasty Gal last week...

I always look forward to working with the Nasty Gal team, they are so much fun and I feel like I am playing dress up with every outfit they put me in.

I literally am wanting EVERYTHING I was in!

The bottom 2 pics are so rock in roll, I could see myself wearing this outfit to a dive bar with a live band playing... where the other outfit is soft and pretty.

I am dying for this dress! Its GORGEOUS.... the back is sheer all the way to your bum.

It reminds me of the "naked" dress the Carrie wore in Sex in the City on her first date with Big.

Remember.....?

Minus the skin tight factor!

Stylin' Street Garb

What: Camel Trench

Where: Photo from Fashionising & TrendyCrew

Can the weather CHANGE already???

I'm so ready to pull out my coats and layer myself with cozy chunky knits!

Oh wait I live in LA.... ugh, so I won't be able to layer as much as I would like.

Pretty jealous of all you east coast and SF gals who will be able to.

I'm on the look out for a vintage style camel trench coat, I'm thinking Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's.

So let the hunt begin!
