MEET THE PHOEBE

ag-jeans-natalie-lim-suarez-10

It’s so hard finding the perfect blue jean that has that vintage feel. No added stretch, just love. Meet the Phoebe by AG Jeans. A cropped frayed hem, high waist, and total butt-hugging perfection. I’ve got 2 more days in LA and I’m savoring every moment back in my hometown. Dy and I are actually headed to the AG factory to see how some of our favorite jeans are made. I love getting an inside peek on the process. The washes, the cuts, and design. It’s always such a unique learning experience. Really good denim is part of my California-girl DNA. We grew up in denim-on-denim, vintage Wranglers, and full-on flares from Limited Too with leopard stripes down the side. We were the tomboys off of Wilshire Blvd. Them jeans though.

STEPPING INTO THE NEW YEAR RIGHT

Currently writing from the Hotel Carmel on the Northern coast in California. I’m so excited to explore this charming little beach town and drive up to the cliffs of Big Sur….even on a rainy New Years holiday. To work from somewhere so calm and relaxing is amazing, before I have to jump back into the crazy NYC groove. These little getaways always get me focused and re-energized for another amazing year to come. A place to fully disconnect. Like here, in some of my favorite looks from Art Basel in Miami. Looks like I’ll be flying back to warmer climates for a shoot in a few weeks before hopping straight into the cold, cold fashion month. I’m savoring these last few days of staring deep into the ocean. Be right back.

HOLIDAYS UNWRAPPED

I can still hear the Christmas carols playing whether I’m walking down 5th Avenue or when strolling down the local mall. Every year and every season just goes by so fast. The crazy buzz of gift giving has finally settled, and now it’s actually time for vacation mode. Boy was picking gifts for my special someones extra stressful this season. My go-to gift every season, for any occasion actually, is fragrance. Each of my friends has a scent. My girly gal pals prefer something subtle with a floral accent for the day, and something more musky for night. The men in my life like something fresh but still masculine. This one by Armani is a mix of Mediterranean air and sun. A beautiful blend of fruit, herb, and wood. What did you unwrap this holiday?

WHEN IN NYC, WEAR BLACK

I recently had dinner with Kenneth Cole and his team at one of my favorite spots off Bowery, The Smile. I love how much thought is put into his work… from his original writing to his attention to detail with each and every piece. Truly authentic and original. Continuing to dress NYC in head-to-toe black perfection. I fell hard for this gorgeous coat. It’s fully lined and probably one of the warmest pieces I own. Luscious. Luxurious. It’s seriously this coat against the brutal cold of NYC. You can trust this bad boy will be out again during NYFW. Maybe with a black turtleneck and jeans. Something so simple will genuinely stand out amongst the crazy colorful outfits and frozen toes in stilettos that will be stomping before street style photographers. Though it’s exciting and always a ton of fun for my sister and I, thinking about fashion month already gives me the chills. Brr! For now, I’ll be tucked away in my family’s house in LA gearing up for amazing 2017…fully re-vamped and energized. I’m ready to take you guys on another exciting adventure. It only gets better from here. I can’t tell how much I love you guys.
