Our Paris balcony was too heavenly for words. Where I’d drink my coffee in the morning in my PJs, yet still the absolute best place to watch the fireworks on Bastille Day. Each spark lighting up Rue de Tremoille at night like a street lamp. After days of traveling, all I could think of wearing was the softest tee I packed, and extra flared flares. Good enough to go out late into the night, and crash into bed with early the next morning. BON VOYAGE, so they’d say on Air France! I loved our flight…leaning on Jordan and honestly not really wanting our European adventures to end. Watching countless movies the whole 8 hours home. But I’m back in NY, and I’m quite happy to be back. There hasn’t yet been a dull moment…everyone’s constantly on the move, never really stopping, there’s always more and more to see and do! It seems every designer I know or who have worked with is in town for these two weeks…dinners start and end later and later, filled with laughter and wine…yet in the back of my mind, I know I should be going to bed. Anyways, I’ve gone from city to city to city, and I think one relaxing Sunday out by the beach is calling my name! Paris, I do still miss you…and I love how I always feel like I’m looking through rose-tinted sunglasses…especially in these photos…that pink hue I always talk about, taking over the frame. I’ve got many more little stories to tell. Au Revoir!

SONY Xperia Z Smartphone Launch

It’s here! The Sony Xperia Z smartphone, exclusively at T Mobile, and I have to say, I am beyond excited to try this baby out. I flew back from Paris on Monday, and just in time for last night’s big SONY launch party and concert, out in Soho, in what used to be a gorgeous 5 story loft…so beautiful, and complete with an indoor pool! Yep, it was an underwater adventure, filled with violinists in the pool, and a blue-lit hue throughout the whole venue. The smartphone is one that works UNDERWATER, and we were all in there, throwing the phone in the pool, and yep, it does work in the deep blue sea and you can take absolutely gorgeous underwater snapshots. I’m dying to take this baby out to the ocean this summer when I’m back in California for work next month. It was another gorgeous, hot summer night in the city, and I’m so so so happy to be back. All of my favorite people together in one place again and most of all, PASSION PIT! I love these guys and so I crept right up to the front just to listen. Sleeeeepyhheeead still plays over and over in my head. With Dylana, Kelsea, and the rest of our pals, we had a LONG LONG Tuesday night, and honestly, I’m just dying to open up my phone and try that baby out in the pool! Here’s to a warm welcome back to the States! x
