KICKING IT

I’ve totally just hit up the sneaker department HARD lately. After wearing so many uncomfortable shoes for years on set for shoots, and walking the streets of NY with bandaged heels, I thought, “I really need to invest in some proper kicks.” They have saved my feet. Not to mention, it’s the perfect excuse to take on classic Swedish style. Just pair something totally classic and chic, dressed down with the perfect beat-up sneaker. Duster coat by Rodebjer (must-have Swedish brand), an embellished mini, and my favorite white tee. Oh, how I miss Stockholm! Where minimalism is key, and effortless is everything. Next to my favorite Pumas, Vans, and Nike sneakers, I’ve also recently went GA-GA over Brit brand Gola who I just shot with for the S/S ’15 campaign. Shop below my favorites.

I’VE GOT WINGS

These magnificent fringed sleeves literally feel a lot like wings. Especially when I’m stepping out into the extra windy streets off the Hudson River. They flutter every which way I turn. Black magic. I’m currently packing for my upcoming travels, and I’m always leaning towards these everyday staples. A simple cropped turtleneck, and my new favorite velvet maxi-skirt by Tjours Toi Family Affairs. (oh, and it’s on SALE for just today only…grab ’em while you can!) Sometimes your simplest pieces make the best of looks.

GREY AREA

december12

Today, I’ll be spending the day working with Canon…shooting. I’m so excited for what’s in store! It’s got me rummaging through my inspiration files that go way back when. Natalia by Mario Testino. Kate Moss in 1994. Jane Birkin’s 60’s white on white ensemble. All images that’ll forever live in my head, and continue to inspire for decades to come. Sometimes life isn’t always just bright colors and sunshine. Just iconic and legendary moments.

90’S CHILD

When I first saw the new O’neill collection, I thought: the 90’s. The striped shaggy sweaters. Floral kimonos. And psychadelic dip-dye dresses. All full of color and life. I took these California beach babe must-haves and added a bit of NYC edge to them. Take a peek at all 3 looks. Homage to my 90’s childhood. Complete with doodles of everything I had mashed up in my head. FLOWER POWER.

It’s all about planning something unplanned. I gave this extra bohemian maxidress a little more edge layered with a white bodysuit, and my favorite harness boots.
