It’s on a foggy and grey NYC day that I miss California. It’s sunshine, and hills, and ocean, and cactus, and mountains, and oh, did I mention sunshine?! In the winter, it feels I’m always flying to sunny California for work. As everyone is scared to shoot in the middle of the NYC cold, and migrates somewhere warm and tropical…where tanks and shorts are allowed on set. Here’s a little behind-the- scenes peek at my Somedays Lovin’ fall ’14 campaign, featuring my lovely sister Dylana and boyfriend, Jordan. A park with rows and rows of travel trailors…the glorious Airstreamer, decked out to perfection. Shredded light blue overalls, the perfect ivory sweater dress, and classic pink coat. I can’t wait to show you more from this rad campaign. The rustic setting made everything all the more complete. A bit western, and a whole lot of grunge! My time in California went by fast, straight into Thanksgiving before getting back on a plane. Still, I wish I could spend a good month or so there. A girl needs a vacation every once in a while! During my downtown, I drove down the coast just to overlook Malibu at sunset. The best view you could ever imagine. Always taking my breath away. It looks like I’ll be spending the first time away from home this Christmas.

Stay tuned on my next travel adventures!
