One of my favorite holidays, the 4th of July, is just around the corner. I love finding the perfect red white and blue ensemble to rock while biking to the parade, hopping from barbeque to barbeque, and watching fireworks. Here are some fabulous patriotic picks for those of you still looking for perfect Americana pieces.

Hope you all had a lovely Presidents' Day weekend! I know I did, because I got to spend the day with my mommy in beautiful Pasadena. We checked out the Barney's Warehouse Sale (which was pretty picked over, but she found a great dress and now I know to go the very first day), bought some new fabrics in the garment district, and found a few great things at Anthro. And then we got to stay at this fabulous hotel for the night:
The Langham Huntington Hotel was beautiful and built in the twenties and best of all, full of pink! I had to nab a few of the pens from our room because they were just too adorable.

I had such a lovely time and I cannot wait for my grandmother to find a place in Pasadena this spring because that means I'll get to head up there a lot more often! 

Also, look how cool these fabrics are that I picked up! I cannot wait to make shorts and skirts and dresses and more with them!


How was everyone else's long weekend?

A Very Merry Christmas

I hope all of you had wonderful days yesterday. I know I did! Seventy degrees and not a cloud in the sky here in Southern California! After gifts were unveiled and a lovely brunch was served, we hung out poolside eating crackers and brie all afternoon. I know some people dream for white Christmases, but honestly, I love my sunny and bright Christmas!
