Theme Songs


Smudged eyeliner + pounding head. Yea, it's the morning after. First things first:

"How'd I turn my shirt inside out?"

"Where are my keys? I lost my phone!"

Flashback to last night:
open bar
crashing random's bottle service
breaking bottles
powdering your nose
taking over the VIP booth
dancing on tables

pulling shenanigans and general debauchery.

New theme song: Lady Gaga "Just Dance"

So who's down to do it again tonight? More "Theme Songs"

The Perfect T-Shirt: KAiN Label




I am always on the hunt for the perfect T-shirt. Consequently KAiN Label has become my new obsession. The line only features three styles (Pocket T, Pocket Tank and V-Neck T), but all are made out of a luxurious 90% modal and %10 cashmere blend. The styles are a one size fits all oversized cut and come in Black, White, and Grey.

KAiN Label just became available for purchase 3 days ago at Madison, Intuition, Principessa, and Threadbare but most locations have already SOLD OUT. On the bright side Intuition is getting more stock in later this week.

As for me, I was able to nab the last Pocket T at Principessa in Venice and a white V-Neck T at the Madison on Robertson. However my search for the Pocket Tank is proving to be a bit more difficult than I had anticipated by taking me deep into the bowels of Valley. I've recruited a friend to road trip it with me to Threadbare this weekend in hopes of scoring some modal/cashmere goodness. Hopefully I'll also come back with some cute new spring and summer pieces as they are apparently pretty well known for their awesome and affordable (most items are priced between $20-$40) vintage selection. Wish me luck in the 818!

Chanel's Robertson Collection


Clockwise from top left: Melrose Mood, LA Sunrise, Rodeo Drive, LA Sunset

Is it totally tragic that I’m already over Blue Satin?

Well this promo pic of Chanel's Robertson Boulevard Nail Colour Collection doesn't help. My mouth is watering!

With the extra sunshine and clear blue skies, spring trends have given way to my anticipation for summertime looks and styles. I am totally ready to forgo spring’s dark blue manicured nails for the fresher, funner, orange hues of summer. So do I cop MonSooner Or Later, OPI's glossy new orange nail color from the India Collection, or should I be patient and wait for Chanel's Robertson Collection to drop so I can check up on LA Sunset? Or maybe I should just stop being extra and realize that I have a very serious problem probably due to all the nail polish fumes I inhale.

The good news is that these limited edition nail polishes will be available exclusively at the new Chanel store on Robertson Blvd, but the store doesn't open until May. As if I need any more excuses to visit the street that houses, Curve, Diavolina, and the best Gimlet’s on the most famous patio in LA. Don’t act. You know I’ll be there opening day, and after I check up on my goods I’ll be downing a victory Gimlet at the Ivy. See you on Robertson ladies and watch out for the paparazzi!

White Minis at Krystof Strozyna

How many times can you send the same white mini dress down a runway before it gets old?



Krystof Strozyna says 12.

And if you change the color to flamigo pink?


Repetitive much?

They are all beautifully tailored, but I feel like I’m getting a severe case of deja vu. More "White Minis at Krystof Strozyna"

Coats at Aquascutum!



Coats are the #1 reason I love Fall and Winter. The opportunity to wear fabulous coats year round was a major deciding factor in my relocation from La La Land to San Francisco.

Graeme Fidler and Michael Herz, the boys helming the design team for Aquascutm, clearly know why women love fall. It's the coats! The design duo showcased a myriad of military inspired coats and jackets that were feminine and sweet. While it was nothing revolutionary, a fabulous coat is still a fabulous coat. As for the rest of their collection, the separates were blah and the brocade bordered on tacky, but they managed to finish on a solid note of cute yet simple dresses.

My favorites and more pictures after the jump.

London Calling

London Fashion Week has begun!

And while I’m not too familiar with all the great designers who will be showing this week across the pond, Christopher Kane is definitely a name that's been on everyone's lips.

The Showstoppers:

He's the Wonder Boy who first made his mark on the London fashion scene three seasons ago with a collection of bondage dresses that referenced both Alaïa and Hervé Léger. Now, for his fourth collection Kane has traded in overt sexuality for something more subtle. For Fall/Winter 2008 Kane continues to incorporate the trend of sheer fabrics by pairing wispy featherweight chiffon dresses with layers of sequins and leather.

My favorites and more images after the jump.

Stella by Stella McCartney


Almost done with the bottle, but i'm thinking of switching it up and getting the Parfum.

I'm a sucker for packagaing, and it just looks so elegant... like my grandmother's perfume bottles. What do you guys think?
