Bobbi Brown Does Fashion Week

Did I happen to mention that my make-up bag bears a heavy resemblance towards something like this?

Bobbi. Obsession.

I kind of really adore how she takes au naturel to the next level at Halston...

and adds just a touch of smokiness to the lid at Tibi.

At Rachel Roy she stepped up the romance with tones of olive and copper, and I kinda fell in love with fall all over again before spring has even sprung...

All via

...and just because I'm feeling brave, or rather I'm not feeling well again, and looking terribly vain is the least of my worries, this is my Bobbi. Do you Bobbi Brown?

My favorite Face Palette, Mauve, by Bobbi Brown. You can find it here!

10,000 Count Pucci

 Limited Edition Book on everything Pucci. Wrapped in recent Pucci fabric. Only 10,000 made...ever!!

I'm always finding myself in bookstores. My last jaunt to NYC I spent entirely too much time at Marc Jacobs' curated bookstore in the West Village, Book Marc, and for $1.50 bought these for kicks, but mainly because I couldn't afford to fork over $200 for Pucci. At the Grove in LA this past weekend, we met again. Only 10, 000 copies available in the entire world. Each unique copy bound in a recent Pucci fabric. My coffee table is seriously coveting...just one.

Again the piggy bank ran in the other direction at the sight of the $200 price tag so instead, I bought a beignet for a $1.95...

...and people watched for free :)

Weekend Picture Book I

Hi my darlings! We just walked in the door from our weekend extravaganza, and I couldn't wait to share bits of our trip with you. A and I flew to LA to attend the Open Hearts Inaugural charity gala at Jane Seymour's home in Malibu. We proudly had our rent-a-Kia valeted (right behind Emmit Smith's town car and before a sweet Benz...entirely ludicrous, we could not stop laughing), I got my pic with Robin Roberts from GMA, met India Arie who is insanely down to earth and super cool, and lots of money was raised for a good cause! Did I mention the party was sponsored by Patron? Heaven.

I must unpack before the week and wash off these airport germs, so I'll share many more moments from our trip tomorrow. Can't wait to catch up with y'all! Until then, kisses loves :)

Happy Birthday, Mom and Good Luck, Sis

Left, right! Left, right! Playing dress up at the Royal Palace in Seoul this past summer

I'm pretty sure Royal prison guards don't have this hard of a time standing at attention!

Today is my fabulous mother's birthday and my darling baby sister's first collegiate tennis match. I'm on the entirely wrong coast, but I'm thinking of them today. Happy Birthday, Mom and Kase, I'm so proud of you! I love you both very much!

Happy Weekend from Cali!

My darlings, what are you doing this weekend? A and I will be navigating our way around sunny Cali in a rent-a-car with a gps and hopefully a little bit of luck. We hope to eat our way through LA with Anthony's help, hike the hills, and catch up with some old friends. On Saturday, we're getting all gussied up to attend an event and somehow, once again with said luck, I'm hoping to get my hair into a messy chignon.  Any helpful pointers, loves?

Retro Glam Fascination

RETRO. GLAM. DESIGN. Kelly Wearstler’s redesign of the landmark Tides South Beach.

RETRO.GLAM. DRESS. The "hostess gown" in Woman's Day 1967

I'm absolutely fascinated with this so-called hostess gown that keeps popping up on several vintage sites I've come across. Have you heard of them?  I'm dying to find one and have had full on daydreams of throwing a fabulous social. Cocktails would all be certain throwbacks- gimlets, gin fizz, the French 75, the pre-Prohibition Waldorf's Jack Rose. My home would be decked out in Wearstler retro glam, and I of course, would be in my hostess gown! Do you fancy my fête?

Pretty Little Things

BHLDN is so pretty, it kills.

Pretty dresses, pretty shoes. I can't seem to fit enough into my suitcase this morning! How do you manage to fit fête-worthy "options" into your carry-on? I'm afraid my silk frock is going to look horrific once I make it to the opposite coast. On another gorgeous note, have you seen it? It's been traveling at lightning speed around the world wide web. BHLDN by Anthro is truly a sight to behold!!
