Until recently, LA was having the coldest summer ever! So I got to keep some of my lightweight layering pieces around a bit longer…

Citizens of Humanity jeans, Michael Stars tank, Joie sleeveless duster and Pour La Victoire wedges.

I picked up these wedges as a summer neutral wedge. I love the style and crossing straps, but the toes push forward a bit to much for my liking.

I picked up this Joie duster earlier this year on uber clearance. I guess Bloomingdale’s really over bought on this one…

Org $268 – My steal $48!!

Kate Spade fold over clutch, Forever 21 scarf and personal vintage bracelet.

Off to the Project Show in Vegas!

Check in for details about what’s to come in contemporary fashion!

I attended the Nylon Magazine Denim issue release party at the London Hotel in Hollywood this past Tuesday. It was the normal Nylon crowd, hipsters with outfits that required 2-3 days of planning and a sprinkle of industry people enjoying the cocktails and people watching.

Bedrock by Express was the official event denim sponsor and gave out a pair of their new fall jeans to guest at the event.

Express Jeans ultra skinny Stella

I received a pair or their new Stella dark stretch skinny jeans. I like the plain indigo wash and low key pocket embellishment. The fit, was well… You get what you pay for. The denim was rather rough for a stretch and almost felt like a ridged. The crotch was a bit too low, leaving way too much unoccupied space.

But if you don’t mind the fit – they are a good option for a super sleek indigo skinny jean.

I didn’t wear anything special to the event… Just a normal cocktail look, here’s a pic anyway!

Bailey 44 blouse with beaded sleeves, BCBG power skirt, Marciano shoes, H. Studio cuff and Be&D chain link bag.

Have you ever rummaged through your mom’s closet looking for that sweater she swears she never borrowed – but you know from past experiences it’s buried in the back of her closet – behind the gardening clogs and cargo capris!

Well I recently had that experience – no stolen sweater was found- but instead I made out with something better…

A Roberto Cavalli waist pouch!

I Googled like a mad woman trying to find information on the pouch beside what little information was give on the tag. No luck!

It’s natural untreated leather with gold and onyx and studs, on a adjustable belt.

Not exactly sure what I am going to wear it with…

But you know I will share it with you…  Don’t worry, this was buried so far in the back her closet, she won’t come looking for it any time soon!

A few weeks ago I attended the Grand Opening Celebration of  H. Studio’s new showroom located in Downtown LA. I was able to give you a peak inside and share H. Studios’ artistically designed home furnishings and sculptures. I also got a sneak peak into the evolution of their new jewelry collection – from leather, studs and stones to the acrylic cuffs and bangles, the collection has something for everyone.

This weekend I received a surprise package on my door step… 

New H. Studio Acrylic Bangles!
