Summer Sundress!

Yesterday was a glorious day ~ we had near 80 degree weather at the beach and sunshine! It felt like August! So this "light as a feather" off the shoulder, silk scarf dress from Zara was the perfect choice to soak up a little vitamin D!

The Bazaar

A visit to SAAM @ the Bazaar is a decadent dining experience. Chef José Andrés crafts a unique multi-course tasting menu of modern creations and traditional flavors. My favorites were the caviar cones and cotton candy martinis!

sizzle skirt

This Poleci knit skirt has been hanging in my closet for nearly a decade. Whenever I put it on it reminds me of the day I found it and how excited I was to purchase it! It's one of those pieces you never tire of, with its unusual color combination, beaded glitz, formfitting cut and mega fringe!!! Hence the name "Sizzle Skirt"!

marooned

If I was marooned on a desert island, although it's completely impractical, I would want this outfit ~ one of my very favorite dresses and my favorite hat! Just to remind me what civilized life was like! {and so I could play the role of Ginger!}

I bought this dress a couple seasons back at Bebe and still just love the unique cut and details

The faux crock trim pairs beautifully with my garnet jewelry and maroon boho hat!

At my desk editing pics for my blog! I love the digital age from creation to publication is so fast!

There's something about Mary

I happened upon Mary McDonald's gorgeous new book "The Allure of Style", and was just thrilled to browse through this beautiful book of classical interiors! This LA based designer definitely gets the SPECKtacular seal of approval!

Roberto Cavalli's rock star style!

I would have a seriously difficult time choosing just one of these amazing creations designed by Roberto Cavalli. For me, these are the most amazing things I've seen all year! And this fantastic photo campaign really does them justice!
