Cashmere, Bleach and Studs

Since the weather in LA has had a bit of A.D.D. lately, I figured perhaps my outfit should too. I threw this on to go run errands during a brief reprieve from the rain.

These cut offs are my new favorite thing (besides my denim jacket and my tangerine sandals of course! ) They are so comfy and perfectly bleached to shreds. They seemed like the perfect thing to pair with a cashmere sweater and studded booties to keep up with the seasonal confusion! :)

{Sweater – Ann Taylor, Blouse – Forever21, Denim Cut offs – Car-Mar, Belt – Target, Booties – Steve Madden, Bag – Vendor, downtown LA, Sweetheart ring – Jewelmint, Purple ring – Modcloth, Bracelets – Jlynn Jewelry, Forever21 and Leilands}

I know many of you were having trouble commenting on Friday. Apparently there was a glitch in my twitter widget so I ditched it! Problem should be solved!

I discovered the Bloglovin app for iphone over the weekend and now I am able to keep up with all of you right from the palm of my hand! Make sure you are following me so you can do the same!

Friday Inspiration

I saw these photos on The Coveteur and was instantly inspired. The first one, for what to wear to the party I am going to Saturday night! I am dying to make over my apartment but being that doing so is a long arduous process and I am an instant gratification kind of girl, I am still trying to figure out how I am going to pull it off. In the meantime I am filling up on inspiring photos like the second one! :)

Happy Friday!

PS. Today’s the last to to enter the giveaway!

Beauty Swag


There is little I love more than swag, especially when it’s fashion or beauty related. Part of the perks of doing what I do is getting some pretty cool stuff. There are two things I received lately that have changed the world as I know it…so naturally I need to share!


ITEM 1: GHD FLAT IRON

For years I tried to find the flat iron that could take on my long, thick mane and always ended up disappointed. I finally gave up this quest and left it up to the professionals, getting a blow out only on special occasions.

But then wonderful Shae at Bollare gave me this AH-MAZING GHD flat iron…translation? Bring on the sleek straight hair!!


These pics are not very good since I took them myself and my arm clearly does not extend long enough to get my whole head in the pic, but hopefully you get the point…pic 1 = Frizz, pic 2 = sleek!


ITEM 2: BEAUTISOL SUMMER GLOW DARK SELF-TANNING LOTION


Ladies…RUN don’t walk to get this stuff! (ok I am being dramatic, all you have to do is click !)


I am ashamed to admit I have been in and out of tanning beds over the years. Being a model, I am often in swimsuits, and being tan is a job requirement. Since quitting that very terrible habit, I went on the search to find the perfect self tanning option. Constantly disappointed by the smell, streaking or not so natural looking color I had settled on a spray by banana boat for the last few years. It was definitely settling, but it seemed like the lesser evil….until along came Beautisol!!


Not only does this stuff not smell (no really, it DOES. NOT. SMELL!!) But it gives you the perfect tan color and has a fool proof bronzing shade which allows you to see where you’re putting it so don’t streak. Check out the website and be pale no more!

(I apologize that I don’t have pics but pretty much from now on when you see pics of me, I will have this stuff on!!)


Ok so a few other things I wanted to mention…


1.) You may have noticed the early stages of Mel and my lovechild : The Wear to go Girls! We are launching the site soon, but for now, we have Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr to keep you updated. Follow us, like us, (even feel free to love us!)


2.) Don’t forget to enter the giveaway for this Liquid Metal Bracelet! Deadline is Friday!
