I cannot figure out how to make that headline seem less spammy. But here’s the truth: despite my well-documented tumultuous relationship with workout brand Ellie (here, here, here), the actual clothes remain standbys in my rotation. I’ve even given pieces as gifts (Go With the Flow), and there are still pieces I covet but haven’t ordered. They…
Y’all, this is toilet paper. I would pin this convertible!! dress in a heartbeat, not knowing it was made from TP. This is 2014’s winner, Susan Brennan, who made this insane dress out of toilet paper. Toilet paper!! Think you can top this masterpiece? You can win $10K and see your dress made into a…
In the summer of 2006, I did costume design for a movie called Growing Out while interning at Shape mag and living in Brentwood—so celeb L.A. of me. ALL those clothes you see? I picked ’em out. Designed them, if you will. The movie I worked on is available on Amazon Instant Video ($1.99) and…
It’s like I just discovered Athleta. I kinda did. Since starting to play flag football in a league that has photographers out every weekend, I’ve had to pay attention to what shorts I own that not only are comfortable and don’t ride up, but look good on camera. It’s a tough bill. Most of the…
A signature look is necessary. I have style for sure, but it’s not signature. 2015 = signature style. I would like my overall signature look to be skinny pants, great shoes, and a fabulous blazer. Fun tanks/tees hide underneath. On (California) winter weekends, we modify to jeans or yoga pants, a backless tee, hoodie, and sneaks…
Is this a screen capture from 1973? Maybe. But I NEED this dress for the 2015 Kentucky Derby. WHICH I WILL BE ATTENDING. I’ll let that sink in; I know it hasn’t for me yet. Yes, I’m attending the Kentucky Derby. Like, in seats. Like, a celeb. So, hat and dress shopping begins now. Post…
Nike launched its first store + studio in the US at Fashion Island today, and I got to visit for a media preview, where I was given gear to wear during my media workout—and take home (who wants my sweaty used clothes? nobody). I wrote about the store and studio for Orange Coast mag, click here…
Living in SoCal, I don’t really NEED boots … but as a fashionista, I obviously NEED boots. Enter: neutral booties, the beach bum’s solution to winter in 70-degree paradise. Not too dressy, not too casual, for a creative, fashion-y office. Looking for neutral colors, NOT black or brown (although a few slipped in, whoops!). Leave a…
It has come to my attention that some people don’t know what unibutt is. I was aware of the problem, but a recent listing on Amazon.com, no less, made me realize that I need to speak up for the good of womankind. What in the name of all that is sacred in fashion is this?…
Look, I love to shop. But there’s a bit of an ethical dilemma—buying a $4 necklace at Forever 21 gives me the rush of shopping, something new to wear, something to not care about if it breaks, and lots of cheap jewelry taking up space on my wall. Buying a $4 necklace at Forever 21…
