NEUTRALS IN MONTAUK

I’m gearing up for the holidays on the East Coast. My very first ever. Normally I whisk myself back to Los Angeles to be with my family and soak in the hot sun, but this year, they are coming to visit me here in New York. Lucky me! It’s time to bundle up with our mittens, hop in a car, and explore what is outside the city. Here I am flashing back to an early fall weekend in Montauk with my family at Gurney’s. The resort was quiet. Peaceful. Nostalgic. The sound of the waves felt so deep and loud in the middle of the night. To wake up and hear it is just the best feeling in the world. I didn’t pack much. Just a crochet bikini and a lot of soft cottons and cashmere sweaters. It’s funny how I tend to blend in with my surroundings. From the nudes of the sand to the warm green from the all the brush, you’ll find bits of it in my wardrobe. I tend to be a chameleon when I’m surrounded by nature. You’ll even notice a lot of pieces here are from Sabrina SL‘s latest sustainable fashion collection. This woman is a dear friend and she too finds Montauk to be an incredible source of inspiration. The pastels like soft lavender and cloudy grey found in her pieces are inspired by Montauk’s ever changing sky. Just the thought of more weekends like this with loved ones puts a smile to my face.

NINA SHOES X NATALIE OFF DUTY HOLIDAY 2019 CAMPAIGN

What better way to kick off the holidays than a major girls night! I am so excited that my Nina Shoes Holiday 2019 campaign is officially here! The Nina Shoes holiday collection is all about high shine and cool girl glamour, which is exactly what I wanted my lovely friends and I to embody here. Nina Shoes is a brand I have grown up with. A party wasn’t a party without a pair of Nina shoes. They always complemented me at my most elegant of occasions, including bags and even jewelry now. For Holiday 2019, it’s all about chic glittering pumps, feathered booties, and a little bit of rainbow shine. I threw a holiday get together at my home with my best friends. Each shoe and accessory tells the personality of each guest with everything from a classic kitten heel for the feminine girls to a a sleek black bootie for the rock n’ roll lovers. Everyone dressed up to feel good in their own skin, and also to stand out. Nina Shoes can be dressed up to go with an out-of-this-world sparkling dress just as boldly as they are dressed down with a perfect leather pant. The party has officially started once the Nina Shoes roll in. And then all of a sudden, everyone is dancing on my kitchen counter. It looks like the party was a success!

CELEBRATING THE RITZ-CARLTON COMING TO MEXICO CITY | FORMULA 1 MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS

Vroom Vroom! What better way to celebrate The Ritz-Carlton coming to Mexico City in 2020 than at this year’s Formula 1 race? The Ritz-Carlton has partnered with Mercedes AMG Petronas to give us exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the race! Traveling the world with The Ritz-Carlton has been a dream, and it feels extra special to go somewhere so close to my heart. My grandfather was born and raised in Mexico City, and all my life, I wanted to discover this very large city that is a huge part of my roots. Naturally, I am drawn to the city’s colorful streets, music, and flavorful spices. Mexico City feels like one big familia. I could really feel the heartbeat of it here at the Formula 1 racetracks. You could see how much love and teamwork goes into such a big event. It’s a pretty incredible sport that celebrates passion and togetherness. From the sounds of the mariachi band singing and dancing to the screeching cars going at lightning speed, this trip to Mexico City made me feel alive. You’ll want to come back more to discover more art and amazing culinary experiences like a cooking class at Sobremesa which we had the pleasure of doing so with Formula 1 driver Esteban Guttierez, or an inspiring walk through the Museo de Arte Moderno. There is art and new friendships to be made all around this city. It’s time I brush up on my Spanish before my next visit. And what better reason to come back than to visit the new The Ritz-Carlton, Mexico City

4 WEEKS WITH OLAY’S RETINOL24 COLLECTION

*This post is sponsored by Olay, but all thoughts and opinions are my own*

// Olay Retinal 24 night serum, night moisturizer, and night eye cream // 

I decided to give retinol a go for the very first time with Olay’s Retinol 24 collection. I’m so excited to share that retinol is finally attainable, affordable, and actually super gentle thanks to Olay. Retinol is something I would hear my mom ordering as a prescription on the phone and that was all I knew about it. It sounded intense, too irritating, and just something hard to get a hold of. But I knew it was coveted. The secret to everyone’s anti-aging obsession. Olay’s Retinol 24 collection, featuring a night serum, moisturizer, and eye cream, has completely changed the way I look at this powerful ingredient. Plus, it’s a lot easier to get a hold of! For 4 weeks, I tried the night serum and fell madly in love it. In just after 24 hours, I noticed my skin already feeling firmer, and with time, any dark spots from the summer sun have completely faded. That’s what retinol does, it improves your skins textures and brightens it. The Olay Retinol 24 night serum has changed the way I look at skincare, and it’s probably the most important part of my nightly skincare routine! It’s potent and provides 24 hour hydration. Retinol is proven to brighten the skin and improve fine lines and wrinkles. Luckily, retinol doesn’t have to feel scary anymore, and I feel a lot more educated this ingredient. I feel I’m getting closer and closer to my skin goals. Now aging is one less thing to worry about. It keeps working, all day long.
