back to school style






hat ralph lauren, top alternative apparel, clutch american apparel, watch hugo boss, pants 3.1 phillip lim, shoes j. crew

Life is so much more fun when you take a something classic and boyish and make it...not so classic and boyish. So why not pair a baseball cap with leopard print kitten heels and leather pants? So happy to be to be back at school, in my apartment, and nailing down my routine. Cheers to a new school year and the start of fall! 
Go bears?

l.a. lady



After spending a summer working in the fashion district in Downtown L.A., I can naively say that fashion is my calling. Though working in the industry is not as glamorous as it seems on the outside, I wouldn't have it any other way. It's frightening yet liberating- actually knowing what I want to do with my life. Here's hoping to a bright future!

Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand

greylin spring '13 editorial








Even an excruciatingly scorching day could not keep me away from another photoshoot. These shots are a behind the scenes look at Greylin's Spring '13 editorial looks. The clothes could not have matched the location any better as the colors completely complemented each other, creating a feeling of effortless ease and feminine beauty. It's all about lightweight fabrics, colorful prints, and easy dresses to welcome spring 2013. This shoot has even inspired me to bring a little more color into my wardrobe (but really maybe not until after fall and winter). Summer's not even over and we're already preparing for spring of next year. Don't you just love how the fashion industry always gives you something to look forward to (besides the obvious forthcoming dent in your wallet)?

greylin resort '13








It's amazing how fast-paced the fashion industry is. While prepping our closets and minds for fall, we are simultaneously selling pieces for Holiday 2012 and shooting for Spring 2013.These are some behind the scenes shots I took on set for Greylin's Resort 2013 lookbook. I was lucky enough to work alongside photographers and models to represent the designer's vision. From dresses to separates, this collection has it all in an array of  prints, pastels, and knits. Asymmetrical hemlines and cut outs in all shapes and sizes keep this collection young and sensuous in the most classy way. Start saving up now, ladies, because you're going to want to splurge on the upcoming resort collections to bring you out of your wintertime blues!
