70s FLAIR

Image
Funny, as much as I talk about how much I love wearing something new, if I had to be really honest, I'd say that in many ways, wearing my tried and true favorites is what I love the most. In fact, most of the prized pieces I have in my closet, the ones I really enjoy putting on every time without exception have been with me for years. Like old friends you can always rely on, I can count on them to make an outfit and make me feel great while I wear them every time. Well, today's outfit just happens to feature some of these pieces. I picked up this suede trench coat just before Paris Fashion Week, and haven't stopped wearing it since. Aside from the fact that I love trench coats in general, this particular one is basically a perfect combination of all the elements one could look for in a trench coat. Not afraid of using the word "perfect" too much when referring to this particular piece, everything about it is just, well... perfect from material and color to length

A WEEKEND AT BIG SUR

Told you my favorite pair of leather leggings/pants travels everywhere with me. Last week they accompanied me to lunch in Beverly Hills (see  HERE ), few days ago we had an amazing adventure traveling to Big Sur. Wish I could describe every minute of the two amazing days I will most  definitely remember for the rest of my life, but I feel like pictures will do a much better job talking for me. Now that I am back home, I can't wait to do it again! Actually, Emil and I are already planning our next visit, which hopefully will happen soon. Very, very soon....!

NAPA VALLEY WINE TASTING

Image
I often wonder why I don't like the rain... I suppose in some way, growing up in Latvia, where come September, it rained non-stop for weeks at a time, I've come to associate the rain with the beginning of autumn, and more specifically, the end of summer and sunshine and this is perhaps the most important one, the end of Summer holidays. Always temped to curl up in bed, rainy days made me feel blue, so I'd hide at home and venture out only if I absolutely had to! Yet after spending the most wonderful weekend in rainy Napa Valley, I've come to realize that the rain isn't so bad at all when you find yourself in a wonderful place and in great company!:) Though Liz , Sam, Emil and I ended up exploring a few different wineries that weekend, one stood out in particular. Charming rustic appeal, great wine and beautiful views, made Frog's Leap Winery one of our absolute favorites by far. So, if you happen to find yourself in Napa, I highly recommend you make a stop!

Congrats to I Shopped Till I Dropped with winning a $100.00 with Gift Card!  Now that Summer heat is behind us, it's finally starting to feel like fall in LA. Which is why I've been so preoccupied with decorating for Halloween. I suppose, I went a little overboard this year, cause the whole place is drowning in pumpkins, spiderwebs and skeletons. Actually scared myself a few times, I guess early mornings and spider webs on kitchen cabinets don't exactly mix well:) Which has been the greatest source of amusement for Emil, apparently my fear of spiders is highly entertaining. Maybe I'll put one of those extra large life-like tarantulas in his nightstand drawer, and see how entertained he'll be when he reaches for his p
