I love this black floral Ulla print that comes in several different styles (as modeled by Amber Lewis of Amber Interiors).
Yesterday I stopped by the Rosewood Miramar hotel to have lunch at the Revere Room with a friend and check out the Dior pop-up. Not only did I fall in love with a pair of raspberry Dway Slides and a Mini Dior Book Tote but the hot pink toile wallpaper and lime green toile couches were cute as can be! It gave me some serious interior design envy! If you’re in the area it’s worth checking out along with a drive down the main drag of Summerland (which has some cute shops).

I hope everyone had a nice weekend. I hosted a Mediterranean dinner in my backyard over the weekend. I wanted to share how I made this simple and easy table setting.
Flowers – I went to Trader Joes’s and got Silver Dollar Eucalyptus branches and fuchsia daisies. I lined the table with greenery and placed the daisies in all different size vases and spaced them out on the table. Lastly, I added four candles down the table.
How to create a similar table setting below.
Above Outfit – Dress Banjanan (similar here, here, and here)
For appetizers I made mini boards with feta, grape leaves, kalamata olives, lavash chips, cherry tomatoes, truffle marcona almonds, and figs. I also picked up some really good organic wines that we enjoyed tasting.
Wine – Litrozzo Rosato // Litrozzo Roso // Lieu Dit Melon Bourgogne 2019 // La Cuisine de ma mere Chinon 2019
Have a great week everyone!

Yesterday I went to Abbot Kinney to pick up a new pair of Birkenstocks (got the cognac) and also stopped by the new Christy Dawn store. The store is so charming, spacious (compared to the Lincoln space), and beautifully merchandized. It’s stocked with sustainable dresses, tops, and denim. Check out my highlights from yesterday’s store visit below.
The Great just launched their Summer Sale which includes the above beautiful white dress. Some picks from the sale below.

I have a trip coming up and I’m on the hunt for a slightly dressier embellished flat that I can wear on vacation. Here are some that I found.
Restaurant Update – Over the weekend I had an amazing dinner at Felix. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there and the food is still excellent! I also went to Cerveteca which is a casual taco stand on Venice Blvd that serves up homemade tortillas and salsas (salmon tacos are amazing!).
I added some additional items to my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale post you can check it out here.
Have a great week everyone!

I love a bold print for Summer which Ulla Johnson executes so well. I’ve selected some beautiful prints by Ulla along with several other designers below.
Recipe Update – For those of you who asked for my Peach Crisp recipe I made over July 4th, it’s Ina Garten’s Old-Fashioned Apple Crisp. I just switch up the fruit depending on the season and it always turns out great!
