It’s a rainy night here in L.A. I’m wearing a short THAKOON black tie-dye print dress with a vintage tan leather belt that used to belong to my mother. Underneath, I have on a pair of black crochet tights from J.CREW. To keep warm, I’ve added a black and white striped scarf from India and a burgundy velvet blazer from J.CREW with the sleeves folded up to show the marigold-yellow satin lining. I’d like to wear a pair of embroidered lace-up red canvas slippers bought in S.F. Chinatown last summer, but due to the weather will probably end up wearing my vintage black cowboy boots that I’ve had since I was 15.

It’s been a bit cold here in LA lately. Always nice to be able to dress for it. So today, a pair of dark grey, almost black, HUGO BOSS slacks. A white, GAP v-neck shirt. A multi-color plaid button down from THE HUNDREDS. A scarf my sister brought home for me from her trip to Cambodia last year. A tan UNIQLO x Opening Ceremony cotton/linen jacket. PAUL SMITH neon green and grey striped socks to keep my feet warm. Espresso and khaki checkered VANS New Era shoes to top it off. In my pockets, folding wayfarers, COMME DES GARÇONS 3-zip wallet, keys and iPhone.
