an L.A. dream (part 2)

Snaps from the Lucky Magazine’s Lucky Fabb (Fashion & Beauty Blogger) conference at the beautiful Annenberg Community Beach House in Santa Monica. Had so much fun listening to great speakers on the business of blogging and fashion and mingling with fellow bloggettes and friends right on the ocean shore!

the outfit: Joie linen top, Trina Turk ‘Talia’ silk pants, Zara heels, Kooba ‘Camden’ purse, Ray Ban aviators, floral crown made by me

charming and hilarious Elizabeth Banks (check out her girl funny website here “I love things that make me giggle”) in an awesome Alexander McQueen dress and Jean-Michel Cazabat shoes

“I believe deeply in the power of resilience” -Zac Posen, great speaker and his business savvy is impressive

new gal pal Jenni of I Spy DIY (check out her new book here) and Kate Somerville on the entrepreneur panel- two girl power favorites

Mad Men’s costume designer Janie Bryant and BFF Kiernan Shipka (Sally Draper), loved hearing about Janie put together the color palettes for Sally and Betty’s costumes this season (in contrast to each other as Sally rebels against her mother) and how much Kiernan loves Style Rookie

my childhood fashion idol, Soleil Moon Frye (aka Punky Brewster): “I truly believe there’s never been a better time for female entrepreneurs”

A great day and a great experience overall, thanks Lucky!

an L.A. dream (part 1)

outfit 1 black maxi: James Perse racerback maxi dress, Old Navy denim jacket (sim here), Kooba bag, floral crown made by me
outfit 2 yellow dress: H&M neon yellow maxi dress, Big Buddha multicolored clutch
outfit 3 pink dress: Old Navy pleated maxi dress (also worn here), vintage belt, Vince Camuto heels, Ray Ban aviators, Kooba bag

Some snapshots from my weekend in L.A. for the Lucky Fabb conference! A floral crown and dyed pink hair tips were my look for the weekend. I made the floral crown specifically for the trip, inspired partly by miss Lana Del Rey and an extension of my signature flower headband look from 2 years ago. It seemed just so perfect for a spring fashion weekend spent in bohemian L.A. I so love any kind of hair accessory (remember these?). I dyed my hair (washes out) with this – it works better on true blond hair but I liked the subtle, pastel effect I got with my blondish balayaged tips.

Fun for the weekend included Saturday pool and beach time with gal pals Krystal and Natalie, a Sunday blogger brunch (aren’t we all so cute?!) at the Viceroy where we stayed, dinner at the awesomely delicious ‘pop up’ restaurant  Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing on Abbot Kinney in Venice (where we sat next to the insanely good-looking Ian Somerhalder which was exciting to me only because I am a huge Lost fan), playing L.A. dress-up for a cocktail party at the Kelly Wearstler boutique on Melrose, and a trip complete with outfit pics to Opening Ceremony. More pictures from the actual conference coming tomorrow and I promise I don’t wear another maxi dress, ha. The floral crown, however, does make a repeat appearance.

scarfed

Zara scarf print top, J Brand jeans (sim here), old BR shoes, BR bag, Ray Ban aviators, M by MJ watch, c/o 31 Bits beaded bracelet, Chan Luu rhinestone wrap bracelet

 Just a little scarf print comin at ya – how pretty is this Zara top in shades of blue? It actually reminds me of classic china. I love it and have been wearing it a ton lately with all sorts of different things- dressing it up and down. I love a good top that can do double duty.

As I am posting this I’m running off to catch a plane to L.A. for the weekend! I’m attending Lucky Magazine’s blogger conference on Monday in Santa Monica and will be spending the weekend galavanting around L.A. with partners in crime Krystal and Natalie and I am sure a few more blogger friends. You can keep up with what I am up to on twitter and instagram. You can also follow the conference on twitter via the hashtag #luckyfabb and @luckymag. Can’t wait to share my pictures next week, I’ve got some pretty fun outfits planned. xx
