While I try to bring you the utmost in glam on the blog, I have to admit that just like everyone else, I have dressed down days. I try to keep those days limited to Sunday, when most of my house chores and grocery shopping get done. On Sundays I opt for something comfortable and flowy – but above all – easy to run around in. Maybe even throw on a hat to hide the fact that I have no desire to do anything good to my hair. plus size maxi dress via asos {sold out | similar | sim

If you’ve been around for a minute, you know my favorite type of jean is a destroyed pair. I will try just about every single pair I can get my hands on – dark, light, baggy, tight – I want them all. Yes, I know. It’s an addiction. When Torrid told me they were releasing a new pair of Girlfriend fit jeans, I was so excited. They have the worn-in, destroyed feel of a boyfriend jean, but with a skinny jean fit. I got my hands on a pair and (not that I was surprised because we a

My ultimate warm-weather weekend color combo will always be hot pink and gold. And now that we’re officially into warmer days, I find myself reaching for the girlie and chic duo more and more. When I got this tunic in the mail I knew exactly how I’d pair it up: with a pair of oversized gold sunnies and nude sandals — perfect for having lunch with my bestie at our favorite spot overlooking the lake. waterfall ruffle tunic c/o city chic | sunnies by quay in muse via nordstrom |

Off the shoulder tops will always be my to-go. They work for my pear shaped body type, showing off my shoulders while still being stylish at the same time. When Forever 21 came to me to put together a spring look and I saw this gorgeous coral flouncy top, I knew I had to have it. The fabric is so light and gauzy (perfect for those 100+ degree days that are just around the corner) and the skinny jeans I paired it with are more jegging than jean. They hug me in all the right pl

Boudoir is a huge trend for Spring/Summer 2016 – and it can be intimidating. What does it mean? Does it mean *gulp* actual lingerie out and about? Not necessarily!  While you can be daring AF like Susan Sarandon at the SAG awards (pairing a white pantsuit with a black bandeau bralette and owning it), you can also pull subtle inspiration from the trend into your looks in the form of floaty chiffon, wrap design and lacey details. This dress ticks every box for me when it comes

Spring is coming. I know it’s near impossible for my East Coast snow bunnies to believe, as you sit under about 67 feet of snow and arctic temperatures, but I promise you, it is. Here on the West Coast, things are getting a bit mild (read: 50 degree nights, 75 degree days) and it’s got me thinking about everything from resort season to snow cones with my girls and trip out to the beach. I’m breaking the winter blues today with a bright and floral number that I thought (when I

There’s something in the air of Los Angeles that leaves me feeling carefree, creative and inspired. I love going there. There’s always something to see, something to inspire you… not to mention, something delicious to eat! It’s such a fun city. This last trip, Nick and I went to LACMA to visit the Urban Light display. The exhibit is super famous – you’ll immediately recognize it from movies and photos. Before I left for my trip, I remember looking down into my suitcase and la

Maybe it’s the New York hangover. It must be. It’s been a few months since my runway show, and since then I crave the runway. The flashing lights, the music, the excitement that crackles through the air as people take their seats… it’s intoxicating. So, naturally, when I heard that Phoenix Fashion Week was hosting a mid-season runway show (and I was in town!) I immediately secured seats to Spring Into Style! Knowing that this was the fashion event of the spring season here
