Sal’s

Last night I had an early birthday dinner at Sal’s in West Hollywood. Sal’s, normally based in Provincetown, touches down in West Hollywood for the winter months, serving Italian classics like linguini alla vongole, orecchiette with sausage and greens, and a chopped Caesar. It’s a warm and cozy atmosphere with dim lighting, beautiful flowers adoring the tables, and interesting people. I wore a ME+EM blazer, Mother jeans, Loeffler Randall boots, White + Warren cashmere sweater, and Toteme bag. While I was getting dressed I was missing a couple items from my wardrobe, a silk blouse (I like this ref one), a simple camel cashmere crew, and a fine rib turtleneck. I will be adding these items to my replenish list. Have a great day everyone!

This & That

I’ve been looking to replace my black jumpsuit and settled on the above one by A.L.C.. Everyone should have one in their repertoire, it can be worn over and over again and refreshed with shoes, jewelry, and shoes. I love the A.L.C. Kieran wide leg (runs true to size), the fabric is so flattering and it has stretch which makes it so comfortable. If you are looking for a sleeveless version this one at A.L.C. is one sale (also very flattering) along with this one.

Yesterday’s rainy day cozy outfit comprised of this Jenni Kayne sweater (mine is last season), Polo Ralph Lauren utility pants (I love!), Mansur tote bag, and Officine boots. While out and about yesterday I stopped by Faregrounds Beverly Hills to try the viral miso caesar wrap and it was delicious.

J. Crew teamed up with five independent New York based designers to put their unique spin on J. Crew’s iconic roll neck sweater. To check out the collaboration click here. My favorite from the collection is the above one by Eckhaus Latta.

From Hot to Cold

I started the weekend with 70 degree weather and ended it with below zero temps. Friday evening we saw Robert Glasper at the Blue Note with some incredible surprise guests. Herbie Hancock was in the audience so we got to witness an amazing tribute to him. I wore my favorite wide leg TWP trousers, Ulla Johnson top, and Toteme clutch. Then Saturday morning it was a last min trip to Ithaca NY so I had to pack for freezing cold temperatures. I brought my North Face Nuptse, Jenni Kayne Fair Isle cardigan, barrel jeans, and Officine boots. I also packed a cashmere beanie, power pink Eby bralette & undie set (I love wearing a bralette for airplane travel), cashmere gloves, (inexpensive so if you loose one no big deal) White Warren cashmere sweater, Buck Mason long sleeve shirt (layered it underneath), and Salomon sneakers. This LA girl is not used to the upstate NY freezing temperatures! It’s back to 70 degree weather tomorrow.
