Lookbook: Creme Brulee Haze

by Heather
I'm sitting here in a creme brulee coma. I swear I was only going to eat half, but the spoon just took over. It's that time of the month, so calories don't count -- similar to the vacation rule. I pray my booty understands this. And I promise the food themed lookbooks will stop soon.

Tweed jacket by S-Twelve (sample piece found for $20 on a sale rack at some random store on Main St. in SM); Blue knit dress by Alternative Apparel; Scarf by Alternative Apparel; Earrings by PrettyFine; Rings by PrettyFine; Boots by Franco Sarto (bought several years ago).

BTW, the movie "9 1/2 Weeks" is playing in the background as I'm working on my laptop. Too bad my BF isn't here while I'm eating my creme brulee ;) I can't remember the first time I watched it, certainly not '86, but it was a long time ago. And wow, Kim Basinger is stunning and Mickey Rourke was pretty sexy in his heyday (hard to image now). Gotta love the classic '80s fashion in this movie: over-sized silhouettes, shoulder pads, menswear influence, nylon stockings, heavy black eyeliner.

Lookbook: Fashion Safety

by Heather

I'm all about comfy, casual, chic. Constantly searching for the great basic. I'm loving my new digs from Alternative Apparel (as seen in my previous two lookbook posts). Although, I may have to bust out a dress next week.

Is your fashion priority comfort or looks? ...or both?!

Lookbook: Dreamy Cream

by Heather
The weather was pretty moody this past week in So Cal. Chilly rain to start and then the sun came out and said hello with an 85 degree smile.
My weekend was nice and relaxing, Mel and I saw the movie "Couples Retreat". It was cute with some funny one-liners. How was your weekend?

Lookbook: Cozy Sweats

by Heather
It's been a bit cool and rainy the last few days in Los Angeles, so I've been in the cozy sweats mode. Luckily I work in the fashion industry where anything goes. In the evenings I've been curling up with a cup of hot tea, watching Mad Men through Netflix, and uploading my jewelry designs to Etsy. Boy, it's time consuming but I'm so excited to get it launched! I'll be doing a give away soon for all the wonderful UH readers!





Sweats by Alternative Apparel; necklace by Heirra; Vintage bracelet by Saint Thrift; boots by Miss Me (recently purchased from Endless for 50 bucks!)

Hope you're having a good week. Who's ready for Friday?!
