NYC AND LA // MY HOME DECOR WITH ROVE CONCEPTS

NYC. 

You will notice my home decor tastes differ from coast to coast. In my NYC loft, I crave a super clean palette. Everything structured, white, and modern. I like this really simple contrast against my chaotic NYC life. My bedroom is a place of zen! And I don’t like much to distract me when I’m sleeping. A blank slate before bed really helps me unwind. Here in both my NYC and LA homes, you’ll find some really special Rove Concepts pieces that will last me a lifetime. 

In NYC, I wanted something extra simple that went with crisp white sheets and lifted off the ground so I can really take in the my views of the river and Manhattan from the window. The Rove Concepts “Ayda” bed was the perfect fit. I went with it in a King size. I like hopping into a spacious bed that immediately makes me feel like I’m living the suite life in a hotel. I travel so much and sleep is just so important to me. My bed has to be extremely comfortable and roomy, with that fresh hotel feeling.  Complete with the Rove Concepts “Margot” nightstands, it’s a dream. These nightstands are a perfect pair with the Ayda bed. Large enough to hold all of my bedside necessities like my journals and face and body creams. It’s part of my nightly ritual to flick on the lights and just write from bed, complete with a chai tea. 

LA.

In Los Angeles, I like to play with the all the sunlight, giving this brand new space, a lived-in feel. Mixing vintage, second-hand finds like this grandiose lamp against the Rove Concepts “Asher” dresser. Finding this shape in a mid-century modern dresser is hard to come by! Luckily, Rove Concepts has a variety of tall, slim sizes that work well in closet/bedroom spaces. This piece is simple, so well made, and just a stunner. I love the sleek wood with Rove’s iconic brushed copper handles which you’ll find in both my NYC and LA home styles. 

MORE IS MORE FOR A NIGHT OUT AT NYFW

I just wrapped up two days of shooting for Bulgari Parfums here in Los Angeles which brings me back to this incredible night in NYC with the team! I’m doing a quick flashback to NYFW out at Duggal GreenHouse in Brooklyn for the Bulgari B.Zero1 collection launch! Ciara hit the stage while this crisp white room let the new jewelry collection just pop. It was an art installation in itself! The best part about NYFW is dressing up for the parties. For this special night, I went for an eclectic mix with Farfetch featuring two brands I love at the moment: a Paco Rabanne turtleneck and statement Bottega Veneta skirt. Sometimes more is just more!

SUAREZ SISTERS IN PAIGE AT NYFW

Paige plays with 90’s classics with a twist! We took them to the front row. Think sexy power shoulder bodysuits and updated black jeans that tuck perfectly into a bold boot. The Suarez Sisters know how to effortlessly accomplish NYFW. It all starts with the essentials. Like Paige always says, #LIVEINIT.

LEICA CAMERA Q2 X AETHER APPAREL PHOTO PROJECT IN ASPEN

// Aether Apparel bib pants + ski outerwear // 

I am now a proud owner of the new Leica Q2 camera. I have worked with Leica for a few years now! From starring in the Leica Sofort campaign with Dylana, to being the very first to test new product for our projects! It’s been a very exciting and creative adventure that makes professional photography a journey I have fallen in love with. I own a few Leica cameras, but there really is something special about the Leica Q2. It’s an elegant piece that embodies everything that I love about photography mixed with travel, fashion, and adventure. It’s a full-frame compact camera (it’s excellent for throwing over my shoulder for an entire day, or have inside my bag), has brilliant photo quality, and super high speed performance. It makes shooting high-end editorial images a breeze. I like to say it shoots like butter. Smooth to perfection! I took my new Leica Q2 out to Aspen, Colorado with both the Leica and Aether Apparel teams. There could be on better collaboration between two brands. We took Aether’s super chic new skiwear on the slopes while really getting to dive into the world of the Leica Q2, which by the way, is totally weather proof. I didn’t have to worry about a little dust, water, and snow getting in the way while capturing the perfect shot.

This trip to Aspen was a special one. Many of the images of me were shot by Dylana. Aspen’s classic retro ski style is something I’ve always loved. We styled the Aether snow bib pants with nubby knit sweaters and Aether’s extra bold colored down jackets. I love these contrasted against the bright blue skies, and speckled with sun through the trees. Though I’ve been to these mountains many times, we embarked on an adventure that took me to places I’ve never seen before like out to the backcountry of Snowmass for dog sledding followed by wine at the beautiful Krabloonik Restaurant, to cross-country skiing all the way out to the luxurious Pine Creek Cookhouse. This photo project has been exhilarating and inspiring. To many more trips like this one.
