June Gloom Blooms Are Culottes
As you may or may not know, I have been wanting to buy myself a bouquet of peonies for years now. The experience was quite remarkable–from spotting the buds in the midst of many breathtaking blooms at the flower market to watching them slowly wake up, stretching their petals out completely to reveal their awestruck…

Postcards From San Francisco
As far as I’m concerned, no time period is ever out of fashion. In fact, I sometimes live life through not only rose-tinted glasses—but sepia tinted ones too. That’s why in today’s post at the 20th Century Café in San Francisco, I tinted the photos to match what I personally see when walking through San…

Keeping the Car Krischic
Even cars need to stay fashionable. And let me tell you, the Krischic brand does not stop at clothes. It’s a lifestyle. That’s why I gave my fabulous car, Maximus some Krischic accessories–or rather license plates. It makes driving around LA and road trips that much more enjoyable.

Keeping it Clarsonic: My Experience
I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t set aside enough “me” time. I am a recovering “yes” woman with ambition the size of America and will sacrifice sleep for success. That is why it’s crucial for me to have a skin routine that makes my face feel and look radiant. When I have…

An Antique Autumn Lookbook
I feel like I cheat on the present with the past on a daily basis. The past is evocative. The past is romantic. It’s a hopeless love affair that I cannot seem to quit and frankly, refuse to. I want to keep reading classic literature. I want to keep watching period dramas (Downton Abbey and…

How to Achieve the ‘Overdressed’ Casual Look
I am not going to lie for a split second about this. I am the girl who is always overdressed. I love a good cat eye, crisp shirt, bold lip, and wear white shorts after Labor Day. I am a daily fashion divergent and proud of it. Therefore, you can most certainly find me wearing…
