It came to my attention that despite the Summer 2020 season being canceled, the San Francisco Opera is still, in it’s own way, ON. Last weekend, they streamed Mefistopheles on their website for free, so of course I brought out a fancy dress with lantern sleeves, moisterized my spray tan, popped some popcorn, and cozied […]
Welcome back and thanks for visiting the blog in the midst the pandemic turbulence! Today’s post is a practical, fun take on how to style a skirt set you either already have, or have been tempted to invest in. You know the one – a high-waisted, wiggly midi skirt with a cleanly tailored crop top, […]
I’m not one for celebrity gossip, but hear me out: sometimes joy comes from unexpected places, yes? Such as the pop culture/high fashion/ eco-friendly-fetishwear-turned-trend trifecta of Balmain, latex, and the Kardashians, a prime example of when the whole is greater than the some of its parts. Let me back up a smidge. For New Years’ […]
How’s everyone doing? I realize that’s a loaded question nowadays, and one that becomes increasingly difficult to answer. Personally, life has gone a bit cattywampus, which has unfortunately resulted in fewer than usual blog posts. I have a feeling you’ll understand, and be patient as I wait for the smoke to clear and get back […]
After the trashcan fire that was the national stage last week, I think we can agree this weekend that responsibly-dosed escapism would do wonders for the psyche. May I suggest planning yourself a scintillating Valentine’s Day velvet outfit? [scroll down to see some V-Day picks] Even if you have zero plans – I mean, Rodrigo’s […]
Happy New Year! Back after some time off with family and friends and man, it is tough getting into those old routines. Our house is in a state of flux, with family flying in and out, Rodrigo prepping for a big Brazil trip, animals going to the vet for checkups and vaccines, and weeks of […]
We’re in the home stretch, folks – Hanukkah starts in 9 days, Christmas in 12, and New Year’s is barreling along shortly after. As someone who is perennially overdressed, I LOVE a chance to get super gussied-up and the holiday season is ripe with reasons to polish a shine in those stilettos, glue on some […]
Who else is ready to get decked OUT in the next few weeks? The holiday season madness has already hit our house, and it seems like more evenings than not, we have some event or party to hit up. Honestly, I didn’t realize I had that much going on in my life until I looked […]
The only upside to bikini season being over is that it’s fancypants season, with a bundle of reasons to dress up (what feels like) every weekend. Last weekend, of course, was Thanksgiving – and y’all, I figured out the Perfect Holiday Dress. [Yes, I know that, like life, you can’t “figure out” a dress, but […]
Another day of LA Fashion Week, another reason to dress UP! I am gradually succumbing to fall and, you know, wearing clothes for a change. The thing that hooked me and is beginning to change my grinch-like destain for the season are all the marvelous fabrics and textures that we wear in the cold. Enter: […]
