Summer is officially on my mind. And this season, I’m doing things a little differently. I’ve traded in my slip-on sandals for this breathable new sneaker by Reef: the ROVER. I grew up with the California label, known for it’s killer surf vibe and effortless style. Trust me, California girls do it better. Everything’s made for digging your feet in the sand, and running to and from the next wave. With festival season rapidly approaching (see you at COACHELLA) I’ve been looking for the perfect shoe to dance the night away in the desert sand. Who said sneakers were only for the treadmill?! I like to style the Reef Rover with floral prints and mini dresses, layered with bikinis and sunhats. I can’t explain how lightweight and amazing this sneaker really is. Sleek and simple, it goes with everything. Now give me a pina colada, a bottle of sunscreen, and my shortest denim shorts. California, here we come.

STAGE WHISPER

Friday, March 20, 2015

Style, Travel

I miss that golden glow that just radiates in Paris. I think of Jane and Serge. Charlotte’s “Stage Whisper.” Always on repeat on my playlist. Romantic and sultry. We found ourself leaning over the baloncy, just to get a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower lighting up, laughing like children and holding our wine. Screaming out words in our horrible French accents. Paris is more about enjoying the quality of life. Sitting in a cafe, and staring out into the street. Long conversations in the back of the nightclub. In America, we call it “straight up chilling.” But in France, it’s just a part of everyday life. Merci beaucoup. I think I finally know how to be Parisian.

SPRING JEAN | 7FAM

Saturday, March 14, 2015

Style

The bootcut is coming back full swing thanks to 7 For All Mankind and I’m so excited for a brand new fit: the High Waist Vintage Bootcut. Perfectly sitting high on your waist, with a little bit more flare than the average bootcut. I’m loving everything about this major 70’s comeback. Where blue denim ruled and everything revolved around fun shapes and wild proportions. I’m such a denim girl through and through. Nothing feels more sexy than slipping into your favorite, most flattering pair of jeans. Though my drawers are toppling over with black skinnies, raw hems, and other insane denim…this exaggerated bootcut remains a classic and adds a more sophisticated touch. Spring for me really is all about finding the perfect jean to live in day after day, wash after wash. Something to wear for a walk in the park, to dance in at a gig, and still be able to shimmy into early again the next morning. Experimenting with new and unexpected shapes. Because nothing we do, including what we wear, should be just plain and simple. Take your distressed denim jacket and wear it as your favorite top. Shake it up.

ZADIG ET VOLTAIRE | PFW

Wednesday, March 11, 2015

Style

Magical Paris! How I miss you so! I was in town with the lovely ZADIG ET VOLTAIRE team for Paris Fashion Week, and they definitely taught me the ropes to being Parisian. Rule 1: Never brush your hair. Rule 2: Smoke cigarettes at the Louvre in the Paris sunlight. Rule 3: It’s totally okay to wear a beret and French kiss. Rule 4: Drink wine until you pass out. Just kidding. But most importantly, have that je ne sais quoi. Zadig Et Voltaire is a brand I’ve loved forever. Their rock n’ roll aesthetic always drew me into their lair. The rock studded boots, feathered hats, and leather overalls. For the show, I went with this stardust maxi and fur vest. Dark, and just what I wanted to slip into the night in along the quaint streets of Montmarte. Blending in so well for their runway show, which also doubled as an underground nightclub complete with guitars, leopard couches, and extra strong liquor. The theme of the night was GROUPIE. Babes who can wear star-studded bras and oversize fur vests to a gig. Smudged eyeliner and all. All I can say is: I’M WITH THE BAND MAN.
