I’m Loving: Lonely Lingerie
I’m a serial dater/adamant single girl who has a serious addiction to little lacy underthings. And not because anyone is necessarily going to see them, but because I really like wearing little lacy underthings. And I like things that don’t rely on padding and special effects to make me and my body into something we’re […]
I’m Loving: Organic by John Patrick
Beauty and ethics; those are the two things John Patrick’s eco-conscious line, Organic, seeks to combine. Everything about the New York-based designer’s clothing reflects an Earthy tone and feel rooted in minimalism and the merging of structure and fluidity. Mixing neutral tones with deep, rich colors, as well as directional pieces with classic silhouettes, the clothing […]
Sandals & Ugly Feet: Together at Last
I’ve just passed the two-year mark in L.A., thus far abstaining from those things called flip-flops, something I often find to be a minor personal victory. Except when I’m at the beach or the pool, which, having grown up on a lake, is perhaps actually less often than when I lived in Michigan. Flip flops are more […]
Are you Keep-ing?
You should be. If you thought online shopping was easy already, surfing from site to site via email promos or blog scrolling or just plain browsing, Keep takes it to another (fiscally dangerous) level. It’s a kind of combination of Pinterest and Stumble Upon, except better because it’s only for fashion and no one’s sharing casserole recipes. […]
Long Live the Basic Tee
As I approach my two year anniversary of living in the City of Angels, I realize that my style actually has evolved. But not in the way you think it would have. The thing is…it’s only evolved to become MORE atypical of L.A. Call it stubbornness (even in the face of practicality), but I still […]
Acne Studios Opening in Downtown LA
It sounds too good to be true–Acne Studios, the epitome of effortless cool and downtown chic with their staple knitwear and minimalist design, is opening their West Coast flagship store in Los Angeles, of all places. Alas, it’s all true–and this week you’ll get to see for yourself. Wednesday, December 18th marks the grand opening […]
Hey, Boys: We don’t dress for you
Over the past year or so, I’ve seen the occasional article/list of things guys hate to see on women, and I always feel a mixture of anger and amusement. The article is invariably written by a dude, a narrow-minded one who seems to think that girls dress for the sole/primary purpose of impressing guys. Boys, […]
Giving the Slip (Dress)
Is it a dress, or is it lingerie? Do I care? The slip dress is something I could so easily make fun of (and sometimes do). But I won’t. Because what could possibly be more comfortable than wearing a loose whisper of silk, satin, or some other delicate material when it’s time to go out […]

I’m Loving: LA Brand Rails
I already named some of the stores I like in L.A., but I’m finding an increasing number of great brands the City of Angels has to offer. And if you keep up with the Kardashians (as I obviously do…) you may have noticed various photos floating the Interwebs of Kris Jenner’s eldest spawn sporting the […]
