FALL FLORALS

West Hollywood, CA

I've always wondered this: Why, during the summer, are maxi dresses everywhere, but come fall they seem to disappear? Minis and skirts get new life with the addition of tights and boots but somehow this longer style seems to get left behind. Afterall, it locks in heat, keeping us all sweaty during the summer months. So why are more people not wearing them when things start to chill down?

Thankfully this trend seems to be waning, and there are plenty of ankle-grazing frocks around at the moment. There are slip dresses and dark floral maxis that will look incredible with booties, mules or sneakers. And since it's in the 80's here today, I just wore it as is-- no jacket, no boots, no leggings.

STEP IT UP

Westwood, CA

I have a really hectic 9-5 routine—who doesn’t right? I work as a fashion editor and often early before I hit the office I do voice over work for a couple of kids animated shows. Odd, exciting, hectic, crazy (call it whatever you want) I am usually hustling to get 340 things done during a typical day. But no matter how crazed things get, I think it’s still important to express my personal style. That’s why I REALLY love the new limited edition Keds x kate spade new york leopard slip-ons. They are the ultimate fashion-meets-comfort shoe.

Great for fall, they will definitely be my go-to shoe for work, dinner—and everything in between! Animal prints are like neutrals. They show up on my must-have list season after season. Black, beige and powerful, it’s the killer combo of calf hair and leopard print that adds that necessary edge in this pair of flats.

From ripped skinnies or black trousers, to comfy leggings or a mini skirt, these shoes can take any staple piece from basic to bold in one easy step.

You’ll definitely see me running all over town in these!

A LITTLE GETAWAY

York Harbor, Maine

Who doesn't love a good weekend getaway? Easy to plan and usually spontaneous, these three-day trips have led to some of my best adventures. And because my family lives in New Hampshire, I always have the option to switch up my scene and jump coasts. And I take advantage of it—often. This past Labor Day Weekend, I met them in the little ocean town called York, Maine. It is always amazing to catch up with family, eat great seafood and disconnect with spotty wifi coverage. I only wish I could make them a weekly thing.

I wore this off-the-shoulder top to dinner one of the nights (that it wasn't pouring) and then also to a lunch (I packed light!) So flattering and cute, I love the puffy sleeves and stripes. It is undeniably great for summer and the thicker fabric also makes it a perfect transitional piece for fall.
