BCBGMAXAZRIA Fall 2013 Runway

     

     

{BCBGMAXAZRIA FALL 2013 RUNWAY}

Max and Lubov Azria presented their Fall Runway collection grounded in black & white, with accents of navy and oxblood.

The grunge-inspired looks consisted mostly of tunics and dresses layered with a jacket or luxurious color-blocked fur and over-the-knee pumps. The models had barely-there makeup and blowouts with knit beanies. See the full runway show here.

MC Home

Growing up, life revolved around the kitchen in my parents house. 

We were always cooking, mixing cocktails, and entertaining guests in the kitchen. 

When I was apartment hunting, there were two things I really wanted: 

1. a walk-in closet

2. a big kitchen

I wasn't sure I would find the latter in a studio apartment, but I was sold as soon as I stepped foot in the kitchen during the open house. Complete with granite countertops, black and white checkered floors, and a little breakfast nook by the window.

Spring is in the air

The warmer weather in LA has me excited to wear my spring wardrobe. 

Currently feeling inspired by pastels, crochet details & light layers.
