Jessica Simpson Trixie Platforms

I love edgy, chunky shoes like these Jessica Simpson Trixie’s. I like to think of them as being secretly versatile; they’re quite sexy as is but worn with a whimsical flowy top and loose ruffly shorts mutes the sexiness a bit making them not too over the top for a nice dinner date with the hubby and friends – think less clubbing, more romantic. Although these are quite comfortable like most Jessica Simpson shoes, her manufacturers really mastered the sole cushioning, these Trixie’s were a bit tricky (lol!). They’re borderline too small; I could probably get away with a half-size bigger but was too lazy to exchange them and even though I have tons of huge, chunky, what-the-hell-are-those shoes, these are on the wobbly side. I’ve had a couple close calls walking out and about; stay the hell away from cobblestone lol. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

Black Tiered Crochet Lace Shorts

I love the texture of these adorable shorts I scored at Nordstrom (Brass Plum). They’re so whimsical and sweet with a touch of sex appeal. The look would be so sweet paired with a simple white tee or a flowy chiffon top or even to the beach with a cute bikini! They also came in creme and now that I’m looking at these shots, I’m hoping they still have the creme version in my size in stock…

For the love of Lorissa

Brass Plum Mini Skirt, Forever 21 Grey Pocket Top, Angel Wing Necklace and Black Dome Ring, Jeffrey Lazaro Clutch Bag and Sam Edelman Lorissa in Nude Leather

Sam Edelman is a genius and his Lorissa’s happen to be one of my blog’s top search terms. (Thank you, fellow Lorissa fans!) So, now that it’s fall, I’m pretty disappointed in myself for not blogging the other two pairs I have, especially given how popular they are. I’m sure most of you that are regular visitors have seen the Black and Nude Leather Lorissa’s in past posts. What I haven’t shown you all are my two other pairs in denim and pink suede; yep, I have four pairs of Sam Edelman’s Lorissas… you’re judging me I can feel it! I fessed up to this questionable shopaholic habit here lol. Anyway, I never got to blogging an outfit in them because the outfits were either not blog worthy or we were too busy to take pics of them such a bummer. Now, I might be able to put them together with a look this Fall/Winter but they’re definitely Spring/Summer shoes so we shall see. I wanted to post them now before the love fades! Kidding never. If you’re a fan but want to wear them during F/W check out Sam Edelman’s Rozas! Love them too I’ve been eyeing the gold studded versions…

I’ve posted macarons many times before but none of them can even compare to the ones at Paulette’s. My Mom and I had been planning to check out ‘Lette’s for years now but just never got around to it. Since I moved up here to LA, my parents frequently visit and their last trip was the perfect opportunity for us to check out their Beverly Hills Location. Boy, are we glad we did. These little bites of heaven were mind-blowing. The flavor, texture, and just sheer beauty makes me want to twirl around like a ballerina. Seriously.

By the way, we’ve since then also tried out their Pasadena location. While it was a cute location with great variety of flavors, the Beverly Hills location still has a bigger selection.

Alcove Cafe

My husband recently snatched up the September issue of Los Angeles Magazine featuring 51 of the best breakfast/brunch locations, which happens to be his favorite meal of the day. We’ve tried out a few of them and so far one of our favorites is Alcove Cafe. It’s located in the affluent area of Loz Feliz and nestled underneath beautiful trees on a quiet street. The decor is an eclectic mix of vintage silver pieces with a french cottage feel. The food – divine. I had the Crab Cake Benedict and just looking at the photos is making me salivate… PS the icing on the cake was their bar staffed with talented mixologist. The bartender there when we dined here created this delicious grapefruit brunch cocktail, picture below.

PS looks like it’s a landslide victory for the Lola’s! Thanks for everyone who voted and to those who will (I’ll keep it open until I wear them lol)…
