it’s like red but not quite

03/05/2011, biker jackets for life, isabel marant, silverlake, zara


(vintage silk shirt, Isabel Marant shorts, Zara jacket, ASOS hat, Topshop boots, Chan Luu bracelet)

New favorite default outfit…comfortable and just barely not boring. These sickeningly pink shorts are one of my favorite purchases for spring. Love the lace-up detailing and their ability to go with every mushroom-ish nothing-colored thing in my wardrobe. Perfect!

01/05/2011, silverlake, theyskens' theory

One more reason to fall in love with Theyskens’ Theory. It’s been a while since I’ve been into an electric blue shoe, or even a pump, but these look like they were crafted by at least a wizard. I guess this also means I’ll have to support crushed velvet transcending seasons. Actually no. It’ll be case by case.

(LF tshirt, J Brand red twill skinnies, Fiorentini and Baker suede boots, Whyred sunglasses, Alexander Wang clutch)

Red makes for a fun update to the old uniform..I cut these off at a nice awkward spot, ran them through the washing machine, and dressed them down with the tshirt I slept in all weekend and these floppy suede boots I got at Barneys last summer in Philadelphia. Which look awful worn all the way up (I tried again today just to make sure..gross gross gross) but so perfectly off folded over. Just another sunny day. Right now I’m off to go watch Hot Tub Time Machine and cool off with some watermelon.

10/04/2011, actually wearing jeans, brr dude, california love, General, j brand, la, silverlake, zara

(Zara knit, J Brand 10″ jeans, Theory bag, Dolce and Gabbana wedges)

It suddenly got so “cold” the past few days here in LA…I subsequently switched to giant sweater and jeans and literal effortless makeup mode. Obviously I’m not kidding around with the giantness, it is most unflatteringly tent-like. I got this thing last fall before NY fashion week and ended up leaving it on one of my highest shelves for um months shortly thereafter. Two huge faded patches to prove it. I only realized the hobbit window situated right above it all that time was the culprit after attempting to lint roll the faded sections off. Not my most evolved moment.

I got my hair touched up on Friday at Chris McMillan – the blonde bits were growing out and basically I wanted to extend them a little up again and even things out. The number of questions I get about my hair never ceases to amaze me and I always feel a little useless explaining that I used to bleach the crap out of it and then just stopped..least helpful response ever? Anyway, it was time for a little update. I made an appointment with Casey Carhart and went in slightly nervous about the first dye to touch my hair in almost two years..but she was so sweet and had exactly the light touch I wanted. The ends are brighter and the transition from light to dark more uniform now. Definitely recommend going to her if you want something similar done.
