Merry Christmas to all of those who are celebrating! If you’re doing any cooking over the holidays last night I made Sesame Noodles with caramelized mushrooms and Asian Meatballs, definitely worth making everyone loved it! Now onto today’s look….
My family and I are just returning from a long weekend in Santa Barbara. We stayed at the Rosewood Miramar Hotel which was amazing! The hotel is nestled into the Montecito coastline with beautiful ocean views. It’s modern traditional decor creates a cozy and intimate boutique feel. It has everything you need on property. Paddle boards, kayaks, and boogie boards are all provided at the beach. You can eat and drink beachside while sitting under their iconic turquoise and white stripe umbrellas. If you need to do a bit of shopping both Goop & James Perse have boutiques on site. We ate at Malibu Farm and Caruso’s and the food was excellent. The rooms are gorgeous and spacious, we had a Grand Bungalow which was perfect for a family of four.
We left the property to have breakfast at Helena Avenue Bakery, Hook & Press for donuts, and Lucky Penny for lunch (recommended by my friend Mandy). We rented Mokes from Wheel Fun Adventures and rode them around town. It was the perfect weekend getaway, and an amazing place to celebrate my daughter’s 16th birthday. We can’t wait to go back!
Now onto what I packed, here are some highlights….
Jessie Loeffler’s Knit for Good cardigans are back in stock (they won’t last long). The cardigan is 100% Andean Highland wool and made in Peru by knitters who provide support to local women and children living in poverty on the island Amantani. Loeffler Randall is donating 10% of sales to American Civil Liberties Union.
Florence Button Down Blouse Loeffler Randall, $175. New Arrival comes in white and dusty rose.
Shirt in the above picture is Doen but sold out. I like the Aubrielle Top by Loveshackfancy, $245. Net-a-Porter just received new Doen exclusive inventory check it out here.
Kassidy Bootie Loeffler Randall, $158. I just ordered these. I’m not usually a fan of final sale but they have stretch and the price was too good to pass up. (I went 1/2 size up).
For anyone contemplating the ever so popular Mansur cloud clutch I found the Cabernet color way for $200 less on Mythersa, $395 (instead of $595). Great evening clutch for the holidays.
