Instant Obsession: Vogue Beach Towel

December 16th // 1 Comment

I went crazy over this Vogue beach towel when I saw it! A collaboration between D. Porthault and Vogue magazine, this fashion-forward towel features a reproduction of the iconic flapper painted by Eduardo Garcia Benito. The painting was actually Vogue’s cover photo on July 15th 1926. A stylish piece of history and an absolutely fabulous gift idea!

Instant Obsession: Rachel Zoe ‘Blake’ Sandal

December 6th // 2 Comments

Amber has been obsessing over the new shoes from Rachel Zoe’s latest collection! She called me this morning and now we are both debating which pair to pre-order from Nordstrom. They are insane!! I love them all but think the “Blake” sandal is my favorite… black and white is a classic combo and the laces in the back are really sexy.

Pre-order these styles today! So gorgeous!!

This season’s must-have casual look

November 15th // 1 Comment

Here are two words you must have in your fashion vocabulary: monochromatic and ombre. Keeping all of your clothing and accessories in the same color family adds an instant dose of chic, while a shaded ombre effect is just plain interesting (and takes the does this match? conundrum out of the equation). Push the look one step further with this season’s trendy bright colors and use blue to chase away the winter gray.

Oh, and extra points for big hair. This look from Nasty Gal is a stunner:

Just-married Nikki Reed wears Chan Luu wrap bracelet

October 17th // Comment Here

Newlywed Nikki Reed and her husband Paul McDonald were spotted at the Just Dance 3 event last week and Nikki was rocking a Chan Luu wrap bracelet, which I am currently obsessed with! Chan Luu is an accessories-favorite of Rihanna, Jessica Alba and Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles and their bracelets and scarves are always seen on the hottest celebrities.

Each Chan Luu collection is deeply personal, inspired by the various cultures she experiences in her travels. Her eclectic mix of natural materials is a reflection of her creativity, while her emphasis on taking old world crafts and making them new gives each contemporary piece a connection to the past. – Chan Luu’s Facebook page
