A few months ago, Teen Vogue came over for a tour of my place. I had a blast with them here in Texas. I'm so excited the feature has gone live and I can share with you all.
CROP TOPPING
I do love a good crop top, and even though this American Apparel turtleneck one has become a bit ubiquitous these days I think it’s still a solid look with a simple black mini. Crop tops really make me wish I was not so flat chested but what can you do. They’re liberating when it is 100 degrees plus!

Skinny Antioxidant “Ice Cream”
I'm here for weekend at my mom's house to unwind, and after a trip to the gym we were craving a healthy reward. With a little experimentation we came up with a delicious treat. It has the consistency of ice cream with none of the bad stuff. Read on for our recipe!
THE RECIPE: Skinny Antioxidant Ice Cream
(Serves 3-4)
The insides of one ripe Haas avocado
One apple of your choice, cored and chopped
One ripe banana, peeled and in chunks
2 cups of frozen antioxidant blend fruit (strawberries, blueberries, pomegranate and cherry)
2 cups tightly packed mixture of greens (we used baby kale and spinach)
1 cup of almond milk
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
2 teaspoons hemp hearts
2/3 cup of ice cubes
1 tablespoon honey or agave (optional, only if you like it a little sweeter)
Put ingredients into blender and blend until smooth and creamy. You can add or subtract almond milk or ice cubes to get the right consistency.
Hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend! xo
My Best Skinnies: ANINE BING
There is damning evidence of my habit of uniform in this post…but its time I paid tribute to some of my favorite jeans. The Anine Bing charcoal grey skinny jean has been my go-to for about a year now. I've probably posted them fifty times. Definitely the most elongating jeans I own, the zippers make them so flattering and versatile!
I had to go for the light grey wash too! Such a great color.
And the leather version with zip pockets?? The best leather pants ever!
WHITE SANDS
These photos were taken a few months back outside of Marfa, TX…the memory is seared into my brain. The sand was practically frozen! The morning light in West Texas was amazing. I'm dying for another trip back.
The lace top and cardigan I'm wearing here were purchased in Tokyo years ago. I believe the line is called FurFur. The skirt I'm wearing is from my mom's old clothing line Atlantis Underground. It is called the 'Russian wedding skirt', one of her best sellers.

FLOWERS IN MY BASKET
I feel very summery with my bike basket full of flowers, wearing my new Isabel Marant sandals I snagged on sale. My sweatshirt in this heat, not so summery. It is my new favorite addition to my sweatshirt collection, so I had to wear it!

MY NEW FAVORITE JEANS
I was surprised with a little gift from Goldsign recently, and these jeans have fulfilled a long kept fantasy of mine. The pefect faded classic wash, a flattering high waist, and a cute cropped cuff with selvedge. They are on sale here. I'm in New York at the moment and I have worn them every day!
