How would you describe your style? I’m equally inspired by 70’s bohemia style and grunge from the 90’s. I like to switch it up day to day, and then somedays I even mix the two. I love to pair something pretty like a long flowy maxi dress with something super tough like a leather jacket and motorcycle boots. oh, and side note- i'm kinda obsessed with Bridget Bardot- she's the ultimate boho babe for me. her hair is inspiration enough!

Favorite item you own? my favorite item i own is a vintage leopard fur coat i bought from the popular consignment boutique, Decades in LA. i feel like a million bucks when i wear that coat and i almost never put it down out of fear something might happen to it. it's kind of obsessive.

Who are your favorite designers? Some of my favorite designers: i love so many designers for so many diff reasons. on the lux end, i love marchesa for eveningwear, i love isabel marant and alexander wang for ready to wear, chanel hands down for accessories (im a big chanel collector), i'm inspired by the runways each season at Balmain, i love the effortless chic of Michael Kors & Ralph Lauren, and then in terms of vintage designer clothing it's a toss up between Lanvin, Dior and YSL. The part B to this question would be the designers i currently favor in my realistic and affordable wardrobe: i love a lot of aussie labels like sass & bide, one teaspoon, minkpink and stylestalker; jbrand, siwy and blank denim are my go-to denim labels; i'm obsessed with Planet Blue's (in santa monica) private label Blu Moon and their tshirt line Blue Life; i'm also kind of obsessed with Spanish Moss Vintage's private label American Gold.
