I always love a great structured blazer and this GULSHACHERELI jacket is exactly that. The shoulder details are gorgeous and the jacket drapes beautifully. Plus, it’s so surprisingly soft and comfortable on! It’s perfect to dress up any outfit for a chic sophisticated look. Easy to toss on, on your way to the office or out to a lunch meeting – which is exactly what I did last week when I was frantically getting dressed running late to a meeting for my day job. I love that it was just as easy to toss it on with this outfit here, to head out for some Christmas shopping before dinner. I paired it with this pretty Sugarlips blouse because the collar detail just felt like it was meant to be paired with the jacket and these YMI leopard print jeans were a fun pop of pattern underneath. My blush pink Audrey sunglasses added that quirky touch to finish it off.

This outfit was also a reminder of my big accomplishment yesterday – I finished shopping for Christmas gifts! YES! Lol just a mere 3 days before the day but hey, it’s done, right? Have you finished Christmas shopping?

Shopping

THEIT Studded Bossi Bag

The Bossi Bag – Studded Black c/o THEIT

It’s rare that I do a dedicated post to a particular item (the only times being my anniversary gift from the hubby, these stunning hand crafted shoes and handmade leather goods), so when I do, know that it’s because I’m pretty obsessed with it 😉 . This THEIT Bossi Bag is definitely one of them. Previously mentioned in my Fashion Blogger Gift Guide post, not only is it a gorgeous studded quilted black bag with a chain braided cross body strap, a Chanel inspired every day staple. It’s a camera bag. It’s a freakin’ dSLR camera bag!!! I mean, really? I can’t even! So so so perfect.

It has adjustable compartments so you can move around the padded dividers to fit your camera lenses and any other belongings. I love that it fits my dSLR with a lens attached, plus another lens and still, all of my other belongings like my wallet, makeup pouch and cell phone. I can even slip my iPad in on the side between the padded dividers and bag! Even better? The entire padded compartment is removable, so you can carry it as a normal purse if you decide not to bring your camera at all! There are also tons of pockets inside and out – perfect for your lip gloss, business cards or extra memory cards!

…it started sprinkling when I took these shots… lol

It’s definitely been an every day bag since I received it! No more lugging around my dSLR on my shoulder or letting it get tossed around inside my other bags! Seriously, a fashionable camera life saver 🙂 . Love it!

Last Sunday, I attended Two Point Oh! LA’s annual fashion blogger holiday party, Snowball. I met up with some of my dearest blogger friends for dinner beforehand at Katsuya and then we walked two blocks to the party, taking advantage of the stroll by striking a few fun Sex and the City inspired poses on the way.

I had such a blast partying it up with all my fellow bloggers and friends! Another fun holiday party in the books 🙂 hope you’re all enjoying this time of year, too! Christmas is my all time favorite holiday!

Beauty What To Wear

Dry cut by Mika Fowler of Gavert Atelier Salon + Insane Jungle Jacket + Michael Stars Tee + YMI Red Skinny Jeans

The other week, I finally made an appointment to get my hair cut; it’s been over a year! It was also my first time visiting Gavert Atelier Salon and having my hair cut by celebrity stylist, Mika Fowler. Mika is famous for her dry cut – “described as cutting the hair after it is blow dried as opposed to when it is wet which assists in maintaining both the hair’s health and style. She likes that is a free flowing style that is not weighted down. She believes that you can best see the hairs natural body when it is dry which makes it easier to cut. Dry hair with natural body, makes it easier to cut a line that compliments the face. As free-spirited as she is, her dedication to precision is what makes this particular cut her signature craft. Celebrity Clients include Annalynne McCord, Malin Akerman, Rosario Dawson, Karina Smirnoff, Cameron Monaghan, Ali Fedotowsky, Emanuelle Chriqui and many more.” via Mika’s website.

I cannot tell you enough how much I love my hair. The style’s not a crazy dramatic change from how I had it before but it’s all in the details. Mika managed to get all my (horrendous) split ends and yet I still have my length and with perfect face framing layers! My hair has so much more bounce now and I love that my layers look good regardless if my hair is straight or curled. Mika was such a delight to work with; so sweet, talented, accommodating and detailed. Of course, having your hair done in the heart of Beverly Hills by a celebrity stylist, enjoying a great massaging shampoo beforehand while indulging on refreshments (champagne, anyone?) is always such a treat!

Special thanks to Mika Fowler, Gavert Atelier Salon & Pivotal PR!

By the way, I haven’t dyed or chemically treated my hair in 7 years so what you see is all natural virgin hair. 🙂

Who’s your favorite salon or go-to stylist?

Happy Friday! Have a great day everyone!

I wore this look to the aforementioned Sole Society party as well as the AGAIN Holiday Party at the new hot boutique, KIN Los Angeles last week. Both were on the same night and we had such a blast! I absolutely adore the silhouette of this dress! So sweet and girly but short for that sexy touch 😉 . Since I wore it with these over the knee boots, kickin’ that sexiness up an extra notch or two lol, I decided to pair it with this giant bow belt to cool it off and heighten the girly feel. Maybe it’s just me but I feel like I’m definitely channeling a Japanese fashion moment here – loved it!
